Re: KTM 1290 Adventure ...

What are KTM thinking about with that stupid exhaust, why not put it up under the seat
so both panniers can be the same size. The 990 exhausts were great why change them.

Re: Recommend me a Chain oiler.......

Ive put an automatic Tutoro on my XT660Z, fantastic, it drips oil down both sedes of the rear sprocket, I did have to make my own bracket to make it a bit more secure.
Had Scott oilers before, Get the best one the make, you won't be disapointed.

Has anyone tried these yet instead of TKC 80's, was thinking of fitting them to a XT660Z tenere, I see they are fitted to the triumph 800.

Re: Binoculars

I looked long and hard, for the best travel pair and came up with Steiner 10.5 x 28 wildlife pro's well pleased, not the cheapest but will be the last pair I ever buy.

Re: Cornwall -

The road between St Ives and Land's end is great , both ways, there are old tin mines, and if you hug the coastal paths you can do a bit of "off roading" we normally do these bits mid week in the winter so we don't upset anyone. Cape cornwall is a must. If your down near the Lizard try out...

Re: newbie from exmoor

Great to have another new member from the west country.
Exmoor is one of my favourite places to ride, i love the winter up there, no tourists. I see you fancy a KTM adventure, I had one for 2 years, fantastic bike, never let me down, The Orange one's are faster. I'm only in holsworthy.
