3 wheels...
Put a new shock on the car...
soft surspention it turns towards the
car easy / hard surspention it turns
away from the car easy... I will take
a C spanner out 2morrow and play with
settings... see if I can fined a medium setting...

Easy to ride "now"
Its amazzing on gravel.. just slide it around corners
but it needs more power or a less grippy rear tyre...Both:shit:
Its surprised me where it will go..I can't pull 6th gear on the road
its just a bit to fast for saftey..A couple of teeth off the engine
sprocket should do it... give a nice low 1st...

A good learning curve....

I will build another.. Darker style on either a KLR650
or XT660..

I'd go for the KLR - then when you go without the car you'll hardly notice the difference :facepalm:

Klrs aren't CHEAP either. I prefer the term "well priced"

no dam bikes cheap/well prised now....
like $10,000 for a KLR & $13,000 for the XT..
&16,000 for the Tenere..
stupid money for a dirt bike...

I do like the XT..:facepalm:
