Thanks Troy  :good2:   
Don't thank me yet mate, we haven't seen any results. But it will be fun to find out what she's got in her, even tuned as we last discussed. :wacko3:

I'm happy with a clean running bike that makes all the right sounds, and doesn't smoke like a late night hooker. :)

Ray the more you write the worse you look, which sites were you looking at - just curious
First major bike in my life was a Mach III widow maker.
My Second permanent bike 1978 Z1R (owned since Dec 1977)
My Third permanent bike is the 89 FJ12 - nice and fast
Forth bike 89 FJ12 my totally standard workhorse
81 GPZ1100 hybrid - what a bike, built to sell but I can't part with it

No Bozo, just a tangled 'interweb'.

I'm sure it was a harmless forum of motorcycle enthusiasts who like big bore 80's rice burners.

Mind you, if it was the Fjowners forum we're in trouble....now, where's Klav when you need him?

   Of those attending, what type of work are you intending to do on your bikes? Anyone wanting to check valve clearances or other work that may require special tools? Let me know and I will bring along what I can to help out. Troy has a fairly good collection of tools so between us, we should be able to do anything needed.
   Regards, Pete.

Just checked out a route to Troy's and his place is down there somewhere, in the middle, to the right a bit,

I think  :scratch_one-s_head:
He's a bit further south than Kangaroo Valley, I'm sure

G'day Al, just as I was heading to the airport I spot you on your 11 heading for a pie! Lucky bugger!

Yep, I'm somewhere to the right across the river. Just where all those roos are  :sarcastic:

Next week I'll confirm with Simon re the dyno. He asked me to confirm with him a couple of weeks before the run. The only risk of his availability on Saturday is if he has to mind his daughter.
If he's unavailable we could probably arrange an arvo Friday with him.

   Let us know ASAP if it's a Friday arvo run so we can get there a bit earlier. We are planning on a lunch time arrival anyway.
Not long now mate.   :good2::drinks:

Maybe we could organise a sitter for his daughter  :biggrin:

Who's not having a dyno run and doesn't have a police record  :lol:

It got very windy and cool up the top at the Pie Shop but very mild down lower in Kangaroo Valley,
pity about the roadworks leading up to the hairpin at Cambewarra Lookout turnoff.
