Yes I think you are right. If the bottle is empty (it now is) there is no problem. To fully disconnect, its a simple bottle valve shut and then screw off the line/fitting.



Don't think I will use it on the street. Whilst it is fun, it does have a tendancy to throw you around a little.. Experience will adjust/remedy that feeling.

Will be interested to see your thoughts once you are connected.

A little costly also!!



I'm running the single 100HP spray nozzle.

You know, before I started reading the forums here on CC, I always thought that I'd like to visit Australia. However, after reading about all the rules, regulations and minutia that you guys have to go through just to get your Cobra fix, I don't know any more. What with all the road nazis and the gun nazis it seems that Australia sometimes makes California look down right conservative. I feel for you guys!

Hi Steve

Hey still come down to visit. It's still fun driving about.

We still have fun driving around. Just need to keep an eye out for the camera cars. I recently travelled to mid Victoria in my Cobra and saw an approaching Police car in the distance. The Police car flashed his headlights at me and I checked my speed finding I was right on the speed.

I travelled a little distance and saw a late model Holden (GM) station wagon on the side of the road. It was a camera car.

They are usually easy to pick... ( I think so anyway)

It appears that this cop does not like them either..

We just drive harder and smarter..

Yes we are at the same level that you guys are at in Cal. with the 100 laws. We do not have the annual pollution checks, but do have the roadside EPA noise guys who can send you for noise level correction. Or some law abiding citizen/neighbour can drop you in if they think your noisy. Happens every now and then.

The camera guys are a private company and they are very aggressive in finding locations that yield the best returns. We have fixed cameras on bridges and most are known. Victoria is the worst with cameras on the Ring Roads and freeways and road tunnels.

..such is life.

Come down we'll drive you around....you pay the fines.

Bernie

Exclamation Big brother is watching.. or is that Big sister

Well here's one for you all.

The Queensland Government (Australia) has just called for surveillance cameras on certain beaches...

They are called for to assist Life Savers with monitoring beach goers.

.. now what is wrong with the binoculars that I use to check the beauties out..

Now you guys in Cal. have this camera equipment already, as I was laying on the beach at HB. just near the pier when I saw some kids climb on one of the small towers.

Next thing the roar of a voice over a PA from the pier tower comes over.. telling them to get off the tower.

Along the beach comes the "Baywatch" guy, muscles and all in the four wheel drive, lights flashing to kick their butt..

Woke everyone up who was a sleep on the beach....even the girls with me jumped up and put their tops on..

Guess the only difference really is the amount of silicone..

Cheers

Bernie
