Finally escaped from California, started a new job last week at Intel. need a computer to adjust my profile, bt any addicts in the Phoenix area will have a new person to ride with soon.

FYI- snow level is still 3500-4500 right now throughout the cascades/WABDR. It’s melting quick but seeing lots of people having to double back due to blow down, snow, and deep mud.

2007 KTM 990 Adventure 45,500 miles $6500. Located in Eastvale, CA 92880. Please don’t be concerned that this is my first post on XLADV. I’ve been on other sites and was introduced to XLADV recently. This is a great bike and I should keep it, but I bought an Africa Twin. My wife would [emoji2962] if I sold the Africa Twin to keep the KTM.

Hearing that, I think I am going to give the RallZ a shot. Tread pattern up front is a good bit different, and from what I understand works way better than the original TA, or the TA MK2. Rear looks much more open and id suspect be better in mud etc. I was totally geeked about the 823. Ive had a couple sets of the 723 and really like them. I suspect you would like them as well. I doubt you would get the mileage out of them that I have (you are much more abusive to tires!), but for how aggressive they are, getting the mileage I have out of them is impressive. The 823 sounded like it might last a tad longer and perform the same or better. Ive been emailing back and forth with Dax since I first heard of the 823's in March. Originally it sounded like late spring early summer to hit the US, but now he is saying September. I REALLY wanted to try those out.

Guess you need to get it on that road leading in and out of Goldpoint to know...

BTW this bike is obviously too small for Chris so for bigger riders still 1090 should be better option I think.

Got kicked out of the carwash after the ride too... They didn't like the mud
