    Welcome back mickle. 

    How is me old nemesis ( chinky ) going?

    Received a call from China this morning. He and mickle are usually together and up to no good on their tourers riding the high country. He had a health scare a couple weeks ago but is on the mend. He says hello.

    Gday Mick

    Good to hear from you mate. Glad you got away to the snowies but shame it wasn’t in the old group. You’re also on a fatboy and not on an ultra? Hope you’re good.

    Yeah all good here mate, Blew the engine on the Anniversary CVO a couple of weeks ago a lifter shit itself and destroyed the whole engine taking out the case with it, just looking at a 20k repair bill.

    Hey Mickle, sorry to hear about the donk, bloody lifters are maintenance items in the 110's, about to change mine again, if it ever grenades I'll buy a new S&S engine for it.

    I have gone the easy path with a 131 Harley crate engine mainly because of it being a CVO although they don't make the 131ci in Granite the black and chrome will still match the gearbox.

    Welcome back mickle.

    Maybe I am speaking out of school but maybe not, China is just getting over a heart attack we were on a trip around the Snowies and he was complaining of heartburn for 24hrs but as they say best to get straight to the hospital and get it checked out.
    He rode 500kms back into Melb with severe pains in his chest and had 3x stents inserted in his chest while I was broken down on the side of the road with the blown up CVO.
    On a good note he is doing fine resting at home after spending a week in the hospital dodging COVID.

    That doesn't sound like much fun. 
    Tell him I wish him all the best.

    Aye Mickle, not outta school, just goes to show what a tough friggin prick is the China..wish him well too.
    50 kms of fun, then kaboom, hope the cunts that did the work are good for a 131, which I reckon would be an absolute fucken barrel of fun.
