OK, first, I shall correct my statement, "you have your car and MOTORCYCLES" ...

Now, one question, are SetUp boots still being manufactured? I have a set that  I bought when I got the bike back in 2006 and they have given up their ghost ... and have no footwear that is light, WATERPROOF and not so expensive on the market here ... Could you confirm if they're still being manufactured? Thanks ...;)

actually got out on the bike for a short while, not long, just went up put fresh gas in it and then a short 20 mile loop to burn out any condensation in the oil.

Did an oil change and mounted up two new tires on the KTM today.

PR2 rear did not last long. DOA at 5500 miles :(

That's the most I've ever gotten out of a rear tire. I bought it because everyone said they were getting 7000ish.
