Just my IMO but I think you will really like the maintenance required for 690 as compared to the 500. Also consider it's good feeling to be able to run the 690 all day long at 65 MPH on the pavement without being concern with running the engine too hard.. However I definitely see the advantage...

Jim, I just order a case of those ear plugs you suggested. They're selling on Amazon for $29 for 200. Good plugs!

Made it back safety on Friday with a grand total of 3702 miles. As much as I hate to admit it my Renzaco seat is not worth a crap on anything over 200 miles!! My arse has never been so sore. Jim those green ear plugs work great!! I been real happy with the KTM, she ran great with no problems.

Cool that's were I grew up!! Bill, That's just crazy weather you're showing there!!

Darn Bill at first I was getting excited thinking this was a view of the inside of your trailer!! I replaced my K60 front with Kenda Big block tire on Sunday. Now I have what feels like a really bad balance problem that happens from 30 to 40 mph. Removed the rim and re-balanced with no...

Russ, Looking forward to seeing the pic!!

Haircut!! You're getting crazy! I'm mounting a Kenda Big Block front tire this weekend and the beast will be ready to go. I'm heading out next Saturday morning and taking my time getting to TX. The 10 day weather so far looks good down to TX.

Awful quiet here..... Especially with only a week left before the trip. So are we down to a total of 8 riders with Don out of commission ??

Don, Get well soon!!

So on FB I saw that Don got in a crash. Is he alright? What happen?

Jim, Don't forget you will need at least one CC (not a visa/mastercard debit card) which is required to secure your vehicle bond at the Mexico border. This will be refunded back to your CC when we cross back. I just downloaded a Currency converter app and fired up the Google Spanish...

Make sure to notify your bank that you will be in Mexico. It's usually a red flag for them when they see an out of country transactions.

Man it's cold here in ATL. Damn it this the South, those Canucks need to stop sending us all that cold crap! How are you all going to exchange money? Wasn't the ATM the best way to go or am I thinking of when I'm in England???

There's just one rule on this trip, no one is allowed to wear Speedos!

Bill, Did you have that Rekluse clutch last trip? How are you liking it?

Cool, I'm not trying make this a big deal, I just never had to do this before. The bank that has the KTM loan is FreedomRoad Financial. I'm not even sure it's an actual bank. :)

I received the info too. Unfortunately I have a loan on the KTM. So that now means I have go through a bunch of hoops in an attempt to get a letter from the bank stating it's alright for me to take my bike to Mexico. Why in the world would Mexico care if I have a lien on this bike? Especially...

Now if only the parts would get off freaken back order I may be able to get this big mess back together. My current plan is also to ride to McAllen, TX. OK it's a little shorter ride than Papa Chuy at 1157 MI..........

Bout time you rode that thing..
