Now here's a test for you guys. I didn't notice it until last night myself, but there is a small paint repair that has been done incorrectly. Can you find it?

G'day volvi, I'm in Geelong. This bike popped up in a local paper last week and as soon as i saw it i pounced. Bike is stock and plan to keep it that way apart from a touring screen from eagle screens in Perth. Will probably order that today. Havent seen one of these colour schemes getting around for a few years now. Last time I saw one it was parked on a footpath i think in Melbourne but not 100% sure. I do remember just standing there admiring it for a while tho. Maybe it was yours!

G'day naga, yeah I will do eventually but not a high priority really. At the moment I'm just enjoying becoming aquainted with the bike. Bought it without roadworthy but had that done on Wednesday and it passed with flying colours as I knew it would. Went to vicroads yesterday to transfer ownership but they were closed. Grr I thought they were open Saturday mornings so now will have to do it on Monday.

Anyway mate thanks for the links in your sig. I'll download the manuals soon to help me with future maintenance work. Thanks for dropping in to say hi.

Welcome to the forum, always good to have another Aussie aboard!

We will definitely have to have a run to Victoria now we have so many guys down there! Nice bike by the way - I think I watched it on Ebay?

Cheers, SB

Hey welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new acquisition. I'm sure you'll have lots of great miles ahead. Don't want to spoil it for others, so PM sent. I like your user name as well. Clearly you've really enjoyed yourself on that Transalp Plasnart.
