Hi Mungo, Can you give us a bit more of a hint. The places people call Central Qld cover a huge area. I am only just a bit Nth of "CQ" :LOL: so you might be close. We seem to be getting a lot more Lavs around these parts. (mind you thats mainly due to AndyW's collection........)
 
Yeh so am I, hes only 3 hours away so round here thats pretty close and a lot of places in CQ are a few hours the other way so I am refering to a pretty general area - you know within say a 6 or 700  kms sweep :D  :LOL:

I'd call Proserpine &  certainly Bowen the start of N.QLD. In terms of typical QLD distances Peter is, at 260km, practically a neighbour :D. Gladstone is at least 10 hrs South along the Bruce Hwy from here. I checked for Mt Larcom on the map but it simply says 'ere be Dragons...'.. :D
 
A quick public 'Fanks' to Keith for stopping by on his recent "Rapid European Tour" and fixing the sprag on my Corsa.

Might have been an easy job for him, but I'm not sure I would have had the confidence to be so insistent with the flywheel ...

A la prochaine!

I highly recommend Keith's work having recently sorted the forks and brakes on my 77 Jota.  I am lucky that he is reasonably close to me in Scotland which is a refreshing change for such specialised services.  He was very helpful and happy to discuss the works and some extra work requested by me at the last minute. I will definitely be going back when I need his expertise. I also thought his charges were very fair.  :D 
 
I would like to say a very big THANKYOU to Keith for all the work that he has done to get my bike back on the road.

After buying my Jota and finding out from Piet that I may have a couple of bent rods, I sent my engine up to Keith where he found that this was the case.

Keith has since totally rebuilt the engine with new rods, bearings, pistons,valves, springs, repaired stripped threads, Vapour Blasted the Cases etc:

I took the freshly powder coated frame which I had rebuilt up to Keith where he reunited them, and after sorting out the wiring, brakes, starter motor and a myriad of other things and fitting a set of Mikuni's, I now have the bike back at home where I have only taken it out for a 50 mile run, but the bike rubs beautifully smooth and quiet.

I can't wait till it run in and Spring is here.

And I agree with Andy77Jota that his charges are very fair and is a pleasure to deal with. :)
