Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
Yeah, if on-the-drive pics counted , am sure lots of us could do this one without even jumping on the bike ( well those of us who still have bikes could
)
I parked behind this Macan Turbo on my little jaunt out on the red bike this afternoon, I think they're 4-ish secs to 60 so assume it passes?

If it does, then the next challenge will be your bike with a waterfall or weir in shot.

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
I know a fair few waterfalls around here,but they are down off the road and only accessible on foot,I'm not able to get the bike in shot.

Order Tricky to take the shot and teach him manners.

I live in the driest and flattest part of the country, waterfalls aren't exactly common locally, even weirs are few and far between.

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
I could actually do this one, there are two or three wiers within half an hour or so of me here- not going to though

If you're feeling XSR-y it would be an easy one for you - the pic isn't framed very well, but a pace or two back and the weir would be right in shot and is 10 miles or less from your front door

No, that's my old 790, that was tip-top , I did slip of it's ;ittle brother (a 390 Duke ) though, guess that's what you may have been thinking ofSkub wrote: Mon Jul 05, 2021 5:19 pm

Re: The riding challenge game. Pic of your bike 'somewhere'
No,sorry,I just realised it was the new 890 which quit on you,not the 790. KTM numbers confuse the hell out of me!Tricky wrote: Mon Jul 05, 2021 8:20 pm No, that's my old 790, that was tip-top , I did slip of it's ;ittle brother (a 390 Duke ) though, guess that's what you may have been thinking of
Anyway,I like that 790,is it less fickle than the usual KTM fare?
