@@GPR111 i was of the similar position until i seen it in the flesh, it is much much nicer when its in front of you, Im trying to grow the channel, id really appreciate a like and a new subscriber.

​​​​​@@Getting-On thanks - I definately wont be buying in, I cant stand the std 1300 and was hoping the gsa would be inspiring but for me its an even bigger fail so the 1250 is my last for sure. I just find the aesthetics of the new bikes awful, its mostly the very poorly executed slab of cheap plastic covering the cruise "radar" sensor but there are other areas too which I find quite disappointing. They will go well for sure - as they should - but not for me. For big money I expect a tertific looking machine I want to look at but this I would just use like a car as a mode of getting places without giving a second glance ..... but I would actually give it more than a second glance and be thinking its ugly as fcuk ... 😲 ! Thats not biking,.... to me anyway.

@@jimthompson717 compare to the predators teeth, sort of look the same, plenty of pics for comparison, BMW are not noted for pretty things, but the ugly grows on you. Id never give up a bike for a car, unless necessity insisted. I’m trying to grow the channel, id really appreciate a like and a new subscriber.

They are a wide bike alright. The wings on the low crash bars are to remove the need to upper bars, and a bonus as a better leg rest. On bikes we have the ability to give the cyclists a wide hearth so not an issue there. Bar the S1000RR all other BMW motorcycles are ugly, but someone needs to love the ugly child.

There is a bit of that. BMW are disrupter’s and always break convention with their designs, I’ll get a test ride shortly and will try the manual and auto version and you never know this old dog might learn a new trick. I’m trying to grow the channel I would appreciate a like and a new subscriber..

It will be late Sept to early of before I can get a test ride and will try the manual and auto versions, and you never know I might evolve and get the auto. I’m trying g to grow the channel, I would appreciate a like and a new subscriber..

I sped’d 2 up, 33-35k with luggage, ouch Had to leave before I did. I’ll be back next month for a test ride and will try the manual and auto versions

@@aivarsfreibergs2206 You have to use the Yamaha App My Ride and or MyRide-Link to setup the Bluetooth, and enter the VIN or Scan the QR code from the Bluetooth module under the seat. Im trying to grow the channel, id appreciate a like and a new subscriber.

@@Getting-On yup, myride-link is what i tried unsuccesfuly, but trough the other myride app it connects as you say. Myride-link is not showing any vehicles at all.

@@aivarsfreibergs2206 glad the reply helped, i ve had to use a combination of the 2 apps to get the Bluetooth connected.

@@aivarsfreibergs2206 glad it helped

@@trailrunnermike yes, I have the inner bags and remove them into accommodation, but when off roading over a few days I prefer to remove the rig to remove all weight and risk of damage to the kit, leaving only the tail bag with tools and tubes, im trying to grow the channel, id really appreciate a like and a new subscriber, so please consider both. Thanks David

@@trailrunnermike Thank you, it sure was, Ive since sold the World Raid and bought a brand new T7 Extreme, I’m thinking of a new kit for the new bike, so watch this space. Im trying to grow the channel and would appreciate a like and a new subscriber.

@@trailrunnermike Thanks for your comment, all the straps are standard with the Enduristan Blizzard luggage, the big ones are for the throw over, and the small ones are for holding in place to the bike. It’s a bit of overkill and there is way too much length in all the straps, but they are universal and some bikes are bigger so more length is needed. The small straps have metal hooks on the end which i had to heat to bend out to fit my rear rack. It’s great luggage and im very happy with it. One downside is it’s a pain to remove quickly, a base system that stays on the bike with quick release would be better.

@@tjzulu1 many thanks for your comment, i fully tested the hack before i applied it to my bike and the front seat is held firmly in place by the rear seat.

The hex eZcan splits the OBD connection looping back in the Bluetooth module, but I plugged in a OBD fault code reader. To have both you need to add a splitter cable from the Yamaha OBD port to the OBD port. I’m trying to grown the channel, I’d really appreciate a like and a new subscriber.

Thanks for your comment, I’ve not found heat shrink in that size before, but that is all it is with the bike logo on it.

@@geoffreywilson9137 its the same process, go into the menu, find date time settings to set the time use the wheel to change the time, the press, then press and hold.

@@regarolt1691 I only learnt about the OEM crash bar issues a couple of days ago, so not too happy about that, I agree on the seat the Extreme seat is noticeable more uncomfortable than the seat on the World Raid, and having owned one for 2 years I noticed within 10KMs. There is a Scott stealing damper ive see a lot of people using, i will check it out and if i buy one I’ll put up a video. Im trying to grow the channel and i would really appreciate a like and a new subscriber, so if you could that would be excellent.

@@Getting-On I gave you a like, I live in Germany, and the Scott steering damper is not allowed on public roads in Germany. The police in Germany are very strict with the controls and would immobilize my motorcycle.

@@regarolt1691 Thank you, i did not know the Scott damper was not road legal, ive seen a few in use i Ireland on the road, but our police would not know if its legal of not.

Standard seat can be fitted to the extreme . And the low seat also
