I bet these Scouts have lower seat height and lower center of gravity than some of those light bikes. Makes for a very maneuverable bike. A lot better than some of the really big bikes over 900lbs.

 

bet it would look better without the passenger pegs

 

i was thinking that as well last night.

Still need to swap out the tail light too. Might get a chance tonight depending on how late im here at work

 

orange pleats on the seat would really put it over the edge

 

Been looking at seat concepts again. think ill get the low slip/carbon sides this time. the gripper top was too much on street riding.

 

I agree with that, some times I wanna slide but cant. Even off road its a bit much

 

ass chafing is real with that gripper

 

amen to that! I would like to see how the low gripper feels cause I may just try to get a buddy to buy mine

 

Ill let you know. 14-18 business day lead time right now and im going to be out of town for work till about mid august which means it should be delivered while im gone

Very sad

 

Since getting my 2019 Tacoma OR I have been riding less. I need to show my 2013 BMW GSA a little more love. Below is from Death Valley passing through in the early morning.

 

With dirtbikes, ive always had the same mindset: I'd much rather go fast on a slow bike than go slow on a fast bike. But, I dont think the same with road bikes. I have a 1200 Custom and wish that it had more power, I just wouldnt be satisfied riding an 883. My next bike will be a bigger harley, or an Indian Scout

 

Groms arent very fun unless you have people to ride them with imo. You could look i to a drz. Super reliable and can be plenty of fun in supermoto. Unsure how comfortable youre looking for. Upright seating is easy

Let me tell you a450 mx bike in the woods is a bit much! Ha. Definitely could use a 250 for that stuff

 

Handguards and headlight surround changed out. Looks so weird again without a "windshield"

 

I like it

 

Looking good, how about a smaller sumo front fender?

 

What model ktm did you get?

 

I was debating. Thanks for helping me spend money, haha

Not sure i follow.

 

he asking about your 690 enduro
