I am thoroughly enjoying all of your adventures. Even the bits that are exhausting build memories that are far richer than anything you can experience sitting in front of a keyboard. Thank you for sharing! :-)
Thank you :-) Yeah, it all builds up towards better enjoying your next adventure, and what signal from your body you should listen to. For me, its learning by doing, and repeat :-P You are welcome, nice of you to comment. Take care mate :-)
Thanks for sharing your continued adventure Thomas! Stunning views and wise to check out technical parts of trail and make a strategi to attack them! 👍🏻💪🏻
Yeah, I saw a clip from that exact spot one week earlier where a girl dived head først down in the river. It looks easy enough, but there are som rocks there that your front wheel will slip on and get stuck between. With that in mind, I always check technical parts when im alone :-P
@@Braapncamp I dint know her, I just saw a video in a facebook page (OTC) I think se was fine, but it looked crazy. And just thinking about drowning my bike alone on the trail, with no cellular coverage... I better be wise :-P
Riding through those forests for hour after hour would be tough. Mountain roads not so bad. At least you have a view. Waiting for you to get the rear wheel sliding out on the gravel.
What great videos you make Thomas! I have watched all your videos and received many good tips and inspiration thank you. We are some friends who will drive TET Norway in the summer -21 We will stay a couple of days in Grimsbu and drive around the area. and next year maybe we will come up to Bukkerittet. Drive safe / Jonas
Thank you mate 🤩 really glad to hear you like my content. TET Norway are truly magical. So many nice spots! Not the most technical but alot of good scenic gravel roads. Grimsbu is the perfect place to enjoy some really nice gravel! If you like i can share with you a couple of the earlier bukkerittet routes 👍🏻🔥
azdesertdog yeah, some days i just got really bummed out! The best medicin when traveling far, just stop... make camp and rest til the next day! Dont know why it is like that? Maybe just tierd ? Thank you mate 😊
Thomas, I am new to your channel, so catching up! I am looking forward to riding in your fantastic country next year, it’s been on my biking bucket list for too long. Keep the great vids coming its much appreciated. Cheers, Steve
Hello Steve :-) thank you, and glad you like the video :-) Hope to show how beautiful Norway is away from the the regular tourist places. Norway is an incredible country on two wheels.
@@tshansen I want to ride the TET Norway next year. June / July or Sept? What’s the best time? Tourists/ Mosquitos … and is it allowed to camp wild for one night?
@@thomkru6328 well, in september it can be really cold at night, but no mosquitos🙈 june is warm but a lot of mosquitos 😜 yes wildcamping is allowed here 🔥
Stunning scenery. Not so sure about your 'sex face' at the beginning though 😂. I was camping last weekend and it was also cold at night so I can appreciate how hard it is to ride all day and camp at night. Maybe throw in a night in a hotel to warm up etc? Keep up the good work and I would love to see a review on your 790 at the end with your opinion of the bike as an 'allrounder'. It is currently top of my list to replace my GS1200 Rallye in a few years time.
Haha, that was more like my heavy relief face :-P but I see where you are going. Keep warm in the tent is quite easy, its more like the places you just can't piss wherever you like. Thx for the comment... my plan is to make a little review of the bike at the end of the season. Show what mods, luggage options and extra stuff I have added, and what I think makes this this bike so brilliant :-) Cheers
Hi Thomas, great series😉👍🏻 I have a question for you about the 790R and was wondering if you could help me. Mine makes a chattering sound from the frontforks when I come to a stop on an uneven surface. It sounds like something is loose. I cant find anything loose, so I was wondering if other 790R’s make that same noise. Just want to make sure nothing is wrong with my bike😄 Does yours make the same noise?
Thank you :-D I have nothing as you describe, but I have heard that some have had trouble with the front bearing. When I turned my front wheel around last week (to prevent cupping) I saw alot of rusty/dirty water coming out from where the front axel should be. So you may want to check that your bearing is still alright. I know that KTM has had some issue with this in the past. Like they put it in without proper grease.
See on the adv forum you now have the same problem with the front brake. I found it was the brakes and not the forks that cause that sound. I’m having more problems with the front brake now: sometimes the lever comes much further back than other times. Maybe there is air in the system. Bike is going to the shop in the beginning of october.
