Weight is too high for what exactly? This pig is basically either a very overweight dirt bike or a very under powered adv bike .......

@@Adventure_Ready_Life They say that when they don't have the skills to ride the bike

First off i don't believe in man made religions adjusted and altered over the years to fit the current rulers so i'm gonna have to figure out the potential fire danger without the guy in the dress and beard etc .... I do carry a fire extinguisher in all my vehicles as everyone really should (mmmm do you carry one?) Im also not sure why everyone thinks a tiny little controlled butane burner is going to jump out of line and cause a raging vehicle fire but it seems many feel this way? I suggest those people stop camping, never stay or cook anything in any RV, and don't own any mobile homes in the future. Thanks for stopping by ........

Weed.. and some other stuff we can't talk about....

My coffee cup holder, my butler and some grey poupon for now........ hahaha

@@PA-Tammy Mainly just dirty underwear from all the puckering that takes place when this thing hits choppy sections off-raod at hight speed on the crappy (no pun intended) stock suspension!!

@@Adventure_Ready_Life Tractive Suspension can fix that. I did the 25mm+ on both ends and it's a new bike.

@@rosarioroberto5823 I recently came off a 2016 ktm 690 enduro so compared to that bike the T7 has barely any if any handle bar vibration that I’ve noticed. I plan to run a slightly higher bar bend like a CR high motocross type bend handle bar just due to personal bend preferences from past years of motocross racing but no plan for higher bar risers at this time etc. The motor puts off very little heat to the rider, I was actually trying to warm up my gloves/hands while riding the other day by placing them near the motor and was wishing that thing would give off more heat actually! 🤣

​@@Adventure_Ready_Lifethank you for the quick response. I was just watching another TH-cam videos and the 2024 Yamaha tenere 700 has an with the clutch. Are you having any clutch issues, since you have so much experience

@@rosarioroberto5823 the clutch operates as expected, no issues, occasionally it might feel like the throw or length of the clutch grab is a little short once the bike is warmed up but nothing wildly unusual compared to other bikes I’ve owned over the years.

@@thomasreynolds1530 I was actually not expecting all the hateful comments on this one, and found it especially funny that people immediately go to hurling insults about my bike choices and imaginary bike set ups they fantasize that ride or attacking my riding abilities which they clearly have no actual information on, only due to me having an opinion they don’t agree with about my own bike … 🤣 This society is getting pretty sad these days, with weak mind syndrome taking over the masses. Hopefully some people received some benefit out of the information on this video ….. I’m definitely not here to try to get monetized like half the fake “influencers” or try to add members to my inner circle. I’m just sharing experiences ….

Thanks! I love this set up …

@@michaelp9759 I like the bike, but some of the parts are as expected pretty low quality to make that price point ….

@@Adventure_Ready_Life I posted my comment before I actually watched your video, seemed a little clickbaity, however, it, very well-made. Your assessment is very practical and consisted of things the average novice rider would have to endure thousands of miles of riding to ascertain I love the bike, but have only sat on one in the dealership, your video certainly gives you insight as to what you will expect in ownership

@@michaelp9759 thanks, it’s an awesome platform, but some will expect more right at first purchase due to the high praise so many have given this bike. I had pretty good reliable feedback on this one before I purchased and so far it’s pretty inline with what I expected and compared to other adv bikes I should be in a comfortable financial investment level after modifying the tenere to my riding style. I think most will be pretty satisfied with the T7 ……

@@holdfast4588 mine should fit pretty good figure you have at least that gap for the ramp storage on the haul master carrier ….

@@holdfast4588 yeah i love weldtec parts but damn they are pricey!! I had a metal old school diesel Jerry can I was gonna use but the roti pax although pricey would offer good fuel for the motor for sure ….

That roof rack is the Defender from smitybilt off 4 wheel parts website, its the largest one, comes in sections so you can run it shorter for the standard van and longer for the extended body vans if you choose, i have it on this standard van in full length. It's a decent rack for the price and the least expensive roof rack for vans new at $1600 aprox ........

@@Adventure_Ready_Life i couldn’t find that exact same roof rack. They’re probably out of stock

@@catu6266 a lot of times they have this same rack with the different mounting hardware that actually requires you to drill into the roof of the vehicle…. Same rack but different mounting, the gutter mount style like the one I have sells out occasionally since it’s the least expensive option for vans, excursions etc

@@Chubbydippin I had a 100watt renogy solar panel set up temporarily on my other van to charge this same battery and plan to transfer it over to this set up. Right now I just charge it off the 12volt plug when driving, if I stay stationary and in the shade during the day time the battery can keep my fridge running for 4 days no problem. The heat drastically effects the battery bank, in the 90’s temps I was getting maybe 48 hours of battery life if stationary comparably….

