Since Avon shut their UK plant it’s been difficult to get hold of any of their 17 inch tubed rear tyres for the Tenere.
So I thought I’d try a Continental trail attack 3. A nice easy fit and should last longer than the previous Avon Roadrider that was worn out in less than 4k miles.

Autumn is my favourite time of year for offroading, especially after a big storm.
Slippery enough to make picking a line that gives max grip interesting and all sorts of hazards hiding beneath the leaves to catch me out.

What madness is this, putting the reg/rec there, that hugger won’t stop it getting covered in road shite.

It’s the time of year to be checking inside the bike gear.
They’re on the prowl.

Always surprised how clean the oil looks when I change the gearbox oil on the little 2 stroke compared to what comes out of a 4 stroke.I guess it’s because it doesn’t come into contact with combustion gases leaking past the rings like on a 4T.

That engine needs to be on show it’s so odd looking but so practical for maintenance. Sometimes miss the massive LT fairing, never ridden anything else so stable at speed and sheltered from wind and rain.

Last week I wanted a KTM Super adventure 1290, this week I want a Moto Guzzi Griso, I wonder what bike I’ll fixate on next week.
The brick’s staying for the time being.