Hello Thomas, I love your videos. So much so that I have decided to try getting on s bike again, after 60 years without riding. The only thing I would add or like to see in your videos, is some info on where you are, several times per video. It also seems you are staying safely away from single track trails (stier). Is that on purpose. I am thinking about getting a Husky 701LR for the TET. What do you think and are you happy with the KTM?
Wow.... thank you Steinar. Make sure to refresh some riding techniques before you embark on bigger adventures 😆 I have tried to add more info about where i am in my lates videos. If you take a look at my Out Wildcamping series, you will see mych more road and place information there. But, gret input and solid advise for mye future videos. Riding on trails (stier) is mostly illegal in Norway, so i try to avoid illegal driving, at least film illegal driving. I don't want to encourage that kind of driving, or give a impression that it is legal here in Norway 😊The husky 701LR are great for the TET. For me (owned the 690) it was a not a good option for longer trips and longer adventures, so i had to go up one size. Because of my type of riding, i feel much more at home on the 790. I absolutely love that bike 👏🏻 Cheers
Thanks for the good advice. I will for sure get som training. Do you use the different traction control modes or could you have used a Tenere 700, for example?
You will have no problem with the T7, it is a great bike! Traction controll is only a tool that can help you in some situations. I feel like traction control makes me sloppy and do the most usage when i did not plan ahead! I use the different traction control modes alot when it is slippery! But you manage without 👏🏻🔥
Hello dixon🔥👏🏻 i use both, epidemic and artlist... most to see wich one is better! This far i think epidemic is most value, with nice SFX, but artlist have way better tunes/music
Thomas, sorry if this has been asked before but what Sat Nav bracket are you using? You are a very good ambassador for your country and I am sure many (including myself) will visit Norway off the back of your videos.
Thank you David :-D Glad to show that Norway has much more than the regular turist places to offer. I use the original plate that is on the bike, ad a ram ball and use the smal clamp that comes in the pack with the Garmin 396.. I have a video of how I mount it. th-cam.com/video/2KwpR297h74/w-d-xo.html
hello, i have a question about your adv boots. do they shift comfterbly while seated on the bike? i bought alpine stars mx boots to ride on my crf250l and soon an added 790 r. but with those boots its a real struggle to shift while seated and they are zero percent waterproof. my fault for doing little to no reasearch ofcourse. and are they also comfortable to do some walks with (when i get to some beautifull place to take a small stroll around the nature) Thanks in advance :)
Hello Robbie... My ADV boots sjift comfterbly when seated. They are a little bit stiff when they are brand new, but they are a great mix of comfort and stiff enough for riding (in my opinion) They are GoreTex, so waterproof and surprisingly good to walk in. They can be a tight fith if you have a wide foot.
Hey Bruker du TET appen og hvilke gps app linker sammen med kartene deres? Imponerende flotte veier å natur i dette landet.... Om du vil ha tilbakemelding på filmene dine kan eg godt klare meg med bare motorlyd og vind.... Nydelige bilder...
Toby 750 hallaien :-) tet appen er ikke tilgjengelig på iOS enda, men blir å prøve den når den blir tilgjengelig! Av app på telefon bruker jeg GURU maps, men blir stort sett garmin enheten jeg navigerer med også fører jeg over rutene mine fra basecamp eller MyRoute-app til GPS enheten med telefon! Jeg hadde nok hatt mer motorlyd og mindre musikk om jeg hadde hatt en god og fornuftig måte å fange lyden på. Men når man filmer med gopro 7 er det ingen gode alternativer til mic i nærheten av eksosen. Da blir det bare vindsus og støy! Men takk for tilbakemelding. Det setter jeg pris på
@@tshansen lasta appen ned i dag på telefonen, men den krever en gpx map for å kunne bruke rutene til navigering.. Ja det er noe med alt, kommer vel en eller annen lyd funksjon før eller senere. Ellers er det tipp topp å følge serien din her
@@toby7504 Krever TET appen en GPX map for å kunne bruke rutene? Da må du nesten hendvende deg til TET forumet eller gruppen deres på facebook, da jeg ikke har prøvd appen selv.
Haha, det er bare å komme seg ut på tur... Norge har å by på :-) Takk for det. Ja, jeg må si at jeg blir mer og mer glad i denne sykkelen. Nå har jeg virkelig fått teste den på variert underlag, å jeg har nok funnet den beste sykkelen for mitt bruk, enn så lenge :-)
