    The AUSSIE ONLY FUEL SURVEY

    OK, I tried BP Ultimate when I first bought my bike but now prefer to run on Premium Unleaded from any garage although I seem to get best results from Caltex. We all use different 'servos', country and city, inland and coastal. I am interested in what you use and where it comes from. I am...

    The AUSSIE ONLY - OIL Thread

    ok winter is fading. Our conditions arn't mirrored anywhere else in the world and frankly I don't really care about 'what is sold in Walmart'. My machine is important to me and what is happening inside that engine may be vital to me one day. I also want the next owner to get peace of mind...

    Yamaha FZ6 Performance in the WET...

    No point in having a nice clean Fazer under its new cover if you can't ride it in the wet! And brothers and sisters of the East and South coast, we have had some rain lately. My plan was for a mental health day, ride from Geelong to Daylesford for lunch at the Convent Gallery. The Convent...

    Ive got the Ventura Sports Panniers, they were the only ones at Peter Stevens the day I went looking for a set and are ok. I tend to like Wolfman's better as they hold more. But.... rather than do my head in, I got what I got and they are ok. Well bloke, I have got my Maketa cordless drill...

    Cheap FZ6 Bike Cover

    Sorry guys, didn't know ALDI wasn't Australia wide. will keep an eye on their catalogues. They often have bike gear on special for a week, the whole setup is a bit wierd really. Their wet weather gear looks all right and as the tatooed guys said to me after I got my cover, no problems returning...

    Down here at Aussie Land we have these German ALDI stores which are noted for their bargains each week. Occasionally bike gear surfaces. I was heading foir some cool mountain climes a couple of weeks ago and frost was predicted. My scoot always is under cover so I cried 'I need a bike cover...

    Soft Pannier racks/bars for as little as $6...that work!

    Thats fine my friend, I happened to be experienced in these matters and was merely sounding you out on your interest. A company such as Oxford or Dririder or Ventura would be our goal, far better to have them make it and wear their fingers out I say! We are at the research and development...

    Boneman - best wishes please.

    Good to hear you are ok, something similar almost happened to me recently down here. I have been thinking about wearing a Hi Visability vest, would it be rude of me to ask if you were wearing yours? (it is your avatar) Coincidently, all Posties (post office deliverers who ride Honda 90...

    Which is the best Sport - Touring Tyre right now?

    My bike came with BT 20's as standard and they squared off pretty radically. As I ride from Lorne to Geelong a lot (Great Ocean Road), I need a tyre that handles the corners and stays warm. Having said that, I do some highway miles as well. Bt 20's did 14,000 km I decided to replace with the...
