The R80/7 is a work in progress, the R100 is no longer an ex ACT Police bike(previous owner) and is a fix as I ride type of bike and once the R80 is sorted I'll start on it next.

Welcommen Baz.

Motorcycle heaven is Tassie. So lucky it's so far away from the rest of the world otherwise you'd get overrun tout suite!

Do you ever get down to the Saturday breakfast at Salamanca Place? Some great bikes to see...if you haven't been.

It's quiet down here...head up to the Post 70 airheads...more traffic there.
Cheers, Steve

NIce pictures. The scenery, not just the bikes. Makes me want to ride there either motorcycle or my bicycle.

I love those big Yamaha FJ bikes. Nice to look at and no doubt a speeding ticket collector.

I had one n the late '80's. FJ1200. Monster bike and it chewed thru rear tyres real fast. The only real option then was a Dunlop radial @ $250. They lasted about 5K km and in my first year on that bike I did 40K km. 8 tyres, $OZ2K...
I had to sell it...bought my 2nd RS. The rears were <$OZ200 and they lasted twice as long.
I can't remember getting any velocity awards from the LEO's though.

Tassie is a mecca for both, with mtb riding hugely popular.
