    My Pal wants a Bike.....My Advise?

    I'd recommend he splits the difference and goes for something like a Triumph Tiger 800 or 900, 800GS, VStrom650 etc. It will be comfortable for long trips and nimble and light enough on the dirt. The T7 is a big dirt bike and won't be comfortable for long trips and maybe the big bikes like the...

    GPS or Tablet?

    I use Locus Maps but I do my planning on Google Maps, then use https://mapstogpx.com/ to convert the route and then send it to my tablet to use on the bike.

    SUPER TENERE FUEL PUMP FILTER.

    Ouch, hope you heal quick! I would have hoped that the traction control would have stopped the back breaking away.....or was it turned off?

    Looks like the Kalahari Ferrari or Mercedes is the transport of choice in West Africa.......looks like the worlds dumping ground for Mercedes 190's 😆

    Help needed from the BMW and KTM crowd/ knowledgeable

    Not sure what your budget is but you could maybe look at an older Super Tenere, you'll never have to fix it, it'll take 2 up with all day comfort and excellent on the gravel. The last thing you want to do is buy an old KTM or BM and have to throw lots of money at it to fix.

    Your opinion on this incident?

    Total BS...he realises the rider down, locks brakes trying to stop and then makes the decision to ride over him. Black flag and then a ban....

    HIGH mileage!!!!

    There is that Super Ten that has done 500 000k's without being opened so I don't think its too unreasonable to see a V-Strom do it. Both under-stressed motors and the Jap's know how to make motors last forever...

    Modern middleweight Adventure bikes are heavy!!
