Greetings S10'ers,
I've been lurking around here for a few weeks now, and figured at this point I'm officially interested enough to say hello. I've been riding an F650GS (thumper) for the past few years, and it has served me very well, including a trip up the Dempster last summer. But now I've got my eye on something bigger, with less buzz, better suspension, and a sixth gear. Been considering all the bigger Bavarian machinery, but the more I research it the less confidence I have in the reliability of their bigger bikes. And then there's the cost....
Anyway, I have a CRF250X for all the really gnarly stuff, and a Kawi ZX6R for the racetrack - so I'm looking for something that I can use for everything in between those two extremes, on and off road. So that's why I'm here. Seems like there are a few others here from the Pacific NW, so I"ve got that going for me.
If nothing else, thanks for all the info!
Duane
