I live in Darwin NT, OZ, Im a sparky & work in NW Africa fifo, and am mad keen on CR500's :twisted:

The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

Give him a bell and tell him to get his drunk ass back on the site, tell him I said so!

I was talking to him heaps when I was back in Oz last, looking at finally meeting him in person in September to ride the mega loop with him & the boys, hopefully Ill be on his fabled 69er :shock:

Cheers guys, its good to be on board :cool:

Righto Im keen to get the ball rolling, & you got the gift of the gab to make it happen mate, when I get home lets get some lads together for a yak, make some fair dinkum plans

To start with -
Theres you
me,
Deni,
Deni's mate that bought his 98 from him
the dude I sold my black framed 01 steely,
this bloke thats mates with the previous owner of my new 01 steely (he has a 01 steely too),
and Im sure you could wrangle up a few more strays, maybe a NT news advert???

Best bit is when I do the Michigan MEGA mile later this year Ill be able to hold it to my great mate Bigpower to owe me a return visit, & get him down under next year for some good ole Aussie hospitality.

Mate I might even be able to get Tiktakboom over from France for a blast with us, Im converting him, got him into the OP bundy today in the Sahara (smuggled it in), poor bugger reckons he was fucked from drinking Aussie petrol :lol:

Asteroid, I want to run that DG silencer on my new steely, still got it???

I dont have a DG,
iv'e got that 4' foot long DEP that didnt line up with anything on our AF's remember & i sent the chanber back to NT motorcycle center as it was nickel plated & i wanted the Worx's style for ease of repaire, needless to say it took 9 (yes-nine) months to get to me from the time i ordered it. :evil:
