I'm just going to agree with what glitch_oz is saying because it's exactly right. If you do a lot of motorway (freeway) riding get the DL, but if you like the backroads and gravel trails go for the DR. I've owned four DR650's now so I'm a bit biased but for me it's the best go anwhere dual-sport bike there is . 1996 UK model behind modded for overland riding and 2012 Standard model in front , that one is from Perth originally and still has some Aussie red dust on it

Touche

It's age restricted Eric, most of us are over 60 so we're not allowed to view it ?

Can't say that I disagree Bruce. Good work with the spring Fred, Taking carbs apart and overhauling them is very satisfying like Bruce says but fitting them back in usually involves skinned knuckles and a few expletives.

Quite possibly, I had to look that up ?

It's just gone up about 2c here as I have just farted with gusto ?

I only have one bike left with a carb, the others are both injected. Seems strange to me but it's the way of the world now.

Definitely by better people, I mean................ he drives buses and rides a feckin Harley, how much worse can it get ?

Hello Rusty, I can see you from my house

Oh yes, I forgot about the buses . Back to gloves, I wear moto cross gloves most of the time in summer but I strongly suspect that my criteria is different to yours.

Perhaps you need casual gloves ? https://www.clifford-james.co.uk/menswear/mens-clothing/accessories/casual-leather-gloves-brown/BVM43BR

I'm a bit ugly to put in the middle, perhaps somewhere near the back

Your last ride report was when you had your KTM640 was it not ?

Michelle, have you got heated grips ?

You have to have some pair of gonads to ride a beast like that as quick as he does.

Good job you haven't got a cat

I went for stout last night from local breweries...........

WTF, how are you wearing gloves out so fast. You don't even ride a bike , well perhaps once a year on a sunny sunday

Feckin mullet-headed Grebo

and there's no headbangers anymore cos none of them have got any hair ?

I feel your pain. I bought some tyres to repalce the Pirelli's that came with my Tenere but I want to wear out those first and with all these lockdowns I may never get to fit them

That bike is everything you need, just get shot of the gay tyres

On a public road where there are other vehicles with members of the public driving them. No righteousness here Pedro, you want to see how fast your bike goes, take it to a track.

Still cold here but I'm going out in the garage for some more luggage fiddling ? This afternoon/evening I will be camped in front of the tv watching the rugby and drinking stout
