    Being that its winter i thought i would start a thread on what everyones plans were for their bikes during the maintenance months.

    im installing andrews cam-ultima carb-exhaust and fat ass(the later two still to be decided on brand).

    im also buying a bike hoist, im sick of bending over, thats for strippers and kangaroos.

    fuck,,,buy the time we got 5k's from home it was fucking hamering,,,I'm pissing myself laughing siting up on the crown of the road avoiding aquaplaining on sheets of water,,,giving the cook a pat on da leg now and then,,,,the water just got to my jocks 2ks from home,,he he,,,,we got home and the cook jumped of and up the garage door,,,we went inside we striped down to the jocks and marched across the lawn to da house,,,,me still giggleing??? so was my cook,,,she' ok.    we got good neighbours too!!!!!

    Riding as well.

    Look for OK days like today in Adelaide, then rug up and ride.

    Don't ride much in the rain anymore as I am a lazy cnut and cbf spending hours cleaning the bike.
