They have at least 10..maybe 15

I know it can be a bit much for the newbies to be shelling out loads of cash just to get started.

EDIT: nevermind :D

LOL!

Paul go to Broadmeadow any of the bike shops there will be able to help you, go the Frazer’s then have a look at Suzuki of Newcastle and compare prices.

Good luck.

Ryan

I was going to suggest that but I don't know the area that well.. Newcastle is just so far! :)

hey corinne, did you end up speaking to sydney city motorcycles about the sau discount? I remember you said you knew someone that worked there?

i called them up about a month ago, and the sau discount wasn't available

I've got a very Newbie sounding question but I am a newbie....(and I did a search but coudln't find anything)

I need to buy a helmet for Saturday....I am assuming any helmet I buy from a motorbike shop will be good enough as long as it is a full face...also what sort of money would i expect to spend...I assume all helmets sold in Aus are approved??

Anyone in Newcastle bought one up here recently, if so who from???

Sydney city motorcycles - i paid $80 for an open face one about 3 years ago. Does the job and my face doesnt get hot underneath it

shotgun going out first :happy:

will we progress up if we do good lap times or stay in the same group

Are you expecting to be fast? People will be moved as appropriate but we hope to get groupings as close as possible before the day starts.

Weather is looking good, at least for Southern Highlands min 2 c max 14c no rain clearing cloud.

Zed is looking good to make it. Doing lots of little things to it this week still.

Yo James, I've tried to get incontact with them but they have been lazy.. I'll give him a ring tonight and see what's the go.

Did you try quoting the account number as Jon said?

come to think of it, no I didn't try quoting any account number when i rung up about a month ago. I guess I should have read that thread a bit more thoroughly and asked for Andrew Cura. the person I spoke to didn't know what I was talking about re SAU discount.

Probably going to go in there on thursday to grab a helmet

gosh.

after reading this page im NEVER hiring a helmet.

next track day i can participate in, ill give SCM a visit.

you guys need any volunteers for help on the day?

im coming down to watch but if i can help anywhere let me know.

Hey you guys looking for helmets, there is a place at wetherill park (its actually a mower/dune buggy shop) that sells open face helmets for $65!!

Dave got one just before texi.... Im heading there tomorrow to get mine so il throw the details up then ;)

Quick question, really unimportant but a question anyways...

At the moment I have a choice of taking 2 front bars.

One is white like the rest of my car (probably because its the factory one that came with it ;)) but has a gash in the side of it and the indicator/fog light surround is non existant. Lights are intact

The other is black but is in almost perfect condition.

Do I go to the track this weekend with a white or black bra? :laughing-smiley-014:

.Perhaps saying bra instead of bar was intentional.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
