Truth be told, I'm sure we've all caught our tiggers 'napping' at least once!  :icon_redface:

It doesnt't look comfortable once during that video, and I do wonder how many times they picked it up!
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?

Bixxer Bob

I love mine, but still think the 800 would have suited me better.  It's akin to sitting astride an elephant, but I do like the way it jus f**ks off when you want it to.

I think he did a good job,on a bike not really designed for that kind of thing? I prefer the Kevin Carmichael film. But definitely not as good as your AT eh Nick? :icon_wink:

Well yeah the AT vids of a similar sort of thing are proper mental by comparison. I think explorer is mega but why take it to a tight and nadgery off road track ( a kids mx course?) and forest? They could have made it look miles better blasting across an open desert, or down a beach perhaps, which is where it would be brill off road. Weird advert that sells a great bike short. :m
