Zardez Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 sounds like a goer, i might have to get me a postie bike i have a mate trying to get rid of one too haha i reckon sling is the way to go, you can control your own fall and save the rifle. an affixed hardcase might be a good idea for the long hike into wherever you are heading though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB1 Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 I use a ktm 450 for hunting deer, way too much power but heaps of fun, have tried to attach koplin boot but have found a soft bag across my back the most comfortable and safe way to go. Love the postie bike idea, cheap and functional if your missus lets you have a track bike as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worm Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 You can get away with just a knobby for the rear for traction. I paid $80 fitted for mine. Im still using the standard front and haven't had a puncture yet. Im not a speed daemon though, dont really want to bin it (and damage by rifle haha). If you want to go max stick all over the joint maybe a knobby for the front is better Although, you may know all of the above anyway in which case carry on...
