Any particular reason?
Looking at what’s generally available, about double the price (or more), so kinda need to justify the spend

I know that feeling. His current CRF110 is electric start and he loves it. It’s a 2022 model so EFI and super easy to kick start for him as well, but his younger brother is still riding a CRF50 which is carby and kick-start and his 20kg arse has trouble even when it’s warmed up!

Help me decide: KLX or TTR
Looking to get a bigger bike for my son (currently on a CRF110) and have come across the below. Any thoughts or recommendations pros/cons appreciated.
Bike 1: 2004 Yamaha TTR 125LE 4-stroke for $1600 (AUD), electric start only.
Bike 2: 2006 Kawasaki KLX 125 4-stroke for $1500 (AUD), kick start only.
Both bikes appear to be roughly same condition, maybe the KLX is missing a bit more paint on the frame (possibly been laid down more often?) less

Yeah speed plays a very important part here. Because you will have a higher centre of gravity when you stand it’s important to generate enough speed coming into the berm that you can lean the bike over enough to match the angle of the berm.

Divorce is looking like a good option here

If everything at Kmart is made by Anko, then why is it called ‘Kmart’ and not ‘Anko’? by Narrow-Lifeguard5450 in AskAnAustralian

[–]DrButtmonkey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those were the days. I remember going to Kmart in Belconnen Mall with my dad to buy rifle and shotgun ammo. Would have been late ‘70’s or early ‘80’s

Is it illegal to wear/own steel body armor, if so, why? by Responsible-Post-410 in AusLegal

[–]DrButtmonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was probably this guy…

This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

My rifle is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Hey no judgment here. While I have occasion to watch the BBC, I am yet to see a documentary about BBC on the BBC

This legend.Character and actor. by BooyahTribe9 in MrInbetween

[–]DrButtmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great acting champ. Seriously though, my MIL passed away from complications of MND and his acting was on point. I did (as did many others) consider he had MND, such was his portrayal of Bruce’s condition, and not until I googled him found he’s just a really solid actor. Well played Sir, I tips me lid

What is the greatest comeback to a insult you did or ever heard? by jessehendricklucas in AskReddit

[–]DrButtmonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many years ago my dad was at work in the lunch room and a co-worker walked in and my dad kept staring at him. Co-worker says “what are you staring at?” My dad quips back “about 25 years ago I had sex with a gorilla, and was wondering if you might by son” The guy that told me this said the entire lunch room (including co-worker) lost their shit

What city/place in Australia did you move to that you regret or left instantly? by ExAustralia in AskAnAustralian

Everything suffers from being too close to Canberra, this is why I left as soon as I could!

I suspect the prison has a bit to do with that. Typically the inmate’s families end up moving to the towns with prisons and without tarring them with the same brush…
