What model Duck is that on the left ? Looks in concourse condition to me
Recon he should enter it in the 4V section , if he could beat you last year with that
rusty old pile of bolts  he has a chance this year.
Not that knowing the judge would have anything to do with it  [roll]


Six95 and what tricks have you been up to this year ? Rear wheel on a treadmill to get more than 5k on the clocks [laugh]

Not much Dez.  [laugh]
I've managed to ride it to the servo for a rego inspection and once to work.
But I have shoe-horned a 5.5" rear wheel and 180 rear tyre into it along with a Hyper 1100 oil cooler, so that's my excuse for not riding. Been trying to source a donor OEM wheel and cooler for a while, but now have settled for a pretty sub standard 06 ST3 rim.

So if the weather is good I'll be there, along with my dismal ODO reading.

Hi. I’m Troy McClure. You may remember me from such self-help tapes as “Smoke Yourself Thin” and “Get Some Confidence, Stupid!”
NYTimes: "...highlights of his global tour include encounters with Nelson Mandela, an 800-year-old demigod and a dildo collector."

Congrats Brian.

2 valve class ... hmm can't really complain, the winner did at least clean his bike - a stock standard 1100 with termis. Thought Dez's bike would have been more worthy (didn't clean it ... yeah right, those white wheels obviously clean themselves).

Good to catch up with Brett (and the kids), Brian, Paul, Dez, Luba and Pat.

Great to see at least a few of the old gaurd at the concourse  [thumbsup]
Lots and lots of people ,sunny day good vibes dogs and good looking Ducati's
great turnout for a worthy cause hope they made lots of coin for the spinal unit.

Congrats to Brian ......... but really its about time he moved into the modified section  [laugh]

Congrats to old mate who won the 2V but really 3700 ks on a 3-4 year old bike  [roll] maybe I don,t understand
the judging criteria but thats a new bike in "showroom" condition not a bike that stands the test of time and elbow grease.
Mark REALLY your having a go at my clean wheels  [laugh] I needed  8) sunnies looking at your shiny rims  [cheeky]

Well that's down to the Boss ... and she said she didn't get them finished - but it is not a bad plan ... bright enough that you can't get too close for proper inspection.

I also remember a CERTAIN bike getting done over by a low k'd one only ridden around the block to the local brothel once a week.    [roll]      Was between a rock and a hard place i say.    [thumbsup]   My mate Captain Thunderbolt soon stitched him up.      ;D
