swingset Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I see a lot of interest in offroading & MX, but anyone into dual sport & adventure style riding?I used to be big into offroad, but bad knees & 20 years of other abuse have curtailed my flinging a 2-smoke up gnarly hills, so I'm sort of getting into exploring and hitting the back roads and forgotten trails. Bought a DRZ this year and where the Vstrom won't go the DRZ will. Enjoying it more than I thought I would, and it's nice discovering parts of Ohio that few people on two-wheels ever see.Anyone else into this kind of thing around the c-bus area? I'm always up for doing some riding, if so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gixxie750 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I have a v-strom too and love it. I go with a local group here in cincy called localriders. I also have a drz for when it gets muddy. This is the time of year when i put the sportbike down and and out comes the dirt machines!

warpspeed Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I want to get a drz.....my wallet doesn't want me to though. Hopefully this winter I can pick one up for a reasonable price. I'm looking to stunt it more than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

12oclocker Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I think supermoto and dual sport are more fun that a sportbike. I just wish I could find a supermoto bike that weighed 280lbs and would do at least 150mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
