    Now I'm confused, you have a self admitted low post count AND your 9fiddy is so clean you obviously don't ride it....so what do you do all day ??:wink:

    Yes. True. It's amazing how the Land Rover prices drop 40K when you leave the dealership.

    Not so good resale values on those vehicles.

    Ozimick, is your new rim from Ashes, I was there the other week asking about fixing, replacing my front and he brought a rim out that looked very much like yours.
    is that the heavy duty spoke option. looks good.

    this is what I have, it was on the bike when I bought it, and it's got a bad ding in it, only gives me the shits about 50-60km/h, other that that all is good.

    I've been thinking of swapping it out for an excel, or seeing if I can get the dent rolled out.

    Cool mate, it looked like a nice bit of gear when i eyed it off.
    It's a funny set up there, real shitty looking house out front, until you walk around the back, I nearly got in my car and drove off until I read this liitle faded sign saying to go around the back.
    If first impressions counted, then I wouldn't have gone around the back ,but once you do walk up the side it's like another place, they know their rims.

    It was good to meet you both on TK's run. Enjoy the ride and the bikes.

    You've got the bikes to cover big distances now, if you ever come west let me know, I'ld be glad to have a snort or assist.

    Regards

    Cheers for that info Micheal, been a bit concerned about the jerky probs associated with some of the 990's but it is comforting to know it is a fairly easy fix. This gives me alot of 950/990's to consider now, sweet...

    A huntin here we go...
