I was online not that long ago, reading a magazine test article on those bikes. I have looked but can’t find the link yet. It said that a US Magazine in about 2003 had voted them the best true ”dual purchase Bike”
The article also went on to say that a bloke in Australia called “Tony T……….”, had proven how good they are, that he had done really well on them in something like enduro safari thing, or something like that.
Is that you they are talking about by any chance Tony?
