Quite a turn around. Well done.
It helps when the owners are UA pilots that fly into YSSY at least once a month .....nassi wrote:Quite a turn around. Well done.

I could probably get you a lot of tank work if you wanted it.
The 80's Jap bikes (particularly RDs) are very hard to get tanks for.
Some are being made out of India, but the quality is terrible apparently.

Last week I repaired a Triumph tank (accident damage), a Ducati (70's) and Suzuki (70's) along with some Suzuki headlamp supports, mudguards and side covers.hybrid wrote:I could probably get you a lot of tank work if you wanted it.

So Jap tanks are no worries as I have done quite a few. I also do a lot of 60's and 70's Jap mufflers. Chrome off, split along the welds, repair and re-weld.

Locally we have been impacted by the fires.
The Duggo ranch, fortunately, is a very defendable property. Others have been bulldozing firebreaks around buildings and setting up sprinklers powered by pumps.
Neighbours have been moving irreplaceable items to sheds that are away from any potential fire front.
Our shed has been full and will stay that way until the danger passes.
Prepared for the worst, hoping for the best ......

Keep safe Kerry!
We had the water bombers buzzing our house a couple of weeks ago and had to evacuate. There was an out of control grassfire less than a km away but luckily 4 choppers and a fixed wing contained it after about 4hrs.

Choppers everywhere, I track them on Flightradar24. They along with the retardant bombing aircraft, are doing a brilliant job.Dwayne wrote:Keep safe Kerry!
