Hi Woody,

Thats my YZ G.  The wheels were new for season 2010 and I only rode the bike once before the wheels were rebuilt as part of a pretty comprehensive bike rebuild.  It was at a Broadford club day in serious mud with extremely poor tyres so its pretty hard to judge what the difference might have been.   I rode the Victorian Classic MX series last year and they seemed pretty ok.  The suspension was serviced and rebuilt prior to the season as well so the bike is feeling pretty tight, solid and stable on landing.   Sorry I can't be more specific.

It's taken awhile, but I have uploaded my pics - finally. In truth, I didn't take many as I was too busy chatting most of the weekend due to a brain fart I had at the preparation stage.
The HBBB has a good vibe to it, but to me, still needs a bit of fine tuning. I'm becoming increasingly annoyed at the "wheelie thru the pits" brigade - catch 'em and send 'em out the gate! And therein lays the problem "for me" - too self regulatory with no-one out and about to deal with the morons.
The Sunday Enduro loop was worth the price of admission - it'd straighten flaccid rope. The Dave Russell stunt show was, as Doggy Digger said, a WOODSTOCK moment in life - loved the firewall!
Montynut - thanks for kind offer to test ride some of your fleet.
Alison and Steve VMX247 - great to share a meal and and some reminiscing.
GMC - awesome to see your craftmanship up close.
Doggy Digger - your observations on life continue to enthrall me, you're just a great bloke to chat with.
Spanish Armada - thanks fella for EVERYTHING.

This is Spanish's V75

Not much travel left!

Destined to a life behind bars. A garage full of KTM's and a 73 CR 250M Honda....H7 250 Monty will be at Harrow!
A "never was" of the Nineties...

Good shots Teebone.....that's a nicely artistic shot of my Hindall flat tracker. It's now hanging in the pool room ;D. The decompressor works a treat too, way better than the stocker (see bolt replacement in front of cylinder). Because of my dicky leg joints, I have a bit of trouble kicking anything bigger than a Chinese pitbike but these little gizmos allow me to easily kick start my big bores including the notoriously cranky RT1 Yamahas.
