Hi, I prefer the look of the low exhaust over the high one, that is the only reason. The high one might be a better solution, I just put on my Touratech softbags when I go out for offroad riding so they will take the hit when I drop the bike. The wings exhaust is not a very loud exhaust in my opinion, I don't think it is much louder as the stock one, it just sounds better.

@@robmotorcycletravels I get it 👍Again, thanks a lot, and very helpful 👍

@@makisbitis6985 Thanks for your feedback, I wish you already a happy 2025!

@@FooBar-j4w I love my Tenere 700, but I was glad to do this one on my light GasGas 700 😀

Nice video! Thanks for sharing 😊

@@Arteus73 thanks !

@@moneymakeredge1 Hi, it was a DJI Neo, but I would not recommend it for that as it can only follow you up to 20 km /h

@@robmotorcycletravels Thanks for reply...

Het is alweer even geleden…maar ik denk dat dit Landgoed Mariahoeve was in Papenvoort

@@murlyn2 Thanks for your feedback !

@@sergioviegas3407 I have driven a few times with a passenger and never experienced a problem with this exhaust.

@@robmotorcycletravels thanks for the feedback 👌🏼

Thank you and thanks for watching !

@@niksn022 My Gopro is mounted on the left mirror. Settings for the camera are 4k/ 25 fps, other settings standard.

@@robmotorcycletravels thanks 👍

no, not with me.

@@themurrays2266 you can’t go really wrong for this amount. I still have them on my bike and will only replace them if I break them. One thing that might be good to know is that the standard bolts for mounting them will rust quickly. If you treat them with some WD40 or replace them from the beginning you are good to go.

@@robmotorcycletravels Thank you Rob, I appreciate the response, and good to know on the bolts, I'll probably replace these with Stainless ones. Cheers!

I don’t think there is a difference in headlight unit for normal Tenere and World Raid model ?

Hi, good question 😀. I never used it with a passenger but I don’t think it will be a lot different. The seat is more comfortable than the standard model on the T7, but also not for rides that will last all day.

the same. You will only see left & right 😀

Thanks, I have done that modification as well and it is a BIG improvement especially when you use a rear rack like I have. You live in a great and beautiful country by the way 😀

@@robmotorcycletravels Thank you so much, Rob! Appreciate your knowhow and solution-finding! Have a great season 2024 bro! Guenther

Hi, I’m 2 meter tall, so around 6’7 ft. Thanks for watching.

I ride the Rally Seat from Yamaha and i Can ride 8 hours plus on that. I was however considering the Touratech standard to Get 2 cm lower which hopefully would kick the air over my helmet. I use the puig touring screen but with the rally Seat it still hit the top of my helmet which sucks on long fast rides. Else i love the rally seat

Hi, thanks for your comment. Yamaha should have mounted the exhaust with just 2 bolts on the frame just like the new BMW F900 GS for example. Or same construction like the Desert X, where the passenger step will take the first hit when you drop the bike. I don’t know of any other manufacturer who mounted it directly to the subframe. It just doesn’t make sense how Yamaha did this on the T7. I hope there will be a new T7 or T9 in the future where they will change these little things to make the bike even better. Still love my T7 after more than 2 years of ownership, can’t think of any other bike that would fit me better.

@@robmotorcycletravels yes, this makes sense i agree. I'm still waiting for my T7 to come. And now hesitating between high exhaust which would eliminate this problem at all, or standard position because I like the looks of it better. This is definitely a flaw in the design along with shaky dashboard and headlight and soft rear brake. So t7 is not flawless by any means, but all this is fixable.

@@678wait The dashboard is not that shaky I think but can be easy solved with an aftermarket part for around 20-30 euro. However, it could be manufactured on purpose like this by Yamaha so the dashboard can move along during offroad riding and won’t damage. Try it first I would say, I don’t see it really as a problem. The brakes on offroad orientated bikes are softer than on road bikes, that is correct. You will get used to that after some time riding the bike. For the exhaust you could buy a high exhaust, but you also have to change turn signals. It’s a good solution, but I agree with you that it looks better with the normal exhaust on the side. I put my soft bags on the side and stuff them with some clothes when I go out for offroad trips, that has worked well so far. You could also mount a pannier rack, SW motech has a detachable one, and than that will take the hit when you drop the bike.

@@robmotorcycletravels thanks for the advise. I will check before how it is before installing the bracket. I bought aluminum racks for soft luggage, they are very light and compact, look good on bike compared to regular luggage racks

Hi again, the mirrors are a little bit smaller then the original mirrors the T7 comes with, but that is not a noticeable difference. you can install them in any position you like and find the best way they work for you. One of the big advantages is that you will not break them when you drop your bike.

