Here's the story.......

About 1hr into our ride out to Bandera I managed to get a hole in my tire. We stopped plugged it aired it with a Portable 12V air compressor compliments of "train460." You guys GOTTA get one of these I believe they have them at Wal-Mart. Anyways so back to the story second mishap 3 sportbike guys joined us saturday morning and one got a rock through his radiator probably 30 min into the ride. Randy on the Kawasaki Concours went on an offroad adventure. Broke his left clipon, left rearset bracket, and got some scratches. Later down the road my plug flew out so my tire went flat again. So we plugged it aired it and while doing so Sean and Gareth did a high speed driveby as seen in video and when they returned to no avail Sean's radiator got a rock through it. Pam had an offroad adventure thanks to fckn Bambi. I managed to get my front tire 2 ft in the air at the downslope of a hill scared the $hit out of me but it was well worth it. Anyone else that was there can add to the story. I KNOW I didn't get it all........

why does it seem that there is always a rock finding a way to ruin a radiator? I must say I like the side mount rc radiators more and more. Dude...the sv is definetly different and would keep you out of trouble...the yosh on that bike sounds amazing

.. last couple trips to the hills have been murder on radiators and tires! Luckily all the offroad episodes on our trip stayed upright.

I've been thinking that a Concours would be the ultimate road trip machine from Houston to there and back.

Bet that air under the tire episode was on 335.. that road ROCKS!!!
