    Just waiting to hear back from the BMW guys about taking a demo bike out.
    Then it's decision time.

    Ooh it's inching closer mate! Knowing how you liked the KLX you might well like that X Challenge! Won't vibrate as much as the KTM did I would guess!

    Yeah very close, I do not want another weekend with no bike, it sucked that I missed the westpac ride, would have loved that one.

    Funny you should ask that, I have just (when I say just, I mean I got back about 10mins ago from the shop) purchased a 2008 KTM690 enduro.
    Parked outside right now.

    Cool I'll get to see it in the flesh then! And meet you finally too!

    Am hoping I will NOT be on the KLX for that ride - it's gonna be a long weekend!

    Yeah, I could not handle a trip like that on the KLX (mostly because of the seat), but we must be soft cause 3L4NS1R set the benchmark for the KLX around these parts I reckon.

    3L4NS1R, yeah could be keen for a monday evening ride, shout out on monday.
