      Finally got my bike on the road. I worked on it during the winter. Only some minor things to do yet, mostly aesthetic. Trying to keep it stock.

            Has anybody ever used portawall whitewall inserts? Looking for some feedback on them to see if they’re worth using.

              I stumbled across this today outside of Pickings and Parry in Melbourne. It's a freshly restored Velocette Thruxton. 😘

              I spoke to the owner, and he said that he'd got it as a box of bits. He'd originally wanted to restore is as a production racer replica, and got the parts to do that, but when he checked the chassis number with the owners club, it turned out to be a Thruxton, and worth about twice as much.

              It's a lovely looking bike, with a set of very loud pipes on it. I have serious envy…

                            One of the local dealers had the new Shoei Ex Zero in stock when I dropped by yesterday.

                            It's similar to the Bell Moto, but doesn't come with a visor in the box (as far as I know), and has a drop down visor built into it. The fit feels a bit narrower than the Bullitt across the skull, Shoei helmets tend to fit those of us with oval or long oval heads a bit better.

                            Most of the options are in plain colours, but it's available in a retro striped design too.

                            It's a pretty light helmet too.

                            I like it, though I'm not sure how noisy it is, or how good it'd be for long distance riding. (Austin Vince rides far further than any of us, and wears an open faced helmet, so I'm sure it'll be fine.) That said, I'd swap out the cheek pads for a thicker pair to tailor the fit correctly.

                              I think the Bell Moto is designed for wearing Googles, at least that is what I read somewhere @Graeme

                                  That's right.

                                  The Moto3 has a snap on peak (which is what I meant to say the Ex Zero lacks), but doesn't have the option for a face shield.

                                  The Ex Zero has a drop down face shield, but no peak in the box. I suspect that Shoei will sell one as an accessory.

                                          what would you guys recommend in the 600cc sport bike department?

                                          i've been looking at r6 from 2008 onwards plus some 675daytona and zx-6r..
