New toys

After 7000 miles and several countries on the DRZ i want a new toy.   On that last trip to wales on the rocky inclines i really noticed the weight of the old girl.    For trecking around with Jason on the Trans Euro Trail theres quite a lot of road miles to tackle so a larger engine would be good.   For scrambling around with Tony and Chris a smaller engine would be good, but im not buying two bikes. Ive decided on the this; A 2013 KTM 500 EXC with 50 hrs with a gel seat and belly pan.   Ive read of one NZ chap doing a round the world trip on his KTM500 so the engine sounds good.

It might stretch my arms out of my socket and i might live to regret it, but it should be fun finding my limits.
