Thanks,
Mike M.

FNG Introduction

Just bought a new to me DR 650 and am getting used to it, way diffent than my 1200 Bandit but in a good way. Any advice on books,classes and training to speed up my learning curve, I'm kind of reluctant to ride off road by myself at this point do to my lacking skill set. I've looked into Ramey's Sch...
