Awesome day on the spur, can't ask for better weather.

Few f**khead cars crossing over the lines, but what can you do...

[Sunkist]

Lol more hands on. U wish brah

This isn't dancing bear

[dezz]

did you claim the kms on tax though?!

Cash jobs

[Birds]

This fruit isn't for you...

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

looking for evo is frustrating me

[Count Grantleyish]

Look at something else then?

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i want to buy an evo, so looking at other things will presumably be counter-productive...

let me rephrase...

looking for second-hand cars frustrates me

[Sunkist]

So buy a 10? They come in manual now

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

i HATE the look of them... even if i had the ca$h for a 10 i'd buy a 9

[Count Grantleyish]

Yep, frustrating stuff involved in buying someone else's problem...

[Count Grantleyish]

And Evo X is ugly.

[Sunkist]

Ditto. You just said you hated looking for second hand, and you want an Evo. Hence..

If you do find one though, look for rust. Look everywhere for rust. Not only on the rail, but in the wheel arches, and under the plastic bits. About 3 that I looked at were covered in rust, but I didn't find it until I was told where to look.

Look for ayc issues, oil level and lights etc.

Transfer case is a common leak as is the oil sump seal and the rocker cover seal is too..

Standard suspension usually leaks and knocks too.

To see if things have been changed in the engine bay, the original bolts have number 7 on the top.

Things I was told anyway

thanks for that man...

before i buy i'm gonna get a full inspection... probably from techsport or state roads.

I looked at one that was just out of my range that had a techsport inspection and i was impressed

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

this is why i am thinking of importing... can just give IM the $$$ and not spend my weekends looking at cars as it annoys me.

also, i know i might not save any $$$ or time, but in the end I will only ever have this time with my baby once and it's priceless

need to call aaron and have a better chat about it all

[Sunkist]

Yeh I had it inspected by two mechanics and sent racv to his house. He was rather pissed that I kept sending him everywhere lmao. But I was buying a car I wanted to make sure I was buying something good.

Speak to Aaron, or even northshore prestige in Sydney. Northshore is f**kig insane for quality, asked a few people to do inspections and they all said no need, the cars are 110% of the time perfect.

[llama_au]

Think I haven't looked in here for a month, assuming I haven't missed too much.

[UNR33L]

birds what bikes were you riding with? looks like a ninja 250 and something else?

Juliette you haven't missed much, mohsen is still mohsen, motorbikes, evos,

[Count Grantleyish]

Think I haven't looked in here for a month, assuming I haven't missed too much.

Main topics are motorbikes and evos, you ain't missing much.

[R-SPEC]

Lol, did you dance for them?

no

Rode to work today, no one looked at me

how do you carry your tools?

Awesome day on the spur, can't ask for better weather.

Few f**khead cars crossing over the lines, but what can you do...

do any of those mirrors work or is it just mine that are useless? always have to turn on the bike to look behind/blind spots might aswell take em off...

[UNR33L]

I rode my motard with mirrors off, they actually make a fair bit of difference and helpful kept on I reckon.

Maybe you can't see stuff through mirrors cos you're such a unit.
