A good friend of mine picked up a GS450h in Nov last year and I have asked him to come along, however he probably won't.

Have been looking at the route - when you come down the North side of Mt Mee you can turn left and go through Woodford, turn right a few km's past Woodford then up the Peachester Range. At the top of the range turn left across to Maleny then along to Montville.

You don't need to go out to the highway and back up.

Graham, I agree with you..
I have been that route only once (woodford, peachester...) very nice scenery. a bit tricky at some area, need to be careful not to become lost...

If you know the route well, could you take the lead from Mt. Mee onward? or maybe Josh knows those roads like back of his hand??..

Josh, I have ask my borther to contact Dr. X3000. so still waiting for reply. :D

No problem - pretty easy to find that way. Some good corners too.

Hey Ben - check out my signature - catching up to you now I have joined the 2 wheel set again.

I found the Ninja's to uncomfortable, but they are usually the most powerful in their class. The new '07 R1 is one sexy beast and I would love to get my hands on one of those suckers!!
Yeah, my folks didn't want me to buy a bike either.. But I went out and just did it, mum would call me everytime she knew i was on it for the first month to make sure i got to my destination etc etc.. I've only been riding a couple of years, but you see some ugly things on bikes.. If and when you get one, show self control and be careful ;)

he is currently working in BNE. he might meet us @ Mt. Coot-tha in the morning.

Anyone travelling alone? can give him a ride?

I will be taking passengers myself. and heading other places after we reach
Montville..

I'll have my gf with me.. It's a tight squeeze in the back, but happy to take passengers..

I won't be going home after the cruise tho, heading to Pomona. Don't know if that helps at all.

I will be backtracking down the Peachester range, across to Kilcoy back home. All up it's about a 7hr drive for me on Sunday.

Hey all this sucks after all this waiting I don't think i'll be able to make it as plans have been made by my friends to go to byron and they need someone with a 4 seater to drive down :(

I wish i could do both but really I don't have much of a choice here.
If i'm not leaving early in the morn i'll try to pop into mt cootha to say hi!
If i don't make it have an excellent day everyone and drive fast but safe!

If you come over to Mt Cootha you will be able to see a 1JZ in the IS200 you have been asking about. I'll even lift the bonnet for you to see.
