Quick someone shuffle this guy into the back room for a little reprograming :lol:

At the moment I'm leaning towards a new Zed but there's another "fun" contender floating around from way out of left field (Italian), but I don't know that I feel comfortable with a non Jap bike and the lack of reliability concerns, plus the shitbagging I'd cop on here :)

If there was a new Rex still around it'd probably be up there too, but I want a newey. Oh for an updated modern version of the Rex. :?

Then again there is this

And the world is in perfect harmony. Your Rex is happy it's now being ridden. Doubled the K's yet?

Just about. The run up to Gingers will give it a good stretch.

Take your thermals, it's always cold up on that plateau. Good chance to run it in properly too, as I bet it's never had much load on it. Plus brakes, suspension, particularly rear shocks need time to bed in.......

Watch my words haunt you as you freeze up on the plains early or late one day. You might be lucky, but I always pack something warm going anywhere near there.

Nah need to test some Zeno bits at the ARDC day. Zeno play with his sacrifiscal lamb (Fireyis roadie :D ) and says he has a few more bits for me :D

Super keen to hit the Oxely with the Tard soon though
