Recent upgrades to my bike......

[gearsoup]

I was finding myself spending more time off road, and these weren't cutting it:

So, I upgraded to these: Dunlop D606's front and rear. And yes, they are road legal

All that time on the trail, and the bike has a tendancy to maybe fall down a bit..... Stock handlebars suck ass, so I put a Renthal on

Also bolted a medium Pelican case to the back rack. It has enough capacity for a few tools, small air compressor, lunch, socks, TP, and what else I need for a day out on the trail.

Oh, I also ditched the Corbin seat for the OEM one. It's a lot more comfortable, but it does sit me up higher, especially with the new tires....

Looking good, I have been riding the piss out of my yamaha lately. What ever happened to the stm bike ride?

Those tires are road legal eh? Theres gotta be a loophole somewhere on that. It looks excellent.

DOT approved. Nuff said.

And they actually hold really well on the slab. A bit buzzy, but otherwise okay. Off road, they are the cat's ass.

Im so jealous! I've been looking at these and am damn close to buying one!

How do you like it so far? Where did you get yours?

I really like the bike. It does have it's own character. It's not a true road bike, or a dirt bike. It falls in the middle. After breaking her in, I'm finding the power decent enough for what I do. It's not really fast, but it handles sweet.

I got the bike at JEM motorsports in So. Paris. Good guy to work with. However, I'd stay away from the '08's and up for a bit. I understand a LOT of people are burning oil on new bikes..
