One thing that is good about having to remove luggage mounts from a bike is you get the chance to revive them. A little BBQ paint and they are good as new. These are Cheryl’s Jesse mounts before she reinstalled them on her 800. I did the same for my future 800 that should be…
There are few things that when you buy new bikes that you must have as repeat farkles (accessories). We have a few that we will use again and again as long as we ride DS bikes. Fork seal protectors for one…the owner says use sunscreen on the outside…sounds weird but makes sense. Keeps them from…
I am really loving these videos and XOverland dot com We rode with Ryan who is the rider in this video….top quality and shows what it take to make a reality video….
If anyone has been around the Parliament Building in Ottawa you will know what we are doing in this picture is not the most legal. There is not parking or stopping in front of this building…the funny thing is I made Cheryl stop for a photo OP…but look in the back ground….RCMP cruiser. Cheryl is…

Now that Cheryl has her 2013 BMW F800GS, which bike should Leslie BUY? Just for fun…..;-) If you say other then comment which one please! 😉
It appears that BMW may have changed a few things on their new model. As for the frame, that seems to be the same as previous years so things like skid plates, luggage mounts etc should fit. But other accessories other than BMW parts might not fit. ADV Spec crash bars will not fit…so..hmmmm..has the…
Exciting day for Cheryl as she got the paperwork done on her new F800GS. Me, Leslie being conservative looks at our garage and thinks….”HOLY, we need to get rid of some bikes!” Have a look! As usual all pics can be click for LARGER sizes. Very hard to concentrate this week on work. We have…

I feel the need to highlight another ADV trip. We met Guillaume at Pacific Motosports back in July the day he was leaving on his 6 month trip. Nice guy, got himself a brand new 2012 F800GS that day and seriously after we got done speaking about his lone adventure he was off on day…
Just like that…we are going to be owners of two 2013 BMW F800GS bikes…in a blink of an eye…Why Beemers and not the Triumph Tiger 800XC? Hmmmm…we have accessories than can transfer from our 650’s to the 800’s. 3 year warranty and to be honest while we LOVED the Tigers, the BMW’s feel more like…
