Brilliant review! Thank you for sharing! I'm in between the Defender 3 & the Poseidon 3 but I'm not sure to fully understand how's the vent work on the Poseidon... Does the Gore-Tex layer sits behind the vent and sort of blocking the airflow? Is the white material we can see behind the vent the Gore-Tex Fabric? Or is the Gore-Tex layer sits on the top so the vent can air flow in right into the mesh and straight into the skin?

Hi great review but how does it compare to your Ducati monster I love the look of the monster but which is best to ride and power wise cheers
@motorcycleMoff Жыл бұрын
Apologies for the late reply. Both the bikes are absolutely fantastic. Very different but fantastic in there own way. The monster is a lot more vibey and has grunt but still has loads of power and can feel sporty. I can happily say I wouldn’t trade my monster in for the KTM. However the KTM was lovely to ride. Filled me with tons of confidence. Felt more refined than the monster but of course has plenty of punch. If I owned one I would certainly be happy with it. Both bikes put massive smiles on my face. So I don’t think you can go wrong with either.

Hi, I am looking for new mirrors on my Vitpilen and I want some small ones as its the 401 version. I find inversed mirrors (under the handlebar) and directed towards the tank looks nicer. It looks like these ones can rotate to 380° but even with the small demo at 8:00 I am not sure they can rotate all the way. So, one simple question : can they rotate 380° arround the axle which is perpendicular to the handlebar? Thank you :-)

Hey first of all thank you for watching the video. So the mirrors you can have in almost any orientation. I did originally put them on facing down but later decided that up was easier and clearer to see behind me. You can rotate the mirror 360° at both the end of the bar section and also the mirrors 90° arm section. Plus the mirror itself can rotate round and be angles as well. I’m sure you would be able to get it into what ever position you liked. Cheers again and safe riding. 🤙🏼

I don't care if they look like "elephant ears" as much as I want to make sure I can see them easily.

Just wanted to describe the view in the 80mm's - I can look down to the right and see everything behind me in both lanes. It is so nice to have actual proper mirrors and not have to do weird motions with my arms and head just to see around them and get an idea of what's back there. They are adjustable like a car mirror, I just reach down and push them where they need to be. They stay where they are put. But adjust easily. They are just better mirrors than the ones I replaced. It took me a while to get used to having a good view of what was behind me at all times.

The S1000XR is just an incarnation of the s1000R with a comfortable riding dynamics suited for folks who want to Have fun on the city roads, twisties, would like to ride long distance once in a while and never bother to go off-roading .And the looks of the bike(S1000XR) are amazing .As fas as my requirements are concerned , this one checks all those boxes and is one of the best all rounders that one can purchase.

Thanks for posting this video. I have the exact same bike as you have (also in liquid grey), so my compliments for your excellent taste ;-) By the end of June, I am planning to do a 10 day journey with also a fair amount of motorway miles. For that reason, I was looking around for a simple to install, discrete but effective windscreen. After seeing this video, I also ordered the Puig windscreen (in the light shade version, which should be a touch brighter compared to yours). Good to read that you still have the Monster. I saw one of your other videos “Last ride”, so I thought that you sold it.... Again, thanks for sharing and please keep those 1200S videos coming! Greetings from the Netherlands!

Ha ha great minds think alike my friend. Yeah the screens certainly far from a touring screen but I’m more than happy with it for what I need. It just takes brunt of the wind off the chest on those windy days or longer miles plus it looks not too bad for a screen on a naked bike. I really like the fact that it’s so easy to put on and take off as well. Always handy if you only need it on for short periods. Would love to hear how your trip goes. Would be great to hear how you and the bike manage. I certainly want to get away and do some big trips. So I’m happy to take any tips that you can offer ha.

