I'm looking for Christchurch Adv rides

[Shoshoni]

Should be an interesting day for those that come along, see you all in the morning.

[flashg]

[FuzzG]

I'll see you guys the the Peg ready to leave at 10

[Shoshoni]

That was enjoyable day out on the bikes, have to organize another trip somewhere.

[whatastoner]

How many and where you go. My ttr still in pieces or I would have been there too. Next time for def.

[JayDNZ]

Awesome ride guys, loved it!! Days like today where the whole motivation for buying an adventure bike. Thanks guys for leading the way and thanks to Carl for hanging up the back with the noob!! To think I nearly missed out by heading to the wrong Peg this morning!

Big thanks to Shoshoni for the ride. A few roads I haven't travelled before today. Great company as well.

[Transalper]

Great day out, really enjoyed myself cheers guys.
7 of us today on a variation of the CCC loop with a late(ish) lunch at Cheviot, some slipperyness and some big bikes too, but no one had too much trouble and we got home just before that wind hit by the sound of things outside right now.

[FuzzG]

Thanks shoshoni for organising a great ride, will have join you guys again soon

[badblackbuell]

So where to next?

[FuzzG]

So where to next?

Not sure where you guys have been too of late but there are lots of options around Banks Peninsula, I can plan a route to do in a couple of weeks if there are a few people keen?

So, a question. If I were to sell my drz400 due to a temporary cashflow crisis, what should I replace it with when said crisis has passed?

Really liking the longer range adventure stuff, not really into the tighter mx type riding, so interested in some thoughts

[Transalper]

A DRZ400 with a big tank.

I like the longer range easy stuff too but the WR is always good when it gets muddy even if that is just a small section of the ride weekend. All worth while when I get to that bit.

I don't do much past a grade 2 on the Transalp now days even if that small bit of mud is on the other side or far end of the island.

DR650 with big tank, wind shield and seat mod for a cheap very good all rounder. Everything else has more focus one way or other and often seems to cost more, not that I pay much attention now days.

[Dr z-tard]

I feel the same, I like my drz400 due to the light weight agile nature of the bike but the little tank and the pain in the ass seat are a problem I wouldn't mind something more refined to ride maybe with a 6th gear and a more athsteicaly pleasing front headlight perhaps even a wind sheild to collect bugs, maybe I should be looking at a vstrom or equivalent as my next but for now I'm more than happy. Different strokes I guess good luck

So not much advance on a DRZ400 with a bigger tank, better seat and a 6th gear. the question is does it exist??

I was hoping for some temporary pain for a longer term gain, otherwise it's keep what I've got, suck it up money wise and carry on.

thought I could see an opportunity for an upgrade........
