Iowa Roll Call

Ok so who has the Blue and Orange KTM Adventure? I was coming up Merle Hay Road and saw one going the opposite direction on Merle Hay this afternoon.

Pretty kick ass bike isn't it? I am horrible with names but one of the guys here knows him well.

On a side note, hosted Tiffany Coates last night. Amazing lady. Hopingto get her back through in June-ish when she can spend a day or two riding with us.

Yeah it was a really good looking bike, in the next year or so I want to pick up either a used R1200GS or used KTM Adventure, may even consider the f800gs. I have only driven the 1200gs and I was in love with it. Never ridden a KTM but man do I like how they look and what they are capable of.

Quite literally, my only complaint about the Multi is that it isn't more of a direct competitor with the GS. I wish it was slightly more dirt friendly.

I love the multi, they are a BEAUTIFUL bike. I just do not have the money for a newer one.

I ride the orange one. I don't know of another orange one around. A guy from Urbandale rides the blue Dakar 30th Anniversary one. Cool bike.

I probably should of worded that better ha. I only saw one KTM and it was blue and orange. After looking up the pictures it is the Dakar version I saw. Very cool bike, I like your orange one alot also!

The orange one is ....ok....
But Kurt's pretty blue one, Man oh Man.

Stopped in at Struthers today and checked out the new Explorer

Did you take it out for a test ride?

Aftermarket fog lights? What's the price?

been thinking about picking up the 800xc for gravel trips and fishing adventures, but wifey spent all my moneys.

I can't answer any questions on the Explorer,
I can tell you that Hicklans Yamaha has a demo Super Tenere if you want to test a real bike.

most of the pics i have seen of the explorer include the fog lights. pretty sure they are a triumph accessory option that works plenty of coin from your pocket.

That's a launch model, includes OEM fog lights, engine bars, tall windscreen, hand guards, TPS, sid plate, etc. I have one

My new bike has lights, all I need is a IA license plate now...

WOW. That's cool. 300?

Oh, I'm so jealous

250. I can't handle a 300.
