Yahoo! I love mountain ridin'! Done a couple of them over the years: the Tourmalet(Pyrenees), Mont Ventoux, Alpes d'Huez, Vogezen, Hautes Provence etc.. Every time it's an adventure all over again, climbing those steep&twisty mountain roads with yer thumper, it's a thrill!

Tenere Landing in OZ in 2 weeks
For anyone in OZ watching this thread might like to know
I put a deposite down on my deal today. While I was talking to the dealer he told me a bit about why it was taking so long for this bike to get here. The reason why is - as the ghost rider who was testing the bike was told to put 50,000 kms on it so they could come up with a hit list of things that yamaha aust. wanted changed and in regards to these items being changed, yammy aust. were told they were going to have to wait if they wanted these changes done. The things that i can remember are: 1-The suspension in the front has had stronger springs put in. (im not sure if the rear has been touched) 2-The paper air filter that is standard in the european models, has been changed to a foam filter for OZ. 3-I think something had to be done with the top edge of the windsheild. i'm sure there was 1 or 2 other things that i can't remember.....sorry! Cheers Regie. |

The swine flu have now destroyed 2.6% of my biking season, the weather outside is perfect for a trip out in the wilderness and I'm stuck inhere feeling like a pig. It sucks!
A pic from the last trip before I got sick. It's so easy to recruit new XToholics, a short test ride and they are all smiling and grinning: http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/3746/bittenf.jpg |
