Featured Touring Off For A Ride, Back In A Bit....

This morning Haren has sent me another batch of pictures and gopro videos but I'm not sure how to easily get videos up on here.
Any suggestions?

Here's a still out of one clip.

 

Kove 450 overtaking a KTM 500 in mid air

I'll open the next gate .

This Kove 450 rally just flies so well at times it does leave you in awe

 

That's the problem @Pegscraper what bike can do both road and off road miles well?
The Kove 450 rally isn't perfect BUT it seems a lot more near ideal than anything else currently available.
I actually hope for a new British bike revolution; Japanese bikes are crap .... ooh hang on British bikes see their own arse!

Obviously this time, it isnt British versus Japanese, but Chinese Versus Japanese.

The Chinese may have just caused the new storm.
A Yamaha Tenere T7 is a good bike but........ a lardy ba5tard, Why?
Will Yamaha now respond appropriately?
You saw it here first, a dent in the sales says it will.

 

In the past @Pegscraper Ive done enduros etc on a variety of machines, KDX 200 had x3 of those, KX 125, RMX 250 etc.
In those terms the Kove isn't light but show me some other current bike around 150 kgs that is so capable?

I can't find one, and this even includes abs and lots of fuel.

I must admit though, a Kove 800 rally despite being 20 kgs or so heavier is ticking my box and driving me mad
Yes it has a KTM derived 790 in it but........ another Chinese company sorted it; since 2019 CF moto .... umm notice a theme here.... sounds worth a gamble to me even if its CHINESE!

Please talk me out of it and at least save me a few quid!!!

 

You see that is where some of you guys have it wrong!

Mrs E No 2 knows just to say please yourself, if that's what it takes!

 

That was the bizarre thing in a recent dealer conversation. I'm sat at the end of the shop drinking coffee.
The owner said to the Mrs apparently at the other end of the shop about me buying more bikes.
Mrs responded with, "oh yes, he can afford it and he can buy what he wants!"

The wife said "well that put him on the spot!" and she seemed to enjoy it

 

Wow, Sat here doing nothing really as all admin done at 00:52 I thought I'd look up this character from one of my earlier posts.

A very sobering thought indeed.

Very sad.

 

Take me for a day out in the Peaks and you can have a few miles on it if you fancy a try?

As an example, Thursday was around 130 - 140 mile day out.
Roughly split into thirds (on and off road) means unfortunately a significant portion is roads, albeit back roads. No motorways then although I have taken the Kove on them previously to shorten the day.
Will the Husaberg go on a motorway?
An enduro bike, as you well know, isn't really up for this.
