วีดีโอ

Salutare, am fost la MotoHub. Design-ul este subiectiv, mie imi place mai mult GS-ul decat DE800 si Tenere 700 de ex 😄Dar daca vrei mai mult pentru sosea, as zice GS800. Celelalte pe care le-ai enumerat sunt mai capabile offroad decat GS-ul, deci si invers-ul e valabil, daca te intereseaza off-road, probabil GS-ul nu e cea mai buna alegere.

@@motography9737ms de raspuns, 80% stradă și 20% off lejer , străzi de țară etc. m-ar interesa sa aibe cuplu bun și să te scoată din orice situație cu pasager și bagaje. Acest motor este și pe gs 900 și cred ca nu duce lipsă de putere/tracțiune doar ca ajungi cu ceva optionale la 13,14k € ceea ce este cam multișor. La acești bani un Africa sau Suzuki 1050 este mai bun pe hârtie

@@Gaby-jr7gm Asa e sunt de acord, e destul de scump. Ce-mi place mie la f800gs e ca gasesti chestii de confort gen Cruise Control pe care nu le gasesti la alte moto mid-weight in stil ADV, Transalp n-are, Suzuki DE800 n-are, Tiger 850 etc + faptul ca e foarte accesibila inaltimea şeii. Dar daca te duci la o etapa si mai sus, cum ai zis si tu cu Africa twin sau Suzuki 1050, deja se schimba ecuatia, si are multa competite.

@@motography9737singurul lucru în favoarea BMW - lui este prețul la revânzare față de concurenta . Este aproape singura împreuna cu HD care tine prețul sus pe piață

​@@motography9737 mam GS 800 od marca i jeżdżę w górach w terenie i jest Super w teren i na drogę a jeżdżę 32 lata na motocyklach...pozdrawiam 50 latek 😅

Thank you!

Hey, I think its going to be quite alright for someone around 175 👍

Hey, well both bikes felt very nice and premium. That being said, I think for me it's still the f800gs that just made me giggle more, and it felt a bit better in most ways, some are hard to even pinpoint but for example the engine, definitely I like the growl and torque on the f800gs more. The position is also slightly different, even if very similar, but on the f800gs you feel a bit more inside the bike rather than on top of it (which I liked), might be because there's a bigger height difference between the rear and front part of the bike, so you feel like you have a big chunk of the bike in front of you. I think those would be the main two things. Regarding your other questions, I can't say i felt much of vibrations with either, but I didn't get to drive highway speeds, so there might be. Also for heat I did feel some, coming from the BMW engine at some point, worth pointing out indeed, but probably also because it was a scorching hot day and I couldn't ride too fast in the traffic at all. Cheers!

@@motography9737 Thanks man, for the very detailed explanations 👍

Thanks for your comment and I'm happy to hear you're still enjoying it :)

​@motography9737 I rechecked your video and actually have to correct myself.. we have the same windshield length.. sorry!! Ride safe! 🏍

Sunt de acord ca e foarte misto feelingul, iar restul tine de inaltimea ta, daca esti inalt automat n-ai ce sa faci cu ceva mai jos de atat, daca esti mai scund sau la limita, trebuie sa te obisnuiesti putin cu inaltimea, dar se simte foarte bine. Iar cu aspectul sincer am trecut si eu printr-un rollecoaster de emotii si impresii. La inceput nu ma atragea nimic la motocicletele BMW de genul, dar apoi am inceput sa le apreciez mult mai mult, mai ales dupa ce am incercat-o, nu mai zic. Varianta Triple Black arata chiar bestial, parerea mea :)

@@motography9737 fix triple black au pe stoc.. îmi vine că o mănușă. Ajung cu picioarele ferm jos, chiar puțin îndoite. La fel și cu Africa twin, doar ca referință. Am doar 180, dar picioare mai lungi, la 86-87cm inseam. Îți dai seama cum stau pe nakedurile alea mici, "de începători", mai ales cele de sub 650cc. Poate trec de aspect și iau acel 800 gs triple Black

@@mircea5013 Nu cred ca o sa regreti😁

It does look pretty cool, the Akra :)

Thanks!

I haven't felt any heat during my hour with it, and it was a pretty hot day.

Yeahh it's still the same. The hot air from the radiator will hit you. In tiger 1200 they have put out some deflectors to move the wind away from you. There are or will be after market deflectors to move the hot wind away from you from 900s as well.

@@aditya.ishan27 if so,they cant have my money.its too silly to have that kind of issues in a premium bike

I am glad you agree!

Awesome! That's probably a good call because I can still feel lots of wind haha

Many thanks! 🙏

Sweet! Nice to hear you're really putting those kilometers in :)

Thanks a lot! And yes, it's great for certain things, definitely not for everything.

Thanks brother! And the top box is pretty good, i don't think you'll have issues with it if you don't overload it. The manual mentions 4kg / 9lbs for Max weight. And also they say you should stick to 120km/h or 75Mph as top speed while having it installed, but so far so good for me. I have a video on the top case and side bags actually if you're interested.

