BMCC Sign on Practice day

[vandy010]

i usually jam a thick copper washer between the gears and "undo" it with a breaker bar.
same washer jammed between the gears when "tightening" but this time i use my tourque wrench.
whats a rattle gun?

OK - thanks everyone for the offers and advice.  Obviously my mechanicing is a little agricultural , but we get there in the end.  I have all the tools to do it Vandy's way, so I will launch into it tomorrow.

doesn't the primary drive nut have a lock washer on it, isn't it a lh thread and can't you use Loctite if required?

Yes, no (I don't think so) and yes (I do that as well).

Now back to the practice day - I assume I will need a day licence to be covered by insurance.  Also assume I will need to join the club on sign up day to be able to ride.   Mainline I won't really need a lift on Saturday, but any chance some space on the ute on Sunday ?  I have lost "my" bike trailer   :'(
I will bring the 2 Hondas on Saturday (the mower and the whipper snipper) and the yamaha on Sunday (providing new crank seals proves to be the issue)

[mainline]

tony, no worries for the lift sunday. Looks like i'm working saturday to try and catch up after this rain

[EML]

Are you sure those Hondas will be reliable enough-this is hardcore mowing you know. I'd trade up to a Husky if it was me!
Being jap it will need avgas and a port job by lunch I reckon. Not to mention 6 plugs and special premix. 

[YZ250H]

Mainline - I'll be in touch mate - you are a legend.  As an aside I thought you blokes would have enough roofs on to get you through the "wet season"  .

EML - the Hondas are reliable as they are both 4 strokes    I'll admit they are not industrial strength, but I'll bring 'em anyway to see if they are any use.  Hopefully the bold claims about the Husky infallability are true - otherwise it may be your shout to keep us all quiet 

Look forward to meeting a whole new club of fellow VMXers.

[EML]

Wouldn't shout if a shark bit me! but I'll have an esky with something cold in it.

note nth brisbane is holding a dirt track meeting the same day for anyone feeling -practise mx and have a wizz around onthe dirt track i will get a chance to give the new beast a run

[mainline]

sounds interesting, what do we have to do to have a run on the dirt track? Are knobbies a no-go?

[shorelinemc]

got run trials tyre have a couple of free ones here i save for dirt track

[DR]

knobbies are fine on the front Paul, just the rear needs to be changed

[EML]

just checked the Husky(ride on) seems to be close to trials universals so what time is scrutineering.
It's a single 4 stroke so there'll be a class for it-might have to pull awheek off to get in the sidecar race though.

What a fantastic turn out today, the pits were full, the track was grassed over in areas, and thanks to the recent rain, dust was no problem. Always good to meet new members, and catch up with old ones (members) all in all it was a damm good day March 14th is our first club day, don't forget, you can email your entries in.

Keep Smiling
