TS, I think you have mistaken the booking of stuffs.

Pracs 1? Booking takes so long? Cant be. Unless he is pushing to do it doing weekends or evening hours.

I've had experience that I need to redo a lesson, i can easily book it in the afternoon to complete it.

Thats where I learn to always go during weekdays, preferably a morning and the same afternoon to complete my pracs. It was even possible to clear one lesson/prac in one day.

Booking practical lessons is no hassel. If you are early you can always get a slot in the available days, in the week or the next. Its best to book immediately after you have finished a practical lesson, because you need to know first if you have to repeat a practical lesson or progress to the next stage.

But for the TP test, you can only book for the test date after you pass your centre's assessment test.

If you want you 2B, just go register at any of the centres and start your practical. How soon you get your licence depend on how fast you develop your riding skills. You havn't start your riding lessons yet, and you are griping about test dates.

yeah you got a point there

A friend of mine from MN USA has a ball like thingy. What it does was have the bike in the centre of that transparent ball, pumped up with air but suck out the moisture.

Dont think Sydney will need that kind of contraptions.

try to get a loan from the bank, and use your bike as a guarantee.

than pay back the loan when you come back for your bike.

for 4 mths. you might wana consult your owners manual. for more details. i belive some of them even advise on pouring a little engine oil into the spark plug holes (jus a tiny capful) this will help lub the black and keep yr piston rings from drying out and sticking. pls use very little or u will have a hell of a time starting your bike and get carbon build up after.

also prop your bike on its mainstand (supposed to eliminate stress on the suspensions and warping of tyres) and cable tie your clutch lever to your handle. this will prevent the cluch plates from sticking.

and for 4mths i hope u have a secure parking area like a locked garage. a stationary bike will attract theives.

thanks ^^

the clutch one is helpful

main things for you to do -

disconnect your battery terminals. and

drain the fuel from yr carbs with the fuel cock turned to off. best to drain yr tank too if yr not lazy.

thanks for the info (:

edit: i'll be leaving for singapore in 2 weeks but i wouldn't be back in sydney for another 4 months.

hey guys

i'm going to be leaving sydney for singapore in less than 2 weeks time and i'm wondering if anybody can offer any tips for motorcycle long term storage (around 4 months)?

heard and read bits of tips here and there like spraying wd40 on parts that are likely to corrode, propping the bike up on the centre stand and using blocks of wood to lift the tires off the ground, etc...

anything else i should be considering?
