Re: The Honda Africa twin 1000 , warts and all.

I jumped onto the KTM 950 adv s the other day and I went to honda's open day for the new Africa Twin. When I had a good look over the bike I liked it. It looks very nice. I put my name down for the test ride and watch as some before me had trouble getting on the bike and their dreams where smashed b...

Re: wk-450RX-ENDURO

Any up dates on these gents. What issues have you had. Did you change the offending item with a crf 450 part if there where issues.

What is the standard suspension like. Is it similar to a crf or what's the crack?
Long term experience?

Re: CB500x Rally Raid Stage 3

It won't replace my 640 a that's for sure but I need something with good fueling for commuting and working on so I have decided that it's worth getting the money together for the new bike so I'm flat out saving and at €6900 new here it's a cheap bike when compared to others and if you do spend on th...

Re: CB500x Rally Raid Stage 3

A friend of mine just bought one and it's in rally raid at the minute getting the stage 3 kit fitted. It has me very interested as I love the look of the bike with the kit on and everything else about the bike just seems to make sense. When he collects the bike from the dealer in January with its 16...

Re: A photo you took, today

Spur of the moment. Headed for the Dublin mountains to look for a few trails. Turned out to be a day of meeting new friends, finding new tracks. Attempting new gradients of decent, riding faster on the trails. Standing as much as possible. Trying new riding tecneques. Turned into an amazing day with...

Re: Best tyres for 1150gsa with Mrs and panniers on tarmac?

I'm a mitas convert. Not on a GS but on the 950 adv s. It distroyed the first five tyres I put on it in less the 4000 km each. The mitas e07 I have on it now are after crossing 10,000 Kms and have about 1000 left on them. Might be worth a look. Their cheap then the rest to.
