If we head to Waco on Sunday I'm game for trying it out. I may not get far down the road, but I ain't skeered.

well, it has been dry enough lately that now would be the time to try. But I still ain't subjecting my bike to that.

I will do it...once it cools off a bit. I'm thinking late Sept. or early Oct. time frame. And Rhino, you don't got a hair on your ass if you don't take the Ninja for the ride.

It's ok, it's just an opportunity for the Versys to prove why it's better than mere sport bikes. :D

Well, I will wait for you guys at the end of the road. I am not brave enough to do that type of off-roading with my street bike :) You will have to take video too while you are both going down it.

First, I'd be glad to prove just how much hair is on my ass.

Second, why would I wreck all the best parts of my track bike on a dirt road? I don't have a problem taking a sport bike on it, I'm just not taking *my* ZX when I've got a bike I'm more willing to sacrifice.

I'd be glad to ride an orange CBR down that road though. Like I said, I ain't skeered. :D

Absolutely, I have no doubt about whether or not it can handle that section of road.

nope, you have to ride the bike there, down the road, and back. Doesn't count if you don't make it all the way on the same bike.

Hey, this is sckego's game, thus he makes the rules. He didn't say anything about riding a motorcycle down the road. I'll go hike it with someone. :-)

Think they widened that road. It's just a gravel road now. Nothing like the vids on youtube of those 3 dualsports on that horrid stretch of trails. It is a good excuse for a nice ride and a fast way to ruin a fresh detail, but nothing special. Still, the idea of taking sportbikes through terrain they were never designed for is interesting, I'm sure you could find one in that area during the day, I just couldn't find one at night.
