WR's are good bikes,  but damn high maintenance to keep them running.  

They also don't have a cush drive in the back wheel,  so if you ride them on the road it destroys the gearbox pretty quick,  so I would avoid a motard  version like the plague. 

Had a crf which made metal when road riding. Just gotta keep it pinned!!

 

Hay Corey,  how many engines has the Kim been through? 

Boss at my last job had one,  first ride he came on with me and some mates,  it ran out of compression and I had to tow it almost 30km with my busted arse xt600. 

The engine rebuild came to slightly more $$ than he paid for the bike. 

If you get a triumph,  look up Perth cafe racers on fb.  Awesome bunch of blokes to ride with

Had a fresh build before i purchased it thankfully. And i've put maybe 6hrs max on it. It's now for sale, wana buy it?

The boss has said i can only have 1 bike and 1 import that doesn't run.

Anyone looking to buy or know anyone looking to buy a Skyline? I'm drowning in medical bills at the moment so I have to part with the car. 

Just swapped the engine last November to another RB25 with half the km's on it along with the nismo front bumper.

    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!)     I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding).   I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springs  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
    • Ok got some old tyres for you guys...my car has been sitting around un-driven for about 6 years now. I had it on the original rims with the shitty compliance tyres it got it with back in 2006, which were manufactured in 2004... Sidewalls eventually rotted and split open, obviously no air in them and the rims were holding the car up. Just swapped them with some 17" Work rims and tyres which are probably 10+ years old too but at least holding air
    • Nah mate, safe as $800k apartments
