enduro/supermoto

Post by callam_nffc »

do any of you do greenlaning?

I have wanted a cheap enduro style bike for absolutely god knows how long now
its something Ive always wanted a go at and there are a fair few places near me you can go and do it legally

I either want something like that or I really like supermotos too but they hold value like you wouldn't believe it seems, only reason I had the storm was because I don't think the offroad shape lends itself to being practical in any way, shape or form.

I have a DRZ400SM which I convert to dirt mode when I want to go off road. They ain't cheap though but great fun

Callam,
you have seen whats in my garage so you know I do greenlaning [and trials]. and the bike options are endless but if they have been used off road some of them are real dogs when sold 2nd hand.

I did list a whole stack of options when Geodude asked the same questions, I think he put the full story in his UKbiker website.

yes you certainly have an impressive man-cave haha

thanks I will look, their are so many bikes I know nothing about husqvarna, husaberg etc

the only thing that put me off a crosser style bike previously is going two-up a lot for distance plus I simply couldn't have the slowest bike out of my mates :lol:
