Small update: We did it! The bike is race ready for Dirtquake #, thanks for the help everyone, especially you BC!
We couldn't have done it without you :)
Dropped my phone in the toilet this week so no instagram updates lately, sorry about that! You might have followed the progress on my brothers instagram: Martin_Schuurmans. We had some problems last weekend but we managed to get the GR650 Dirtquake ready :)
I convinced my Martin to come along to Dirtquake after I let him test ride the bike, haha. First time for him on a motorbike. Let's hope he's hooked from now on. My boss will give me the last two hours off on Friday so we're leaving Amsterdam around 15.00 hour this friday.
Just booked the Eurotunnel train at 22.30 so we're gonna arrive late in Norfolk but it looks we're gonna make it..!
Now I'm getting real nervous, ha!
Aaahhh!!
Trying to get ready for Dirtquake!!!
Bought my first car (Daihatsu gran move) to get there. Still need to find out if I can fit the GR650 in the car...! New wheels arrived, looking great!
Could use some help. :) Yesterday we wanted to change the oil, normally it contains 2.4 liter of oil.
It flowed out much faster than normal and it didn't stop after 2.4 liters. I think it was something like 5 liters this time and it smelled like gasoline, shit!
So how can that happen?
Troubles with the carbs is my first guess. Have to find out this weekend because I'm leaving to Dirtquake next Friday! Oh, who's also planning to go to Dirtquake this year? More Dutch guys?
Leaving Amsterdam on friday around 17.00 hour. Still have to see hom much space I have left in the Gran Move but I think I have an extra spot left in my car so if you would like to go to Dirtquake send me an email. lennardschuurmansATgmail.com
