    Blue camelbak... two dismounts two minutes! I can tell 100% his bike is running tyres at road pressures. Go for at most 50% of road tyre pressures and you'll transform your riding. As low as 12-15 psi is fine. It's amazing how much of a difference it makes. (And take a compressor to reinflate for the road ride home!) Edit: I watched the whole vid. I'm convinced your tyre pressures are not soft enough either! Props for showing the reality of how easy it is to end up in the nettles!

    I did most of these upgrades myself to himmy. The TPMS found they now do solar powered version which is better than having to charge it every week. I got some smaller spot lights and tucked them into the frame so if bike falls over less chance of damaging lights. You may find you get a lot of vibration from the main headlight, I little self adhesive foam around the casing where rim goes will stop that.

    Great effort on the rebuild. I know this is a good few years old now, but do you recall any issues when removing the old steering head bearing races? I'm trying to research the job, and hear a lot about how difficult it is on this bike and you need special tools etc, But I'm struggling to understand why. I've done the job on other bikes before, and whilst not a fun one, its not too difficult

    @JasonFollett 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I've been watching other Himalayan fuel tests, so I'll add them here for you to compare with yours (metric, so you can do the conversion if you like). Tools & Tours: 387km total, 228km main tank, 159km on reserve, 25.8kpl - DNA filter, iridium spark plug, pro-tune Uncle Voodoo: 463km total, 280km main tank, 183km on reserve, 30.6kpl On 2 Feet: 336km total, 204km main tank, 132km on reserve, 22.2kpl - highway speeds @ 105kph (commenter): 582km total, 353km main tank, 229km on reserve, 38.46kpl - 5000km bike @ 80-90kph, 2.6l/100km So there seems to be a considerable variation depending on the bike, the rider, the speed and any modifications (more power burns more fuel?) I guess fuel economy could be a challenge for you and your bike to explore.

    • @JasonFollett
      @JasonFollett 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@r6stu I did work out that the ratio of the main tank to the reserve is 3:2 (approx. two-thirds), so whatever distance you get before it switches to Trip F divide by 3 then multiply by 2 and that's your reserve distance. So if you get 231km or 144mi on the main tank, you get approx. 154km or 96mi on reserve.
