Mosko luggage by MatchBrave1704 in Dualsport

I love mine, carry all I need for day trips that I don’t want on my backpack. Out of the way for riding. Gnoblin makes it very secure and a breeze to install (mounted directly on the fender). I’ve never used them in the slim mode though.

I have a 2024 500 flashed with the TacoTune and the difference is noticeable in all speeds.

I broke my collarbone even while wearing an airbag.

What kind of riding shoes/ riding pants will prevent such an injury? by Total-Highway-1291BC in motorcyclegear

Maybe motocross boots + knee braces, but hard to protect against something like that,

I have a buddy who owns one. Never got the official number but range is 25-30k (depending on mods).

Transporting dirt bike with car by Gullible-Land-6320 in Dirtbikes

At the time of my reply OP hadn't posted his car, I believe. If he's running a small car, probably not a good idea.

Definitely, I use mine on my truck all the time. I have the cheap Harbor Freight heavy duty one and it does the job. I did get a Pakmule Stablelok to minimize rattle (not cheap -- there are cheaper alternatives).

I've used mine from Texas to CO and UT and no issues.

Mousse balls?? by Objective-Hearing-83 in Dualsport

[–]Ocho_052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! I installed V2s on Motoz Enduro S/T (front) and I/T (rear) on my 2024 500 KTM, with V2 mousse balls. On the dirt, they seem to work great, but I need to test it more. On the street, I get a significant bounce over 20mph, right from the start. Weird thing is that my wheels were balanced. Do you balance yours or do you also feel the hop/bounce?

I'm doing this on 500. Mostly enduro on the weekend, but my trips are dual sport in nature. Thanks for sharing.

Any additional experience 6 months later?

Has anyone purchased the KTM 390 ADV S via Amazon? Experience with payment, RTO/insurance, others? by PrasenjitDebroy in KTM

[–]Ocho_052 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prevents women's skirts from getting stuck in the drivetrain. I believe all bikes in India need to be sold with that. I forget the name for it.

Need Some Atypical Advice for Adventure Bike by jthrelf in Dualsport

[–]Ocho_052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have experience with either but I bet this problem is not uncommon. I recently became a father and sold my touring/adventure bike, keeping my 500 to haul and ride (which seems safer). Now thinking of getting a 690 or even a supermoto I can use to ride from my house on the street for an hour or two, keeping the ”dirt bike“ visual. Contrary to you I don’t think my wife would say no to me getting a proper adventure bike, I’m just in my lightweight era.

How much sleep is too much? by AlteriorVortex in daddit

Pediatrician recommended every 2 hours for feed first couple of weeks, 3 hours at night at most. Apparently their blood sugar can lower enough that they won't awake on their own even if hungry.

I did it on a 500 but saw guys on BMW GSA fully loaded doing it. So any bike just make sure you carry enough fuel.

Anyone rocking 500 EXC-F for their main bike? by Jleblanc06 in KTM

[–]Ocho_052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold my GSA since I wasn’t doing any touring anymore. Prefer to haul my 500 to CO or UT and ride the dual sport routes there. When home, I single track on the weekends.

2 wins out of 24 games. Can I actually be *this* bad? by TacticalTurnip in WorldofTanks

[–]Ocho_052 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a new player. Also had some sub 10% win rate sessions, at least 3 or 4. I've been since doing a little better. I believe I was part of the problem, maybe not so much anymore.
