Since when did motorbike Jazz Mag Journos gain any credibility among the BCF massive?
I'm sure middle-weight is a Magazine Office Construct.

I've rode a Tenere 700 and a KTM 890 briefly and I cant wrap my head around why you'd pick a 240kg bike over those |
Heavy rider, pillion and touring gear perhaps but agree with the sentiment.
My 'middleweight' has a mere 186 Kg carry capacity. My 'little' boy has just surpassed 80 Kg himself so us and luggage is cutting it fine for our eurotour. |
600 and 900 two up tent and 5hite felt a big lack-of-power to me.
My 1200 gs 2 up, tent, stoves, clothes, food, never ever felt the weight.
Pulling away, inclines, acceleration, stopping and slow manoeuvre were all very manageable.
We may not have been at the OEM max load but near it.
Middle weight 600-800. Is OK. ____________________ Disclaimer: The comments above may be predicted text and not necessarily the opinion of MCN. |
