Hi!
Hi all,
I'm currently based in the Tredegar area and am looking to get a bike sorted soon, and am looking for a club to join and get involved with laning again.
Used to have a discovery and have done most lanes in south and mid Wales, still have most of them tracked out on Memory Map.
Once I get the bike, would be nice to meet up with any of you, either joining in on rides or leading them.

Hi Steve,
For all its faults and maintenance needs, I have my mind set on a KTM 450 EXC. Can see me having it for a while and trading in for a WRF450 long term, but gotta own a KTM at some point!

Re: Hi!
Hi Mizz , welcome . Ive had a 350 EXCF for a few years now and shes just the ticket in my mind . Never had a WR , so don't have any nostalgic pangs for old heavy bikes :16:

Re: Hi!
How do you find the oil changes and valve clearance routines on yours? looking at them its the same as the 450.
Love the cowsuit btw!

Re: Hi!
Oil changes 10 min job ( buy the oil filters in a 10 pack work out about £4 ) i do em every 20 odd hours ( did it last week ,was actually 32 hours ). Had the valves checked only once on my last 350 in over 200 hrs , and they weren't even out then . Change the little fuel filter in the petrol tap joiner every now and again (40-50 hours or when bike starts stalling ) Unless I felt something was going wrong inside the engine i tend to leave it alone !! I reckon you can double the KTM schedules when you are only trail riding . The 450 definitely has more punch than the 350 , but its more than enough for me .
P.S Its obligatory that on your first ride out with SWTR that you come dressed as some kind of animal . I never asked why , but Steve insists .

Re: Hi!
Well most of you do act like animals so I thought is fitting, Although monkey costumes would have you all better. Maybe a Gorilla for denzil.
