General Discussion / Closure of Stanmore MX Track
« on: December 04, 2011, 07:57:24 PM »
Can anyone shed any light on the closure of Stanmore MX (Brisbane) track last week? What happened to the promised replacment venue? Is this another case of bike clubs being shafted by local councils?

For Sale / WP 4054 FORK
« on: October 01, 2011, 11:05:01 AM »
I have A set of WP 40mm forks with triple clamps. Outer tubes re-anodised (black) 3 rides ago, along with clamps (gold). Stainless bolts in clamps, has mount plate for mid 80's honda CR, plate can be removed, leaving the block that locks the brake drum for earlier models. The fork is non externaly adjustable and there is a little bit of thread damage on the stem (i had no problem with it).
My reason for selling is I want to go to O.E KYB fork with external adjustments and I am well experienced with set up of these forks.
These forks would look great on any dirt bike, my asking price is $450. There are pics on my page, email or call me on 0418973092 and I will send you pics.

« on: September 21, 2011, 08:28:55 PM »+1 for the '89 YZ250.
Probably the favourite race bike I've had. It has such good bottom end and mid range that it is a pleasure to ride on a MX track. And up top it hauls ass as well as I found out at Nepean Dirt Track. Even running standard gearing it lost very little on the straights against the 500's.
My second pick would be my recently aquired '88 YZ490. Mostly because it is something different to all the red and green bikes that make up most of the open class
Cheers

My cousin has A decent '88 KX250. The first time I rode it it was bloody horrible...Might have had something to do with the bald tyres, long range fuel tank & A seat that was so soft the plastic base almost crushed my spine when it kicked up in some braking bumps. I convinced him 2 spend A few $ on it, pretty decent now. I'd race it no probs, way more top than my '88yz. Have heard horror stories bout them, but you hear bad things bout most old mxers.

I can't pass my '88 YZ250, just A few more tweaks...Taking the W.P fork off, fitting KYB USD set with alledged "works" internals & working on A bit more top end pull. I love the thing! Had A '86 CR125 which was bloody fast too...I'd put some pics up if I knew how...
