Guest Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 I just won a pair of offroad wheels + tyres for my CCM 604, so I'll be up for a bit greenlaning soon! Not sure of where abouts to go though? Does anyone have any links to maps or anything for the Newcastle area? Cheers! Quote
Stu Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 been thinking of getting a bike for greenlaning as some how i think the TL will struggle Quote
Guest Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Get yourself a cheapo Chinese Honda copy with some decent offroad tyres! I had one, got it for £400 on a '06 plate, and it was actually quite canny (for a piece of shit). It got nicked though, so I then got a DRZ400E which was great... but it got nicked 2 weeks later. I now have a CCM 604E R30 & just got some offroad wheels and tryes off Fleabay, so I'm eager to get them, fit them & have a bit play about, see what she's like before it gets pinched! Quote
jabcrosshook Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Dirt bikes seem to be extremely popular for thieves. Quote
truxx Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 I absolutely love the ccm 604's ,quality bike (Yes,i'm jelous)As far as getting a cheapo chinese bike i would seriously avoid that.I think mine lasted all of about 10mins off-road before the spokes collapsed.(that's not including all the other faults in the time i had it)Anyway,maps; not a problem.I know where most of them are in the area,and i also have a programme that tells me where the rest of 'em are ...Let me know when your up for it.
