    Had the 750 out on the gravel a few weeks ago and O dear I think it might be quicker point to point than the KTM, how embarrassing

    I know there was an unnamed KTM990 rider that was looking at it twice to try figure out what was going on

    The point being DR Bigs are a very balanced bike on the gravel (though I'm sure the Kenda trackmasters that were sticking like glue helped a bit)

    Pretty obvious I thought, I have another pending and want this more than the other....
    But happy to keep it if it don't sell. After all, one just has to get on this and ride it, it is ready!

    AND I cannot afford to keep three bikes.....it is a simple matter really.

    You got to laugh otherwise you'd cry (something I do at even the thought of selling a bike )
