Yep. I'm not saying everyone should get packaged out and make a full time living in the motorcycle world like me, or quit their jobs and sell everything and spend the rest of their lives riding around the world like @Lightcycle and Neda and @WoBblyCaT , or do all of the two wheeled things...

It was nice seeing all of the great things people have said about motorcycling in here. I could write a book of quotes with what you guys have shared. Here's my take: At the end of the day, motorcycling is going to be whatever you make of it for yourself. If it's just a "sport" for you, then...

Awesome outcome!

$6500 USD Firm. Hmm.

You guys and your adventures were the second half of why I bought a G650GS (and then eventually a second one). The first half was the first time I rode a F650GS Dakar. I was working at Studio Cycle and it was a customer's bike I was test riding after service to make sure it was ready to go out...

In 2007 I bought a new 2005 50cc scooter for $2,000 out the door because I knew nothing. In 2009 I bought a new 2008 250cc motorcycle for $5,000 out the door because I knew little. Then I learned things and bought dozens of motorcycle since then all used... but A LOT of the bikes I've bought...

In short, big difference between a "ride report" of a sponsored ride, and a ride report of a couple of buds paying for everything out of pocket. The difference is the money, and when the Marketing Dept. spends money, it comes with expectations.

Does any of this apply to the two generations of 650cc singles BMW made after the original funduro? I rode for two weeks straight of 40+ celcius weather with no issues, and my voltage always in range (I have a little voltage display add on to make sure my android auto unit + charging my phone...

Pics? Sure. Location: Moto Guzzi factory museum - Mandello del Lario, Italy. Time: Seconds before I made a stupid joke, our first ride across Italy, 2023. Location: Same Time: Seconds after I made a stupid joke. You can do almost anything with a woman, except bore her, so grab her hand...

Want to hear two more? My first experience with VOS was when they tried to sell me a V-Rod exhaust pipe years ago, when I asked if it fit my Night Rod variant they said yes. You know that feeling you get when you're talking to someone about motorcycles, and realize they don't actually know a...

Carlo at Moto Motori is a wizard. Can't go wrong bringing a bike to him.

Just here in Toronto alone: Studio Cycle: Aprilia, Moto Guzzi, Husqvarna Powersports TO: Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Triumph Snow City Cycle: Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, Kawasaki

I corrected that for you :))

She's not home yet :D

As long as people are aware. Thing is, and I say this with a Triumph Speed 400 in my garage, people get that the Speed 400 is a budget bike built to a price point with budget components, and no one's saying they're on par with the average Japanese street bike. Whereas many RE fanboys and their...

Not one of FortNine's best videos ever, but as the owner of two BMW G650GS (the on road version of the generation after this one), this video tickled my heart: I think anyone with a KLR/DR/CRF 650 will appreciate it as y'all just get the 650 thumper vibe (literally). This is basically the...

Same! Mine are like ten years old, they came with two sets, so once I switched to custom made ear plugs, I gave these to the missus to use. She uses them on our rides across Italy and also finds them really comfortable. I don't even have to remind her to pack them, they're just part of her...

If planned obsolescence was really part of the BMW engineering philosophy, whoever designed the funuro 650cc/F650GS single/G650GS single that they made for a quarter century was surely fired, and then re-hired just so they could fire him again to get out of paying him severance. Fortnine just...

I believe them. And other lies I tell myself.
