Alex and her MuZ Baghira - it was love at first feel!
the first step for preparing our world-trip was to change the motorbikes. So Alex sold her loved 97' XJ600N and bought aYamaha XTZ660 Ténéré built 1999.
After conquering successfully a few mointains in Switzerland and Italy, the XTZ attract attention with her disadvantageous center of gravity and the high positioned seat.
Than Alex found her Baghira and knew - this bike or no one!
Modified with fuel tank and seat by KTM, enduro tires and fit to Alex' height, 'Baghi' could already master Trainings and outdoor trips beside asphalt.

To the beginnig of her beeing as motorcyclist, she drove a 78' XS400 and after becoming sure a new XJ600N toke place in her garage.

My loved XL - since more than 65.000 thousands of kilometers we are a team! I hope that she never looses her positive points...!
After selling  my good 'old' FZS600 Fazer (the only pretty one - the serie from 1998) I bought also a XTZ build 1997. As I visited my Garage ( because of the engine damage of my XTZ ) I found my new motorbike by accident - the Honda XL 600LM was the new one that had to be bought!

At my career as motorcyclist I have always been faithful to the Japanese motorbikes ;-)) Started - how so many else - on a YAMAHA XS400 from 1978. Than made a dream come true - a RD350 LC build 1983
- only to fly could be better!
