Dunlop Trailmax D609F

Anybody have these, this is what I currently have on mine, factory fitted.

Bit of an odd comparison as they aren't remotely the same class or price.

Also you should be able to pick up ANY bike. It's all about technique, not weight.

Alone in deep sand try picking up a BMW GS
The Versys has been heavily modified as a dual purpose and can go anywhere ...it's pretty much the same height as the GS minus the weight and can cruise comfortably at 160-180. A doodle to pick out of a sandbank.

However when I drop the triumph Rocket I have to call a tow truck

It's not always about technique.

I can comfortably do all that with a pillion, which makes picking it out of the sand even easier And I have done the solo sand thing solo too, wasn't difficult. Don't think I could pick it up after several falls in quick succession though

Most beautiful bike... ever!

I wouldn't call it beautiful but it certainly is interesting.

Still want to hear that supercharger up close and in person.

The photo's don't do it justice... but yeh

Shouldn't that be second most beautiful? Since it's the H2, wouldn't the H2R be more beautiful.

 

[SauRoNZA]

I do love the metal look of it.

Although I'm sure that costs a fortune and probably can't be fixed but needs replacement.

Slightly off topic. Cant afford to buy a bike trailer. How does one register a trailer if you build it yourself?
