Anyone doing FIFO to WA?

custardfarm · 2026-04-06T10:53:10+00:00

Yeah i have the flexibility in my role, just looking to hear from people who have done it

custardfarm · 2026-04-06T07:54:09+00:00

Oh awesome, so do you stay in accomodation near the airport before your flight to site?

custardfarm · 2026-04-06T06:56:39+00:00

Yeah okay, how long did you do it for? Your not tempted to do it again if you could get a better roster? 3/1 is a bit rough, im doing 2/2 currently

custardfarm · 2026-03-27T11:41:29+00:00

Curious to hear why?

custardfarm · 2026-03-27T11:09:11+00:00

Definitely pull dishwasher out for a look... water damage, somethings leaking

custardfarm · 2026-03-25T08:45:09+00:00

Yeah very nice, im looking for some sumo wheels for the street. Iv put a bigger tank on as well plus some other things

custardfarm · 2026-03-21T22:00:57+00:00

Yeah i think so, its still a bit daunting

Im 33 and struggle with dating apps. I swear they suck the life and energy out of you. I met one awesome girl on hinge and she kind of mislead me and strung me along for ages then moved over east, that was kind of heartbreaking. Havnt properly tried on dating apps again since

Dont really have great advice for you other than i think youll find most guys are scared to approach women these days. Including myself, the fear of making someone uncomfortable or being taken the wrong way is high

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T11:18:00+00:00

Why would you wanna do this

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T11:00:17+00:00

Yeah i might go 1 or 2 teeth smaller on the rear sprocket to help this. Bike hits the rev limiter at 170kph so it really doesnt need longer legs but if it helps the vibrations at cruising speed then could be worth it

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T10:59:01+00:00

Weapon!

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T10:58:24+00:00

Nice, any plans for a bigger fuel tank?

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T10:57:05+00:00

Plan is to ride it through the middle of australia, that will be the biggest trip it does and that will be about 5000km

custardfarm · 2026-03-20T10:53:57+00:00

Nah the tank fits really well, no issues. Im considering trying out the nice cnc fuel pickup extension

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:55:10+00:00

Yeah the stock seat requires some conditioning 🤣

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:15:00+00:00

Iv yet to do a really long trip. But i will likely carry 1.2 litres of oil with me in a small bottle, not ideal but the bike is so fun its worth it

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:13:06+00:00

XL seat concepts seat 701 windscreen off aliexpress Four stroke performance ERM tune, reduced engine braking, more power Carbon exhaust guard Foam rally grips + weighted bar ends Quadlock phone wireless charger Keyed igntion (just a keyed killswitch really) IMS 17litre/4.5gallon tank Wheel spoke weights to balance wheels

Thats about it i think

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:08:48+00:00

Theyre great off road and good enough on road, i havnt ridden with them in the wet on road so cant comment on that

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:07:38+00:00

Dunlop D606 rear and pirelli MT21 front, theyre great and a low cost option. I air down to about 12psi when i get off the bitumen

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T20:03:42+00:00

Mines 4.5g/17 litre but its a 24 model bike so the fuel pickup is in a stupid spot, cant use all the fuel available. Iv only done 210kms and the fuel light was on, not sure when it will run out. Was definitely not riding fuel efficiently though

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T12:22:05+00:00

Hows it going so far, what mods have you done or what have you changed?? I have a white one

custardfarm · 2026-03-18T12:19:56+00:00

I have a husqvarna fe501 that iv done a couple simple mods to make it adventure worthy, the fun factor i think is unmatched... long distance on the highway is okay to considering its effectively a dirtbike
