Crush it dood.

Excellent. Do you carry a small cooler?

Dakar stoke is building.

I put 35k on an old KLR and a solid chapter in my life. It only hurt me in what I put it through. It's basically a handicapped tractor that is good at nothing. It's like a CT got tall. Basically...

Sad pants are sad.

Your advice was fucking horrible. If you don't have modern applicable suggestions, then STFU.

I've owned XR400r's, XR500, XR650R and ridden a shitton of TW's. None of them are solid suggestions....

Username checks out.

I did an iron butt once on my first day of riding for that year as an April Fools Day surprise. It didn't end well, and I'll never do one by choice again.

That's an R100GS. It has 980cc's.

That's an R100GS.

That road is sweet.

Sure. The only thing illegal about that in Colorado is lack of eye protection.

I didn't mean to directly compare the KLR and the AT in that way. The KLR is a dog. But they both seem bloated to me in their current forms. The Tenere just seems like a perfect balance for what...

I've been looking at the T-7 for the last few years and really can't find much wrong with it. The AT seems like a pig to me, like my old KLR.

Frog Togs. Cheap, really cheap, lightweight, and waterproof. I go through a pair in 2 seasons. So easy.

Long time coming, congrats. My shit is 80's old and all leather, but for hot days I bust out some klim. Smart move, I've seriously fucked my body up on my motos. The best thing you can do is buy a...

Looking for a bike with dual sport capabilities, cares about looks, doesn't want a dual sport.

Are you that dumb? Maybe just learn to ride a street bike on gravel.

My neighbor is doing almost this but with a bobber fuck you blacked out job on an xr500r he's been painstakingly powdercoating and stripping and upgrading everything from the frame up for the last 2...

Hell yeah!

My long-time neighbor had a few of these. For what a hog of an engine (pun), the short wheelbase made it immensely flickable. Ridiculously so.

The VFR is a close 2nd, but this would be my first:

I always used it as a place to tuck my gloves.

I can't even imagine the carnage if she were to go down. Ouch all around.

I have a throttle lock that I never use, even for big big days. But, I do find my crampbuster absolutely essential for my wrists and tendons.

Take a right at Maybell yields nice results.

Make one out of tyvek from the jobsite.

That's a good machine. 18 years ago, I taught one of my great friends how to ride on that bike. It was fun to jump on his and have him on my 650 and I just winded that thing out. Great bike. You...

TA to TP is a great ride.

"If you see this bike on a trailer, call 911".

I've, learned from 30 years of owning and riding, that motorcycles are just like women, you always have to compromise.

Reading is kinda fun. It's a moto bike!

I think you vastly overpaid, but given the fun you will have, it will pay off. Enjoy.
Rubber side down.

Me too, thanks. I don't wish that lesson on anyone. I was an old dipshit.

Alright, you made me think, which is a gift, because when I ride, I usually do.

I'm comfortable at big speeds over limits in curves, but I completely got fucked by my brain. Triple the limit in...

I spaced. I was fully committed and it never crossed my mind at the time that there would be a car around that corner, doing the speed limit. Duh.

I had to stand it up, take the ride. I cannot...

I went into a 25 corner at 95. There was a car. I had new tires and I'm knee down drifting with slow traction. Into the dirt, grass, rocks, over a cliff, stay on throttle, back to pavement, left...

Just want to throw out a general be safe.

I almost bit it hard today. Totally my fault.

In 30 years of riding, skiing, climbing, doing other dumb shit, I don't think I've walked away from...

I built a hybrid cb 400 for my dad from 2 of my bikes when I graduated college to finally let him know that I thanked him for bringing me into the world, even though he beat the living shit out of me...

I'd totally go rossi on that rep.

I would rape the fuck out of an African and never get out of 2nd on the Dragon.

I would be interested depending on exact dates.

That is such an amazing photograph. How did you balance your highlights?

That really pegs my stokemeter. I taught a friend to ride on that very same bike 18 years ago. Danno, remember Mr....

Been there, done that. With a blue Yamie and a silver helmet. I feel exactly your vision.

Looks like time for a new front. FZ1?

I was thinking timbersled right off the bat. Let's see what durability it has.

No thanks. I wonder where those 3+ pairs of frozen leather gloves I left in the snap on storage are right now. If only we could GPS shit decades later. Mine had a cassette deck though. I used to...

I had a windjammer and a kerker on my cb750.

That's too funny.

Dual front discs and a 4 into 1 hopefully.

Fork seals, some new rubber, battery, and some carb work and you should be good to go.
