Morocco Adventure 2016

[Wreford Miles]

Just picked the EXC up from Tourque Racing...

Desert tyres and mouses
Extra Oil capacity curtesy of that shiny clutch cover
Chain, sprockets, brake pads, fork seals
Properly wired in GPS, LED light, USB
The Grand Loop fits well
Really pleased with the 5 Lt tank bag
Tools, check; Spares, check; Top tips from Martin, check

Mr Moon your 690 is looking very shiny

What's the recommendation on chain lube, I've a new waxy chain, do I resits making it oily sticky (which I assume is bad for the sand)

Bike looks great Wreford!
I use dry chain lube on all off road bikes, last thing you want is it act like a grinding paste

Looks fast just sitting there does that

It is quick, I'm liking it a lot. Might have it lowered, I can get on and off but it's a stretch and I'm 6 foot.
