If you do come 'down under' give me a pm shout mate! It is a good place. There's a wide choice of climates to choose from and serious space.
Since you're getting a mechanic to do your forks, do you now qualify for Sprock and my 'Lazy *******' club?? It's quite exclusive you know.

ya know it was the exact same thing tho' when my fork seals went .....right as
riding season started ....... I just said to myself ..... to hell with this I need to
be back on the road asap ..... so gave the work to Seacoast Cycles near where I work
ran me a buck seventy five ...... thought at that time it was a good deal
time is money and sometimes your time is more valuable than spending a week
fecking about with fork seals after work

I agree with you Sprock about sometimes just getting a professional to do the work. You've just got to be lucky and find the right one.

Make that 4.
I had mine done in a shop while I was away last Summer.
Tough choice though. Work on bike? Drive 2000 miles across Europe doing what ever the **** I like? Um...... nah. The bike went in and got looked after while I was away.
Glad you got sorted Shakes. Exercised your wallet effectively! Go out... ride.
I've got Blackpool on my radar before long. Just wondering which theme night I'm going to go for! Cross-dressing Ducatti-on-ice night? Hmmmm...

The one in St Annes I really dont want to miss, is the 2 stroke night. Mmmm Castrol Aaahhhh!!! I love the smell of it!
It'd be great if you could come to one of the meets matey, they're a great crowd.
