Re: Crf 250 Rally Tyre Advice

I've got Mitas E07 on my drz which have served well but feel like a big heavy tyre to me. Have been wearing very well. For my next set I'll be looking at Motoz tyres. They do a great range and get some excellent reviews and seem reasonably priced. A good guide for their range https://www.adventuresp...

Re: P&O

They haven't gone tits up. They just fired all their "Jersey-contracted" based staff. Supposedly, coaches carrying replacement agency staff were reported to be standing by at Dover and Hull. They have entered into a new partnership with International Ferry Management (IFM) who are an inter...

Re: The Suzuki DR thread.

What exhausts are people running on their DRZ400? I use the bike for green lanes and adventure riding so looking for quiet really and any weight saving or reduction in heat is nice. I've currently got a standard S header with the token patina and a random Remus can the previous owner forced on. Seen...

Re: Portugal

That'll be the BMW Off Road Skills tour.
I noticed Simon Hewitt (Welsh dakar finisher) put a story up a week or so ago, I believe Si Pavey was there too.

If you have facebook they posted about it too

Re: Sunderland on the Gaser can he do it?

What about Petrux?!! Fuse/fuel pump issue on stage 2 meant he was officially out of the general ranking but Dakar still tracked all the times. He finished overall 90th with 12h5m of penalties, without those he was 8h38m behind which would be about 42nd. Joker meant he could restart for the followin...

Re: Camp shoes. What do you wear?

Tbh when I'm packing I'll be in my bike gear because I'll try and get as much as possible packed. Saying that I always have a pair of flip flops regardless, basically wipe dry or you can just attach them to the outside of your luggage. I've also used Karrimor "walking sandals". They're lik...

Re: a warning from iphone

Pretty well reported that this can happen to any phone solidly mounted to virtually any bike. So everyone (not just iphone users) should consider it when mounting their phone. This has only resurfaced now because Apple have made a statement about it. If Samsung made the same announcement then that w...

Re: triumph tiger sport 660

By all accounts the Trident 660 is a peach and the Tiger Sport has a good riding position. This should make for a great all rounder!

Re: Triumph

With a competitive “pre65” Tiger Cub now costing £7K+ perhaps we’ll see a new Tiger Cub appear? I saw a Triumph Bobber yesterday while I was out on the Fantic & it crossed my mind what they were thinking when they designed that, surely there’s not that many hipsters about? It would probably be ...
