After 50 days without riding while she was repaired, i finally have her back! And with a new nose fairing from glorious Nippon. Its so good to be back on two wheels, i was getting a bit soft in the auto, air-conditioned, sofa like estate car.

That is brilliant! I've actually thought about doing the Road of Bones, or BAM road across Russia with a friend or two, and bringing one of those rubber inflatable rafts to ferry the bikes across rivers on.

I think the point is Z3n is a space cowboy on the edge of a frontier unknown to man, he's out there pushing the limits, trail braking into the abyss. Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

Is this an official Kawasaki color scheme? I looked on their website but couldn't find any like it. Is there an internet source for schemes?

It was at a Rochester, NY, dealership. A week later it was gone.

i don't know much about them, they were never released in the US. They are a small economical Dual Purpose bike somewhere between the KLR and the Versys. Its a Vtwin like the Versys. Gets about 45 hp, with a 6 speed tranny

They seem very popular with some RTW types on horizons unlimited, so I would take a look over there

That one?

ZX14 wheels, ZX6R forks, titanium muzzy, ohlins, plus a bunch of other stuff...very nice bike. It's owned by tarzanspuma and I think he's sort of idly considering selling it.

There's another one that some guy who worked at a bike shop in TN? had. I'm pretty sure he doesn't post here anymore. I think it had aftermarket rear sets on it and a full exhaust of some type.

I remember it well and I don't think it was the one posted above by Z3n.

For those who are wondering how you can find posts from users in a thread:
If you have plat, you can type someone's name in to the search by username box and it'll spit out their name and a number. If you click on the little ? below someone's avatar, you'll get all of their posts in the thread. If you look at the address bar, it'll say something like:

code:
http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=0&threadid=2032191&userid=34314
That userid specifies that you only want to see their posts, and you can swap whatever user ID number in there to get all of the posts by a single user. I looked up freeride88's number, swapped it in, and there it was.
