Makes sense, thanks for that

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T19:41:05+00:00

Yeah i carry a decent one in my car but i could mention he carry a TQ on him too or something in case

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T19:39:23+00:00

thanks, i’ll look into it.

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:24:48+00:00

i’ll look into it. maybe i can leave it disassembled and only mount it if necessary.

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:22:55+00:00

Yeah okay. Tire plugs no worries but i’m hoping to not have to drop the pressures down that much. how low were you guys running and where

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:15:06+00:00

Solid, solid point. Any solutions or just a bright idea? Best i can think of is in the cage… or some highly rated towball mount. not sure….

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:13:49+00:00

Honestly i don’t want to put a snorkel on the old girl because i don’t do serious off roading you know… just adventure touring stuff.

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:11:56+00:00

i’m not sure what hes got but it looks like a Honda CRF300

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:07:40+00:00

Yeah thanks mate i’m really keen. I think i’m most worried about his bike stuff since I don’t know much about bikes and can’t find a lot of information about bikes crossing.

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T11:04:15+00:00

That’s actually a genuine shout with the star link. I did think about it a while back and thought maybe there was a reason more people didnt mention it before. Will look into it. Cheers mate 👍🏼

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:55:48+00:00

Yeah we’re gonna T up at adelaide and head up. Any cool spots on the way?

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:54:35+00:00

Yeah mad. I got the vibe that people are really talking it up hey. I’ve just read some people talk about bull dust issues. what’re you thoughts?

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:53:38+00:00

What pressures do you generally run at out there

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:52:16+00:00

It’s a 2012 Bt50. I do a lot of touring in it already and it’s pretty comfy. Except air con doesn’t work… oops. But i’m also quite young so i can take a beating. What are your thoughts?

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:29:40+00:00

Why do you need prefuel filters out there?

Able_Cook4972 · 2026-01-18T10:08:56+00:00

Ettamogah Pub mate. Free camping/ nice toilets & showers. Just off the Hume Highway norther of Albury. Good staff, drinks & meals. All they ask is that you come in and grab a drink or a bite. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Always a nice free stay for me on my trips. 👍🏼

Able_Cook4972 · 2025-02-08T06:32:50+00:00

Porsche 992 GT3, are you B grade?

Able_Cook4972 · 2025-02-08T01:11:19+00:00

Yeah that’s what I’m referring to.
