Title: Surf trip to Baja on my C5
Post by: Hayduke on August 12, 2016, 01:12:15 am

Hello everyone,
Thought I'd post a few pics of my recent trip to Baja. I live in San Diego and now have two trips south under my belt on El Mule. I LOVE THIS BIKE!!!!! It's completely stock w/ the exception of Heidenau K60 tires (which I love). Road noise went up and mpg went down but totally worth it for the dirt. Each trip was around 500 miles and the bike held up great with the board and camping gear. The bike is incredibly stable w/ the surfboard attached, even at 65mph.
Just thought I'd share.
Cheers,
Paul

Thanks for the welcome folks. I'm heading back down to Baja again today if anyone is interested in joining me. Trying to figure out how I could pull this off in January as well. http://www.bamakoadventures.com/en/baja4000/
Completing this on the Classic would be epic!
Cheers,
