Huh? The excess is paid after the repairs (upon collection of your vehicle). I still say get the insurer to get stuck into them. Thats what you pay them for.

Justin did put a reso in, but the noise between 2,000-3,000 is a tad annoying (can't talk to anyone in the car). Cruising and accelerating (mildly hard) it sounds sweet (inside the car that is). I'm also thinking of replacing the resonator with a hi flo muffler instead. I'm also thinking of fitting the Ohlins coilovers while I'm at his shop, if he doesn't mind me doing that while the car is on the hoist. I'll give him a call now.

Does your car also fluctuate in its idle sometimes sitting at the lights? ie revving up and down 200rpm or so?

If it wasn't before, it is now

Thats it You can still be quite creative with ideas for personalised plates

Get the ball rolling by notifying your insurance company first. They will then contact the 'arrogant prick's' insurer and things wil move then.

Does that mean you'll pick him up at 10.00pm? If not I can do it. Just let me know. Stag goes back to Everlast on the Sat morning. The cabin noise is a little too much for me Might also fit up the Ohlins coilovers while I'm at it

PM received mate. If Madaz can't pick you up about 10pm, I'm sure I might or someone else here. I need to check with the missus tonight, make sure there are no plans I forgot about. But other than that, I can collect you. Are you stay at the Holiday Inn on Hindley St in the city? Can drop you off there too. If I can't I'm sure someone else will be next in line ... right guys?

And lets all hope they're smart enough to at least orientate the strip west-east.

Still got my numbers on keys for both the black S2 RS4 and the silver S1 RS4.

No. Must be like: ABCDE-1 ABCD-12 ABC-123 AB-1234 A-12345 for it to be personalised. Otherwise its a custom for something like A-1.

The noise emitted will be the biggest hurdle. But there are ways around it. I just hope this new strip allows even runs for motorbikes too. I always got frustrated with watching the same cars run thru 2-3 times before the bikes got to play. We pay the same as the car entries, and we're quicker anyway! Cars would get like 10-15 runs on a busy night, and we got 5-6! On a good night we'd get maybe 9. We always had arguments with the officials on this one many times

In the past I've had: UNVME-2 MYTLR-1 EVILR-1 now (for the Stag): RRS-250

Who's joking?

I guess so. If thats not the normal write up, then I got lucky

We'll still be out cruising no doubt. Perhaps someone could swing past and save you a taxi fare?

I know that. I was answering the Q that the 1000cc is an F4 not a Brutale.

Guess we'll see you out there then ... all the way from QLD

Drove it around for a bit last night. Prob a little on the noisy side in cabin, but I'll see if I can live with it. Yep, already had flames shoot out of it for me too. Startled a rex driver last night too. Yummy!

Got nothin but respect for ya then Sled. I've been riding almost 19 years. Had two majors. The last one was single vehicle, got caught out by the road conditions at under 60kph. It happens. And 'yeah' I've picked up on the 'defensive riding' skills over the years. Track days help alot too with regards to rider-bike relationship and knowing what you can and can't do in an emergency. I've got my GF and 9yo to think about, but they fully encourage me to ride. Cam (9yo) even came to my hospital bedside when I broke my shoulder and asked when we could go riding again. I've explained the full risks and all to him, but he wants to ride. Tracy would rather him learn early by me, than jumping on a bike later in life with no experience. They've seen how happy it makes me to be riding, and they fully support that and want to get involved too. Even lying in hospital talking to my biker mates who came to visit, they saw how close our community is. I've taken Cam dirt bike riding and encouraged him to get the bike out of shape, just to feel what it can do and when the point of no return is, because you don't get that luxury on the road.

Then I'm obviously blessed to have paid $54. I'll keep it quiet now

'Custom' plates are $200 odd a year, but 'Personalized' plates are a one off fee. JZS147 should fall into the category of personalized shouldn't it? But RIS 705 gets my vote anyway. I just got myself RRS250 for the Stag.

I've rear ended two cars before. All were minimal damage, having been from a stop to taking off and the cars in front suddenly stop again. Once was when my ex-wife was talking to me at a set of red lights. She is deaf, so I have to look at her to talk to her. Well you can see how it happened. Took my eyes of the road for one second to answer her. Second time, same thing again! I stopped talking to her after that. Wonder if that led to the marriage failing Its only fair to blame the ex

:banana:

Sorry, but I did only pay $54. Don't know where the $98 (or even $140) is coming from? You guys are getting ripped.
