What are you trawling for?
Not another trackie, the 2 stroke type  [cheeky] [cheeky]

Nah, the RZ500 has been in the shed for 15 years.  It will need a complete strip down and I don't have time/space/funds for it. 

The S4 instead is in for a major service, needing also some extras like a volt regulator and 3 x rockers (stupid crap chrome).

I was looking for various things and probably will purchase only 1 or 2...  [roll] twin headlight, carbon belly pan, new indicators, brake pads, suspension settings, touch up paint, carbon radiator covers, clutch basket & disks... Not necessarily in that order and not all "must have"... just mucking about really, but some obvious ones I do have to acquire....

G'day all, Tony here.

Just purchased a 1 yo 695....its my first duke so I'm pretty excited about it! [thumbsup]

Rode it home the other day & parked it in the shed & have begun pulling it apart.  Have got a heap of bits coming from the USA so I'm hoping to have it back on the road in a few weeks so I can start enjoying it.

Are there many members here from SA?

Hi Vossy,

Yeah for sure.  It would be good to catch up & give me a few pointers & tips on the Duke.

I'm in the Adelaide hills near Nairne.  Now that the weather has finally come good I'm itching to get it back on the road.

Where are u in SA?
