Sutton rd which is Fairburn track is a bitch cos you have to be a member.

I rode the brindies for about 15 years without any legal trouble.

Larbert rd near braidwood is good if you like sand. $10 or $15 to ride last time i was there.

Captains flat has a track, theres one near Yass, and Kowen forest is pretty big(rego only, cops)

But the best is the Brindabellas.

Uriarra rd has few good spots to park, like Blue range hut or Blundells flat(my fav)

Or on the Cotter rd theres Peirces creek or Murrays corner

The forest goes from the cotter to tumut, its big and has lots of awesome mountains.

Get a map and the only limit is your fuel range.

Have fun, stay safe. Dont ride alone in the bush.

Ps i sold my bike if you want my maps n stuff give us a pm

The shitbox bike can be the best fun you ever had.

I had as much or more fun in 2 years of shitboxing as i did in 12 years of supreme KTM.

Get one for sure!

Gloves and kneepads too, ha ha i remember the first time...but its so much fun you cant stop.

:banana:

I still have nice armour and gloves, a work stand, those cool stick-on goggles with heaps of lenses, boots, tie downs, etc....

If you need it i dont use them anymore, good stuff ill sell real cheap.

Ps new age 4strokes are VERY expensive to maintain. get a two banger or a normal 4stroke.

Was about to say the same thing re- 4 strokes,

The WR's are pretty good but anything more than a couple of years old = rebuild time

But in saying that most of the 4 stricken enduro's are pretty good

The mx'ers are rubbish, the current crf250 has a 10hr rebuild time on the top end and 25hr for piston and rings

My brother has a 2010 yz250 2 stoke, he rides the shit out of it and has replaced the spark plug and a brake lever or 2

My dad scored one of the super rare 09 yz250wr road legal mx'er and has had no problems either

But if you do want cheap my brother is selling an 88 klr250 for 200 bucks, but needs some work

The only reason why I'm not interested in a new 2-stroke is that they're not registrable (someone confirm this).

I wouldn't ride an ancient POS hahaha. Had a '93 or thereabouts KDX250 few years back that I would ride around the back of Conder/Banks, that was about the limit of 'shitness' I would deal with.

Wouldn't mind my cousin's KTM 525EXC I rode some years ago, that thing was f**king insane!

Plenty of new 2 strokes than can be registered

Just no Japanese bikes, so you will need to look to the land of euro

KTM, TM, Husaberg, GASGAS etc all do 2 stroke enduros, and if you want spastic power most of them do a 300 2stroke too lol

Yeah euro 2 strokes are really good.

I had a KTM 360 for ages, that thing could pull your arms off up to 120kph,

more grunt than i could use with my light weight (70kg) and rear tyres were used up in about 400ks

The big two strokes sound awesome with a pipe. Top handling and ergonomics too.

Yeah I love oilers!

Found a place to go, binacrombie which is an hour north of g-town, will take the gf's parents kombi which has a tow bar and make a weekend of it including trout fishing etc

Their single track looks the goods but simple enough that the DR will handle it but will chuck the knobbies on before I go

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
