Penthouse at Bondi Irish?

Penthouse at Bondi Irish?

I was thinking Portrush.

[Tony Nitrous]

I have decided when I return to Oz I'm going to sell all my classic bikes and make a shit load of money.

I didn't buy any of mine as an investment, and in the past I've lost a lot of money buying and selling bikes, but prices have hiked here over the last 5 or 6 years.
I often look at GSXR11's or GSX1100's that are double or treble what I paid. Asking price isn't what they go for but I've been offered double what I paid for parts too. Prices are strong here for a seller.  It's not a bad time to be getting out.

Neither did I, but you can't keep them for ever, I've decided to spend it all on other things one bike is enough, sorry two, one in Oz and one in Ireland.

when I picked up my 14 I rode it 75miles home and it was really bad in the corners    so when i got home I checked the tyre pressure and both where down 10psi !!!!!! pumped them up and felt much better, but the front tyre was worn and squared off, so today had a new one fitted and its transformed the ride, bikes a joy to ride now

I lead a small group of select fools around the Peak District today. Was a great day with lovely roads and several pubs to prevent dehydration.

Group pic, with the best bikes fore n aft

Going through my spare wheels to put onto a bike.

I have 2 spare pairs of rims, and both pairs have nice looking tyres with good tyre depth.

Just thought I'd check the dates / age of the tyres.

First pair.... 2014 and 2015.

Maybe I'll use the second pair?

Second pair.... 2009 and 2011. 

Dhooo ! 

[Tony Nitrous]

Bought a key surround for a 2008 B-King.

Many years ago a numb nut "Suzuki Mechanic" broke it during one of its early services (you need to turn them before lifting) and the sneaky f#ck glued it back on.  I've continued to do the same since I found out as Suzuki show No Stock or Not Available.

Trying to put a few things right on the bikes I suffered the price and got one sent over from Revzilla in the USA.

Today mine just got a wash and a blow job. Lucky bike. Air blower much easier than chamois

[KiwiCol]

She looks lovely Grog. 

Mine got a wee ride, neighbours daughter turned 16 today, she got a scooter & her mum asked me if I'd show her how to ride it & give her some lessons sorta thing. Done ok, but very slow, 10 - 20Kph max, first time, so gotta take it easy to start with.

[Tony Nitrous]

Cleaning, measuring, making lists.
(Still waiting on some stuff to turn up,
think I have found someone to pain the wheels)



Got a heap of parts ready to start on the B-King, then the 1400 is next in the queue.

Blime what a workshop!!

Thanks, I'm still moving and changing a few things. I've built a second shed that's identical, another high roof 8m x 9m.  That one has a dividing wall and will have a "dirty" area so I don't saw, weld, grind, degrease etc around the bikes. This one will be the "clean" shed then.
