Yes, I got one in Sydney and lovin' it with some Motoz Rallz, dekat headers and can. Ticks all my boxes 😁
That would make it lively! Awesome 👌🏽
great to hear! we are coming down nsw way soon! should link up for a ride ✊🏼
Tuareg is a great bike, i have mine for 1 year and had no problem so far.
glad to hear you are loving it mate! we rated it at the top of all the adventure bikes we tested lasted year!
How many km/mi have you done so far?
@@PatchedBandit 9500km in 13 months, 40% serious offroad
@@brisbanemotorcycles do you have a full rankings list? Would be curious to see where you rated the Africa twin and T7
Hi guys,
It's the UK here...have you ridden a KTM 950 Adv (old bike, I know). How would you compare it?
hey mate! we have not, we rode the Norden 901, ultimately we found this bike to be the lightest most agile and nimble feeling adventure bike we have ever ridden, a few more horsepower would be nice but not essential
TOP bike, but wayyyyyyy over the odds
Super competitive bike that’s for sure
Love this bike! I had no problems single-tracking it and I don't have a ton of off-road experience. It is the most ridable and enjoyable bike I have ever owned in any category.
great job guys ...not many are putting it through its paces like you did I must say I Love mine
they are an awesome bit of kit!
Thanks for the review guys. Awesome job! Still waiting for mine while it is being shipped over to the local dealer. Waiting to get this, has been the longest 4 weeks of my life! What's worse, there's another two weeks at least to wait! 🤣🤣
It’ll be well worth the wait! So much fun to ride
Nice review lads. well done. cant wait to see how it goes against the desert x
thanks! we have a pretty cool idea we are going to try for the desert x review!
Desert x video will be epic!
Braver than i am ...
Few moments in there 😅 all for the content hahaha 👌🏽
Awesome bike, since you are also riding a T700 back to back, a comparison would have been nice
we are waiting until after we have done the desert x review and then planning one big final shootout at the end of the year! T7, ktm 890, Norden, Tuareg, desert x …. multiple riders of varying abilities. stay tuned to catch it!
Good video guys. Waiting to hear from someone on how it does with a pillion on road. Need to get the wifey on rides with me.
I’ll have to grab it and take if for a spin with the missus and let you know mate 👌🏽
I have one and it does fine with a pillion. Still plenty of power for the highway
Great episode, bike looks the business.
Look forward to your next vid.
Thanks mate! Super fun bike
thanks mate!
Really nice bike. But terrible background track on this video because you can only here the „ click, click“ which is annoying.
Awesome Video guys! I'm Loving my Tuareg as well.
It’s definitely one of the best adventure bikes!
you can just buy an enduro or a mx,if dont go to road and touring.why to buy this bike?
Well done lads, great review. Ya's go alright too ✊️✊️✊️
Hmmm might be time to trade in the BIG Beamer 🤔 😊
you won’t regret it!! if you are in Brisbane call the Windsor dealership and take this one out for a spin
Hi,before you want to ride a bike,please read the user manual,do the proper settings (select the appropriate ride mode,the ABS,the level of TC) .Tuareg is very customizable,there is no point to ride offroad in urban mode,par exemple.
we played around with all the different settings and ended up on the enduro map with all electronic aids switched off :)
@@brisbanemotorcycles Great choice!
good review,but at 24k there area lot of other adventure bikes out there ,the desert x is the same money!! ,,also riding it like a 250 mx bike is not what most owners will do,
i paied 11k
We will do a direct comparison to the Desert x when we get our hands on one. It will be interesting to see how it shapes up. For the price point this is easily one of the best bikes I’ve ridden and you’d be surprised how easy it is to jump and flick around. Super fun and capable bike for the price. Super excited to compare it to the Desert X and see how it stacks up!
true - a lot of other adventure bikes need a good amount spent on suspension, the electronic package is on par with the other European competitors. would be cool to see Yamaha do a gen 2 T7 and try one up the euro players! i think when you are getting close to 20k people are happy to pay a bit more if they see the value in the added benefits
I just come back from Windsor and Mitch showed me this model.
All the things that the CRF450L I bought didn't have!
There are a few things to add though.
This bike comes stock with KYB single side cartridge forks & shock. Be keen to see one fitted with the Ohlins FKA115 & AP661 kit.
There's no chain guide fitted on the swingarm, but there's a pair of mounting holes.
Michelin Tracker knobby tyres are rated for the speed that the bike is capable of and so much better off-road.
XC Gear make a polymer mount for the handlebars for soaking up the vibrations.
Finally an Akro pipe and slip-on.
I couldn't find the accessories list, but I guess a call to B&B Off Road will fix some of that. No-one mentions the service intervals either.
Hey Michael! cool to hear you went into the store! you should have taken it for a spin!! we definitely want to get the Akro exhaust and better tyres. In regards to the suspension the KYB was actually really good! I’m sure if we spent some time setting it up (spring rates valving ect) the stock units would be capable of a lot! agree in regards to the other bits and bobs. we will chip away at it 🍻
@@brisbanemotorcycles I just found the world owner's group. Good resource for stuff.
Some mention an issue with the ignition stutter working between the programs. Just the sort of thing that gets annoying in time..
There's also reports of a coolant leak around the water pump.
H&E make guards and racks to suit.
First oil change is at 1000 km, then it's 10,000km oil change intervals, so sayeth my owners manual. I plan on doing 3000-4000km oil changes
I'm surprised it didn't break down 🤣🤣
It handled it like a champ 😂
I met a guy from Illinois at a hotel in Alberta who had ridden his all over, Alaska, moab, etc. He had over 40,000 miles on it
@@petergarratt9645
It must have been a Honda with Aprilia badges stuck on the tank..🤣🤣
@@agro6821 Nah, if it was a honda they would of said the only changes are bold new graphics and other than that it's the same model from 10 years ago! LOL!!!
