    Another one here agreeing that there's only one reason to stop in Yass, and its not the maccas

    Boorowa "Stop Revive Survive" for a marie biscuit & cuppa tea with the locals is fine with me


    BRING ON FRIDAY!!!

    I'm a bit nervous cause I haven't had a last minute panic about anything, or had anything go wrong with the reassembly of the car......

    Great pub at Yass.......

    Just spent 9 hours cleaning my car as it had 10 weeks worth of workshop dust and crap all over it. My poor old front bar has seen better days but other than that, it's come up a treat.

    If someone has a spare CB, could I borrow it for the trip down?

    Im still missing one of my grey CBs from last cruise. Anyone have mine with MS on the back? You can borrow one of mine Ross....or buy a fixed unit and 2 huge whip arials to bolt onto your bullbar!.

    Might have your car on the road???? What are you up to Shano??

    It'll be done, there is rarely anything that money and late nights can't overcome.

    A simple clutch upgrade is turning out to be a bit more work than planned due to the good old Dellow parts not wanting to play ball.

    Turned down the bearing carrier last night so that is sorted, clearanced the bellhousing etc etc. Just got to pick up a release bearing today and then I can reassemble and setup everything.

    I should have been driving it by last night if it weren't for the few small issues

    Steve, If it happens to be an alternator problem, I have 2 (maybe 3) spares............

    Yep it's running and extremely clean. I on the other hand is totally ruined, my back, legs, shoulders, lets just say, my whole body is screaming at me.......

    Too early to say, as the final tune starts tomorrow, but a very basic tune at 26 psi was around the 280 rwkw mark, which was what it was before.

    Final tune tomorrow as the Autronic is now installed, new battery as the one I have now is way too big, fuel reg and other bits to be mounted to the engine bay, otherwise I won't pass scrutineering.

    I'm sore because I spent 9 hours yesterday cleaning it, plus I'm fat and old......

    What's Mont 24?
