Thank you. tangles

No probs then. Wasn't having a go ... I've already had a learner rider kill himself on an R1 50m from my house some years ago. Just showing some concern and upholding the law :bunny:

yeah nice bike mate, as roo said its not a good habit to go riding without the approved licence,it sounds like your being sensible though good on you. These days there arent that many riders that actually have experience and keep there road rules in check, the state has had an abundance of young lads going out and getting their bike license,which is great for us fellow riders,except when they decide not to listen to us riders that have been riding for as long as they have been born,we dont need dead riders,the cops already pick on us enough without making us more of a target.

Like others ive had my share at sitting by the side of the road holding somones pieces together,ive had enough of the wahoo guys, ride safe guys and keep it safe for others

Craig, I had to sell my dirt bike some time ago. I just kept busting myself up on tracks and jumps too often. It was worse than crashing at the race track (Mallala) :P

Nice old school KLX (?) you got coming. It'll have some awesome torque for wheelies! Was your previous ride a KX80?

NA KDX, 95 model.

prev. bike was KX 125, that thing was twitchy as all hell, scary at times!

this thing has been bored with bigger piston apparently, so we will see how she goes when it gets here

Yeah you're right ... KLX's and KLR's are 4 stroke. I saw the bike in the pic was a 2 stroke, but knew it wasn't a KX being the road-going version.

KDX ... but its forgiven. I don't like Kawasaki's much :)

BTW ... I thought the 125 had larger expansion chambers? Only reason I guessed it being an 80.

licence:

Full licence (restricted till jan next yr)

years riding:

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
