Tubes are easier to replace in the middle of nowhere. I have no clue why guys like tubeless. You can tear a tire and replace a tube and keep going to get a tire. Blow a tubeless and youre done.

@@DeezNutzInYaMouf123 even better with tubless, quick fix just plug it, carry a tube should u need one. 99 percent of punctures are solved with plug, can get a pinch flat with low pressures and tubes. Even when fitting a new tube. U can always use tubes on a tubless tire and rim. Not the other way around

Thanks for this video. Your enthusiasm is brilliant. I’m a Honda fanboy been riding them for 40+ years. Reliability awesome. Last summer I took my 2019 CB500X on a three month tour of Europe, mostly wild camping around Scandinavia. I did 13,000 miles and all the bike needed was oil changes and tyres. If I wasn’t so old and short the AT would be right up my street. Thumbs up and I’ve subbed, look forward to your future vids ✌🏻🙂

Glad to finally see a review of this new 'Frica Win. Thx !

I have the electronic suspension on my ATAS. It’s great, it can be firm for twisties and set it as a bit more soggy for a comfy long distance touring ride. Love it 👍.

I had the previous 1100l and ordered this as soon as it was released. Getting the ES version was the best decision. I’ve had many bikes with ES and this one is so different in each mode. The extra kick at 5k is also fantastic.

Seriously considering this new AT as my next bike. Currently riding a 2023 T7, which I still absolutely enjoy riding after 12 months of ownership.. but this new AT is at the top of my list come PX time! 🙌🏻 I went back to basics with my current T7 - from having a Tracer-9 GT before that, with all those various bells and whistles fitted to that like this Honda, but I really miss not having the cruise control!..(and tubeless wheels) Just one question for you, are you sure the different riding modes limit the actual power of the engine?? Or do they merely just give you a less/more sharp throttle response? Good review btw 👍🏻

Great video! Thank you. 👍 When you came up to the stop sign and stalled it, I laughed right along *with* you. I've done the same thing, thinking I was rolling up in Neutral. lol Question: If your current ATAS had electronic suspension, would you still trade it in for the '24 standard with ES & DCT? Or would you only consider the '24 Adventure Sport as enough upgrade for you to make the switch? Thanks again.

@wojtekhaj

5 ай бұрын

@@Mrfish2015 never ridden an electric one but can compare stock and updated since it is a progressive and thicker spring. When doing maintenance on forks will change springs as well. Don't have the need for electronic (one more electronic component that may be pricey to fix and maintain) since i have it tuned for my liking and not going to go heavy off-road and street on street-oriented tires (would need a second wheel set). Not sure if spring can be changed on electronic one without messing it up as afterwards is needed to re-adjust compression and rebound. Keep it simple and have fun.

I have the ATAS, i,want the new one, I’ll have to downgrade to the non Adventure Sports, because I need that 21” front wheel, I like the technical stuff. I am gonna have to figure out where to put the extra gas. I live in the southwest of the US, a tru adventure can be a long distance between gas stations

What's up Fish

What would the price of a DCT/ES version be in that basic spec? Only if you know of course. Is it top heavy (as my Crosstourer DCT Highlander was) That's why I traded down to an NC750x at Doble's (after watching your review in 2021).

@Mrfish2015

5 ай бұрын

Check it the link , it gives prices there (you can configure too) I didn’t like the crosstourer so I would say this is miles better

May i ask? The ES configures the suspension as you would by rotating the nobs and screws manually prior riding. Does it also set your suspensions WHILE riding depending on your speed and the quality of the road? Is there a dynamic action while riding the motorcycle in order to improve handling?
