V7II - It did it again!

[Clancy]

It put a big smile on my face 

A 500+km day ride to Cooma, up the Snowy Mountains Highway to Tumut, down to Gundaigai & Yass, then my favourite back roads home.
The bike performed faultlessly.

Sorry - no pics, was having too much fun to stop.

Are your mechanical issues all solved?  I guess I could assume that, since you said it performed faultlessly.

This is great to hear, happy trails!

I think that the oil expulsion issues were down to overfilling. Once the air filter was fouled it became a self fulfilling prophesy.

  Along the road to gundagai eh?  They should make a song bout that.

  Imagine that,  Flash Clancy of Gundagai.

No oil drama.
This was a bit of a test run.
Checked the filter box & sump 4 times along the way.
All sweet.

So, next time in that area, The Elliot Way? Might need to start an or so earlier. Well worth it.

So, next time in that area, The Elliot Way?

Is that sealed?

[malik]

Is that sealed?

All the way. And just because there's one or two bends in the road, less travelled. Brings you out near Tabramurra.

[Clancy]

Sweet. I'm checking the weather for the weekend 

[malik]

Go, man, Go! The weather gurus predicted rain all this week up here, but although mostly overcast, there's only been sprinkles on the visor. Fuel stops? - It's only 117k between Tumbarumba & Adaminaby. Decent food in Tumba, too. You do that road once, you'll be going back - at least every time you need to scrub in a new tyre.

Sorry if I'm repeating, learning to navigate forum. Yes great corners up there, big sweepers on Monaro Hwy

Don't I know it.
Monday - 90% chance of rain all day, didn't go riding, no rain until 7pm
Wednesday - 40% chance of rain in the afternoon, went out riding at 8am & got pissed on
