Yes today I had the bike booked into BM Motorcycles to have some TKC80's fitted to replace the factory fitted anakee's ready to do some dirt trials. Jumped on the bike and sure enough I had a flat rear tyre, those anakee's were living up to their name; so in all of 70km they had managed to find a small nail what the f&^%$...
Onto BMW road assist and they transported my bike to BM. (for an additional charge).
Now I was getting round to putting the toolkit together that includes tyre/tube repairs (this would entail more thought than my WR toolkit), but after this experience will have to put that higher on the list...
anyhow after having the TKC80's fitted I found the road riding includes a little more vibration but acceptable; to be expected of those knobs.

This blog follows the trials and tribulations of a couple of enduro riders normally accustomed to riding Yamaha’s WR400 etc. who have decided to take on the ‘Dual Sport’ animals with the idea of travelling Australia using as little as possible of that black stuff. Follow them as they purchase the BMW F800GS set them up for dirt riding and learn how to ride them in ‘real’ off-road conditions. Then take them across some of the harshest tracks throughout Australia.