Do you have vibration issues ?
The bike does vibrate a lot as you may have guessed but I haven’t had an issue with not being able to see in the mirrors because of it.
Is the threadlock really necessary
Not necessary but because the bike does vibrate a fair bit, I like to put some on just to keep it secure. 🤙🏼
I tried to removing the 6mm bolt but the threadlock glue to stuck tight and cant get the bolt out. How do you get the bolt out?
The only way I know to loosen thread lock is with a little heat. Hope that helps 🤙🏼 thanks for watching the vid
@@motorcycleMoff what did you use to heat up the thread lock?
Thanks for posting this video. I have the exact same bike as you have (also in liquid grey), so my compliments for your excellent taste ;-) By the end of June, I am planning to do a 10 day journey with also a fair amount of motorway miles. For that reason, I was looking around for a simple to install, discrete but effective windscreen. After seeing this video, I also ordered the Puig windscreen (in the light shade version, which should be a touch brighter compared to yours). Good to read that you still have the Monster. I saw one of your other videos “Last ride”, so I thought that you sold it.... Again, thanks for sharing and please keep those 1200S videos coming! Greetings from the Netherlands!
Ha ha great minds think alike my friend. Yeah the screens certainly far from a touring screen but I’m more than happy with it for what I need. It just takes brunt of the wind off the chest on those windy days or longer miles plus it looks not too bad for a screen on a naked bike. I really like the fact that it’s so easy to put on and take off as well. Always handy if you only need it on for short periods. Would love to hear how your trip goes. Would be great to hear how you and the bike manage. I certainly want to get away and do some big trips. So I’m happy to take any tips that you can offer ha. I’m glad the video helped and I certainly do plan on getting more videos done in the near future. Thanks you for watching, really appreciate it. Stay safe and enjoy your trip 🤙🏼😄
Just had at it with m y 696 .... kind of a pain in the ass lol ..
Ha definitely a bit of a pain but worth it to get rid of the standard one ha. Thanks for watching bro 🤙🏼
Are the tube adaptors included with the mirror?
Thanks for watching and the comment No the adapters were sold separately. They were about £10 per adapter. Which is handy if you need to replace just one but also annoying since it extra cost on top of the mirror price. Hope this helps 🤙🏼
Good review.. Nice to see the bike ridden down some slower rds at real world speed's
Aw thank you Chris for the comment and for watching, really appreciate it😁. Yeah my aim is to do real world “average joe” videos since I know we aren’t all Moto GP track day superstars. I know I’m certainly not that’s for sure ha. Thank you again for watching 🤙🏼
2 secs in. like for your schnüütz :)
Ha thank you😁 Thank you for watching as well 🤙🏼
Hello dude, nice Bike Gonna buy the rizoma too for my monster 1200s. What is the reference for the CNC Racing ? TY <3
Thank you. Yeah highly recommend the Rizoma mirrors. Love them. What do you mean sorry? The cnc racing plugs to replace the original mirror bolts? Thank you for you watching 🤙🏼😁
@@motorcycleMoff yeah I found on CNC Racing, is that the M10 or M8 ? Thx bro
They are the M8 bolts mate. Had to buy a left hand and a right hand thread separately. Hope this helps 🤙🏼
Cute mirrors
Thanks for the video, I just bought this kit for my 2018 monster 1200s and will follow your instructions
Nice. Glad the video will help. It’s a great kit. Makes the tail end look so much neater. Thank you for watching and commenting. Really appreciate it 🤙🏼
Hello there, been looking at this bike, are they reliable. As I can't decide between a z900 , Mt 09, or the monster( I think the monster is a keeper) but running cost is the worry.
I can’t say I have found the running cost to be anything to worry about. I’ve had the bike for over 3 years now and it’s been perfectly manageable for myself. I also tested the MT09 and personally think the monster 1200 S was the easy choice out of the two. That’s just my opinion though. Hope this helps my friend and Thank you for watching😄🤙🏼
Nice review, Subscribed, ohh, how do you flip the camera to you and back forward again, not seen that before, looks very smooth.
I record a lot of the time with a 360 camera. So can flip the camera round at any point since it records all 360°. Thank you for watching and thank you for subscribing 🤙🏼😄
thanks for making the vid! very helpful - appreciate the text overlay for the procedure change :) I dig the video style - check out BMCO if you haven't seen his stuff you might dig it too I found the change in music genres kindof off putting - slide guitar to grunge felt disjointed feel free to disregard my feedback but it would be rad to see your channel grow so im throwing out some unsolicited constructive criticism - plus im playing tipsy youtube while waiting to pickup my 1200s in 2 days woot! (already got the same tail tidy so your vid was ace!)
Not at all. I always appreciate feedback. Always open to constructive criticism. I’m glad you overall likes the video though. Thank you for the feedback as well. Ha I’m sure you will enjoy the monster once you get it. Glad to hear your already modding it. Definitely looks better with some aftermarket parts ha. You will need to let me know how you get on. Thanks for watching. Really appreciate it 😄🤙🏼
Thanks for the informative video. I know it's not a touring bike (obviously) but have you tested it with a pillion? I would be interested how it holds up on a longer journey :)
Yeah I have been out loads with my partner on the back. She said it was fine. As you would expect she would need a break every now and then but overall she always said it was relatively comfortable. Thank you for watching 😄🤙🏼
@@motorcycleMoff cheers! :)
Thanks for sharing. I have 2014 and that has a different tail setup. Anyone knows any video for 2014 model?
No worries bro. Thank you for watching 🤙🏼 hope you find one that fits.
Do these mirrors fold in flush to the bars
To don’t necessarily fold in flush but you can fold them up or down so they don’t stick out. So if your filtering you can just move them in. Hope this helps and thank for watching the video. 🤙🏼
Hi happy to have found your channel just what i was looking for with all the links to check everything out BIG THANKS
I’m glad I could help. 😄Thank you for watching and Stay safe my friend 🤙🏼
nice mate cheers for that.
No worries mate. Thank you for watching 🤙🏼
Your breathing looks like you are an after a hard Covid kick.
good review, hard to understand some words though, that might just be the accent Also epic stache bro!
😂👨🏻 it is that time of year for tasches. Ha yeah apologies. I forget when I’m out on the bikes that people need to understand what I’m saying at times. I just get sucked into it 😂 I’m glad you liked the video regardless. Thank you for watching and for the feed back. It’s Greatly appreciated 🤙🏼 Stay safe 😃
