    fixed a indicator from when someone hit my bike yesterday, off for a ride and the bike stopped. got a short somewhere that's draining the bat fast as. took out indicators and headlight fuses and rode the bike using hand signals to get home.

    i will speak with the brokers at work and get some info. the issue with bikes/cars and the like, all have quarantine inspections (AUD and NZ have the most strict quarantine in the world). the cleaner the better before they ship, less time for quarantine and cheaper. when you start getting shipping doc's and bills from the agents, give me a yell and can check out if they are ripping you and give you pointers to make it cheaper. also, the bikes made USA or Japan?

    Pulled out the shims that need changing with the buckets... I need a lot of shims, most of them are the same so I can't change them around at all, even the Bandit ones aren't what I need lol. Shim swap anyone?

    Front tyre is a 100/80/17, the correct size... The rear is a 140 :headbang:

    At least I only have to buy 1 tyre

    @Grasshopper picked them up from Sydney, along with another alfa romeo. That makes 6 of them now.

    He needs the discs and I can use the front tyre, the rear tyre can be a spare

    Not my bike but the unexpected reward for helping a fellow rider stranded near my place get his BMW 1100 back home in my trailer after he lost clutch function.

    Having been stranded myself in the past, I would have done it for nothing!

I tried some fresh fuel and I have flames coming out the pipe, carby clean tomorrow night :)
