    One of my mates in Oz regularly used his Tuono V-twin as an off-roader (usually going too quick).
    Got tired of extracting it from the scrub, so got an Tenere 1200 instead.
    Used to have a KTM 300 two smoke, but ended up in hospital too many times.
    I'd decided to get off a CBR1000RR, after OD-ing on adrenaline at 285kmh (police radar). Copper didn't believe his radar gun, so let me off with a warning.
    Swapped it for a Husqvarna TE450 - two trips to hospital (crushed veterbrae and concussion). Decided that I should get some practise on a DT230 - one trip to hospital - crushed veterbrae/concussion getting to close to the neck.
    Decided dirt 2wheelers and I don't 'gel' - now punting a BMW R1200RT, and enjoying life without hospital visits.
    IF I was going back on dirt - quaddie for me. 4 wheels can hurt, but you do go a lot slower. Tipping over isn't fun, so 'calculated risk management' - or walk.
