Are those the hepco and becker crash guards? I am currently looking at the few options that are offered for my gs 900f its nice to actually see it on the bike, moving around rather than just a picture, ride safe
@billweegink27 they're great on the road good on the gravel but average on hard pack wet tracks. I will throw the rear out soon at about 3500km but im pretty hard on tyres
@THENKDRCR . Yeah well I hear the 900 GS goes pretty hard. I'm undecided weather to go down the Nobby route as I still do a bit of black top as well. (GS1250) Maybe next winter 🤔 Thanks for your response 👍
Nice no bull-shit review. Does the box before muffler contain the cat converter? Difficult to remove/ get new pipe etc? First time I have seen it done. More power?
@LCBBuilders thanks mate, the cat is still on the bike, and the job is super easy. it takes 5 minutes. The F850gs link pipe is the same. I can't give a power comparison as I removed it with 7 km on the odometer 😁
We must have got your bikes on the same shipment. The delays were frustrating but worth it in the end. 👍 Which pipe did you get to remove the acoustic box?
@sillygitau It was the longest wait, I used a local exhaust supplier in Trafalgar MC Performace for the link pipe. Had plenty of his pipes over the years and can not fault them 👍
i cant believe the fuel range isn't better i have an ktm 640 adventure 29 ltr tank when im flogging it i get 450 k's when im carful im getting 500k's i would love to know what the adventure one is getting.
@shannonhumphry2180 I deliberately ran out of fuel and got 265km out of it. Road mapping with a mix of road/offtoad. Not ideal, but I knew what I was getting in to, I carry an 8lt Giant Loop Bladder for longer trips.
haha, great comment, "harden da fk up" awaiting mine Feb 25, can't freaking wait!!! nice vid, cheers
Thanks mate, I had a 3 month wait, but it's worth it 👌

Hello, what brand is the protection branch iron on the f900gs in the video? How can I reach it? Can you give me a link or address? Thank you 🙏🏽

Good report. Power/torque-wise, how does it compare to the V-Strom?
@mjpt57 low down the Strom has its measure slightly but it keeps making power way after the Strom gets breathless
@@THENKDRCRI had the first gen 2 Storm. Its torque maxed at 4,000rpm. The later models had a few more HP and torque higher up.
protection bars 🤔
Hello. Are you happy with the crash bars? There doesn't seem to be much choice anyway.
@suleymanmutlu6176 I have no complaints. There are a few other brands around. Ride well🤙

seats.. well... you did complain about the zx14 seat you had... a lot 🤣
@jeffandrews8578 that's what happens when someone thinks they can do better than the manufacturers 😁
