Right - I have it in my head I want a dual sport to fill up all that extra space in the garage. My quest for a new motorcycle actually started there (F800GS), but ended when I test drove the FJR (go figure).

I recently (finally) test rode the F800GS and was pleased.

That said, I'm kinda watching for a low mileage DRZ400 locally and lusting.

So, entertain the bejeesus outta me and post up pics of your dual sport rides!

Bonus points for pics of bikes IN THE DIRT, naturaly.

Needless to say we are not into big big bikes or long stretches of pavement.

 
Here's mine doin' what it does best

But far more importantly is where a DS will take you. There are no paved roads leading to or in this photo.

It's got exactly as much "dual" as the FJR, but on the other side. :)

As you can see from the trees, the bike is almost vertical
