I cant tell you what a monster this bike is. It did great i liked riding
it off road.The front felt stuck to the ground and the power was
mind blowing.The 950 was really fun to throw around.I was slidding
the rear in every corner.

Dropped my KLR right where your buddy is, too much front brake on loose sand/gravel on that rock. It was a learning experience.

That's pretty near where I dropped my Tiger too. That pea gravel is a bitch on a 500lb bike!

That's one of my favorite Colorado rides!





Even on a 500lb Tiger!



Sorry to hear about the crash - glad your alright.

Looks alot dryer up there now than a couple of weeks ago. This is what it looked like when we were there;
