    Pretty tough criteria there for sure :laugh:
    As mentioned, if you were not a fan of the 690 :whistle: Well maybe the Husky line might have what you want.
    Either the 610 or the newer TE630 may suit you better :)

    I have ridden with guys on both models & they were both happy with their setups.
    Both models have a good supply of ready to go ADV parts & accessories (screens, bashplates, racks, tanks etc etc)
    And I think the Husky is not too bad on the price front to get onroad (unsure on parts & runing costs etc)

    TB may have some good handle on info since Steve from ADV MOTO has (or had) one recently B)

    One question,, Did you try some different gearing with the 690 ??? I have read some interesting reports on sprocket combos lately ,,,

    Good Luck with your search mate ;)

    There`s a book in that trip I tell ya :laugh:

    This thread is keeping me sane this week, great pics of the bikes, thanx guys. I bet the night with the BBQ, beers with those two legends was a night to remember (the legends being Hartley & Philth of course) :P

    More ride pics would be nice, but can`t blame the boys (too busy ridin` to take too many pics no doubt) :woohoo:

    Cheers

    this is an offer to anyone else that wants it :)

    It will good to meet you Alyssa and Steve, i will leave at about stupid o’clock if you want to follow down.

    PTW

    :laugh: STUPID O`CLOCK :P I like that,,, `cause it`s the same time I will most likely be departing Newy too :whistle:
    If my ride thru the Watagans last night was a teaser, I will be struggling to see too much at Stupid O`clock :pinch:

    Bring it on

    Ace is from the Central Coast and Bones is from Singleton area, but things may change before the ride anyway ,,,,,

    :woohoo: Nice
    I will be watching this with interest, I reckon the WR`s have some work to do to prove their worth as ADV rides :whistle:

    But, if anone can get them up to scratch, it will be you guys ;)
    Funny that as soon as the guy I met on the DSMRA ride yesterday mentioned a couple of dudes on Kato`s and a new WR with Wolfman Luggage,,, I hit the nail on the head so to speak :laugh: It had to be you blokes ,,,,

    Keep us in the loop
