Very nice, Watts, but it appears to be mainly orange, unlike the blueness of ours.   biggrin

The scenery, however, is much like courses found most everywhere - trees, roots, grasses, ruts, soil and more trees.

Check out these hand guards, they weren't cheap and were tricky to fit but they are really the goods.  biggrin

Integrated mirrors and really strong construction

Also notice the 2 round buttons next to the throttle, 2 waterproof switches built into the brake leaver bracket.

A shot from the front

That orange light is the blinker, a 12v LED I got from Ebay for a couple of dollars each, wire straight up, with built in resistors, I just mounted them inside

a couple of Rubber Grommets, they just sit there and haven't moved yet.

I like the sound of my TTR best as well. I'll get some footage of it this weekend hopefully. It's been ridden on the same trails in Chilliwack as the KTM, does well.
I actually really like the four-stroke, the engine braking, and the satisfying thump of it all.
