    Haha, I see Straun has chose a different steed this year.

    I have some choice words on a video somewhere of him lamenting his choice last year.

    aye jezza, just some of us are slow learners, but I do have my eye on a XT600, but then if it don't happen I'll just have to use the inappropriate & I've made a change that helps with the handling

    Just idly looking at the rider stats again, while at a glance the DR650 is king with 9 of them I notice 15 KTM's of various size making me think the colour of the ride is orange.

    Who's riding the DR350 I wonder ? I hope they've got plans to carry extra fuel....

    I thought I should have counted the other brands more carefully too after posting....

    But I bet the 17 Suzukis aren't all the same colour, though no guarantee the KTM's will all be orange but more likely than not.
