    Oz - Sand ride

    Some friends of mine did a ride through the desert country on the border of Victoria and South Australia, I couldn't make it but looks like they had a great time.





















    This is an SV650 tuned into a dirtie

    Atgreg, that looks like great fun....though a whole day of riding that soft stuff must have been hardwork! Fair play....

    Me too!!

    Tried the SV when they first came out. Told the salesman 'if they put that motor in a Transalp copy I'll buy one.' Gave up waiting so bought the Alp. The V Strom may have the motor but I just don't like the look of it.

    Great stuff as usual Greg. We don't have a lot of sandy trails over here but the first time you do come across one it certainly takes some getting used to

    Hi Greg, good to see you again! Thanks for the pics! They make me a bit nervous, because from thursday on we'll be in Tunesia for some sand rides. Uuuaaaa!

    Hope to see you in Europe one day
