I say cafe it, just 'cause it'll make some purist somewhere cry a little; you'll also have the only one on the block so it'll be double bad ass.

Doubletakes are the bees knees, but a little pricey. I honestly have had excellent luck with the visibility and durability of the stockers. If you don't keep 'em too tight they fold out of the way...

They're all awesome in that area. If you know you'll end up in Randle, where the 25 road drops out of the Gifford Pinchot, I can possibly offer front yard space and a tour of an organic dairy farm...

I've run a Bridgestone ED04 Gritty 120/90 in the rear and a Kenda Trakmaster II 80/100 in the front. The Gritty was awesome, on and off-road, and outlasted the stock deathwing, but the Trakmaster...

Finding a vented cap seems like a simple option, though I know they are expensive new, perhaps a used one can be found. Good luck.

I have bigger than that Kendas on mine right now so they should. I've had up to a 120 on the rear without any trouble. I would say that any bigger would be cutting it a little close though.

I've got an 07 with about 9k on it and there's really been no reliability issues.
About a thousand miles ago I had some hard starting issues and found it to be that I should have been paying more...

The DR200 would fit your bill if you can find a hook up over seas for the kick start. I've never had mine not start and I've pop started it several times just for fun and it's easy. The aftermarket...

Any of them are good choices. I would personally stay away from the TW and XT since the ones I've encountered were extremely unreliable. The DR200 is great, I ride mine everywhere, but a little on...

I've done plenty of days with hundreds of miles in the saddle just not very many where I was all that far from home. Lots of logging and forest circus roads in SWW WA.
