Ah well, guess the duck died!!! 40,000 thats a lot of k's. when i went to WA i was on a kawa 1000j, brand new, we were away for 21days and it rained 16 of them, hit Broken Hill and the locals were saying 'you must 'av bought the rain with you', it certainly stayed with us, that Nullabor is a long ride!! Thats a cool pic of you with the back sliding out!!! stay well... peterk

 

Nah thats not me sliding the back end out. I try an avoid doing that as you don't really want 250kg of bike getting out of shape.

I also make it a habit to never let me get photographed on a bike. Mates have been busted by the cops like that.
