Hi all, new and wondering why I waited so long
« on: January 07, 2015, 09:06:37 PM »
So I dropped into a dealer today looking for a new rear tyre for my 2000 ST100 (punctured, plugged, leaking), they didn't have one in stock and there seemed to be a few options..... More of all that later. When I got home and kickstarted the googlemobile I stumbled upon you lot and realised there are rides and get togethers that I'm missing out on so here I am. Looking forward to catching up out on the road. Queensland in March you say? Better put in that leave application.

Welcome on in Keith.  Hope to catch up on an RTE sometime. It is getting slightly harder to find the correct tyres for the 1100 but they are still available.

Bridgestone T30R
Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart

Both come in OEM 1100 sizes but I run 1300 OEM sizes in the Bridgestone GT spec and might be going to PR4s on the next set

Hi Foxst.  You were just up the road from the 2014 Rally in Ballarat.  Never mind.  It's a nice overnight ride to Toowoomba- I did it in the opposite direction.  Big welcome when you get there.    :thumbs

Hi Keith and welcome from Gulargambone. A great 1/2 way stop for those heading north or south.

Enjoy the fun and info here and the rides. Hope to see you at the National Rally in March.

Mine will be blue soon, but not Honda's version.