@@motography9737 great!! ill go take a look thanks!!

Glad you enjoy it!

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks a lot! And yeah man I swear that seat is gonna be the reason why I'm changing the entire bike for 🤣

@@motography9737 nice review sir. here’s what I did to help fix the seat. If you take the seat off, you’ll notice that there is a bracket bolted in with two bolts towards the gas tank that holds the seat up. I went to a dollar store and surprisingly they had longer bolts that fit in perfect. What it is that you want to do is stick a couple washers maybe an inch or so and put in those longer bolts with the washers underneath the bracket.this will help lift the seat up. I also bought an Amazon seat and seat cover. After I put the seat cover on, I stuck a sponge between the seat and the seat cover right up front where your.” taint.” is. It works perfect. I am 63 years old and have been riding since the mid 70s. One thing that you did not mention that should be mentioned is the gas mileage on this little guy. I no longer have range anxiety. It took me 3 gallons to ride to Yosemite from Concord California. I was amazed. It’s the perfect bike if you’re not in a hurry.

@@karlfonner7589 Many thanks for stopping by, and that sounds like a great fix to the seat issue :) No issues with water getting under the seat or anything right? Also I'm glad you're enjoying the bike, ride safe!

Thanks man!

Hi, I'm 170cm.

@@motography9737 thanks. Did you check the low seat ?

@@DimitrisBenakis I haven't, but that would indeed probably be a good fit. I am a bit anxious of comfort with "low" seats in general though.

Awesome! It's a fun bike for sure. Have you decided on the color? Also, what bike are you coming from?

​@@motography9737 I'm coming from a different universe 😂 did only Motocross never really driven on the road with a bike. Coming from a 450 KTM and I'm definitely going for the carnival red as yours in video. I think it's illegally sexy 😄

@@mrchaoslordlol That's so cool! Sweet, I hope you enjoy it :)

standard inline 3 cyls sounds pretty good to be fair, but I believe the major point with triump going T-crank tripple was to help with traction for offroad useage.

@@hafentoffen2 it really is a question of taste. I prefer the rougher T-crank sound thats slightly different from a V twin over the whistling of a inline. But again preferences

It sure is!

Exactly, I think its a very capable machine and surpasses many bikes on the street versatility-wise.

I have tried midsize Kawas, Yamaha, Suzuki. Wouldn’t want them especially not MT09. Good engine, that’s all

Awesome, glad to hear

Thank you, great to hear! I was thinking about the F750 GS too, do you think there are considerable differences between the two?

@@motography9737 Difference is a few cc, everything else is the same! I have a 2021 f750gs te, its awesome, love it. Don't need to lower the suspension just get the lower seat which comfort wise is actually as good as the stock seat, it will give you that missing bit of required confidence back, I know, I am the same height!. Oh and a madstad screen!

@@paulking187 Awesome, thanks for the tips!👌

You have a point. I was mostly concerned to drop their pristine bike😂 But you get used to it pretty quick 👌

Yeah definitely would have to sell the z400 first. One can dream for the day of a garage full of bikes though😄And I have, actually the Versys 650 used to be what I wanted go for as my next bike but it is even taller than this so that's a bit concerning, but for sure a very versatile and capable bike. Maybe I can go sit on one one day.

Da

I'd love to, and I will! It is in plan to go on longer European trips, however I am a bit anxious about the comfort on the z400 for longer rides😂I'll start with smaller ones and work up from there. If not, I'll get another bigger bike and definitely hit the road :) I am actually contemplating some options for a more touring friendly bike as we speak.

Thanks! Yeah they don't look too bad, and don't ruin the look of the bike in my opinion

I totally agree. Usually I don't like them, but these ones are nice. I will look at them in the future, right now I can get by with a backpack.

Thanks a lot! I use Waze, because you can see obstacles on the roads and even police 😁

That exhaust must sound sweet!

Thanks a lot! Glad to be able to share it :)

Cheers mate! Yeah just managed to get the bike out, winter almost over. And hahah you remembered 🤣🤣 it is the same place, but it was probably too cold for the guards to pay attention to me this time 😄. I got used to the new windshield height in the short ride after already, it's not as intrusive as the GoPro shows it (gopro is positioned lower, around my chin). I might experiment a bit with the GoPro positioning to see if I can get it higher. But anywho! Nice to hear you're enjoying Shad luggage. I'll come back with the new stuff when they arrive. Thanks for stopping by :)

Definitely must have upgrades on the Z400. Hope you'll have it for many years to come, cheers!

Bar end mirrors sound like a good idea. For me, the mirror extenders are working pretty well! Definitely an improvement compared to stock.

@@motography9737 I hate having to drop my shoulder to see anything

Awesome! Enjoy the ride 🏍

Peak Design one

Sorry for the late reply. Honestly I wouldn't say its amazing for touring as is, maybe with a custom seat :)
