Touratech Porn…

The throne…

As a KLR owner you might think this photo of the BMW-centric Touratech catalogue on top of my toilet is some sort of not so subtle snub of their German motorcycle farcklery. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I love the Touratech catalogue and the fact it is the only reading material on top of my toilet says a lot. This is the place of honour for books, magazines & catalogues in my house. Since my GF doesn’t allow me to have a full bookshelf in the bathroom – WTF??!! I must limit myself to the best of the best in reading material.

Over 1200 pages of farckles…holy cow!

There are BMW, KTM, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda and Husquavarna sections to enjoy. Sadly there is no KLR650 section in this massive catalogue…=-( That doesn’t mean there is nothing here for the KLR owner. There are lots of products that will work on a KLR with little to no modification and lots more that can work if you don’t mind some DIYing. I have a headlight guard project in the works that will see a BMW guard installed on my KLR – I hope!

18hr flight to India? – This is your inflight entertainment!

Even if you don’t plan to ever buy a Touratech product the catalogue is well worth a read for straight up bike porn and ideas for DIY KLR projects. If you don’t have one go to the TT site and ask for a free catalogue. You won’t regret it…=)

No KLR’s, but a fun video I found on ADVrider in this thread.
