Couple more pictures from last year
This road could of so been washed out but.... we made it Though!
Mcclean creek FLUZ, Had no problems in the mud, but some of the washed out trails and climbs realy tested the rider and the bike.

now that's a lot of KMs.. Have you been taking it on some big trips or is that mostly just daily riding?

did the 685 at 14'000, doo and thermobob at that time too. it uses 2.5l every 2500km lol. I don't ever put enough miles on the oil change to see if it burns any.

I am thinking this winter I am going to do the 685 and thermobob! Already done the doo. Mine has 20,000 km and it used some oil on my last trip to BC. It was ridden likE itb was stolen and hot maybe that had something to do with it?
