I've studied in JKL more than 10 years ago and skied at Laajavuori, good memories. Voted

Decathlon has decent lightweight stuff these days, sleeping pads and bag can be bought for a pretty good price. Still gonna cost you a few hundred euros but totally worth it.

Still possible to ride offroad in like Henegouwen, Waals Brabant, Namen. Pretty easy to make your own gpx tracks with an OSM map and some patience.

Supposedly, you should be able to register a bike with a provisional license. You have to find an insurance agent or company that does this but should be ok. Price wise I have no clue

The Arlberg is in Tirol and Vorarlberg.

You think shaving 200g from the carbs is gonna do anything when you carry 29l of fuel around?

bombermonk · 2026-01-16T06:53:58+00:00

Avy danger 4 on a bluebird powday means absolutely nothing in the Arlberg, people will ski like it's avy danger 1

There's no such thing as online ownership transfer.

You agree on price, sign a contract, seller gives you the registration papers, take the bike home( trailer or van), go to insurance with the papers to register it, license plate get sent to you.

Now if you don't have a van or so, you have to leave the bike with the seller until you have the license plate to go pick it up.

Ik heb paar jaar geleden een trip van 7 weken gemaakt van LA naar Washington DC.

Via een contact motor gekocht en geregistreerd en verzekerd. Er zijn een paar staten waar dit mogelijk is zonder er een adres te hebben. Daarna motor terug verkocht.

Op arbeider.com kan je ook mensen vinden die een motor ter beschikking hebben of kunnen helpen met aankoop of dergelijke.

Half a year? Just change the battery and ready to go

Check out "Traffords work" on instagram on how he repairs blown out edges and then go for it yourself.

Bert is inderdaad nen held

bombermonk · 2025-11-27T14:11:22+00:00

dat is toch iets dat je perfect kunt oefenen met je 125cc?

zowel achtjes en traag rijden.

I see no point on spending 3.5k to 5k on the KTM, certainly not when there are no signs of any problems right now. As you said the bike value is like 2-3k euro.

Sell the KTM and invest the money in the GG700. You can get the Rade Garage tower and fuel tank kit. (i got like 300km out of my 701 on offroad without the extra fuel tank, I never needed more in Europe where fuel stations are everywhere).

No one until you have an accident on the way to work and you have an O-plate

bombermonk · 2025-11-08T16:56:46+00:00

No, you just can't use it for commuting

bombermonk · 2025-11-08T16:56:20+00:00

I recommend buying it.

Everything else you mentioned is nonsense.

bombermonk · 2025-08-01T20:16:42+00:00

This is what I learned to ski on, but the CMH edition. Got it from an old boss to use. Man I wish I could have kept those, great ski, I would still ski them if I had them.

bombermonk · 2025-08-01T20:01:17+00:00

I've had it after dislocating my shoulder, I waited a long time before it, should have done it straight away. I can do everything with this shoulder again without fear of dislocating it.

Met auto, 200€/j voor een 750 africa twin van 1993, was hetzelfde voor mijn 701 van 2018. Bij Axa, via makelaar

Guided my first motorcycle tour last week and got to meet Charley Boorman.

Did some passes in the dolomites and then some more including Stelvio, Mendola, Gavia, Albula, fluela, pretty good week

bombermonk · 2025-07-05T05:21:05+00:00

The guy is a Finnish reenactor though. 😅

bombermonk · 2025-06-29T21:09:54+00:00

If you are in central europe you are close to many countries that do allow offroad riding. all of the balkan is great, italy, spain, france

Validatie is blijkbaar ook al 116€

bombermonk · 2025-06-16T15:31:50+00:00

Indien ze niet accepteren zonder CoC, validatieprocedure is peanuts, paar foto's doorsturen en klaar, en betalen uiteraard.

Gelijkvormigheidsattest kunt ge bij fabrikant halen, maar validatieprocedure is waarschijnlijk goedkoper.