Hi, I’m 2 meter tall (6,7 ft) so wind and wind noise is something I have accepeted and I can live with it. It’s just wind, I don’t experience wind buffeting. I did not notice a real difference with the lower screen vs the standard screen, I have the wind full in my face with both screens. It all depends on how tall you are I think, a friend of mine has a T7 as well and installed the Puig higher screen and he has no wind issues at all. (He is 1.75.meter tall (5,9 ft)

Thanks. This was end of July and first week of August….and we had lots of rain 😀

Hi, thanks for watching. I’m sorry to dissapoint you, but the ferry from Norway (from NL) went bankrupt last year…so you still have to go to DK I think. Our trip was almost 2 weeks and we did drive around 1.500 km I think. Not so much as I was still recovering from a broken collar bone 2 months earlier.

Hi, the mirrors are flat. I have them on my bike since september 2023 and no problems so far. The only negative thing I cam think of is that the screws needed to mount on your handlebar get rust on it very quickly. If you replace these, the problem is solved easily. I still like and use these mirrors on my bike, I would buy them again if I would break them. For the money, it is an absolute bargain in my opinion.

@@robmotorcycletravels thank a lot for your feedback!! Best regards

It is not a campsite, it was behind the garage were we were waiting for the motorcycle to be repaired 😀

that is how it looks on youtube…in fact 50% of this trip was with rain coming down for 24 hours a day and even 4 days on a row…I just did not film during these days, as the only thing you would see is raindrops on the screen.

Thank you !

Fully agree with you, they look way better than the standard mirrors and they work fine. If I break them one day, I would buy the same ones again.

@@robmotorcycletravelsglad to hear the good words. i was on the fence about them but i hate the stock ones.

@@pastrie42 Thanks, I still have them on my bike and would buy them again if ever needed

Hello there, I understand your problem as I had the same issue. But the solution is very simple, you have to fold the open end a little bit back and stitch it to each other. Then you create a loop and it is easy to mount it on the T7..or any other bike. It is the same way as the rockstraps are constructed. If it would help you I can send you a picture tomorrow. Thx, Robbert

@@robmotorcycletravels Thanks for your quick reply. Very helpful. Yeah, that's what I finally concluded. Just fold them back and stitch them into loops like the straps at the rear. Cheers!

Thanks for watching. I don’t see a tunnel in this part of the video….

leuk om te horen. de TET route is erg mooi waar jij woont, maar in het Noorden en het zuiden ook overigens. De T7 is daar prima geschikt voor 😀

Yes, the TET routes are official roads and in Switzerland it is about 99,9% normal road. Thanks for watching !

teşekkürler

glad you liked it. We had more than our fair share of rain, but these days got lost during editing 😀 Thanks for watching.

Hehe, Yes, that is correct ! But one of the reasons I bought the T7, as it is a great bike for taller people like me :)

Hoi, leuk om te lezen, ik heb de video zelf inmiddels ook meerdere keren bekeken 😀 De Held bagagerol is volledig waterdicht gebleken…en dat heb je ook echt wel nodig in Noorwegen. Wat je niet ziet in de video is regen, maar dat was er ook in overvloed, dus goede kleding is wel aan te raden. Wij hadden alleen de boot naar Noorwegen gereserveerd en verder helemaal niets. We hebben 1x in een hotel overnacht en 3 x op een camping. De rest gewoon wild kamperen, dan heb je de mooiste locaties voor het uitkiezen. Reserveren lijkt me ook niet nodig, die paar campings waar we geweest zijn hadden nog genoeg plek iedere keer. Noorwegen op de motor is fantastisch, de wegen zijn goed en de natuur is prachtig. En dat beleef je met een motor uiteraard veel meer dan met een auto. Ik zou het zo weer doen in ieder geval !

@@robmotorcycletravels Dank je wel Rob voor je reactie! 👌Wie weet zien we elkaar nog eens in Eemshaven 🙂

You should definitely go there if you can, it’s an amazing country. I can’t share our route with you unfortunately…as we had no route planned. We just drove up north from Kristiansand where we left the ferry. However I can advise you to drive to the mountain area around Geiranger and Jothunheimen. And there are many national parks as well and they will give you a fantastic ride through the mountains. You can’t go wrong in Norway really, it is nice everywhere. Thanks for watching.

@@robmotorcycletravels Thank you! I looked through your comments on other threads and saw it was not planned. I'm doing it on a Z1000 so not all the routes will be doable! We're getting the ferry to Oslo and will plan our route from there. Thank you

thanks for your reply, sounds like an interesting option. Easy to install these side release buckles ?

@@robmotorcycletravels much easier than joining center straps. Just put buckles on both strap ends and it is done. But look for buckles which do not require a closed loop on strap so You can adjust both sides. No sewing or cutting.

thanks for watching, let me know when you have found the perfect solution 😀

it sure is. Thanks for watching!

Thanks, I’m not from Norway, so I don’t know. But my exhaust is legal and hardly didn’t see police.

thanks for your comment. Let me know if you find an easier way to mount then.

thanks for your beautiful comment 😀

Thanks, I guess Yamaha is well aware of the problem. The one thing they could / should have changed ,without changing the design of the bike, is just don’t mount the exhaust hanger fixed to the frame. The wings looks quite nice on the T7 😀

Thanks for watching. and I wish you already a lot of fun with your future T7 😀

@@robmotorcycletravels thank you, great video. Keep up the great work!
