Yeah I definitely did not! Fronts are still sweet. I must have missed packing them. They were pretty dry. I have packed the linkage, swing arm and steering bearings. They are still sweet. I am just about finished my studying so I will have heaps more time for mid weekend and I can start catching up to you and Nocams!

Must be dry as a nuns down your way!

I tend to go through rotors, chains, front sprockets, and .... wheel bearings ... frequently. Riding in grinding paste has that effect.

My latest set have lasted years with no wear though! This new bike even still looks like new! Poached some 2T to top up the briggs and Stratton this arv too! Top bike!

Very good true Jake, I do avoid mud holes and the like but she never gets pampered in the bush.

New top end every 85-100 hrs is what I?ve always done with this and previous gg?s.

Sold my 2010 to a fella back in 2015 with just over 700hrs, hadn?t needed a bottom end either. He racked up some more hrs over the years.

Saw it for sale on scumtree not so long ago. That was a fantastic machine!
