Anyone trying to get out and rider tomorrow?

I’m pretty sure I’m gonna head to Michaux or Green Ridge. Leaning toward green ridge but up for whatever. Dualsport kinda ride unless someone has something else to offer.

I don't know if it's too late, but if you're talking about something I could do on a Honda CB500X (with apparently balding tires...) let me know. Unfortunately, my DRZ is in WV and the two "DS" bikes I have here, the tires are too soft for a lot of pavement and hardpacked road.

Sorry Phoo I already went, knocked out 150 miles, and came home. Speed run. I’ll give more of a heads up next time.

Kove 800 is running prime.

[phoo]

Nice looking bike. Have you seen the Fortnine review? I'll be honest, I can't really tell if the review is positive or negative. It sounds like you're really happy with it, though?

Yes I’ve seen it. I wasn’t sure where he was going with it either. It seemed like he wanted to make it a bashing video and make it sound like a bike only Pol Tarres would like. It’s definitely capable of more aggressive riding than a lot of other adv bikes I think but the engine is nothing crazy and and the suspension is so good it’s way more comfortable to ride casually than my 890r was. I’ve had zero issues once I got the ecu mapped by Kove USA which really smoothed out the snatchy throttle. It’s also much shorter than my 890r so this would be a good option for someone who isn’t 6’1” along with the 75-100lb weight difference to the other adv options.
