HAHA THE MAN HIMSELF.. THANKS BUD FOR THE 790.. LOVE IT AND HAVE THINGS AHEAD AS YOU KNOW :). As for another bike. I have debated on getting a KTM 500 EXC 6 DAYS at some point to add to my little line up. Depending on how much time I can throw at getting into "RALLY" and "TRAINING".. We shall see mate (PS Already got another remote lock up for more vehicles on the cards but didnt mention the other night) :)

@RicardoYeep
Жыл бұрын
Hey up bud.. Yeah good move if you are doing more off road. The more demanding off road definitely the SAS or SAR is too heavy unless you are chris birch.. however even he as a choice I think he would go lighter then heavier. I considered a 2022 890R or the new 2023 but would be to long a wait. And too expensive for 2nd bike if I wanted to keep the SAS. I guess if I ever sold the 1290 and 790 then I would get a new 890R.. But at the moment they are both awesome bikes fr different reasons and benefits. :)

Ric, I have a SAS which is what brought me here. I also ride off-road too. I have a pro lvl suggestion. There are mirrors called “double take”. They fix to a ram ball. They can be easily adjusted or removed when you hit the trail. They are also robust enough to take a little extra abuse. I can send you a link if you have trouble finding them
@RicardoYeep
Жыл бұрын
Hiy bud, thanks for the info! Appreciate the time to share and recommend. I actually considered the "double take" at one point and still may in future. However I decided on the Rottweiler Performance flip mounts and Arrow mirrors. Which are indeed great and look pretty cool. BUT I doubt they would take as much punishment as the "Double take" which the best thing like you say is that they can be completely removed in seconds when off road. Deffo something I may revisit! Cheers for that. Have a great New years and 2023, Ric

Yeah this is my angle too mate. I would learn more and quicker on a lighter machine. Picking the 1290 up 2 times n 30 mins at the start of a full day off road brings anxiety haha.. it would wear you down in a few hours on mud keep picking it up. To the point you would say fuck it.. I have had enough it no fun now lol... Hence the 790 (which is still not a light bike by any means.. but still 40kg lighter fuelld up.. thats approx 2 20kg bags of ceement equivalent so being used the 1290 this 790 feels like a pit bike haha..

Good job on the trail bike choice, I'd love a 790 Adventure R but I've too many other bikes and too little space to store them. I've 2 bikes in the house and my most expensive is in the shed getting cold (a 1290 SAS). Are we going to see some adventure tours now as well as some off road vids in the future?

I have just signe up to a 3 day roadook rally in Portugal in April. Should be interesting having chose "Rally Class" and be up mixed in with 500 EXC and 450 CRFS and 701s haha..

The 790 or 890 where the middle ground offering better off Road capacity yet was more comfortable than the 690R and more protection from the elements on travel.

Hi Eric. Thanks for the message. Appreiciated! As for the bike questions unfortunately I have no idea regarding bike rentals. To be honest I have never come across one or searched for one. I get the impression they are not as easy to source as possibly on a touristy part of maniland Europe like Spain or Portugal etc. Its a bit crap here in respect of "bike" friendly lifestyle and joys. Theft is through the roof and out of control, Insurance is madness, Every do gooder is trying to close to dow rural "green lanes" So you struggle to find off road paths legally. And there are that many hidden speed cameras around now "average speed type" You find yourself crawling at snail pace at the start of a beautiful "EMPTY" bikers drem country road. To find half hour down towards the end the "other" average speed camera is waiting so you either do it all slow or part up for half hour before passing it :( .... Anyway not meaning to put a damp squid on things.. You will love the NC500 in Scotland I havent done it but have looked into it. Everyone thats done it raves about it. www.northcoast500.com/ Also a ride around Lake Vrynwy and the surrounding areas are lovely (In Wales). You can see a little on this vid of mine where I took mum for a day out testing the pillion seat :) kzitem.info/news/bejne/wHess6ehf32edn4 Im pretty crap on UK stuff as I dont have much interest in UK touring. :) Good luck and have a corker!
