Make the extension block with a mount for the bottom of a std length shock on it and increase the travel at the axle.

perhaps on the weekend ?
don't know if a woblly mob of strange faces might cheer this sod up a little ....but to present a few k bikes rumbling away out the front ....might just inspire some nice thoughts ?
don't know what "mum " will think ....(bl##dy motor bikes ...I told him so !! ) but could be a positive to the camaraderie for our fellow traveller .
on a k100 , or the 650?RicK G wrote:If you want some serious grunt low down advance the inlet cam 5° and an extra 4° on the ignition advance.
Glad to see you're still getting your kicks floyd, even if it is just redlining the Dyson.floyd wrote:....
Still cant really do anything useful though. Except ride mums 110,000rpm Dyson around the lounge room.

I know we K riders can have mental health issues (self included), but I'm just finding out how serious they can be!This is the route im thinking about currently (very loosely). Over the next while, while im generating funds once more, I shall also be studying Google Earth and plotting my self a veeeeery interesting route to be followed on the GPS. Im going to try and stay on dirt tracks, and avoid main roads as much as feasibly possible.
Anyways, heres the route: (MASSIVELY ambitious, I know)
- australia
- timor
- indo
- malaysia
- thailand/cambo/viet/laos
- burma
- india
- nepal
- india
- pakistan
- iran
- turkmenistan
- uzbecistan
- kazahkstan
- mongolia
- russia
- usa
- canada
- usa
- mexico
- central america
- south america
EPIC!

Bloody hell. It doesn't even merit a mention over here unless it's really bad. A piece of duct tape usually fixes that problem.charlie99 wrote:and yes a torn seat cover in almost all states is defiantly a defect .....

Shame to hear you copped a grilling Flloyd . such whimsical faults. I've been through three rego's with the same torn seat , I finally took Charlies lead and did a recent recover. Good to hear you are getting it sorted.Dai wrote:Bloody hell. It doesn't even merit a mention over here unless it's really bad.
