Currently riding a 2019 MT-07 - Ice Fluo. However, I’m shopping around for a Africa Twin 2016 due to wanting to do a bit more off-road riding

    Ooooh Motorcycles has arrived !
    Hope the ATGATT and anti-ATGATT discussions never make a debut here…

    I ride a Monster Stealth 821 and for the cruise to the shops I have a Monkey.
    Keep the rubber side down buddy and enjoy the MT.

        Hehe yeah it probably will, I just got a bit tired of seeing people argue over that instead of actual motorcycles on Reddit.

        I wear my gear. What other people do is up to them.

        Keep the rubber side down, friend !

      As much as the gear wanking was retarded, it’s the “I crashed today and here’s what you should learn from it” style that I never want to see again. Let’s have a stickied ‘mechanic advice’ thread, and get rid of those posts as well.

      Then we can post pics, videos, and all the fun parts of the ride.

    Just bought a '23 Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro and traded in my '09 Yamaha FZ6. Just waiting on paperwork and delivery, then I’ll be packing the miles on the Tiger!

    '14 Duke 390, as a one bike garage that commutes it’s a practical choice. Cheaper to feed, easy to push around, has enough legs to not die in traffic. It’s fun to throw around in corners, but lacks the pull to make me giggle coming out of them.

    I’m riding this beast, baby. 🤣

    Seriously, for me the Himalayan is a perfect bike. She’ll go literally anywhere, she’ll do highway speeds, but ishes not too fast, and she’s super comfortable. She’s simple enough so if something breaks, my limited mechanical skills can get it going again. And every time I get off her, she makes me look back.

    I’m planning to set off to spend a few years riding a Himalayan (maybe one of the new ones) around Europe, though that’s still a little ways away.

    So excited to see this community I loved the reddit one! I just started this season, on a 2005 Honda Shadow, been tempted by a new Triumph Trident 660 though!

      Man, I had a 2007 Shadow. Loved that bike. Utterly reliable and comfortable. Got her with 44,000 km on her and put 20,000 on her over eighteen months before she moved on. Loved the sound of her turning over and revving. ❤️
