KTM 640 Adventure MY2005, loved her, spent some quality time with her; Then a bit of biking hiatus for various reasons; KTM 1190 Adventure R MY2014; amazing bike that does a ton of stuff; enjoyed it immensely on street and light unpaved roads; also (as a follow-up to the 640 Adv) made it very clear that for me, adventure bike means thumper and that I'm certainly not into the "big bike taken offroad" thing. So after 3 years of travel, including offroad with luggage and passenger, it's gone and replaced with KTM 690 Enduro R MY2016; which I'm enjoying a lot currently.

It's just absolutely bonkers what off the charts skilled riders like Birch can do on these bikes. It shows you that it's possible and that you just need to keep training. That said, I recently got the idea for the Tour of Idaho on a big bike. Anyone heard of that being done already?

I'd like this thread to be a place where we can put videos of big bikes being ridden well. Videos you look at and you're like "wow, I wish I could ride like that!" Something like this... or

Hi guys just introducing myself from Colombia , glad to be here and share the knowledge , if any riders need riding tips in Colombia or South America you re welcome to ask

Thanks I had to get into the xladv forum to share the experiences you have a nice community here

Keep me posted if you are coming to Colombia I can show you around

I look at that and think, mad skills, but a whole lotta work! As in, that doesn't look like a day of fun, but more a day of proving that you can make something do something that isn't necessarily at home. Impressive none the less!

Just joined the forum just wanted to share some big bike riding , training for the Gs trophy in Colombia.
