Thought i would say hello!

[G.D.]

Hi my name is Glenn and i bored with riding only off road and MX bikes instead of lurking i've decided to register.

Latley i find myself questioning what alternatives there are to do, and life in general. Super bikes are not for me and besides that my wife would kill me first.

One of my buddies Dave, i know he's on the forum has been into the Adventure thing for a while and enjoying every moment.

Question - What bike do i look at and why?
                  What size
                  Why does the KTM 640 need an engine rebuild at 11 000km, read it somewhere here on the forum.
                  My riding skills are average and i worry about the weight of these Adventure bikes , i currently own
                  a Honda CRF 450 X and love the power.
                  Whats the cost of maintaining the bikes
                  How do i break the news to my wife.

Thanks
GD
