    I am looking for a Enduro to take camping if it's wrecked or blown up I can rebuild the bike just looking to get in cheap. Looking for something like Honda XR650

    Must just be the long angle. This is good, I do not need to mock you.
    Have fun.

    For something like the XR650 thats already cheap, you might end up being in more to rebuild one than to buy one that's fine.

    That may be true but I can do it at a slower pace not so much out at one time

    Finance is your friend! My uncle financed his KLR for like $100 a month brand new with a warranty.

    It really doesn't like keeping the front wheel down. I'm trying to stay out of the high RPM range since it's only got 30 or so miles on it but I can't help myself sometimes. I've got a 24k mile warranty on it so if it breaks it's on them.

    The R6 is at the dealer for valve lash inspection and adjustment if needed. Had a bit of a oil leak coming from the head cover gasket, but luckily that would be replaced by default when doing the valve lash inspection. Should be all set for riding season in a week or so.

    Those tires look sweet on that bike. Nice and beefy.

    Thanks man. The front is a little beefier than I wanted but until Avon comes out with more sizes it's what I got.

    Took her fishing this morning. Got into some pretty gnarly muddy single track at one point. Luckily I didn't drop her.

    Thats a really nice bike. I'm trying to justify buying one even though I don't have any near or midterm plans to do an extended trip.
