Re: What performance from standard 350LC ?

Another example of this is a certain sydney wreckers where they have boxes of light units and bodywork panels in a few boxes. all jumbled up and all getting more scratched everytime someone looks thru the box. you find a part you can make work for you and take it to the counter thinking this must be...

Re: What performance from standard 350LC ?

It's a bit like getting into a Sydney Cab and then having to give the driver directions every turn, and have them get the shits at taking a credit card or because the fare wasnt high enough, why offer the service in the first place ?

Re: What performance from standard 350LC ?

Yeah the whole Rip off Aus comes back to haunt us. Our currency isnt helping as locally people still want the same price in Au$, yet the OS items are now cheaper for us due to teh X-rate, and for those in Sydney we also pay Sydney mark up and that's just not funny at all.

Re: NSW '83 RZ frame tabs,brackets etc cutting up bent frame.

Good on ya for offering Jason! must be something useful on there... the lower cradle would be useful for anyone doing a custom fit RZ engine in another bike, and im sure the rear end is useful if anyone has a bent one.
