Yeh i, so keen ive given my trike a full makeover new fork seals new back an front wheel bearings and seals new gear oil new fmf shorty silencer brand new ohtsu tires and gave her a spray can rebuild lookin smick actually.And found some pretty scary top tripple clamp prob which was an easy fix but lets just say im well glad i found it lol.allways felt a bit of a sway in top gear flatout found it lol.Should be alltogehther tonight,

I cant believe it though i went to the rta and the silly woman was going to cancel my rego because it said cycle on it instead of atv!!I got in a massive argument to the point the manager asked me to stop getting stroppy or ill be asked to leave, well after just giving in to them and letting them put it down as an atv (i didnt care i just wanted my reg to be done) for a whole $10 extra and 40 mins later i got it done. but heres the funny part the manager rang me the next day apolagising and asked me to come back as they had mad a mistake and that i was right they are a cycle.Let me tell you it felt so good walkin back in there haha not everyday they accept they are wrong.It made my day.

Im actually thinkin about gettin some reg for my 90 so dad can tag along well see.

The 3 250's I registered today were regoed as CYC. I took in an old rego paper too though just in case they wanted to disagree.
When I was asked where my old plate was though and I told them I had lost it they made me ring the police and report it and get an event number etc. what a nightmare.

my trailer is loaded and my gear in the car, finish work and head up there. So the meet time is 3pm right?

I've got to grab a beach pass on the way in and put a little air in my tires.

Troy (Ylwgtr ) is already up there with an R and a Tecate. I saw him about midnight when he came and picked up his rego. Seriously big effort from him driving from Melbourne to come riding with us.

Just fixed oil the leak in the 70, re-tightened the head/barrel, new o-rings, put new rego label on and got rid of the twist throttle and modified and put back the original thumb throttle. Then the "profanity removed" rains come.
What's it like up Stockton way?
Does it look like its going to pass?

UPDATE:
Well yep, it passed and then come again and then passed and then came back and then eventually stayed away. But all in all it was a great day again.

Anyway, my Australia Day started last night with a spot of fishing on Stockton Beach near the Signa while watching the sun go down over Newcastle.


Sun going down over Newcastle and the Signa.



Full moon fishing



and Today back to the Signa with my old trusty ATC70



Just hanging with the big boys



Watching the sand drags



And then back in the car park



The Loaded Weapon. LoL

H100....hmmmm, thats a coincidence.....I'm watching this on ebay...

I rekon it would go into a 70 without too many dramas. Mod a cr80 expansion chamber and jet the carbie up a bit an I think it would go pretty well.....they had 12hp stock, so a bigger carb and proper exhaust would surely help wake it up a bit.

Yep looked at doin this after by bro bought one to get around peppy little engine to.They are some what a laydown already. would go good i reckon.Another perfect engine would be a dt200 the barrells on them lay very forward.Watercooled though so radiator would have to be on the forks.and starting issue to.
