Hey all,

First off, thank you for starting this forum. I'm an IT guy and have been pounding on computers/servers and the Internet since early 1992 and I cannot tell you how frustrating the "mega thread" is over at adv. It's worse than a throw back to the mid 90's BBS boards. Great info here and I hope to be able to add to it.

I've had my M1 since I was 16 but have been off of bikes for about a decade. Recently finished the MSF basic course for a refresher and then picked up a 2014 690 R from Berts Mega Mall about a week and a half ago. The bike is amazing although I'm still breaking her in and getting the initial round of goodies delivered by the brown truck.

My buddy has a te650 and we plan on exploring all the dual sport trails we can find through our area while working up to an all-dirt run to Vegas next year (I live in Rancho Cucamonga).

So far I purchased the upper/lower tank bolts, thermostat switch (all from ktmtwins) and the nexgen hanguards from HDB.  Going to go the FMF header/slip on and EVO airbox route in the next round of updates.

Cheers.

Hi, are you that IT guy that has been calling me telling me my computer has been infected and I need to go to the remote server page for his professional windows help?
