The wall of coolness

Wicked riding shots from a cool bike..

Quote: From the brother of the rider...

"Well, things didn't exactly go to plan with a few mechanical issues causing him to drop from 18th outright and 5th in class on day 3 to the back of the field, then with a few top 15 outright finishes and sitting in 35th, a dodgy waterpump seal made any plans of a respectable finishing place a distant memory, however in the last few days of the rally he got a personel best finish of 11th outright and 2nd in class in one of the longest special tests just short of 200 miles finishing the Safari outright in 38th. Not too bad for someones first ever Safari.
It was a great introduction to sarari style racing and we have big plans to go over next year and battle it out for a (hopefully) top 10 outright finish"

Think that is Acerbis one made for KTM in Orange....

It's a genuine 13ltr KTM tank made by acerbis for the MXC. Got it 2nd hand from Lester Yates, just happened to see it there when I took Pooey around the Coromandel otherwise I would have had to get a safari from Oz.

Does nothing for me

F'cked up bug eyes. Girly road mud guard. Blunt screen.

Don't mind me. I hate the look of adventure bikes.

OK bro please post up a bike you think should be up here.

Remember the wall is a continuum - doesn't have to be cool - can be very uncool - funny thing is there's bound to be someone whose had one & loved it
