Title: Hi from Snake!!
Post by: Snake on September 25, 2013, 10:12:10 AM: Hi all!! My name is snake (steve to ppl of the non bike persuasion) from the south burnett region of qld. I've got an ex police st1100 that I got early 2011 but haven't ridden it enuff due to work and other commitments but am going to change that and have started spending a lot more time on it and loving it. I've been following the forum for quite a while now and have gained some great info and knowledge from it which has been a great help to me and so wanted to be a part of the gang.

Am looking forward to going on a few rides and meeting the great crew from here. :beer

Glad you've already benefited from the Forum. Hope you can make it to an RTE soon. You're not far from anywhere when you ride an ST!

Post by: Snake on September 25, 2013, 04:32:23 PM: Hi Abe. I built the trailer back in 1995 to go behind the kwaka Vulcan 1500 I had (and still do). Its been around the block more than a few times but has served me well. It has a waterproof lid/table and can fit an esky on the 'A' frame for camping with no probs

From memory I ran about 14 - 16psi in the tyres. Haven't checked them for a bit as I'm putting new wheel bearing's on the ol girl. Need to lash out and put a new tow hitch on it as well.

A big HI!! and thanks to everyone for making me feel welcome. Am looking forward to meeting everyone over time and enjoying the rides. :thumbs
