Awesome, good to hear it worked for another person. Heaps of us have now scored this deal. I find them great I use soft panniers and having that bottom tie off point is fantastic. Enjoy and safe riding

Yep works really well. Just did 1770km off road over 4 days and neither side came loose.

Never - they have all the original sleeve and rubber etc and you can get them nice and tight by hand. Overall on my KLR I haven’t had anything come loose except one peg bolt (after a crash hitting it - think it popped a thread etc)

@ cool thanks for getting back to me. I just picked up a Gen1 Klr and was looking for a good seat mod like this

Nah it’s an AE82 Twincam 16v (4age motor) same as the AE86 - same era and I guess competitor car really - it’s an 87 model.

Ohh awesome. Very cool 👌 i love the magic rubber, ive just sent this vid to my mate who is trying to restore a plastic tank on his older yz

@ yeh I sort of forgot about the magic eraser and then remembered just before I grabbed plastics off bike.

hi mate, yep should be fine. if you private message me an email i can send you the gpx files so you can check them over etc.

Awesome, you have some great bikes. I didn’t ride broadford event - volunteered a bit and then filming really. We really enjoyed the event and I had wanted to join for last 15 years really - just now the timing works. I got back from broadford and by Monday noon I had purchased a bike so I can join in :). I had planned to do up an old TS185 as i have 3 in parts but I’m too big and would wreck it….stumbled across an 85 KLR250 within my tight arse budget so picking it up tonight ready for 2025 events. Catch you at the next one

@@OliReu Awesome. Next season will be a blast. Just picked up a nice ts250 that needs some work but we have time till the next season anyway

Sounds good - thanks for the info.

ps i was a learner until last week and passed my license assement, 😁

Congrats mate, enjoy the bike !

Hey mate still all good - just did a 1200km ride and all fine ready for next trip.

@@OliReu cheers for that.

I’ve also got a 2000~km trip coming up mid November so will have further feedback then

Cheers mate, it works well. I have one strapped to bike permanently which I haven’t had to use yet, then one at home I use for quick chain cleaning / oiling

Yep love them and still working after 1000s km

Ha yes I keep looking at them online and also the price !!!

Cheers mate, been on for a few thousand kms now and all perfect

Beautiful country by the way

Cheers sounds good, since this I just completed a 1200km ride with them (see recent videos) where they performed perfect again.

Hi mate - recent update from last week - Rhinowalk Panniers long term review | 2500km | mainly off-road th-cam.com/video/zwoiGrLJ6dM/w-d-xo.html

Cheers mate, it was really enjoyable. Great spending time with the older guys with the bike and life skills etc. making the vids makes me want to go back and do it all again right now !

yes 100% - it was fun in the rain / mud but would be fantastic and alot easier in the dry - except sand would be worse. The Ingleton Track is one that we feel you just attempt it every trip moving forward regardless of weather and see how you go :)

😅😅😂😂. Makes sense. Would be great if you could share the GPX

@@Skuffy1969 yep it’s shared in the description :)

Thanks for feedback, i have checked over video and screen shot in there shows 30mm ones (must be what i purchased) the error was in the video description i noted 35mm which i have now altered to 30mm - sorry mate, atleast an easy fix cut 5mm off and all done.

@@OliReu no worries my friend I already took my Dremel tool out and shortening them right. up I do appreciate the you good idea

Cheers mate, should get the rest of the videos (maybe 2) up over next week or so. Are you melb based ?

@@OliReu Geelong based actually.

Cheers mate, it’s FourStroke on IOS if android there’s once called drive mode dashboard 2 ppl seem to use

Cheers have updated the video description with the items I purchased

Not sure what you mean? Nothing unplugged the klr is made with 3 sets of 12v wiring present ready. They are supposed to be for 12v usb / plugs Driving lights Heated grips. I tapped into the driving lights wiring for my usb as closest to access etc.

@OliReu the red plug. Was that just extra, or did you have to disconnect it from somthing to use the app ?

@@not_batman3888 red plug is obd2 port for diagnostics. I have since used that plug to plug in a converter to standard obd2 port and a Bluetooth adaptor to phone app to view bike data. There is another video on this aspect I’m fairly sure i made.

@OliReu ok, I just wanted to make sure you weren't unplugging the existing dash.

@@not_batman3888 no that all remains as is. The obd2 just allows you to diagnose - or plug in a setup with Bluetooth like I have to allow data readout on a phone app. I just wanted it to know revs at certain speeds and coolant temp. I maybe check the app once a ride just if I’m curious if coolant temp etc

Hi it’s holding up fine- I’ve full pressure washed bike with it on all fine. As far as sticking out I haven’t hit or bumped it as it doesn’t actually come forward that much really. I think a 7” would be good for viewing but then harder to fit and keep out of your way.

Nah not really, she’s fairly hard to balance and get the klr off the ground for front wheel. For front I think I’d just lay her over or lift skid plate up onto rock or something. Perfect for rear especially quick chain lubes etc

All fine, I ripped one strap clip off as I left it undone and got caught in wheel, I just stole another clip off an old backpack which happened to suit perfect. So they have been fine after 1 year. Will be doing another 4 day trip at end of July so will have further feedback then.

Top clips you wrap around steering stem, I cross them and add a zip tie so they stay there. You just unclip these (2 seconds) and fold bag towards seat and fill then reclip, very easy. It stays held by the rear clips at all times

Yep need to check diff schematic - needs to be the 2024 adventure model schematic / option

Good stuff, enjoy they work really well

Yes it just unclips, but is then held for security with a single bolt that is held captive in the mount and screws into a female thread on the main unit either hand tight for easy removal or add a turn with some pliers so it’s basically safe from opportunistic thieves

To be honest I haven’t checked as just use it for Tacho occasionally and coolant temp. Sorry mate.

I got it from adventureonstore. Great to deal with Aus company. Can also buy off Amazon

Yep it doesn’t work / connect to phone until ignition on

Sounds good mate - feel free to send me a pic sberton@hotmail.com

K, so that’s another improvement on the gen 3 which is good. I haven’t had to access using them yet but atleast it’s a quick tool free job now.

Cheers mate - I don’t use it for the gps function at all really (can and good backup knowing it’s there if needed) I use it to record my route which then allows me to save all trips I’ve done as gpx and organise these within Garmin explore and mainly within Gaia.- I use the iPhone and downloaded maps on Gaia or Garmin explorer then connected to ottocast. I chose the 66i for its SOS as its portable and can then come with me easily on any hikes or camping non Moto stuff but it has the routing and all the topo aspects like the zumo - so yeh it was purchased to be used for multiple purposes and ofcourse I really should have it mounted on me so when flip / crash the SOS function is on me to press

Yep it goes well :)

Cheers mate, yes I’m enjoying the bike - almost time for another rear tyre - pretty sure I’m going to go the failsafe D606
