    2018 Touratech Rally, June 21-24 in Plain, WA

    Just registered for the rally and the Friday PSSOR Adv 101 class, anyone else planning to go? I've been off of the S10 for a few years sadly, but recently did a few DS rides and the bug bit with full force. ::001:: More info: https://www.touratechrally.com/

    Nice resource, thanks! Subscribed daily digest style. What about permanent parking though? That's the real issue. Definitely open to suggestions.

    Thanks Eric. Definitely good food for thought. One of the big barriers at the moment is parking cost / availability, as we're looking to live downtown. There is one ADV inmate with a cool option brewing though... Other issue is I spend all of my free time on the mountain bike now.

    I like the way the rear handles...I'll see where the mileage ends up. Did you ever feel the front was a bit strange? It always felt strange to me on road. I had hoped some break-in would help but still has some odd handling characteristics. It would have to grip better in loose stuff to make up...

    Thanks for the feedback everyone. Did your Full Bore wear slower in the second half of it's life?

    Heidenau k60 Scouts

    Quick question for the Heidenau vets... My Shinko 705 has about 25% left after 3k miles (and I'm generally easy on tires) so replacing with something else. Looking at the K60 I'm torn between the 140/80 (a bit cheaper) and 150/70. Can anyone who has run both sizes speak to any noticeable...

    New skid plate arrival

    I'd be interested in others' answers to this. When I first got the plate I discussed options with a coworker of mine (he's a mech engineer) and the conversation steered me away from stainless due to it generally being lower strength. I figured matching the strength of the supplied bolts was...

    New skid plate arrival

    A few shots of my front mounting w/ the AltRider bars. With AltRiders already installed, just remove the two front bolts and mount up per instructions (spacers on top of AltRider bars). I had to take a little bit of care to keep the plate from digging into the bars when tightened down...

    I had heard some thunks so I decided to check on it. Yup, looks fine. :D

    New skid plate arrival

    I thought I measured the supplied bolts at 40mm...did I screw it up? I was thinking about getting 45s but couldn't find a good set with the proper thread pitch and strength.
