kmac Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Let it be known, I am NOT an ATGATT guy. I appreciate you folks who only ride ATGATT, but it is not for me. I love a nice summer ride in T-shirt, jeans and open face helmet with the warm sunshine on my face....However, when I ride off-road in the dirt, wheelies, wheels off the ground.....I always wear full MX helmet, and a good one at that, goggles, gloves, good pants with some hip and knee pads, usually a chest protector, and good MX boots...you will fall in the dirt, that is a given, good to be prepared. This guy is a genius though, love his gear, really set up for jumping his HP2. Scroll to page 2, picture 9 I think....I can not get pics to load here. http://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images?_adv_prop=image&fr=yfp-t-701&va=bmw+r1200+hp2+enduro+frame Link to comment

FlyingFinn Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 I know! Socks WITH sandals is such a fail. -- Mikko Link to comment
kmac Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 Yes Paul that is the guy. Thanks for helping post that. Birkenstocks are a fail right out of the gate... Link to comment
kmac Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 I am thinking someone needs to add some compression and slow down some rebound, maybe play with sag and spring rate....maybe even slow down fork compression...seeing as he looks like he has a pretty good kick off of what looks like a pretty small jump. That or maybe he needs to learn to just stay even on throttle thru the face of the jump....after putting on a helmet and at least some Crocs.... Link to comment
Ponch Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I don't dress like an astronaut when I ride, but that is stunad. More sand than sanity. Link to comment

kmac Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 Your use of "stunad" made me look up the definition... I love learning a new word. I am more of a Neopolitan....a mutt mix...Irish, Scottish, Native American Indian and God knows what else. My daughter is even more of a mix. My wife is Chilean and a mix Spaniard and Native South American people. Mixing races make for beautiful people in my opinion. My daughter is drop dead gorgeous. Me not so much...lol Link to comment

Her father's family came here in 1720. If you stick around, I might have a few more words you have to look up. Link to comment
