Did he say over 400 pounds? For a thumper?!?! Website lists 412 pounds no
fuel so ~440 with gas.

The price is nice but dealers are few and I'd question parts availability.
Italian brands are notorious for long waits and expensive parts. Beth loves
Ducati and has two. Even the modern one has a minimum of 1 week wait for
anything other than a spark plug.

On a positive note, I put new Dunlop 606s on my TA and took it out in the
wild yesterday. It was a love affair reborn. It gave up little to my CRF250
and was certainly more comfortable. I'm taking it to Death Valley in 2
weeks. I'll report back after that.

J.

P.S. The road straight ahead is a blast at 55mph. 20 miles ahead are my
favorite burgers in Utah.
The road to the right gets gnarly fast and didn't allow for any pictures!

You show, we go! I've got bikes and rooms to spare in case you can get Eddy
to come along.
Fly into SLC and we can play. If you have time I can recommend Amtrak one
way. The ride through the Sierras is spectacular

 Sheeeeit.   Eddy you got your ears on?I am in Minnesota for deer season Nov 4 for about 10 days.  Weather is going to change.  I should take a look at air about the 17th (Kathy's birthday 16 and while I can get away the couple of times that duck season started then, going to play motorbike with J might not qualify) and see what is what.Karl in San Jose

 Air is 200 bucks, cheap!  I am taking aim.  What dates look right?Heck Amtrak is 17 hours I am down for that one way if there are other times than offered.  Arriving middle of the night defeats the purpose.I am looking to arrive 17th and leave 21?  Is that too much Karl and burgers?OK talk offline I guess.  Don't want to make your TANX crew envious.  Hell, I am envious and I am planning on going :)Karl408-489-6020

Arriving on Amtrak late at night is a bonus since you can kick back and
relax as the train crosses the boring Nevada desert. You get the Sierras
during the day and then take a nap.

I am in San Diego and Death Valley until the end of the month. After that
(1 Nov) is good.

I'll send pictures of the TA in DV.
