Riding in the UP of Michigan............176 miles of snowmobile, jeep and ATV trails with dirt, gravel and some deep sand.
All is good except the deep sand.......the wide front road tire and deep sand are not a great combination. new tires are in my future after I use more of the stock tire. Think maybe a more narrow front would help in the front end wash out....(with a more dirt tread of course). Do not have enough faith in the NC or my self to lean back and gas it in the loose stuff.....especially with road tires.
Used the skip plate a few times and bottomed the suspension a few more and fought my way out of some deep ruts with the marginal road tires.....did I mention I need tires
176 miles and used 2.3 gallons of gas........76.5 MPG. Avg speed was maybe 40 MPH.
Tomorrow....... 2 up rode riding....................no more sand
