KTM 690 Enduro R 2012 with Rally Raid fairing and tanks and a few other bits of bling

I'm going to confess, and will pay penance later.
It looks rather tasty. What's you plans Nick ? Riding all the way back home to Brazil ? Heroes Legend ? On the downside, it does have "steel me you scrotes" written all over it - keep it well locked up.

Yup! Must admit I'm a bit concerned about that, I will be changing the graphics to something a little less LOUD!! Plans, well, there's an idea.... First trip will be down to Spain/Portugal, I'm going to re-do our 2010 trip in Portugal, hopefully to the end this time then over to Morocco with some of the other guys from here and ABR. I'll be doing a shakedown up to the Lakes/Scotland maybe the weekend before you trip to Skye, so I'll pop in and say hello. Nick. |

Before even thinking of dakar test Tuareg rallye in Tunisia instead, if you can handle the sands then perhaps just perhaps think further.

I'd have to admit, if I could afford it, I'd have one of those.

Besides, in order to race that at the Dakar you'd also need the short-stroke 450cc engine kit which RRP/Torque are developing and which a certain lady racer of this parish will be taking to Dakar in 2015.

The Dakar was sort of a joke.......
I hope to be there in 2015, but not racing obviously! !! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 4 |
