PLEASE NOTE:
Some of the pics and info may be out of whack, working from my picture collection's dates.
Hadn't owned a bike since i Sold the XL1200C over Xmas, and had the 'itch the moment she left my shed...
Finally, had enough one day, asked the mrs for permission, and within a day, had a plan:
after seeing this for sale:
Rebuilt 110 engine, tuned to suit the air cleaner and exhaust(80 main jet)
custom airbrushed paint
custom rear shocks
Custom exhaust
Custom LED tail lights and indicators
Plan is to keep the std engine in her, rather than going to my usual 140cc+Lifan or similar, want reliability, but go wild with the rest, Apes, Suicide Shifter, Small SaddleBag somewhere, Seat Shave and custom re-cover
Sell the Forester, Fly to Emerald, and ride a Postie bike home, with a few detours, over the weekend(nearly 1000 kms at an avg speed of 80kph).
So I did...
Took the Friday off and,
Organized to meet the Subie buyer at Brissie airport, took him for a lap, he loved it, handed over the cash and drove home.
I got dropped off at the airport and had to wait 4 hrs for my flight to Emerald
When the plane finally took off, I was immediately assaulted by the lady snoring near by,
so I numbed the pain with a few Jimmy's
The decent into Emerald was gorgeous
More to come
