Great review. What fantastic roads and stunning views. I've got no real interest in off-road bikes but the visuals were so impressive I had to cast this from my phone onto the big TV to do it justice. Well done! 👍

That's brilliant... recognised the Franschoek Pass and Theewaterskloof ... but where was that track near the railway... looked like an epic route!

Not sure, we can ask.

Great review Chad, as has been mentioned, video quality is awesome, final question, when you sat down talking, what was the make of the top you are wearing?

“I think that pig’s real” 😂😂 brilliant!!

Where do you guys get your background score It’s simply epic ❤

And on the soft luggage, i will use only for light off road and touring , use my DirtBags and Wolf man bags for the hard stuff.

Love the looks, i can remember this brand back in the 1970s, How reliable are they going to be, and if you get issues are customers going tobe fobbed off like some KTM customers have ,

Saw Chris's name in the list of riders at the weekends Cock o the North races at Oliviers Mount at Scarborough but disappointed that he was not there.

I am new to all this adventure bike stuff. Whilst i am not planning on going of road, i am wanting to buy something to go touring on, whilst i can't say what type of roads i would encounter, I assume it would be mostly road with the odd dirt/gravel road. What i am wanting to know, is it worth paying 13.5k on a 901 or buying a 1250GS for a few grand more{S/H}. I have found myself stumped on what to buy. Not fond of the KTM looks or reliability for that matter, tiger range looks good, but always found triumphs and BMW GS's for that matter, to be 'an old man's bike'. As popular as they are, is a 27-year-old going to get stick for having a GS or Tiger?

If you want long distance touring the GS is the one. You'll only get stick if you become the stereotype of a GS rider.

I say go for something midrange if youre new to the segment. The GS is an absolute unit, you might not like the extra pounds it carries. The midrange bike will do everything well at reasonable weight and price. You can go up or down from there with ease.

Funny that Chad gets the gucci trips then rubs Chris' nose in it.

You wouldn’t have crashed if you had the new thirteen inch tft screen and four more off road modes. That doesn’t come til next year’s model. Start practicing the superlatives guys.

Yeah those stock tires are no good in the sand.

Sticky out panniers flopping around like spaniel ears! Why? Just to accomodate a high exhaust...

$14k USD and we don't have a Hydro clutch or Brembo brakes? Or is that not needed?

So, an all around improvement…..except for what has to be the worst designed pannier racks and panniers. Compare the racks to the stainless KTM Power Parts ones for the 890 Adventure 😳, and then there’s those soft panniers that are so poorly designed that they are flopping around like a clipped wing chicken on every bump 😱.

Pigs, penguins and prangs 😅

sand is the worst..... weight on the pegs, pull both grips back and keep the power on. hopefully dont cross up and cartwheel.

Freak scary design
