I thought this election was done and dusted. Most new comers backed the team with the free bilby and free Visas. That was predictable. We do not have a direct democracy here in Australia; therefore, it does not matter much if you vote for the free bilby or the free bunny. The team with the bunnies is now quickly transforming itself to hand out bilbies at the next election as well. No more (or far less) free chocolate bunnies they will use as bait. Does it matter? NO.Its now all about spending, growing at all costs or hit the wall. That will apply to both parties. We are trapped. What does it have to with VMX ? Lots. Just compare the scene from 1990 to now……

And the good old Japanese Manufacturers just plot along nicely . Little dramas ,good conservative production and marketing .No extreme gimmicks. No unhealthy coffein drink peddling.I guess they are eating popcorn now and observe it all carefully.

Years ago I made my own to build the 88mm long stroke cranks. Use C45 steel , hard chrome it and then grind it down to the perfect size H7 or F7 (ISO tolerance ). Any good machine shop can do it for you . Warm the outer and freeze the pin to assemble .

Wow, about 60% of voters want more immigration, continued housing shortage, more crime, more inflation, more woke stuff, more pollution, more clever indoctrination starting at Kindy all the way till Uni and mass sporting events. I rest my case.  :o :o :o :o

If there was a subject to study in right wing propaganda and specious talking points, you'd have a doctorate.


You and Andrew Bolt need to buy yourselves a couple of mirrors and look long and hard into them for the first time in your miserable lives.


Go on Boomer, we'll wait while you finish your banal whining.
Hi Paul, in response to your post. I am happy with my life. I have done many things other people can only dream of. I raced or ridden in every continent but Africa with a positive mix of achievements and experiences. Lucky to share 4 kids with my wife of 36 years and all 4 have a degree. I would not call that miserable at all. Business is also doing well. As far as your labelling goes, all could not be further from the truth. I am a conservation green person (not a woke wierdo greenie LOL). My hobby is to preserve and breed endangered native species up to class 3. Yes, I am stuck with the old values and I believe they could be fashionable again in the not-so-distant future. My energy comes from the roof, the water from the tank, vegetables fruit, fish, eggs, and meat from my own land. If that makes me a right-wing propagandist, I am happy to live with that. I would not swap with you LOL.
