To make it an official MBc ride do all riders have to be a registered member? I guess a group is more than one.

If we ride together would it be the first organised group ride in Australia????

I would like to have that tag so will help him to register anyway!!!!

We could call it the Light Beer Run.... you would not want to get too much into ya as it is not legal to ride a bike while drunk in OZ.

We would give the Adelaide ride a go

Dunno about the first organised ride, would definitely bring some attention too yourselves though, dunno if thats too good an idea with the bikes being illegal and all...

To add to the roll-call, I'm in Nowra NSW and ride a latest series ZBox 66cc engine on a new Malvern Star 'Octane' MTB frame. (182km on the clock)

I agree with AussieJester. I think that we're on thin ice already, depending on the area that you live in. Here, the cops seem to be fairly tolerant (so far).

If it is a new motor it will still be very tight and won't idle untill you get a few kilometers on it. other wise check the petrol flow down the fuel line, as the petrol valve filter was a bit crushed on the one i got and restricted the flow untill i corrected it. It should have about 3-4 cm of fuel in the line at the carby end, when you push the primer on the carby the petrol should still be visable not totaly gone and replenish straight away. you can try changing the circlip position on the carby needle. plug gap, or a good quality plug, etc, etc.

ps. also take off the exhaust and carby manifolds and file them out to the pipe size as the pipe is larger than the hole they have drilled this restricts the flow and decreases performance. Cut the tube attached to the cap on the end of the muffler back to about 30mm this will also give you some more power and a bit more noise.
