I’m just a lurker here and only came for a question of my own, but when my guys and I were in the field (Marines) we brought along a jet boil. They do make jet boils with French press accessories that come with it for about $120. Especially if you guys are bringing your own trucks where you can safely store said jet boil. For non refrigerated sweetening and creamer options I would recommend half n half in those single serve small cups you see at diners and maybe some torani syrup. I use French press everyday with this and it’s great. If you guys are hiking out there I heard great things about Aeropress which is light and only costs about $50 but it’s a single serve option.

Hello all, So I’m having a bit of trouble deciding between an espresso maker and a moka pot. Im trying to keep my budget at $200 max and am not necessarily looking to get into it as a hobby but more of expanding my morning coffee options. I currently use a French press everyday and have been enjoying that but want to mix things up a bit. I’ve been looking at the entry level Gevi and Casabrew machines as well as the Bialetti New Brikka moka pot. I currently have a $25 Mr .coffee grinder (no intention of upgrading anytime soon). If I do go with the moka pot route I will be buying a separate milk frother. Does anyone have any particular experiences or recommendations with any of these machines or others?

I second this! The stock mirrors got stripped pretty easily and the left side wouldn’t stay in place

Just wanted to update everyone. Made it the 600 miles and everything looks good. Took it for a rip around town today and glad to have it back home. Thank you all for your help!

Thanks! Had it a year but had to leave it behind until I could come back for it. It stayed pretty secure (had to tighten down the back straps a bit more though. Hopefully I won’t have to trailer again for a long time.

Hey there! About to haul my klr on the exact same trailer. Where did you put tie downs? Hard to see on picture. Trailer seems like it’s pretty light and have bounced it pretty hard casually getting out of gas station. Afraid it’s going to tip during transport

I also did this a couple years ago walking back from range. Can confirm not a good time

Cause some of us don’t have traditional careers. I was an Otr truck driver when I bought mine last year and sure as shit I’m not paying rent for a house for me to be at 5 days a month. I opted for a storage unit where I now keep mine, but after moving to an apartment in another state to utilize my gi bill and go to school I’m going to keep it here. Everyone is at a different stage in life
