You're the first. Congrats got a like and a subscription. Setting the SAG. Superbike brain cells. Thank you.
Great review, as always!
These adventure bikes can make great touring bikes also. Being taller in 😢traffic( high seat and suspension l) makes it easier to see over trucks and SUV’s in front of you. Many smaller bikes you can not see over or around all these trucks and SUV’s. Many non adventure bike Harley’s are completely hidden behind traffic. Plus you feel fine going down dirt roads in comfort as well as some mild technical stuff
Sweet bike. Not too crazy about the floppy bags but everything else looks amazing.
All of the bags on our test bikes were ripping at the seams too.

Must have been someone in Marketing that made that decision.
@@marscruz Kind of a bummer since they're Givi made
@@ryanadams3240
Givi is a quality name. I like the looks and practicality of the Giant Loop bags I've seen. I've never used them though. I don't have a dirt or adventure bike right now but that's where I started my riding in the Santa Cruz mountains many years ago.
@@marscruz Yep, I was surprised to see them all failing in the same way. Testing out some Mosko Moto bags now that feel super stout.
Can't wait for the Upcoming Nuda 900..😍😍😍
Cool loved it
how would you rate engine vibrations when driving on highways, compared to Desert X and Afrika Twin ?
Great looking bike
Those last few seconds of the video, how did you get there? I've been living in that town my whole life and have explored almost everywhere on my bikes but I've never seen that road before. How did you get there? Looks incredible.
Interesting the controls on the clutch-hand side looks exactly same as the Aprilia Tuareg. Wonder if they source from same parts bin.
And what about driving on asphalt - can the suspension be set so that it is comfortable and not too stiff?
Ultimate adventure bike Expedition brutal bike 100%
Great review! I'm worried that this won't be a great 2up bike. Really want the offroad performance since I already have a 501 and want to be able to do some 2-3 day touring with my wife. My other choice is the Tiger Rally 1200 which, but I dread picking that beast up in the sand when I'm doing harder solo adventures. A hard choice since I like them both. Plus I have 32 inch inseam and worry about the cockpit being cramped. If i could afford, I'd buy both.
Two good bikes, but quite different. The Husky feels taller (which may not be an issue for you) and has a nice wide rider and passenger seat, though I think the Tiger's is more plush for both participants. The Tiger 1200 with its motor, electronics, and comfort would be a better two-up touring bike, hands down. I guess it just depends how much of which kind of riding you plan to do. Both manufacturers offer taller seat options.
I have the Expedition and ride 2 up all the time. Heading out now in fact. After us riding my little Crf300L around anything would be an improvement of course. I think it’s great for it and we couldn’t be happier. Heck there’s so much room I have to slide back in the seat so there’s no gap between us. I’m 6’2” so the height is great for me, in fact I have it in lower position so I could see shorter rider not being as comfy.
BUT what really sold me since all have the technology to help keep us safe would be the same on most the bikes I considered was the fact the Norden 901/KTM 890 are the best balanced ADV bikes and I couldn’t see going bigger if going off-road was a desire as it is for us.
Anyway, good luck. You’ll enjoy whatever you get I’m sure!
Safe travels! 🏍️💨
@@lukefish7562 Thanks for the info. Yeah, I'm 6'3" and didn't want to be cramped and make sure my wife was comfortable if we were going to doing any day trips. And I want something that can do double duty for some off road riding which might be more than just your standard gravel road. I'm pretty heavy at 245lb and mayl need to get some stiffer springs like I have with my 501. Especially if I'm carrying a passenger and some light luggage.
I am looking for a bike to do the Pan American. Being Swedish, and actually from a town only 60km from the town Huskvarna where Husqvarna originally comes from, it would be great if this bike would be capable enough. How much is the tank volume? The mpg? And how is the third party market?
I love kTm😁
Soft bags make more sense 😊
How tall are you?
5'8" with a 30-inch inseam.
How does it compare Ducati version?
Hoping to find that out for ourselves soon enough!
Where in South-Africa we're u?
West of Cape Town up in the mountains
@@ryanadams3240 you were in my home town. Would have been nice to meet u guys
@@jjvermeulen4931 Oh man, sorry to have missed you! These trips are usually very quick, but it would have been great to have connected with you while we were there!
@@ryanadams3240 What is your number?
And do u have whatsapp?
Then u can let me know the next time u are here
Bought one, rode it twice, sold it the next week. Really don’t like how wide the bike is at the seat and tank. Knees are spread too wide when sitting. Seat is too wide, also all the plastic rattles on rough roads. Nice looking bike and better air flow than the 890R, but the 890R (I’ve owned one) is a much better off road bike IMO.
What did you replace it with?
....until you need Waranty work.
(which you will)
Where’s Burnsy ?
Unfortunately, he's not around anymore... I mean he is, but not at MO. A corporate decision, definitely not a staff decision. We valued JB.
My feedback is that you used a lot of words, but I learned basically nothing watching your video. This isn't a review ... Just that you rode in a town you couldn't pronounce and liked it.
Revzilla does better reviews
The bags and bag mounts have to be the worst I have ever seen from an OEM. In every video I’ve seen of thIs bike not only are they flopping around as if they aren’t properly tied down, but the left side rack is sitting ridiculously far out from the bike. Poor design, poorly executed, and I’m sure all for premium money. 👎
And the seams were ripping at the same spot on every bag...
Sw motech, Touratech hard luggage.
We don't need all those fancy modes back to old school tacks can you imagine how much cheaper . At the end of the day it's just a bike i have the last rpm tach not my odometer on my 2018 1000 DL V Strom . I will try to keep it long as possible . Just saying .
