COVID messed up a planned ride to Austria with the boys....so me and Magnus hit the roads of southern Sweden for a couple of days. Here are just a few random moments.
SENA Momentum Evo Follow Up...is it good?
มุมมอง 6K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Been a couple of months now since getting this new helmet and figured it was time for a follow up. Even did a few days riding through Denmark and Sweden to really put it through it paces. So what's the verdict?
New Mini WindScreen (Niks 900rs Part 13)
มุมมอง 1.5K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Got hold of a cool mini windscreen from the guys over at SW-Motech. Less about the wind, more about the bugs I have to clean out of the nooks and gaps! Hopefully this will help. As always I needed to add my twist and mod it a little but its a sturdy piece and goes perfect with the bike. sw-motech.com/en/products/protection/customizing/4052572052648.htm

Barely Legal Part 4: Finally Street Legal!
มุมมอง 1425 ปีที่แล้ว
He did! He actually went and did it! Magnus got the Yamaha XS1100 a while back with a bunch of modifications....not all of which were road legal. So some time was spent getting her up to scratch to pass the road test...and it passed! Now we just need to wait for some better weather to get out for some good riding.

Brake Fluid Reservoir Swap (Niks Z900rs Part 10)
มุมมอง 1.6K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Been a long time coming but Nik finally gets around to swapping out the stock reservoir brake fluid reservoir on the Z900rs. We have been planning to do this for a while but was waiting for the new bars before we did the swap. Mike drops by to help out and guide us as he has don't his once or twice before. Lots of PRO TIPS!
Barely Legal Part 2: New Muffler sounding good!
มุมมอง 1235 ปีที่แล้ว

    gracias por compartir! Para usted no le parece un trabajo complicado, pero realmente lo es!, empezando porque para una sola persona (sin ayuda) es sumamente difícil. Pero gracias a su video, me ha dado ideas muy interesantes. Una de ellas es, sin quitar el colector original (que reduce bastante el sonido) se puede acoplar una cola final de carbono más vistosa que la original y con un sonido más agradable. incluso usando solo el silencioso final de SC Project

      Hey buddy! Hmmmm so when I wanted to do the swap I talked with the dealer. He assured me that there was no need to mess with the eco as this system was specifically designed for the Z900rs. So far I can’t feel any issues. So find something you like the look and sound of and talk with a dealer to get their perspective. 👍

      You should be fine with the L. It’s just a snug fit to help with noise cancellation. I normally use a Bell. Nice helmet but let’s a lot of wind noise in. So the switch felt ‘dramatic’ at first.

  • @chirash333
    @chirash333 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Mate! i use sena 30k on my BELL modular helmet and there is a lot of wind noise coming specially as you go above 80 kmph. Would you suggest switching to SENA Momentum for the reason of reduced wind sound?

    • @wrenchesbenches8792
      @wrenchesbenches8792 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. I have a BELL and the SENA is hands down much better for noise reduction. I don’t wind the wind from time to time but when trying to listen to a GPS or use comms I would go with the SENA. It’s a snug fit due to the insulation so try it on if you can. It felt a little claustrophobic at first after wearing the BELL for some time, but you get used to it.

    • @wrenchesbenches8792
      @wrenchesbenches8792 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      This was the titanium version for the 900rs. No mods needed to fit the new header pipes but I did have to drill a new hole in the bracket that holds the muffler. However....my bracket was not stock, it’s from R&G Racing. I would assume the SC can fits the bracket but the new header pipes might throw it off a little, I can’t be sure.

      @wrenchesbenches8792 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey! You mean the big box the the original pipes? That’s the catalytic converter or ‘cat’ as most people call it. The short version: its an exhaust emission control device that reduces toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas. So it’s actually a good thing but it has a big impact on sound (many manufacturers also have a dB killer in there) and it can add some weight. This one was pretty ‘hefty’! Haha
