See that Braaap Motorcycles have gone into receivership, interestingly a few months ago a private equity firm sent me a prospectus on Braaap. The founder/owner is a "colorful character "who has been previously convicted of fraud and involved in motorcycle rebirthing..all this on the back of being voted Young Australian of the year. Creditors are owed over $1m.

And along the way he picked up Young Australian Entreprenuer of the year. Seeing that entrepreneur once meant the manager or promoter of a theatrical production, I'm sure the show will go on. He'll be back in some dodgy business or other long before his customers forget about the money they lost on undelivered paid for orders.

Just out poking around, running back roads out of Cooyar, after spending an hour or so sitting in a big shed having a yarn with my frame making mate. Went west to the Bunya Mts, coming back east cut across to Mt Binga, another dirt back road I've never ridden before.

No need to be, they're pretty easy to get although they have held their value surprisingly well. Asking and getting being 2 different things of course.

OK, just taking the piss there.
Afternoon was low 30s, was carrying a flanno rolled up behind the seat, didn't need it at all.
Got home just as Skippy was coming out to play. Went down to 12° by 3am last night though.

The real thing to be envious of is that from Mt Binga north to Blackbutt is undulating good condition bitumen full of curves with 80 kph advisory speed signs. You don't have to do that of course.

"The beast" is right !
If they weren't so ugly , I would have one in the shed .
Interesting to hear your comment on ease of riding - good to know .
I don't get the current bug eye insect looking trend these days .
My 950 adventure was considered ugly when it came out, but it was designed to race Dakar .

Now this one isn't mine, saw it in Caboolture today, but it's the only one of these I've seen that I think looks good. And all the owners done is an elegant bob job on the back mudguard, put on fat T bars, small indicators and slipon mufflers. Looks much better.
