Ok, fortunately for me travel plans have changed and I will be home early enough on Friday to get myself organised for this ride (I think :huh: ).

What time are you thinking of heading out on Saturday? I just need to decide if I ride up Friday night or Saturday morning.

some of it might test the yammy a bit but it should make it ,,Mmmmm dual purpose tyres on them trails :ohmy:

It has Dunlops 606’s front and rear Boony I know people here that fit them to DR’s (opps that doesnt say much for 606’s :blush: )

if you ride the cappucino loop , some of the tighter stuff needs a fair traction tyre,IE: knobby. thats all I was saying, I have no doubt the dunlop would be a good tyre for the rest of the ride.

It will be fine I appreciate your concern you would be surprised where these bigger bikes go :laugh:

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

This sort of Knobby you mean is it Boony? This is a D606

[FezMember]

What is the grading of this ride? What fuel range do we need? How many K’s all up and how long of a day will it be? I may actually dust off the bike for this one.

[glennMember]

My bad,I thought they were these ones,

For a WR450 it would be a grade 2 on a adventure bike facing a snotty muddy hill its a grade 4/5 :laugh: Fuel range around 180 – 220km Fes maybe safe. Its a 600km round trip from Wauchope and back

[FezMember]

Are you serious TB 180 To 220 k’s. I get 100k’s tops out of the WR. Is it really a 600k round trip? I am only asking as I have no idea about the area your riding and I still have nobbies on the old girl ATM.

What’s the plan from Gloucester Greg, through to Stroud then what. I know a track from Stroud to Clarence Town.

Deadly serious Fes, we are fitting a 24 litre tank to old Burple and Mick will be riding his NX as I am sure he is to lazy to fit the my 30 litre tanks to his 650 (in fairness it is a bastard to fit )
Knobbies will be fine 95% of the ride is on dirt of some form or another
