Glad US were able to help keep the lights on on your way to flawless greatness!

........weren't in the Military at all were you???



Limited stint with militia only. Not long enough to blame loonitude on. Have to be somewhat mental though to ride an outdated nuts roaster in 45C + which temperamental SMC and weave can do you in when you expect it the least.

G'day Otra and a very warm welcome.

It's a great place to live, and thousands of kilometres of wonderful roads and scenery.

I can see one of my first down under posts being about how to change the display from miles to kms.

Here in upright land, my posts are more on asking how to restore the display to miles after inadvertently changing it to kms!
Same process as km to miles. Its a toggle.

Thank you for the welcome. I hope the Amazon blockade is not taking too much of a toll down there. Hoping you guys can get over that. I made it through hurricane Harvey last year, but not sure I could stand an Amazon blockade!
Use a VPN and there are freight forwarders in the US who on ship to Aus.

Resourceful crowd down there! Maybe thanks to the superior blood supply to the head. OZs might be able to put their hands on some M77 after all and save the splines. Next I might even learn where to get an ECU that doesn't throw a code 26!

Threads after threads here of riders inquiring if M77 really performs as well as good old Moly 60. Searched OZStoc but couldn't get a feel if the Aussies had already a good record using M77 or not?

I managed to get two tubes of the old Honda Moly 60 a few years ago. Bought it from a US Honda dealer in Michigan via their eBay page.

I think most of us are still using Honda Moly 60 (or Suzuki) as a tube does last awhile.

This is the only time I have seen M77 mentioned on OzStoc.  http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=12219.msg1228142#msg1228142
