Title: Have purchased a new(er) bike - how do i change my user name??
Post by: 94rmx250 on March 03, 2010, 12,23:28 PM
I guess the title pretty much says it all!!

I havent as of yet come up with a new name and wont be using the bike this time (seemed like a good idea at the time - no imagination!!)

here's a link to what i got (well, will get next week anyway):

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250588437978&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

I have ridden with the current owner (was with him the day i did my shoulder) and the bike is in brilliant condition for its age - very meticulous owner who's just got anear new Gasser

If you require and info or help on the RMX (Really Mean Xhaliration)feel free to use my brain.

Its funny Sean, when i read what Will wrote i straight away remembered what you said about your ministers reaction when you went to ride the XR after getting the Husky!!!

I got the last one Brad in late 97 or early 98.... so at this rate, i wreckon i'll have electric start sometime aroung 2020!!!

Am wrapt with the bike though in terms of the mods its got and most importantly it can be road reg'd so i can do the HCR next year.... (there's no way she'll let me spend the money to reg it in time for this years!!

One of many mods, and the Forks are not USD. Best forks are Conventional Marzocchi's as used on 90's Huskys.

Dustin I think when you sell the old one for $450 less than you thought (according to the finance minister) you could get that will pay for the full rego and bingo HCR2010.
Anyway plaster is off and the physio terrorist has had is fun see you at the end of the month.

RWC first then off to VicRoads, I'd guess the bike has had full reg on it before so it will be in VicRoads records.

Having broken both legs that's the wrong way to eternal happiness! There must be an easier way if required?

Breaking your big toe isn't the way either.
