not a proper adventure bike

[Godspeed]

He’s absolutely right. A single is the only true adventure bike engine configuration

I'd like to hear what the GS bell end rider had to say about my Chinese bike

Hmm, I reckon this thread is a thinly veiled contrivance intended to act as nothing more than a GS Rider bashing thread.
Very naughty, didn't anyone ever tell you its poor form to mock the afflicted?

I agree and I don’t think it really happened, seems a strange first post, but hey ho, ‘tis what it is...

I was joking, I have absolutely nothing against GS Rider Bashing in fact I think it should be an olympic sport complete with crash test dummies in brand new twat suits for competitors to throw rotton tomatoes at

I've went round the Bardenas on my old Fazer 1000...does that count as an 'adventure'? Seriously, any trip (preferably a long one) on any bike, regardless of whether it's on the dirt or the tarmac, is an adventure in my opinion .

I used to be a customer at BVM in Stroud when they sold trials bikes and BMs.

Needed some bits for my GasGas, and called in on my KTM 950.

Was assailed by a BMW rider who wanted to engage me in a long debate about the failure of KTM's marketing dept to engage Charlie and Chubby to ride their bikes on the Wrong Way Over, or whatever it was called.

Blah blah blah.

I politely cut him short by pointing out the large number of used low-mile GS horizontal twins gathering dust in the showroom that had been sold to people who couldn't ride them either.

he told me that my tiger 800 xcx was not an adventure bike

That's because there's one too many x's in the name. Now if it was my 800xc that would definitely be an adventure bike.
Perhaps my XS1100 would qualify because it's got an X and a S in its name. Or my XJR1200 as that's a 1200.
