Iv always seen its on the western side of the state, it does pass not too far from my deer camp Clam Lake area but there is so much forest / logging roads, power lines, etc everywhere in WI I prefer just exploring them. Im in Northern Oconto and Marinette County so got plenty here also out my back door. Small street legal enduro's are the most fun, my fat old buds on their Harley's are actually getting jealous.

Didn’t hear if his valve clearances were tight, but Pete actually just got it put back together after bringing the engine to someone more experienced. They found the piston was .060 overbore with the wrong size rings. Hence the oil consumption. He says it’s starting, and running much better now 👍🏻 Thanks for the comment!

I strongly suggest a test ride if you see one for sale. I think it would provide all the fun feel of the vintage bike with a small upgrade without going modern. If one day, you guys decide to really go serious and bigger, I strongly suggest a Suzuki DR 650. That bike has not changed since '96 and there is a reason its still made today. A true round the world ADV bike once set up without all todays complicated tech. Just beware the DR is nearly 400 pounds vs the XT 225 which weighs 240.

@onemilemore541 Жыл бұрын
Resource for trails, that’s a good question. I forget where I got the GPX tracks for my GPS. I believe there’s a few sources if you Google it. Having the GPS was pretty vital to follow the TWAT. It is also the first proper trail system I’ve ridden on a bike. From what I found in the past, trails can be tricky as different ones are open at different times of the year. I really like exploring back roads/dirt roads and have been surprised how many there are not far from home. The beauty of a dual sport bike 👍🏻 I’ve recently found a couple of Wisconsin Facebook groups that may be a good resource. Honestly, I haven’t looked closely into it yet… Can’t seem to get the link to work, but the groups I found are: “Wisconsin ADV Riders“ and “Wisconsin Dual Sport Riders Group“. Hope this helps and happy trails! As for the Northern Wisconsin Adventure Trail, I guess great minds think alike… 😉 There should be some videos before that, though

Good question. Yes they do. On the northern half (see part 1 video), there’s a fair amount on ATV trails, but still the majority is on “roads”

Interesting, I’d never witnessed it happen before. I also had a Blaster. Well, technically it was Matt’s. Fun quad 👍🏻
