Any new farkles recently? How are the Mitas holding up?

I'll be spooling up the aftermarket soon for mine and creating a smoking crater in my bank account.

I'm running the Mitas Dakar on my Tenere and really like it so far. Quiet on the road and descent traction off road.
I'm only running the rear and a conti up front.

Got the MEFO Super Explorers on now. The Mitas lasted 3500-4000 miles. @ around 2k miles, I swapped the tread around to get a better bite again.  ;)

Some pics of my AT. Some upgrades/improvements/farkles.   ;D


Some sporty levers, Barkbusters, Wolfman bags, tires, dust, etc...   :D

 Once this rain stops, we need to have a big dirty bike ride-a-thon in da mud!

Plus it will give you a chance to get a recent picture of your bike in the mud...that one is more than a few years old.  :D

Serious mud. My KLX650 experienced that in Panama (1997). No fun.
