Tough day today. 400km of a real mix of conditions, track types and weather. Two Riders down with some serious injuries after both bikes collided and a lot more minor ‘Offs’ in what were slippery conditions due to persistent drizzle.

    See you were having trouble with tubeless tyre seating...as an old nor West trucker we use to use a load chain and binders to reseat them.. so I was thinking in this day and age go to bunnings and buy a Ratchet n strap.. put it around the tyre then ratchet it down Hope it helps.

      @@paulfarrell-n3f I have used straps at times to help seal the bead. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn’t. I now carry a bicycle tube (it also works with a length of rope) which you sit around the rim, partially inflate and that bridges the air gap between tyre and rim (hard to visualise and explain). czcams.com/video/tBuDNUsgs0k/video.htmlsi=f_ULQJ_D89U3Cab4 Thanks for watching.

    Great vid Steve, Oh I remember very well the old Highway thought Gunning, and some of the other towns , the highways in the early seventies were so dangerous ( About 5 times todays road toll) that it was a serious consideration whether to travel at peak times , like Easter etc. despite complaints and the odd tragedy riding is far better now days that it was. Those rose coloured glasses were very deceptive.

    I know that bridge in the thumbnail very very well, i drive over it all the time, born and bred in that town. The bridge dates from 1881 and has seen a fair few major floods, one of the biggest in 1955. Really enjoy seeing your videos, one of the first i saw was where you were crossing the Nullarbor. I don't ride a bike myself but it always looks like a lot of fun.

    You were not the first in a Dmax fr testosterone happen to. You were number 3. Others had the axel housing break of much closer to the differential. The cost of one recovery was in excess of $18000.00. Mitsubishi Pajeros ,early models had the same problems. A lot were taken into Mount Newman for repairs during which gussets were added to the housing to prevent further damage. Roof racks of the strongest quality should be fitted. And not overloaded. 47 trips on the Canning over31 years thought us a lot. Happy travelling in the future.
