hi caiman,


i live in sydney as well. could you tell me where you bought the tyres from? ebay? from a shop?

also, how much mileage have you done on them, been to the track on them? etc.

what other tyres did you consider? im thinkin between these or the new dunlop sportsmart sportmax.

thanks man,
supermono31

Got them from Mick's Car and Bike tyres in brisbane for $360, ordered/paid over the phone, had 'em next day. 120/70 and 160/60. Havent done many km on them, under 500km, other options were Pirelli SC's ($400+), Goldspeed Street Ultra ($430) or Bridgestone 003 RS ($360ish). Hoping to get to Marulan and Eastern Creek Karts on the 10th and 12th of next month to try them out on track

On the road (thru the RNP) they sticky pretty well (so far!). Even in the damp they stuck better than the stock diablo's did in the dry.

I just bought the same slider kit you have for my TE630, but I'm having some fitting issues with the front axle set. Are the SM fork legs closer together than the TE? In the kit I got, the bolt is too short.

Also, the AL spacer on the right side (the open side without the hex hole) doesn't fit into the axle. So, there's nothing to keep the slider from shifting around in a crash. I'm working with Motostrano to get something that fits.

The smr uses 50mm forks, spaced 205mm apart (not sure if from fork Centre to Centre, will check when i get home), i think the sm630 uses 45mm zokes with different spacing, no idea on a te630.

Here are the measurements I took of my TE630 front axle & fork legs.

Inner diameter, right side
23.25mm

Outer diameter, both sides
27.75mm

Inner diameter, left side
12mm Hex Key

Axle length installed on bike
233.36mm

I cbf taking the slider off since it's loctited on, axle width from outside of the nut (on the left) to edge of the fork bottom (on the right) is ~225mm.

EDIT; I'd have a go at buying some threaded rod and nyloc nuts to replace the rod the sliders come with, although due to the diamater it might be prone to bending more easily.

The fork sliders aren't a critical piece, really. The forks don't even touch the ground when the bike falls over. The handguards take most of the abuse.

I have a local fastener place that has every nut & bolt known to man in a huge warehouse. There's a grumpy old man at the counter. You tell him what you want, he grunts at you and goes and gets it. I can probably get a longer rod there. I'll wait and see what motostrano says first.

Hi mate, chasing one of those pipe guards myself but can find it in wheeling cycles?
any more info on these guards ? would appreciate it...

Whats the story on that seat?

The bike came with two seats. The other (original) is not in good shape so I've been using this one.

who does the headlight / blinkers?
id love one of them?

I added a rear rack. Works great to bring home sweaty gear, leftover watermelon etc.

I'm kinda diggin' the rack. What brand is it? Do You have to drill into the subframe?

Your bike look graet. Where did you get the header protector?

I ordered it from Bill's Motorcycles Plus www.billshusky.com nice people to deal with. No drilling, had to work a bit to fit it on between the plastic and the frame. They suggested drilling holes larger and using bigger bolts than the ones provided, but I haven't had any problems with the small ones. The rack is pretty sturdy too, survived a couple falls in the deep sand yesterday and makes a nice handle for picking up the bike.

Hey mate it is a Pirie Performance P3 Carbon Fiber Pipe Guard, just do a search on google to try and find one closer to you. On ebay they have them for $60US plus postage. Hope this helps.

Thanks..
