It looks like you have some nice roads. Next time, maybe you can give us a video of the off-road trips you often do.

Thanks Thor
The foliage over the road is a result of rampant tropical vegetation, & is not there on purpose.
In fact the transport dept spend a lot of money, during the Dry Deason, keeping it trimmed.
But they're too busy clearing fallen trees off the roads, to do much about it in the Wet, & that's when the growth really takes off.
It's almost a total canopy by the end of the Wet (May)
I'm waiting for the rain to clear for a few days. So the Sun can dry out Black Mountain Rd enough for me to get to the Quaide Rd (A privately owned abandoned Hwy in the jungle). Where I can open up the Scrambler for all to hear, without fear of the legal consequences (Qld rd rules don't apply there). As I've no intention of posting illegal activities under this handle (I've posted my rego no here too many times)
I'll be heading out west into Scrambler Heaven soon (not as wet out that way now) But I've still a few teething problems to sort out. first
I wasn't happy with the camera on the master cylinder.
It had far too much vibration, & the picture had really bad deff.
I'm also having problems keeping the plug in the recording unit, & it's only got to come loose by a mm to lose the picture

I think this may be a fault (has anybody else encountered this) & if it keeps happening, I'll be emailing motocom pretty soon, to get them to remedy it
