Off road? Why, I've never been offroad...




Or ridden through rocky streams...



Or considered the 'strom to be a viable platform for camping...



Or puttered around in the weeds...



Hehehe...

I'd be tempted to put some knobbies on the bike, but I ride too many miles commuting and on the highway...

Okay, just spoke to Tige and he informed me that I needed to post a picture of MY bike down.

Now as you all know I don't actually drop my bike but as an EVIL MOD I'm sure Tige will edit this post with a doctored photo....

Note the cleverly placed reflective "Alaska ABATE" bumper sticker. If you are riding down the road in the dark during a rainstorm and see a reflective rectangle lying in the middle of the road slow down, I probably need your help picking up the bike....

Watch where you put that bedliner, it's like asphalt. If you do your tank you'll need a tank bra. Not to keep the bedliner from being scratched, but to keep it from wearing through your jacket. I did the lower exhaust heatshield and an extra set of "beater" dirt fairings that I throw on when I'm going on dirt. Eventually I may do the crashbars and luggage rack.

So in order to qualify to join do you have to drop the bike in the dirt or can you just ride it??? :bom_beatnik2:














And not one sleeping bike in the lot!
