Hey what's the deal with that jump pic in your sig? It looks like the ramps are not really over the trucks. Is that a vintage pic of the Evil?

Koalas are not bears, they are marsupials
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koala
quote from wikipedia
The word koala comes from Dharuk gula. Although the vowel /u/ was originally written in the Latin alphabet as "oo" (in spellings such as coola or koolah), it was changed to "oa" probably due to an error.[3] The word is erroneously said to mean "doesn't drink".[3] Descriptive English names based on "bear" have also been inaccurately used , including 'monkey bear', 'native bear', 'tree-bear' and 'koala bear'.[3]

RE: Carburetor de-ice circuit removal.
Good job and good write-up.
I removed my carb anti-ice about a year and a half ago. There's a thread on it somewhere. The only thing I did different wasorder the RH radiator hose for a KLX300 rather than going with a hose joiner and clamps.
The reason I removed mine was because I bought a pumper carb[8D]...DOH! I didn't just plant an idea in your head did I?!
Ride-on!

Managed to get around to removing the carburetor de-ice circuit on my 07 Aus spec KLX250.
There were a couple of tricky points in the removal, so I'll describe them here for future reference.
#1. Purchase a 'Hose Joiner' to replace the metal t-piece in the radiator hose.
#7. Fit the 'Hose Joiner' where you removed the metal t-piece in the radiator hose. Tighten the hose clamps. Refit the water pump drain plug and washer, torque up. Refill the radiator. Refit the radiator cap.

Thought about that, but $2 versus $39 swayed me. OE parts are sooooo expensive.[:@]
As for a pumper, not really moving towards that goal. This bikes got to commute me during the week.
Besides! Most bikes down here are road legal, and I've got my eye on one of these when they're available.
Comes with one of these.
