Which reminds me - we should get together for a couple dual sport rides this summer. Maybe organize a group ride?
Sounds good ,I'm going to the Touratech/Overland rally at the end of June , you should come along.

Ok....(now don't think I am crazy ) BUT .....I came home last night and RESEARCHED my decision AND I cancelled my Shinko (120/90r17) this morning !! After figuring out that it would be roughly the same size as the 130/80r17 .....I would still have to lift the front fender. So I started phoning around and I can get a TKC80 (120/70r17) out of Ontario and have it here by end of week or early next week. Should work...even if I get the bike on Friday !!!!
I ordered a windscreen and handguards too from Ontario. Bike should pretty well be set!!!
I CAN'T WAIT TO RIDE MY HONDA!!!!!!!
P.S. KLR sold today ..... now without wheels !!! Happy and sad !!! LOL
Oh ya. !!
I got 13,000 miles out of that combo, 60% of that was commuting.
Thats the kind of mileage I am hoping for !!!! I do lots of slab too.....but since I am coming off a KLR ....I do enjoy some gravel and fire roads as well!!!

I could have got atleast another 2,000 miles out of them but the handling was starting to get a little funky , well funkier anyway !!.

Perfect! I have 14k miles on the original tires and chain, I will order the tires and install them, at the same time as installing the chain.
Thanks!!
