running the motoz adventure rear, and tubles dual venture front on my 2024 over in saskatchewan. after a trip into bc with mixed back roads and twisty pavement..... two huges thumbs up after 4000km!! one thing that I noticed is the fly by wire throttle has a high amount of resistance. have some renthal large diameter very grippy grips that helped, and the cramp buster seems to take care of it.

I'm getting the Dunlop trailmax mission for my 800de. Got 200 miles on my 23, just did the airbox modification and plan on doing a cat delete. Also, I want to get my ecu flashed. I'm in the US so there are a couple options avail for this. Happy riding! These 800 de's are a very underrated motorcycle.

They are a good on road dirt/gravel tire but as others have said worthless in mud and sand. I pulled them off my GSA in less than 2000 miles, no sideways grip in the muddy conditions…put on Anakee Wilds…(Wilds are great but loud on road) I live on rural property with dirt roads plus dirt mud trails…am curious on the raids though. Good luck be safe!

I have seen some use their foot sideways under the tire to help hold it up when installing it back onto the bike. Also saw a guy place a tie-down strap over the seat and down both sides of the wheel and under the rim at 12 O'Clock posiiton (the top). He then ratched the tie-down to lift the wheel up. No straining on his body this way and no need to rush. Takes less than a minute then. The riders I know love the Missions but they are not great for deeper mud and deeper sand. Hard pack, gravel,... and pavement they are among the best dual tires available. There are great for the type of riding I do with my ADV bike. I do my more offroad intense stuff with my KTM 330 XC TPI, 2 stroke enduro.

@Italianborn on website it was safe and I had a great service from them. They answered all my questions by email. But it is expensive around 900 canadian dollars
Excellent tire! I'm on my second set! Great gravel and light offroad tire! Fire roads and shallow sand are no problem!! Superb highway performance too!
I hope you don't plan on riding off road with those tires..for the exact same price you could have gotten the dunlop trailmax raid or anything from motoz..sorry but the trailmax mission is the worst tire of what's available for the same price..
by off road you meant what? gravel and dirt should be alright tho and the price was very good i will try then anyway now that they are on. I will probably do more pave road and gravel. Thank you for comment
@@Jacklacassejust be careful on anything besides pavement..
@@Jacklacasse this is a 60/40 at best or at worst 70/30😮 onroad/offroad tire, you will do more than fine on gravel and intermediate offroad stuff but not in mud or sand. I am coming off a dunlop raid set and this will be my next set or mitas e07+ dakar. You have selected a great tire.
It is a great tire. Just keep your ego in check and build good skills, and this tire will perform. It's not an enduro tire, though. I have read that due to its hard compound it may fall out in turns in cold and wet conditions.
@@archivecontentsrestoration387 yes I confirmed. On dirt road and gravel it is really good.
Thanks for your video with your experience’s with the 800! I’m from Sweden and I bought one last July. I love it ! I’m and “old” guy and hitting 64 I oct so the mix of on and off road is my plan. Now I ordering you ( hehe) to show us how you installed your accessories and what brands you used. You seems to got the “know how “. Looking forward to learn more from you! Best regards from Johan 😊
I will post more video on modifications and ride. Next on will be about tire change thank you for good comment
Great 👍 😊
Agreed to this, I’d watch those vids - I had just googled the Oxford grips. Recently picked up the DE in Nova Scotia! Subscribed, cheers!
thank you @@bernielomax4859
Nice video !!how does the windscreen work ?, it seems to be the turkish one , i just bought one and i am wailting to be delivered in any moment I am from Uruguay Waiting for another video Thanks
Windscreen work alright but I don't like the shape to square me lol but much better then the original
Great video 👍
Keep them coming. I'm interested in the V Strom 800R for road use but, your videos should apply. I wish you had shown where you plugged the heated grips into. Thanks!
I've plugged then directly on battery like compagny ask for warranty
Fish, look into viridian cruse control. I have one on my ktm and it works awesome, the suzuki 800 is coming out soon. Around 300 bucks..
I'm just glad to see someone actually doing videos on the 800de
What cruise control and what brand and where can I get it??
Brand is mccruise control and you can order it on the Web
@@JacklacasseI looked everywhere and mccruise has no listing for the vstrom 800de.where di you order it from?
@@gabrielkopp2036 www.mccruise.com/products/cruise-control-for-suzuki-dl800-de-v-strom-tbw
@@Jacklacasse thank you for the link.. after seeing the price I will do without cruise control. 654 dollars usd.. no way I'd rather spend that money on something more useful like new boots and riding gear
@@gabrielkopp2036If you're taking long cruises, it's worth every dollar.
😁👍
