  1. Thanks for the positive comments.

    Still going and looking well, turned over 130,000km last month while doing the Oxley with mates. 

    The only worn part that needs replacing badly is the VTR lower forks as they are worn beyond service, hard to find in good condition.

    Ive never ridden the putty. We should go for a ride sometime.

    I'm always up for a ride, The Putty/Wolombi/Old road loop is pretty good, ot just an early morning ride up the Putty to the old truck stop, an old bloke has set up a wood fired BBQ there and cooks up bacon and egg or snags in a roll with a pot of coffee always brewing, breakfast of champions.

  3. No more than any other twisty road when all the idiots come out.

    During the week it's empty, and if you get up early you mostly have the road to yourself.

    A lot of the tight stuff has been recently resurfaced and its bloody good.

    That’s just gorgeous! 

     

    Who took the photo? Very good eye. 

     

    The spot is known as Eddie's corner, lots of photographers head there as it's a great motorcycle haunt.

    Its in a gully, so the sun disaperas over a ridge from around 1PM. The lighting is always good (no harsh sun).

    Its the third bend in a line of about six. Apex was about 6m back and is followed by a right hander, I'm already standing the bike up to drop it right.

    One of the best roads near my place. During the week I have the road to myself.

    Yet another photo of your's that I really like. Well done.

     

    I see you are lined up for a ferry excursion. Caught my eye because all my long trips start with a 90 minute ferry ride.

     

    Thanks mate  

    I have three different ride loop options from my place, going the back way to avoid traffic and staying on twisty roads involves using a ferry for all of them  

    All my ferry rides are only 5 minutes though,just river crossings.

    I can't complain about that  

  6. Yes, I got it modified at a local motor trimmer.

    I got the rear bump closer to the front, riders seat a bit lower with slippy material so I can move around, and the rear seat in red with high grip material so the wife doesn't slide around.

    What's the difference between the VTR1000 and the SP1/2? I'm still toying with purchasing an SP2. Cheers.

     

    There is actually not much in common between a VTR and an SP1 . 

    SP1 has shorter stroke, fuel injection, gear driven cams, UD forks, different swing arm and rear suspension, different frame, much better brakes, and the list goes on.
