The most sensible review I've ever seen.  Makes me want to search out more of this guy's stuff.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much more informative than the usual crap in print media.

Yeah, I like the way he rolls.
If I didn’t have one, that would have prepared me adequately for what I was in for.

Finally, a review from someone who really knows off road riding.  I have noticed that the fork usually comes in for some criticism for serious off road riding.  Different springs are a relatively easy fix.  I liked how he explained the balance feeling.  I have been trying for years to come up with the reason these MG's have such a unique feel and I think he got it.   
Personally, I don't do much off road but watching how high the limits seem to be in his expert hands, it's good to know that I should be able to get out of anything I get myself into with my meager abilities. 
Well done.

Agree ,great review. That color combo  sure makes it  a handsome bike! Almost too pretty to beat around off road.
