Venox 250 / Re: Is anyone out there ?
« on: August 06, 2016, 09:39:08 AM »
Hey there weapon ... you'll get a laugh out of this mate ... when I read your reply this morning, I thought " holy crap " .. weapon's done 10000 ks since March !! where the heck has he been friggin well riding to ? THEN .. I went back and read your thread properly and saw that you said 2014 ! You had me going there for a minute though ol mate 
. So .. I guess you've been having some pretty nice little rides around your way. Some excellent riding up around Maleny and Glasshouse etc hey, and the coastal cruises too .. a lot like down this way. We're spoilt little mongrels aren't we. But that's okay, so long as we bloody well appreciate it I reckon ! Anyway .. you've probably got the service manual already, but if you haven't, I've got the printed hard copies of the service manual and parts manual if you want them. I've also got two new genuine Kymco oil filters and air filters, plus a brand new chain slider .. all new and in there unopened packaging if you want them. And no .. I don't want anything for them ! Unlike ol Venoxboy or what ever his name was from way back. I'm quite happy to give them to a fellow rider. Maybe we should jump on the bikes and meet up half way or something ... maybe around the Bay somewhere. The Redland Bay pub's a nice spot. I can bring them up with me .. have you got saddle bags or a tail bag that you can carry them home in ? Anyway, it's up to you mate ... as I said, if you want them you're more than welcome to them. And you can't get much cheaper than free, hey . Here you go weapon .. this one of the pony is from a little while back out near Hinze Dam on the Numinbah Valley run ...

Hey there weaponfx ... a big hello from Gold Coast mate. Huge congrats on the bike ... what a bloody score !! 2300 bucks for a brand new venox .. you must be feeling pretty damn pleased with yourself. I know I would. They are a great little machine mate. I had the pony for over four years and all of the 17000 ks I put on her were all out on real rides. I didn't use her for commuting at all. As I always said in the " Great Little Pony " thread ... she took me where all the bigger bikes were going ! Break her in properly mate. For, starters, don't do what that stupid owners manual says to not exceed 60 klm for the first 1000 ks I think it said. To run any motor in properly, you need to vary your speeds. Gently open her right up and gently back off to work those pistons right up her cylinders .. err if you know what I mean 
. Sitting on a constant speed all the time is the worst thing you can do for a new motor.

Hey there de dee. Go for it mate !! Just pick your spot carefully to do it though hey. I dunno what cops are like over your side of the planet, but over here the pricks have got no sense of humour at all when it comes to that sort of stuff. BUT .. when you do it, you'll be officially entitled to wear one of these badges ...

Hey there Karl. How are you going mate ? Hope you've been finding some time to get some nice rides in here and there. All joke aside though mate, that little pony of mine was just about friggin bullet proof ! The rides that little thing took me on was pretty bloody amazing to be quite honest. As I always said, she took me where all the bigger bikes were going, and didn't seem to mind, even though I was probably working her pretty hard. A damn tough little " brumby ". And as I said a while back in the " Great Little Pony " thread, and I still firmly believe, that if ol Mr Kymco had put this bike out in a 500 or 650 , don't change the looks or anything because she was a damn smart looking bike, just the bigger engine, they would have had an absolute mid range market stealer !

Hey there Stig, Karl and de dee. Hope you guys are all good.
Righto .. First up .. G'day Stig. Yep .. it's winter down under ol mate, but as I just mentioned in the eye candy section, I am up in Queensland, so we do get it pretty good here. Today was about 23c, and last weekend it was up around 28c , so I'd be a bit rude to complain about that for winter hey. Good on you for firing the big " Burg " up mate ... get on out there. Not to take anything away from your Like though, you've got that little baby looking real nice Amigo. And hey mate, I specifically took this particular photo for you from todays little blatt because I know you like the ocean shots.

G'day there Mr Paul ... err, is it okay if I just call you Paul ? We're a bit of a casual lot down here in the colonies ol mate . Anyway, to answer your question .. had a bit of a coastal run on Black Beauty this morning, temp about 23c here ... not too shabby for a winters day hey. Bearing in mind I'm up in Queensland though, and we do get it pretty easy up here I do have to admit. Last weekend , it was up around 28c. Here's a couple of coastal shots from todays ride that I'd promised ...

C'mon guys ... surely someone has got something else to say about the Venox. They're a great little motorcycle ! The pony was a bloody tough little nugget. She took me on all the big rides, and never let me down ! So ... can someone do, or say SOMETHING ??

Hey there guys. I'll get some coastal pics for you soon. Hey Dan ... I'm in Queensland , Adelaide is a couple of thousand k's down the road (and that's going the "quick way " inland ) in South Australia. I reckon she'd be a bit nippy down there right now ol mate.
