Was browsing the for sale ads and came across this, going by the accessories and the location, could this be the bike Randy rode to Jindabyne.

Too young to be old but old enough to know better.

Looking real good Rover, well done mate!

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

Yes, that is the one. I recall I put close to 3000km on it in six days and it ran flawlessly, slabbing and twisties.

As listed a bunch of upgrades where performed to it when I came over, but I must thank Rover and Harvy for taking the extra steps to bring it to a better bike after I left. The valves where also checked and adjusted, a new valve cover gasket & grommets added as well.

As most of you heard at the rally, the swing arm chain guide was missing and the chain was clanking on the metal pieces. The chain guide has been replaced which was the only major item that needed attention before my trip that there was not enough time to get tended to.

I know Rover had medical issues to deal with and Harvy has been traveling the country working, so their time investment they have completed for me is greatly appreciated.

This is a solid bike for anyone with a ton RPM upgrade already completed.

If you can help facilitate this sale in any way, I would be grateful.

If i was after a bike right now i'd be all over that like hair on a gorilla. I have a mate on deployment with the air force right now but he might be interested once he gets back... probably another month or so, if its not sold by then.

Delta,

So far we have only had a few nibbles, so the possibility of it being available seems pretty good. Let me know and maybe send him the info so if he has any questions I can cover them before he gets back.

Thanks, Randy - RPM
