Nice one on the bleeding!
As to those tyres... jealous! I'm having so much trouble finding dual sports for my 450 as it seems noone in Brissie that has an online presence stocks Shinko... and they're the only ones I can find that have suitable 18" front and rear dual sports...

My good man,
No one in vic stocked them either. I got them from a place in Sydney on Ebay. They shipped them both for $20 (both tyres!). Cost me $250 all up.
Here is the info. I suggest emailing them instead of buying on ebay as they will combine the postage.
Check this link. This is what I got i love ebay.

Looking good Sam. Make sure you don't have air being drawn in at the bleed nipples, TomMLC had that problem with some new bleed nipples he fitted. They didn't leak fluid but did let in air.
Think he finally solved it with a different set of bleeders. Maybe speed bleeders.

I agree they look great! But the "taller curve" is partly due to /80 profile. /90 would be more appropriate for the rim and would have less "curve".
Sam, if you wouldn't mind posting on how they hold ON road once you break them in that would be great... cos they look really awesome

Cheers for that! I just read in AMCN the other week that there's a new dealer or something in Sydney called "Trooper Lu", so I'm guessing this is their eBay presence...
I'll check 'em out and see if they carry anything in my 450's size...

Sorry for the excitement. It turns out that Hoosier, sent me a PM, possibly to avoid embarrassing me...about my bleeding issue on my calipers.
Firstly. He pointed out that my bleeder in the previous pics, are on the bottom of the caliper. They should be up the top...I put them on the wrong sides, and thus, upside down, and thus allowing the air to be traped up the top and i was bleeding from teh bottom.
I swapped them when i got home from work, and 5 mins of bleeding, I had a rock solid brake lever. I spent days on this, with nothing, then 5 mins of it (the right way up) and I have brakes as solid as boulder.
Thanks Hoosier! Life saver wont be making that mistake again lol

Good to hear you got the problem sorted.
Yes, Hoosier Daddy has an eye for detail for sure, its those funky disks that everyone was drooling over you see, no one else even saw calipers, let alone bleeding nipples.
The man could probably tell you what colour eyes the girl with the low cleavage and big boobs has too.:lol:

Hey oohsam..
I've just made my return to the land of the living and the forums.
The bike looks great.
I wondered about a red frame myself and wasn't sure but seeing yours has confirmed it. Brilliant.
Where abouts are you based?

Hey Leigh!
Welcome back my good friend!
I'm also south of melbourne - Berwick. I'm sure you know where it is.
Feel free to pop in any time. My garage is your garage. I have lots of good tools that can be of use if ever required. I can't guarantee my knowledge but I'll give anything a crack!
PS. Thanks. I wasn't sure bout red either, but thought, what the hell.

Sort of.
It'd be cool to come up one weekend and check the progress.
