Hey Guys not sure if I will get down for Valla so I thought I would post some shots of the Machine.
It sure is a credit to the previous owners and I think Its so sweet I have never had it registard but I enjoy getting her out for a few squirts up the hills here on the farm.
A mate looks like he is planing his 50th that weekend so sorry Bill. Hart, Ken & crew prob be up in FNQ wishing I was playing in the Syncro?

Regards Pete

Hi Pete,

beautiful machine. If it ever comes on the market I'd like to be in the queue.

Very hard to find these days.

Pete,

I have just noticed the rims that are on your bus and i would like to point out that i also had the same rims on my Syncro until i put a new set of tires on them.. When the wheel nuts were tightened back up no less than 3 of the heads broke off.. They were only tightened up using a wheelbrace not a rattle gun.. When i discussed this with the guy who had supplied the tires he advised me to either have the wheels modified to suite larger nuts (with a thicker wall) or put new rims on.. I ended up putting steel Mercedes rims on...........

Anyway i hope you find this little bit of info helpful..

Cheers Tony

Tony, yes I got my van with a bag of spare nuts and had the same experence when I removed the Wheels.
Did post the issue last year and will eventually get some longer studs.
Was a little crazy for Trakka to use the standard studs. < could be grounds for a recall?????????>

Tony,
Will check the brand but from memory the holders had a German like name and let you know.
Will also check the screen protector for a brand.
At the moment shes under her covers sleeping in the shed.
Thanks Guys she is like she is because of the 20 odd years in other peoples hands. Had a great chat with the origional purchaser and like all of our machines the story was interesting.
20 odd years of bird watching.
He puhchased a Trakkado took it to his favourite out of the way creek bed campsite and got boged

They're Mercedes wheels. Trakka would not have put them on.
The nuts could be the problem if they do not go all the way in to the wheel.
They're probably standard M14 ball nuts.