@@KeywordManagement thanks! I love this set up!

@@rcridefast7395 I guess it depends on what dirt bike, but yeah the $10k price point fkr an adv bike is great for the market …

@@rcridefast7395 I expected exactly what I got! If you listen closely I mention right off the bat how much I love this bike, I’m only pointing out the parts that are low quality (SUCK) to hit the $10k build for market that Yamaha accomplished. It’s not a video about how bamboozeld I was while purchasing this off the showroom floor only to be utterly surprised after I rode it home that it had some cheap parts on it ….. beginner rides will love this thing in stock trim, advanced riders will love it however immediately start modifying it to suit their needs like every bike they have ever owned regardless of purchase price … Thanks for stopping by ….. ride safe

@@andyk9685 boohoo here’s another perfect example on display of a man openly admitting he got his poor little feelings hurt by another man’s opinion on a product he paid for with his own money and felt like sharing his own opinion …. Cup holder, ashtray, speakers, not sure what types of motorcycles you’ve been riding to Starbucks … but rifle holder, now you’re talking!!

@@Adventure_Ready_Life You didn't understand anything, and you had a chance. You see, offended little man, I'm a bit older than you and coming out here with texts about Starbucks is pathetic (why shitty Starbucks?). My life experience allows me to look at many things from a slightly different perspective. So I'll explain it quite simply, when you spend 10,000 on a motorbike, don't fucking expect solutions like you would spend 20,000. I wasn't attacking you, I just responded to your complaining like a poor grasshopper. I hope I didn't "offend" you, because I don't care.

@@kretz206 yeah I’m most likely gonna go with the acerbis oversized tank, stressing over fuel range is never fun …. and pushing one of these bikes down the road gets heavy! 😂

@@Adventure_Ready_Life have you see the T700 in Australia? 48 Liters tank and The waight is not to bad becuse it's wery low. 18 liter is under cylinder level and 30 liter is under the normal tanklevel. After 1000 km he still had 10 liters left..😂

@@kretz206 haven’t seen that design, it would be great to get that weight lower than the acerbis or stock tank for sure!!

The T7 sounds really healthy with some lighter weight aftermarket exhaust ......

Keeping it very simple! Plus some garlic butter .....

Thanks ...... So far so good! Yeah i've had this bed set up in all 3 of our vans so its nice to have a basic slide in slide out bed/storage system for now. I plan to do a bit more permanent set up on the next version of this however still want to be able to disassemble fairly easily to adjust, or bring van to cargo or passenger mode when desired etc....

@@Adventure_Ready_Life It's working for you so that's the main thing, I like the idea of being able to switch it out quick when needed. Cheers!

@@Freeontheland2030 heck yeah, I always like the modular idea on any vehicle etc ….

I don't disagree, all bikes do have some parts that "suck" on them stock ......

Not in Europe. Only in America. Why we can’t get the Tenere Extreme or the World Raid? It’s ridiculous. Worse, it’s wasteful. I’m supposed to buy a Tenere and then replace a bunch of parts. What do I do with the brand new parts I just replaced. 🤷 It’s really lame. We should have the SAME purchasing options in the US !! 🤬

I agree with the guy who made this video voicing his own opinion of a price point bike he purchased with his own money, and can say whatever the hell he wants about it....... I also think you felt very empowered when you chose to use CAPITAL LETTERS in your wanna be keyboard tough comments. I'mw curious how does it feel to to be so weak and pathetic that you get your feeling effected by a complete stranger with a different opinion than you have? DO TELL US WHERE THE MEAN PERSONS OPINION HURT YOU LITTLE FELLA ....... Haha what a weak society you troll through buddy, tell your mom I said hi, see if she wants to go for a ride sometime ...

@@Adventure_Ready_Life I was just voicing my opinion, sir. I give you the right to do the same. His review was not good, at all, in my opinion. How weak do you have to be to let my opinion affect you?

@@colecarrabello3504 your opinion was a direct insult to another human, not a motorcycle criticism.

Thanks, I'm loving this set up, and although its got a few dollars invested into the build it saves me a ton money on undesired hotels or rent and i get to change my scenery anytime.....

Thanks, i love this big blue beats of a van and the moped hanging off the back! This van is running the 6.0 turbo diesel motor which most people mistakingly hate due to the trouble it gave so many ford F-series truck and excursion owners when Ford tried to boost too much horse power out of these causing massive failures, luckily the vans and ambulances did not suffer this same fait and you will find 6.0 ford vans with 250k plus miles still cranking on original motors. The lift is a Action Van Suspension 6 onch lift in two wheel drive trim with and added limited slio rear locker, so still vulnerable to getting stuck but does pretty decent in this set up and much less expensive than going full 4x4 conversion. Thanks for stopping by, ill check out your channel....

