750 K2 Strip & Rebuild - help please
Lobo:
Thanks guys for the kind words upon completion of the K2 - appreciated.
No comments as to the deletion of the pillion footrests … it’s an Oz thing. Over here (QLD at least), there is no annual MOT, rather a ‘Roadworthy’ test is only required at every change of ownership (£60 thereabouts). There is however a stiff annual Registration fee which includes CTP (compulsory third party) insurance - and this goes into a state pot to take care of all road accident hospital fees - life changing care costs included. Whether an individual decides to then go out and buy further insurances … theft, fire, liability etc … is entirely up to him.
Long winded, sorry… but if you declare the machine will never carry a pillion you can lessen that CTP figure significantly, in which case you have to remove the footrests. (My solo CPTs circa now £260 each - ugh)
Anyways, tbh, it took me a while, but on balance I reckon I prefer the above to what we have in the UK.
