🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Isle of Mull Wild Camping Weekender

A crazy October 4 day tour up to the Isle of Mull for a bit of wild camping. Taking in Tobermory and a few ferries on our route, we swing back round to Glancoe, the borders area near Moffat then cross the Yorkshire Dales on our way home. Superb!

    Interesting take. Lots of absolutely glowing reviews out there as well. Bad luck buying a bike unsuited to your style and that turned out a lemon as well. Seems KTM and BMW fans are like oil and water. Hope your BMW has served you well.

  • @russg5077
    @russg5077 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Interesting but very subjective complaints. It sounds like you’re used to another manufacturer but expected the KTM to be the same or not too different. Some people just can’t ride or get on with certain marques. KTMs are not for you clearly. I find the ones that don’t like KTMs the most are BMW riders. It’s the same the other way round for me actually. I have had 7 KTMs and 2 BMWs. Both BMWs were dull and had worse reliability than any KTM I’ve had.

    • @thebearfacedbiker

      Yea horses for courses. Dealers slightly aside, I never had any real problems with Triumph or Honda tho… the suspension and dealer support was the final nail in the coffin for me tbh, I wasnt prepared to spend any more of my time on it or them!

    Hey can you tell us your suspension settings for sag? I can’t seem to get mine dialed in, it’s pretty unruly in corners, wallowing about and head shakes at higher speeds. Anything to help, ❤❤

    • @thebearfacedbiker
      @thebearfacedbiker 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I adjust according to the manual - get my wife to measure the sag while I sit on it and adjust to spec. Sounds like you need to increase the pre-load, which is about all you can do on these… I’ve only ever had a bit of wallowing loaded up with suspension set too soft…

      About 5’10 and I found it OK. Tbh if I got another, I would get a low version to get a lower centre of gravity - but with same height seat to keep the peg to butt distance the same.

      @jurepecnik9054 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@thebearfacedbiker the pegs are ok on an XR, but the whole height of the bike is just a bit too much... i understand that it has to do Adventure like ride as well, but lets be honest, who takes a bike like that on a gravel or in the forest? Maybe the next step for BMW is to make a touring version of the S1000R (like a R1250RS with a straight 4 cylinder) with taller screen and integrated pannier holders, like super duke GT or ninja 1000 SX... maybe even shaft drive, so there wouldn't be any chain maintainance required... :D :D :D I'm day dreaming, i know, hahhahahaha xD

    • @thebearfacedbiker
      @thebearfacedbiker 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yea I think they only styled it like that to attract people who wanted a 4 cylinder GS. And it’s very good, just pointlessly high as you say. I reckon the low version XR would be a good compromise - if not a better bike!

    After 4 trips from uk to Norway on 3 different R1200 boxers ( No GS version ) seeing many of your roads and tourist 'must see' I leave for home each time knowing I have again missed so much more that needs adding to a 'next visit list'. Laerdal tunnel and the top route overpass always needs another trip, the ferry to Lote, Fv698 to Solberg Panorama view route is worth the time from Forde and Stryn, thanks for posting and making trip 5 a possibility.

    What do you need to fly a drone in Norway?

    • @thebearfacedbiker
      @thebearfacedbiker 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You need to register with their aviation authority which was easy enough online and gives an operator ID to put on the drone. I think you had to confirm that you have insurance too, then follow their flight restriction zones/maps which are all online. Search on TH-cam - there’s a vid that goes through the Norwegian rules and where you can find the restriction maps and stuff. All pretty straightforward for drone under 250g

    What a stunning video! I have a family connection with Mull and been visiting on a regular basis since before I could walk and talk. I hope to be back there in 2024. I have driven and cycled pretty much all the roads you were on. I was also in Scotland in June, on some of the same roads as you and it was very dry, fantastic to see the rivers so full, most were a mere trickle when I saw them. Lastly Yorkshire. I 'discovered' the county on my way to and from the Lake District in May and again in June heading North. What a county. I am planning a whole week there in 2024. Usha Gap is a fantastic campsite if you are up that way again.
