Its the selling of ‘adventure riding’ now- must be capable both off road and fully loaded on road for mile eating and as that leads to a master of none they dress a comfortable touring bike up with some off road knobs, not sure if I mean the bike or the rider Its ABR festival next week and I will be having my annual giggle at the immaculate GS’s lined up outside Waitrose… before I go in there myself3 points

It's called 'adventure riding' Pete. All the wannabees will dissapear in a couple of years and then there will be loads of cheap bikes to buy. Or probably not cos they all buy them on PCP deals anyway3 points

The problem with the manufacturers now is they're making bikes look like they have offroad capabilities......when in fact they're just road bikes with different styling. The FB bike group pages are full of people taking massive machines on terrain that is only suitable for for small, light, dirt bikes.3 points

The bike is capable but i bought it for touring just couldn't bring myself to drag it through the crap around here when there's so many better bikes for it. People keep saying their big dirt bikes but to me a big dirt bike is something like a Husky 701, it's a travel bike something you can ride through rough terrain if you come across it when touring. People are being sold a lie in my opinion. Manufacturers stick a world class rider on their product and then make an advert showing what he can do and the gullible think buying the bike will enable them to ride like him3 points

Depends what sort of offroad you're referring to though. I'm talking about the sort of radical terrain that @Sir Fallsalot does from time to time. Sure, there's guys with the ability to get a GS through that sort of stuff.....but why risk potentially wrecking a 20K machine when you could get a cheap WR250 which would be much better suited.2 points

Disagree, there's riders out there who can ride these thing off road and the bikes are capable. The consumer have eyes bigger than their stomaches. Those of us with biking experience soon get to grip with this.2 points

That's my thoughts on it although there is an exception in my view and that's the one bike to do it all on scenario, where you can only afford or got room for one bike therefore you buy a bike aimed at what you do most like touring and then make do on what you use it least for. What i cant get my head around is buying a big adventure bike to ride tough technical terrain all the time. The CRF Facebook group is full of that type and they think you bought the wrong bike if you don't go off road with it and they are the vast minority the majority use it for road riding1 point

Can't argue that. I got mine for the comfort, never got on with sports bikes. They did the same with the big Yam ad wise. I had a test ride for a day, bloody sales man knew what he was doing.1 point

Think that's just a retro scrambler, although looking again I think thats just retro. An off-road bike doesn't have to have a big front wheel but it helps. I'd have said suspension travel's more important. Wouldn't have said my tracers an off road bike either.1 point

This sort of behaviour is sufficiently unlike normal French "service" to be worthy of note, asked you how you’d like to be finished off?! Blimey that is above n beyond and only €36 euros into the bargain.. likely crack whores, Id get yourself checked.1 point

If i organise a ride i try to limit it to six but no real rule about numbers its up to the event organiser. We started off as seven and met Sarah and her fella on route taking us to nine. There was another group of about six left at the same time on the same route but in the opposite direction we didn't cross paths again that day with the other group1 point
