    2009 Iron Butt Rally - Official Daily Reports

    Agreed. Kangaroo = Deer. Here in Oz...you could ride across the paddock (Nullabor Plain - between West Australia and South Australia) and not see a single one. Come back 24hrs later...and they will be out in plague proportions. I have done the paddock many a time in a car, and the slowest one...

    2009 Iron Butt Rally - Official Daily Reports

    Thanks Dale. Your response was spot on. My comment was made from a state of disbelief (a new state in Australia). It's just so hard to comprehend. I was not trying to incite, or flame the thread. I just wish he could tell us what his thoughts were. We rode with him, we cheered him, we coaxed...

    2009 Iron Butt Rally - Official Daily Reports

    I have to say it....I cannot believe the "helmet" theory. But...Dale, I appreciate the effort you have made to keep us all informed. Yes we do...and Davo was a serious advocate of ATGATT...his prepapration for LD rides was nothing short of phenomenal. He studied the science of the body vs...

    Throttle Spring Unwind

    Gunny for spring mod + G2 The spring mod DOES NOT weaken the return action of the throttle. It provides relief to the rider because you do not have to fight the throttle which is fighting against the rider to return itself back to the stop. The G2 is the cream on top. Awesome feel through the...

    I take it that you don't need to show your passport to get out of the US and into Canuck territory, but it is required to come back in? Go Davo!

    Who belongs to these wheels?

    Thanks Alan, I remembered that it was a female....but damned if I could find the post here. Well done on such a quick response. Looks like there is a lot of work there....might just give it a go.

    Who belongs to these wheels?

    Hi gang, Long time no speak etc.....(been busy) I got to thinking of some additional bling to the FJR....and remembered that I had saved the following images from a thread some time ago. Images have a date stamp of 2007. Question is....who's wheels are they? Were they powder coated or...

    Center Stand

    Not wanting to argue the point....but I would have thought turning the bars to full left lock would make the process even more difficult. IMHO, the wheels should be "lined" up north/south......makes "pulling" the bike back onto the centre stand easier. However...each to their own. :(

    Jump out of a perfectly good plane at 14,000 ft?

    Kris, I thought your father taught you better than that. You do not jump out of a perfectly serviceable aircraft! Good luck...and as Iggy said....120 mph is about all you'll get as far as top speed is concerned.

    McCruise control unit

    Isn't the MCCruise made in Australia (Melbourne)? Your reference to New Zealand is a bit like saying if you are from New York, that's close enough to be Canadian. As for the instructions...here in OZ....we measure twice, cut once. If you are going to do a job right, do it properly. Glad to see...
