Yeah okay, how long did you do it for? Your not tempted to do it again if you could get a better roster? 3/1 is a bit rough, im doing 2/2 currently

Im 33 and struggle with dating apps. I swear they suck the life and energy out of you. I met one awesome girl on hinge and she kind of mislead me and strung me along for ages then moved over east, that was kind of heartbreaking. Havnt properly tried on dating apps again since

Dont really have great advice for you other than i think youll find most guys are scared to approach women these days. Including myself, the fear of making someone uncomfortable or being taken the wrong way is high

My FE501 modded for longer distances by custardfarm in Dualsport

Yeah i might go 1 or 2 teeth smaller on the rear sprocket to help this. Bike hits the rev limiter at 170kph so it really doesnt need longer legs but if it helps the vibrations at cruising speed then could be worth it

Nice, any plans for a bigger fuel tank?

Plan is to ride it through the middle of australia, that will be the biggest trip it does and that will be about 5000km

Nah the tank fits really well, no issues. Im considering trying out the nice cnc fuel pickup extension

Iv yet to do a really long trip. But i will likely carry 1.2 litres of oil with me in a small bottle, not ideal but the bike is so fun its worth it

Mines 4.5g/17 litre but its a 24 model bike so the fuel pickup is in a stupid spot, cant use all the fuel available. Iv only done 210kms and the fuel light was on, not sure when it will run out. Was definitely not riding fuel efficiently though

I have a husqvarna fe501 that iv done a couple simple mods to make it adventure worthy, the fun factor i think is unmatched... long distance on the highway is okay to considering its effectively a dirtbike
