What ever rips your shorts!!!

Personally I think a sidecar is for Bichons.

Flip on the other hand would probobly tell you they are for welsh terriers, or Mrs Flip.

Hayes Diversified (Diesel repowered KLR650s) used by the US Forces

Then there is our very own desert colour KTM 530 that saw action in Afghanistan....283085

The Marines use a kawasaki Diesel 670,I rode one for a couple off days amazing bike lots off low end torque.
The major reason for a diesel bike was that they have a policly ,'one fuel for all' in the marines hence nothing runs on petrol.

Mititary side cars are the ducks nuts.

Correct. Seen a picture of Apiata sitting on one

[Hacking]

Ktm , but before xr600 then klr in the early 90's

[clint640]

Diesel KLR vs KTM 530? I know which one I'd rather be on if I was being chased by a hilux-load of maniacal taliban :chase: :killingme

Not a proper military machine but I do like the look of the Trumpy scramblers in green.
