I have had my 2001 AdventureR for a few
months now, little dirt riding as the
UK countryside was closed. I have tried it
on a motocross course and on a trail riding
day (mostly xr250/tt250's along).
I love this bike, I can ride 150miles, spend
a few hours on the dirt then ride home. For a novice like me it makes it easy with great suspension. My only problems have been:
a) Fuel starvation when going over (small) jumps
b) A bloody uncomfortable seat
c) Starter sometimes can't turn over the engine.
c) is easy. Just pull the decompresion lever open, close it again and, hey presto, it starts first push of the button.
The fuel tap looks soooo vunerable, anyone
know how to protect it?
Advised to fit a wire from rear brake pedal to
bash plate, stops the brake lever bending into
the engine in a spill, the holes are there already.
Off to the sahara at Xmas, we will see!!
