Hanging out with Ericeira’s top vet!

Your loss

I was honestly a little sad for losing that considering the whole trip in which it was shot, but am over it and it’s all good. People chose the other bike so keep that.

My mate has gotten a new one. He’s a very inexperienced and timid rider so is relearning motorcycle riding. His shows 2.9lt/100km. Granted it’ll go up when ridden properly but it’s impressive!

In Spanish, cojones are testicles, but cajones are the drawers in furniture, general wooden boxes, and coffins!

I have one too, did try one of the bottles the other day and they worked ok, i think using two or three I could have pressure to ride. But still would rather have a pump for peace of mind.

Sherco builds some bikes in Spain, the trials ones. Ossa and Bultaco are very cool old brands. Montesa is Honda’s trials manufacturer, proper bikes! Gas Gas was completely independent up until a few years ago, also proper bikes.

That’ll be your english hells angels

People who buy them race them. It’s a 70hp 450cc that lasts two Dakars before a rebuild, all that suspension, and probably assembled by hand in low numbers. It’s not difficult to see where the money goes.

A kTM Rally is 30 or 35000€. I’m honestly curious to see an honest comparison.

Looks proper! Last thing I one needs is the desert all full of competent bikes riding around

You prefer a bus over a motorcycle to get around an urban area?

I’ve realised a few of my favourite small roads on the GS aren’t fun at all on a car. Get a longer travel suspension bike, there’s a reason they’re so popular in places where cities have poor roads.

Portugal needs a few immigrants but they all want to go to the UK instead. Free full english breakfasts, apparently!!!

It’s like when you look at the Husqvarna 401 scrambler and it just looks like shit from up close, this is the same.

On the Dakar, both them and Hero seem to gave competent proper looking bikes.

This looks like a chinese bike up close, in a bad way.

i thought it’s cool you ride it in those conditions, too.

I voted for Clive, as I don’t vote for myself. Congrat to Saul, riding in that cold.

Don’t know what for, but my hometown’s biggest bakery runs three or four electric kangoos for delivering bread all around. They must be ok for inside town use.

I voted for the Hayabusa

Not even trying

My girlfriend used to wear glasses and she did do ok with 100% Accuri, the OTG version. These are motocross goggles, so might or night not go with the styling you want.

They’re monochrome pieces, so a good guy will sand them all down, do the stripes and artwork, and apply proper gloss on top, if they do the tank’s gloss as well you’ll have color tone and finish matching tank and mudguard, and way better than stock overall finish. It’s probably going to cost as much more in proportion to the better it looks than what you get by replacing a sticker. I’d like a classic looking bike or a Harley for this alone, a GS doesn’t quite suit the nice paintwork that goes well with bikes like these.
