That dirt bikes similar to what im looking for.. still not sure if i want the full motox version or trail spec yet

When we going on SAU vic road bike ride?

Give me a week or two to get acquainted with my ride and we'll go for a ride. Charlie needs to get another road bike and she can join us...

All that happened was a few Americans ripped off the Jap VIP from the '80s, Westernised it, profited massively.

And now the "trend kiddies" or "band wagoners" have their knickers in a knot over someone else profiting...

Absolutely hilarious.

Still haven't read the thread, cause I can't be bothered reading anything to do with "stance", but are they complaining about the new people who will see their trend and then copy it off them? Doesn't this happen just by driving on the roads to show off their "stance"? Morons.

Nice, how does the RX-8 drive?

Always liked the interior, from what I remember from sitting in one at the Melbourne Motor show many moons ago :D

its not a 'powerful' car, but its enough for her..

drives really well and revs out to 8500 factory...

interior is awesome, with the recaro buckets as well..

she loves it

inb4 Mohsen tries to get a work exemption for an R1, then sells it to buy a spate of shitty bikes and is convinced they're broken all the time, all the while spending good money on pointless mods and acting paranoid about the police defecting his standard 250cc learner bike

fkn lol, but fyp brah

lmfao ric.

not helping charlie!

Srsly dude, the license test isn't hard... if anything the longer you leave it the more bothersome and costly the process will become, recently there have been articles on how the tests aren't strict enough etc. Plus it's not as if you need to buy a bike straight away. Just get your license to begin with!

Two things that usually kill people on bikes, being their own stupidity/inexperience or other drivers on the road. The latter can't always be avoided but there are certain ways to ride in traffic that improve your chances of surviving :thumbsup:

Hella flush bike.

Don't get me started on speedboats Rimon, lol, father always had them when I was a kid so that could easily come back into my life and I don't need any more expenses. Jet skis are pretty f**king awesome though...anything can tow them, buy a POS Commy or R31 for a grand.

Korean bike, not the best quality but have come a long way and look awesome, especially for the dollars. Would be perfectly suitable for a bike on your restrictions, probably what I would get if I did it again. Don't sound half bad either.

-_- That's why I was referring to the Suzuki and not the R1 with that particular change, I agree that chrome would not match the R1, which is why I said rim tape.

You wouldn't bother colouring the rim on something that's not a show bike because in all likeliness your rims are going to be scratched up by the mechanic at the shop next time the tyres are changed. This obviously doesn't matter with polished rims because there's nothing to scratch off but painting something is just going to mean you either need to not ride the thing, change the tyres yourself or be prepared for a redo every time you change the rubber.

oic. I am much confuse.

Women speak in riddles at the best of times ^^^ much better explaination

:D

Seriously though if the tyres can't be changed without scratching rims... Or a properly prepped/painted setup that will last against track work... Surely possible?

Can be done with car rims. Can't see it being much different

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