@@crittgolden Thanks, we really enjoy this van, the diesel power and sound of the motor, the basic lift helping us get into nastier areas to explore, and camping out if a van is a great set up in my experience…

@@pinnacleroofing9841 only 2 hours of Hwy mileage this far, doing 2 more hours Friday evening, and I will do a first impressions and any obvious immediate set backs I see type video this Sunday. I’ll include a link if I can figure it out or pull it up on my laptop for reference….

@@LOMROB I was pretty much set on buying the tenere 700, coming off my favorite bike the ktm 690 Enduro I came into some unexpected health issues causing neuropathy in my legs and more so in my hands and sometimes developing complete numbness while riding, so the ktm 690 even though my favorite adv/dual sport beast mode trail terrorizer I needed something more tame to control myself and riding style. The bigger liter adv bikes would be amazing for slab but I still wanted a dirt bike feel and off-road capabilities without too much compromise. Adv bike wise I’ve owned, ktm 690, bmw 800gs, bmw 800gsa, ktm 1290, older days drz 400, and worked for and ridden bmw GSA 1200’s and triumphs etc. Most of my life I raced motocross in southern California and ran dual sports in San Bernardino mtns so I have that racer in my blood still just health ailments slowing my roll a bit these days ….

Thank you for response and information. I intend to get into adv style riding. This info. Was very helpful. Current Harley rider and I used to ride motocross.

@@LOMROB if it weren’t for unexpected health issues I’d probably be running my ktm 690 enduro still fkr trails and aggressive off road and possibly a Honda Africa twin for the larger displacement motor and still Japanese reliability for the motocamping and commuting stuff. For now it’s the tenere for most everything and building a YZ 250 two stroke for short aggressive off-road riding days until my hands can’t take any more 😂

@@LOMROB thanks! For reference this is up north of payson, AZ off the Mogollon Rim, it’s a section of the AZBDR route leading towards Lake Mart south of Flagstaff…

@@truejoyavery 😂 yeah those cat converter thieves are fricken everywhere these days I beat them to it, and now I should sell the original cat to someone in need in California ….

@@Adventure_Ready_Life Haha yeah good idea. Yeah sucks to live in California if you're an automotive enthusiast. I learned that when I lived in Redding

@@truejoyavery yep it’s night and day different up here in northern AZ no lame vehicle restrictions for the most part …..

@@Adventure_Ready_Life Fantastic! Same here in AL

@@awktik7074 exhaust tip already changed to a bronze shade after 2 hours of Hwy riding, turn signal no signs of meltage yet ….

@@TheOffroadCamper yeah I definitely agree with you. This lifted 2 wheel drive van with a rear locker gas gotten us into and out of a lot of pretty gnarly stuff, we’ve been stuck twice, and just attached the tow rope to another lifted two wheel drive van to yank us out. I have a Move Embark diy (weld it yourself) bumper I’ll be building soon and throwing a winch on it for self recovery needs. I feel it’s hard to beat a van for space and comfort and i enjoy the reactions we get having a different and less popular lifted vehicle sometimes …

@@erickirn622 I used to carry my 2023 bmw gs 800 off the back of my KLIM company van with this same brand receiver hauler, it was pretty sketchy though! I think this haul master hauler from harbor freight is rated at 600 pounds

@@erickirn622 Tenere 700 is right around 450 pounds, I’m slowly reducing its weight swapping out parts , but she will always be a hefty gal ….

@@AdventureTomek yeah I’ve only got 2 hours of Hwy riding on mine so far, but I think the pipe and silencer look and sound great and the price is awesome!!

@@holdfast4588 I’ll try to capture some of the magic this week! I’ve been cooking at the local park then heading to the woods, and they got a little public skate park there, might have to throw a useless wooden toy on the Adventure Van set up ….

Thanks! This thing is a fun adventure wagon for sure!!

@@IntoTheMystery13 the motor is a little mellow on the roads but it sneaks up on you and suddenly your ripping 95 mph, and yes it’s a brea usable power and for the off-road stuff, very track able and user friendly so far ….

@@OmegaGreedAK47 only have about 1300 miles on my T7 so far but I’m loving it! Of course, I’m already burning up my credit cards buying shiny stuff for it online in the wee hours of the morning! 🤣

@@sebastianslife91 parking the van for couple days, and heading out on the adv bike ….. I love this set up ….

@@holdfast4588 ordering a front receiver hitch for the Kona Process to tag along and some big ass auxiliary lights and then this thing is ready for a healthy dose of civil unrest ….

@@holdfast4588 I’m pretty impressed but I’m thinking two extra square tubes with extra receiver supports coming off the current receiver bar could be the way to go!
