When you dropped it I felt your pain:eek1: Looked like a trip to remember! Them rocks at the end looked rather large and would have been a challenge for a lighter dirt bike much less an adventure tourer. You Did GOOD!!! :D

The video is deceptive, the rocks at the end were smaller than the rocks at the beginning... LOL

Great video, Joe. Your new bike is officially broken in.

Ken, that video is crazy. When I was younger, I would have probably tried those trails on a dirt bike. I may have gone over the edge, but I would have tried. Now, I can barely watch the video without wincing.

You are a wild man. I hope never to encounter anything like that on any motorcycle.

Great Video Joe! I hope to have my Super Tenere down at TexSTOC next month!
Your suppose to have your ST's. Rod is also riding his Super T. Does this mean I have to bring my Wee so I can ride dirt with you all? Mabe I'll bring the KLR just becouse.

We might just change the name to TexSuperTOC:p

Bring your Wee Chuck but as far as riding dirt....

1. I need to add som protection to the stock Super T before I do any rock crawling
2. I need to learn how to rock crawl ;)
I think I will just bring the ST, as Rod won't get his dirty and you need to get some protection. Don't think Mellow will do any more rock crawling for a while.:D

That is correct, I'll lead someone to that section but I'll go around the long way and meet them at the other end... well, I might hang around to take some pictures.
