    Easy, you walk into a Kwak shop to get a oil filter for your GPZ750 and take a KLR650 for a spin.....find out they have a black old stock 14 model. Next minute your leaving your car in the carpark and the oil filter on the counter and riding a brand new bike home :)

    At it's finest! Nah i had looked at second hand dual sports over the last 6 months on Gumtree e.g V-Strom 650/1000s, KLR650, XR's, XT's, DR's and even a F800GS. But they all had their problems so i bit the bullet and made my first ever "new" purchase. As most of my riding is 90% road commuting to work and the occasional fire track the KLR650 is a good fit

    Dumped the water out of the R6 and replaced it with green 1/3 concentrate coolant. Bike was warming up a bit in the heat and traffic today (bloody country music festival brings all the f$%^wit drivers from around Australia right into Tamworth) and the fan was not coming on.

    Did you splice into the thermo switch on the radiator? Got a fuse in there at all?

    Yamaha 250cc 2 stroke
    Fitted the close ratio gearbox into the cases of the 1977 Yamaha IT250D Classic Dirt Track racer.
    Very pleased with this gearbox. About $100 including shipping from US and it has very low use and is excellent.
