This question has probably been asked before but I haven't found much. Anyway, has anyone built a dual sport out of a M2? Does anyone know what long travel forks that might fit a M2?

I think the underslung exhaust, and underslung shock, kinda keep the tubers in general from being "adventure" bikes. Too many crucial bits being vulnerable.

Kind of cool, actually, though the KTM fenders have to go. The exhaust looks pretty sketchy to me as well.

I wonder how it rides? The geometry is pretty whacked.
