Southern Ontario... Canadaland, center of the Universe. The truck actually has about 10-15hp less than the bike! Got the bike plated today, took it for a couple hour ride, wow is it awesome, took it down some gravel roads, and a trip down the highway. I'm coming from a DRZ400SM, and before that a KLX250SF... I've ridden several other bikes for test rides, but the 610 nails it, just need to get one of the extinct Lynx fairings.
After waiting for two weeks( thanks Husky USA, NOT ) for some rear spokes we got to go out again today. Went through 5 1/2 gallons of gas today.
Nice shot Dave, but then all your shots seem to be nice. I thought I saw your bike on Craigs list awhile back?
After a close friend of mine spent a good part of the last couple years telling me how I should get myself a Super Moto, I found the exact one I was looking for 2006 SM 610. Picked her up a couple of weeks ago. I decided with winter well on its way here in Oregon, and the fact that I want to go do some trail riding soon, I wanted to get some knobbies for it. Another buddy, just happened to have some laying around and freebies are almost always good so I put them on yesterday. These tires bring back memories of playing around with the old "Fat Cat" dirt bikes back when I was a kid. So Today I decided I may as well go see how these knobbies handle the asphalt and the dirt so I took the Thumper out for a couple hundred mile "test ride". I must admit, I'm extremely happy with both the on and off road handling of these tires and look forward to more adventures with the Thumper.
