    BH> By the way, are any of youse planning to come to the UnAugural
    BH> aus.moto Rally of Tarago on Easter Saturday?

    Is Tarago anywheres near Tintaldra?

    If so, perhaps we could swing by on our way back to Bright on the
    Saturday..

    That's easy.. either the owner has a whole bunch of receipts or a
    diary/logbook, or they don't.

    Theory might sound good on a babyblade where you have to be revving the
    absolute ring out of the bastard to get it going anywhere... transpose that to
    larger capacity bike like the ZX12R... redline at 11500, power really comes on
    strong from about 6000rpm... hits the freeway speed limit at about
    8000-8500rpm in 1st gear... doesn't tend to get much use over 5000rpm at
    all... ahh shit don't tell me it's fucked now!.

    Oh, OK. Wasn't sure. Thought it was one of those small towns just north
    of Cooma.

  19. Well, its all back in one piece now... I've actually ridden it to work
    and back once (to get it pink slipped for the first time) -
    unfortunately, the oip pressure light now comes on when its at idle one
    the oil has warmed up :-(

    I'm guessing (looking at the exploded parts diagrams) that I either left
    out an o-ring under the oil pump, or a spacer from inside the
    flywheel/alternator... Bugger...
    Dropped it on to Northside 24th June '02, rode it again for the first
    time on 1 Dec '03...
