Didn’t realise the TMax was good at MX

Post by Animal »

Friday night on my way home.

Road suddenly turned from tarmac to thick mud - thanks to my local friendly farmers.
Opposite lock both ways for a good 100yds. Stayed on.

Wife said I looked like a ghost when I got home!

The Tmax can do almost anything.....but not MX. There again, the X-ADV is, apparently, surprisingly capable off road, and the only differences between it and the Forza 750 are longer travel suspension and slightly nobblier tyres. In the end its obviously down to rider skill!!!

I once found myself on a Tmax climbing a steep hill (20% gradient) that I suddenly found was covered in ice....really not quite sure how how I got through that, except that I think the CVT helped! Didn't have time for the sheer terror until afterwards!
