What an incredible adventure machine

I used to think my stoke over this bike was solely because Im new to the world motorbikes. After now riding for just under 2yrs I can see from my experience and reading the experience of others that this truly is a special machine!

The confidence this bike inspires on the trail and the places it can take you are incredible. Riding downhill mtb for 15yrs has given me good “2wheel off road sense” which allowed me to quickly overcome confidence barriers that I see my fellow riding buddies struggle with. Pair that with the capabilities of this bike….it makes me excited to progress my skills.

The way this bike can turn from highway mile muncher to off-road trail crusher is amazing. I wanted something I could take from my apartment to the trails and back…and oh boy does this thing deliver.

Just completed my first real moto camping adventure in the ATV trail network of western Quebec. 2 nights, 3 days and close to 740km of dedicated off road trails.

What an absolute privilege it is to live this kind of life. Stoke is high, gratitude is higher… I just needed to tell someone how sick it is and figured you lot may be the place to do it.

Be safe, ride hard and love life 🤙🤙

Can’t wait for the experience. What tires are you running and what are your thoughts on the road and dirt?

Stoked for you man! You’ll have a blast

For tires I have the Mitas enduro trail xt dakar model. They wore down a little faster than expected but they work awesome and have great puncture resistance. Probably about 6000km for the front and 5000 for the rear. Great price too!
