You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.

looks good 8) but if you parked that thing within a 100 mile radius of where i live every teenager in the area would be breaking into it and your shed looking for the moto-x bikes that go with it :cry: im afraid where i live if youve got a crosser youve got to transport and store it without anyone seeing it :twisted:

cheers for posting pics up for me

as you can see van is kept in a garage forecourt surrounded by a hi fence and walls.

still have a few more bits and pieces to do to it but the out sides nearly finished.

im hoping by the time i get back from holiday it should be finished as im needing it for my son`s first mot-x race in june.

i was abit concerned where to put the lcd but after putting 7 screws into wood above the side door think that should be enough.

its taking time(and alot of cash)but these things always keep there value(thank f***)
also has a 60 gallon water tank underneath and the new rear suspension seems to be holding up with it full.

as for the rear step it used to be double the size(will try find pics)and boy was it a pain in the arse driving around town.
walls and other cars did get it with the over hang.

its the same in most places mate :( because crossers and trials bikes 90% of them arent road registered there harder to trace when stolen :( easy money for the criminal :evil: mine has a bloody great big anchor concreted in the ground with a huge padlock and chain but that wont stop them i know of someone in my club who had there bike stolen when it was in pieces :shock: and another they lifted his bike over a 6ft fence :shock: thats why mine go's inside the van when travelling :D

You are racing in motocross rallye?

Or you are one of that tourists who are traveling with luxury camper, and they need have Honda GoldWing motorbike along for trips 2-3 miles from camping place :) ?

(eventually someone has the Smart car on trailer behind camper van :) )
