........tighten the rotor bolt with the rattle Gun....

Nooooooo. We have enough trouble here with people that don't have a 'feel" for bolt tightening stripping or snapping things off by hand. Even in experienced hands, rattle guns give very little feedback.

Does anyone from Brisbane area want to meet somewhere to ride up to the Generals place. I've never been there before, and my el cheapo GPS can't find his address.

Just name a time and place and I'll meet you there.

                                                   Thanks Tony.

Tony, I'll meet you if you want......what way are you intending to travel.......via ESK, or coming in on the highways?
I can meet you at the BP Servo at Burpengary or at the Ettamogah pub?

FJZ1 1200 - It'll do me just fine.
Timing has much to do with the success of a rain dance.

It'll probably be quicker for me to shoot though Brisbane than going the back way Harvy, so Burpengary  sounds good. What time you reckon.

Tony, I'll be in the car as I want to take a few spare parts up with me in case anyone needs em.........so whatever time you recon you can get to Burpengary. Ken will be on 2 wheels i believe?
Neil, you watching this thread? Looks like your best bet would be to come down thru The Bluff and take the Esk Rd and then via Kilcoy, Peechester and Beerwah, Steve Irwin way to the highway and we can meet you at the Ettamogah Pub.

Cheers

Heh Heh, I was going to say yep, see you at BP, no worries. But then I realised I'm going away to Darlington Park south Of Beaudesert next Thursday for a few days camping.
But my dear wife said knowing how much I love Manshed days, why don't I get up really early on the Saturday, fly home in the car, jump on the bike and get to the Generals reasonably early. Sounds feasible. Then I can get home late that arvo, jump back in the car and head back to the campsite. (Its only an hour south of home)

I don't really have anything to do to mine anyway, (RPM parts order still to be finalised), have new chain/sprockets, might do that.
