    Pedestal - for the uninitiated a KLR owners pedestal will likely be an old milk crate.

    No, can't find a milk crate round here - they are all changed into panniers, handguards and the like - for a pedestal nothing beats the old stump out the back - the one beside my "centre stand" stump

    Apart from the whinging which got on a lot of peoples nerves, he walked the walk & I'd say he definitely "Did the Dakar"
    Hell yes.
    The guys pulling out are national champs and very experienced racers. It can take them years before they get a finishers medal.
    Unless your name is Neduro, Pyndon or ChrisB...

    After doing it on the DR650, Andy went out and bought an XR650R and did it again

    Apparently I've just bought a Samsung Galaxy S III via PayPal.
    Dunno why I'd get it delivered to Tunisia though...

    Disputed transaction time...

    I got something similar a while ago but at closer comparison to other purchase emails it didn't read right as in they had my login email but not my name so I logged in to my account manually (not through the email link) and no record of it.
    www.remotemoto.com - a serious site for serious ADV riders, the ultimate resource in the making.
    Check out my videos on Youtube including... the 2011 Dusty Butt 1K - Awakino Challenge and others.

    The first 2 like that weren't genuine... "Your acccount has been..."

    The 3rd was from PayPal telling me they'd locked the account, which was genuine.
