  1. Hang on, so you say that the scalpel blades are the same as the Havalon but they are no good for cutting up the deer but the Havalon is?

    I have cut up two sambar with my scalpel and its been great. Went through about 6 blades on each.

    Just pointing out that there is a cheaper alternative to the Havalon :)

  2. i pay lil to no attention to the color of the clothes i wear while hunting and have yet to be busted cause i was wearing blue or blaze or whatever.....

    That comment reminds me of the saying "what came first the chicken or the egg"

    How do you know you where not sprung? Have you ever seen a deer sneak off without a sound? Have you ever come across fresh tracks? A fresh vacated bed? If you go hunting enough I bet you a bazillion dollars a deer has sprung you without you even knowing.

    Maybe due to your bright blue jeans and flanny.... maybe not.... one of lifes great mysteries.... might the answer be 42? *shrugs*

  3. Its designed to stand out to everyone including colourblind hunters of which I am sure there are quite a few amongst us.....thats got nothing to do with gloves and masks...

    I think you missed the point. If it was that important to stand out in the bush from your mates but hide from the animals why would you have your face and hands uncovered which stand out like "you know what" to animals... if you dont believe me get a mate to stand in the forest in FULL camo and then with face and hands showing and tell me what you observe.

    No ones having a go at anyone, its a good video to post, promotes discussion. Some people around here get a bit antsy *shrugs*

  4. You can get away with just a knobby for the rear for traction. I paid $80 fitted for mine. Im still using the standard front and haven't had a puncture yet. Im not a speed daemon though, dont really want to bin it (and damage by rifle haha). If you want to go max stick all over the joint maybe a knobby for the front is better :)

    Although, you may know all of the above anyway in which case carry on...

  5. Bike is registered.

    Those 140cc engine swaps are no good keith. Not only are the engines shat china ones (reliability will be an issue which is a massive plus using a postie) but they also have a hand clutch.

    That old boiler is hard to get to. Its closed behind gates for most of the year and covered in snow.

    Have a guess where it is johnny, I would be curious to see if you know!

  6. Its me Duncs

    I put my rifle in my backpack (as it has a carry spot for it) and then put the pack in the luggage rack. Its perfect, as I dont have any weight on my back and can control the bike perfect. I have also had my day pack, which I put on the rear rack and sling my rifle over my back.

    Postie bike is the best IMO as it has no hand clutch so you get alot of control, especially on the steep stuff. Ground clearance is fine. It really doesnt matter, as you can ride around every obstacle anyway. Im yet to find a spot that I couldn't get to.

    The only downside is the power. I geared it down as much as I could go without buying a massive rear sprocket and it goes up alot of places. One hill I couldn't get up so I had to walk next to it.

    The best one would be one of the low range CT110's. But only the new ones can be registered and they cost almost $5,000. $800 from the auctions and $20 for a front sprocket is alot better value.

  7. Its a HID Xenon, thats freakin wicked! Run time would be pretty low I suspect (as fenring mentioned). Plug it into your cigarette lighter (if possible) and spotlight with it. I would love to see it in action? got any web address details or product names so I can google?
