My son and I Phillip Island 2011
Hi Guys,
I haven't been around for a while so I thought I'd post a couple of Youtube videos I made from my recent trip to Phillip Island on the old girl. With approx 180 kg on it she was a little light on the front but the power and grunt is still there. We are in the Victorian high country between Alexandra and Lake Eildon. 80 km of twisties. Cheers.

Hey Classic,
Good to hear from you mate. Actually the front tyre copped a hiding and was shot by the time we got home. I have a nice new PR 2 on there now and am running them as a set now. The back tyre is awesome. I hardly marked it. Is a nice road in there mate. Lots of gravel on some corners which is why you will see me slow considerably at times. Have to be careful mate with the young bloke on the back. Other than that he is happy to get along pretty well which is good. He is a great little pillion. Cheers.

Yer , I usually kill my tires when om carting Kerri around for any length of time up in the mountains .... must be the extra gravity effect , not her weight??
...lolol
Hey , that was a weird place to set up camp 
.... he seemed to be going fairly slow ??? a touch of target fixation? and not remembering to counter-steer ?? painful **** either way .... Did he forget he had no knobbies on her on that day ???
Did he pull it out and continue Barnsey ???
I have had many a heart beat moment on that Black Spur !!!! nice road , but definately a good , or not so good depending ? , place to come un stuck mate !!!
...lolol

Yeah mate we got her out and he batted on. He bent the front fairing stay and I'd say did some damage to the steering cause he couldn't get it around any corners after that. I'm sure he got it fixed now. He just ran out of room in that corner and didn't want to hit the other guy so he sat it up and that's what happened. Was going fairly slow thank christ. Cheers mate.
