End of the world bike
When 2 adv riders get together at a local dive and chit chat about bikes and politics…the latter, being a waste of breath and a pint.
![]() We've all seen, some variations of a movie based on, the "Zombie Apocalypse", right? My favorite, "The Walking Dead". So, what is your choice for the, "one" motorcycle to have during the zombie apocalypse, and why? |

A diesel-powered bike (e.g., military KLR) might be worth considering. Also, forget about EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection), given control electronics' vulnerability to EMP. |

My Yamaha XT250. Small, light, easy to ride, does not eat to much gas,70 miles per gallon or better, I am use to riding it, easy to fix, dependable after riding 9,000 miles, gets me to where I want to go, able to go on the road or off road, fun to ride.

Haha, I have a C100 and I'm pretty sure even a zombie could catch me on that thing.
Put me down for the diesel--fill er' up with veggie oil if you have to and gets a million mpg's so you don't run out of fuel with an angry, blood thirsty horde on your tail. |
