Kiwifruit, im also sick of demolishing deck/ pool. Going ok. Anyone know best way to get steel stumps with concrete footings out? Bobcat would be easiest but would break pipes etc.Is jackhammer the only option?

What did impress me today was fuel consumption.

I was in Sports Mode / Full boost, I wasn't riding THAT hard but was on the speed limit or a little over everywhere. Some highway cruising but lots of twisty mountain / country roads on the brakes and on the throttle constantly.

The bike only takes 19 ltr's but I still had 1 bar showing after 325K's / 202 miles.

The Bobcat/jackhammer combo should do it :8:

Thanks Andre. Looks my option. Tony, did you come back from Murwillimbah up over range, thru border? Always a fave ride for me. The Raceway road near Advancetown was amazing back in old days, maybe too police heavy now.

Mate of mine had his prostate removed a fortnight ago. So won't be riding for a while. I picked up his BMW K1600 GT from the BMW Dealer the other day. OMFG 320 kg bike (two up add 180 kg) that accelerates and sounds like a Ferrari. Straight line is unfucking believable. Cornering is another story, I have only ridden it to Canungra and back so far. It has every accessory you can think of  :onya:

Reminds me of my dad's  Burgman 650 SCOOTER :facepalm: I had the pleasure of riding it for a couple of years as he had a hard time maneuvering it in the shed.

I chased one of them through the Black Forest back in May time, they corner bloody well with a rider who's used to the buggers.

Ride it down to Jindy if your coming Chris - reckon she'd be comfortable!!

GSXKING

Actually Beaker my R1200RT is more comfortable  :onya:. I've just ridden them back to back.

I've just started a new job so won't be riding down to Jindabyne. Maybe next year  :hat:

K1600 GT

The 1600's do go VERY well.
They aren't huge horsepower but there's sooooo much torque.
They pick their feet up surprisingly well for their size!

If you want to put it up against a little bike under 1000cc let me know...  ;)

Good pics Tony, showing off our lush green pastures. Some nice bikes amongst that lot.
