For Sale / PRESTON PETTY TONY D GUARDS

« on: May 09, 2016, 08:29:23 AM »

OK guy's, I am bringing in a bunch of Preston Petty Tony D front guards that will be here for CD12 at Conondale in June. By doing a bulk buy I can get them at a good deal and pass it on, the price will be about the $85 mark, if you buy direct from the US with postage you are looking at well over double that with the way our Pacific peso is. I will bring the white [Yamaha] and Yellow [Suzuki] in, if you want any of the other colours let me know. You can check out their website. I will also bring some of the white and yellow oval number boards, same thing, let me know so you don't miss out. These products are 100% the best, even many works riders used them on their bikes [Stephen Gall's 1981 YZ465 that won the Aussie title has one on it!]. ph 0412747729, cheers John.

Kawasaki / KX125 1991 KIPS VALVES

« on: June 17, 2015, 09:11:19 PM »

Does anyone know if the Kips valves are interchangeable on the 88/89 to the 90/91 models....90/91 is the same P/N, 88 is different number and 89 different again....they are almost impossible to get in good nick or NOS so I was looking at making some [90/91] sets up. They are basically the same engine family with slightly different barrels/heads. If they are interchangeable then I would get more made and they would be cheaper. Any help would be appreciated, cheers John.

General Discussion / 2014 AUSSIE CLASSIC ROAD RACE CHAMPS @LAKESIDE, BRISBANE

« on: September 26, 2014, 08:37:59 PM »

There on this weekend at the old Lakeside track, QVMX have a display at the SHANNONS big rig transporter [ got to try and convert some of those tar babies...LOL]. Come and say gidday, the racing will be awesome. This meeting is huge, practice Thursday, qualifying Friday, racing Sat and Sun. Graeme Crosby and Kork Ballington are just some of the legends there. There's a few VMXers there already soaking it up. The club running the event [QEMSC] had to jump through all sorts of hoops to get this meeting happening.....NOISE being the big issue. If you have never been to Lakeside then go have a look, it's a very cool track. I wonder if Lozza will be there?
