Here's my goofy rear end tooling around a parking lot on my FRZ600. It has a YZF front end and I took off the lower fairings (I think it looks better) but other than that, I've just spent a bunch of money making it less of a mess. I almost never see the powerband because I live in the city and there's nowhere to open up

Here's a lovely picture of my KLR on Highway 33 a month and change ago. I actually took it into some proper dirt Thanksgiving weekend, but I, of course, didn't have my camera

buildmyrigdotcom posted:I made the mistake of buying Icon Field Armor boots and besides being quite uncomfortable, they are the squeakiest crap known to man. They felt like they offered a lot of protection, at least, and were pretty fine to wear when not walking. Your first mistake was even thinking of buying Icon gear of any type

Tsaven Nava posted:I actually sat on an XR1200 when I was at the HD dealer yesterday, and was really surprised. It felt like it would be a ton of fun and a great bike to ride, gave the feeling of being really light and nimble (Although as I check their site, holy gently caress 562lbs dry) I rode one about a year ago and it didn't feel nearly that heavy, actually I found it pretty fun although I hate how Harley does turn signals.

wilkenm posted:Well, after this weekend's rain, Big Tujunga is closed due to flooding and a few mud slides. It should be cleared out enough to drive in a couple days, but give it a few more weeks for the dried mud to be worn off the road. Actually, Big Tujunga dumps you out onto Angeles Forest Highway, not Angeles Crest Highway, but that's just nitpicking. Of the Angeles Forest roads, its my second-favorite behind Little Tujunga. That one is nice and long and is sparsely traveled, compared to the Angeles Crest stuff anyway.

Ola posted:I think the TDM has been phased out. Africa Twin as well. Honda currently has (on the Norwegian amrket anyway) two adventure twins, Transalp (middleweight) and Varadero (1000cc). We don't get either of those but we do get the loving Dullville. Honda's two-wheeled offerings are getting as boring as their four-wheeled ones.

(I'm glad my free sub ran out. Z3n > Ari Henning.) I saw it parked out back. Looked like it would fall apart just by looking at it. I really need to start hanging out with the MC guys more so I can get test rides.
