Get a motard.

Strange timing on the bump, got my 690 just shy of 3 years ago. Not a great all purpose bike but hard to beat on Ham or other goat trails and gets 50 MPG as a bonus. If only the tyres would last as long the oil and filter change interval, hell I'd settle for half as long.

I'm really hoping the oil change interval is not 1,500 miles like most bikes :|
 
"I'm really hoping the oil change interval is not 1,500 miles like most bikes "

The 690's trade a little power and some heft for 3,000 miles between oil and filter and 6,000 for the valves. I feel guilty about the long interval so chenge the O&F at the first convenient time after 2,000. My last rear BT016 lasted a 1,000 miles, strangely the BT003's are lasting longer for some reason.
 
I want a motard but I like going over 80 on the freeway too.


no really. any suggestions? drz400 or a dirt bike converted to a motard like a xr 650 or something?

I really dont even know what sizes they make in dirt bikes but 650 sounds good


Motards come in (or can be put together in, just note where Motards came from to start with, before the factories jumped on the bandwagon) In any size that fits your needs. :thumbup
 
Me and my MOTARD are going straight to hell for this blasphemy. Cause I actually read it outloud. Hell is full of Motards. Ohhh BTW I am throwing bitches out left and right since I started riding Motard. Its the new Viagra.


Motard prayer:

Our motard, who art in the twisties
Hallowed by thy name,
Thy roads will come
Thy will be done,
on dirt as it is on asphalt.

Give us this day, our daily wheelie
And forgive us our passes,
As we forgive those sportbiles who try to pass us

And lead us not into getting busted
but deliver us from citation

Amen.
