[Tanx] TA Substitute?

[Karl]

 Sheeeeit.   Eddy you got your ears on?I am in Minnesota for deer season Nov 4 for about 10 days.  Weather is going to change.  I should take a look at air about the 17th (Kathy's birthday 16 and while I can get away the couple of times that duck season started then, going to play motorbike with J might not qualify) and see what is what.Karl in San Jose

 You show, we go! I've got bikes and rooms to spare in case you can get Eddy to come along.Fly into SLC and we can play. If you have time I can recommend Amtrak one way. The ride through the Sierras is spectacular

 Yeah the whole story is superb for that bike.  Same weight as our beloved TA... Thumper, is it aircooled?  I would like one, with really nice dirt genes.  
Your pic looks like perfect wilderness for TA and J.Still want to come experience the 20 mile burgers!Do I need a bike to visit?Karl in San Jose

 Did he say over 400 pounds? For a thumper?!?! Website lists 412 pounds no fuel so ~440 with gas. 
The price is nice but dealers are few and I'd question parts availability. Italian brands are notorious for long waits and expensive parts. Beth loves Ducati and has two. Even the modern one has a minimum of 1 week wait for anything other than a spark plug.
On a positive note, I put new Dunlop 606s on my TA and took it out in the wild yesterday. It was a love affair reborn. It gave up little to my CRF250 and was certainly more comfortable. I'm taking it to Death Valley in 2 weeks. I'll report back after that.

P.S. The road straight ahead is a blast at 55mph. 20 miles ahead are my favorite burgers in Utah.The road to the right gets gnarly fast and didn't allow for any pictures!
