I'm sure you're all up on the sit with the krytonite locks saga so FYI this is a copy of the latest email I received from Kryptonite yesterday. Hope you find it useful!

Dear Kryptonite Customers,

Thank you very much for your patience over the last few months as Kryptonite worked to re ...

hiYa Colette,
Sorry I'm not sure bout the 'capacity' of the bag - it is exactly the same as shown in Miss ZZR's pic though.
There was ample space for 2wk tour of Tassie, but gotta admit I also wore a backpack.
No probs getting on and off - seems a bit awkward at first but seriously, not an issue ...

Hello, great to have another sydneysider on board. Hope to catch up on a ride soon!

Yeh Ive got the same bag as Miss ZZR - no complaints about the bag, but they're the clips I mentioned - watch em, cause I found they just don't stay clipped together.... pull on them and see how easy they unclip..

Oh, forgot to mention I'm pretty sure that these days you can buy waterproof covers separately for your ventura/gearsack bag! One of the girls on the Tassie trip had a couple spare that she sold to some girls in the group.

I think the best way is via the gearsac/ventura racks, sturdy and stress free IMHO, however if you are like me and aren't interested in the whole fitting of the rack thing etc etc. I think the best is a seat/pillion bag.
In saying that however, I own an RJays bag which is now great due to the fact ...

Hi All,
I'm currently with QBE Western, due to the fact that my options are limited because of both claims (for the car) and my driving history, and also due to the type of bike ZXR, and probably because of my age - I dont have the option of Arista.. but a friend of mine recently got her renewal ...

I'm always keen and make a point of joining in on charity rides whenever possible.
Great cause! If you need help with anything I'll put my hand up here....
Cheers
Rob

Thanx for the response Mick, our plan is to take clothes, sleeping bags, and a 2x man tent to share. We'll be riding from Sydney to GP and have taken from 11th to 22nd off work, so that we can check out Great Ocean Rd after GP...
Highside camping sounds the gun.... I'll stay tuned in, and wait to ...

Thanx for the response Mario... I searched P.I site to no avail and have since contacted Grandprix. com. FYI I thought I'd post details here.
I hope some of you find it useful.
Cheers

Hi Robyn
Thank you for your email in regards to obtaining tickets for the 2005 Australian Motorcycle ...

On the subject of GP accom. I read mention of staying trackside.....
I stayed in a house at Vetnor one year, which was great, close to the track and near the beach however from the enquiries I've made so far this year, seems pretty booked out so a girlfriend and I were planning to stay trackside ...

We travelled from Hobart via Derwent Bridge, then to Queenstown, Strahan, Zeehan and Waratah - on the way to Waratah I recall seeing an old mine and the buckets overhead, however think we may have went though there too fast, and as such couldn't say if it was still operating?? Sorry cannot answer ...

Dont Hesitate! Seriously!!
Ive literally just returned from 2 MAGIC MAGIC weeks in Tassie with a group of 15 bikes and 1 car. 1x day of rain total...
Great company, great food, brilliant roads and beautiful scenery - way too many kodak moments! Had an absolute ball of a time.

Drinking plenty ...

Thanx to everyone for the warm welcomes....
Last weekend I changed the spark plugs and replaced the air filter with a K&N, so I am keen to get out and see if the filter has made a difference, and if so how much??

I'm planning to change the oil and filter this weekend, so will try to get to ...
