I have panniers and racks available that I won't be using.  You are welcome to make an offer.

@Ghato  congratulations! Flip it looks nice cant wait for mine (hopefully on the 22nd).

Do you have the new Anekee adventure tyres on it? Apparently the next batch will have them fitted.

Dare I say it but the gold wheels are growing on me.

So I collected my gloves. The workmanship is okay, not great, but they did the job and it looks like they will last a while longer. They replaced the velcro at the wrists of the gloves. Keep in mind I am a perfectionist

This thread is useless now, because the ones that followed it from the start are well informed and the latecomers to the thread repeat questions which was long ago addressed and reasoned over.

I'll try in short:
This bike is Euro5 compliant and therefore chocked up.
It is silent,  smooth and refined.
It is not like the 250L which is dressed like an offroad bike but a real proper roadworthy enduro bike with the real deal suspension.
Although the engine output seems low it still makes lots more torque than the Ralley 250l which makes this bike disable where you need it.
It can do sardines and proper offroad.
Look at the fb video of the guy that did  some a 4000km round trip to Morocco and then you may get it, or simply go buy a atm exc 500 which is also a great choice.
Proper enduro bikes gets serviced every 1k km, sump capacity is small and it is quick and easy DIY jobby...

I'm thinking of going through from Willowmore to Patensie next Friday - on my own on a borrowed 1200GSA. Really hoping that water drops a bit!

Edit - thinking twice about doing it alone

Don't, just do it.
Where you staying in Willowmore?
