Owned a 650 strom like yours for 9 years. In 2018/9 I rode it two up around the world. 43,000 miles and no reliability issues. Cant think why I would buy anything else.

@TheNCcope 4 месяца назад

Mine has like 80k miles on it still going 🤙 want to see how many miles I can get out of it

That generation body style look so much better than what they are making today!

@anterebic789 3 года назад

Great review, looking to buy one of these next week. You should link all the upgrades you did.

Sexy bike. I'm looking at a 2013. Looking like it'll be my next bike.

Hello, nice review! What octane fuel do you find yourself putting into your Strom? Thanks for the help.

@emanuelearosio3435 Год назад

Thank you man, great channel and explications. Do you have a website with the list of all modifcations? I am curios about the horn you bought and the bridge over the front fork for example. cheers

@apexpedition4277 Год назад

Appreciate the view, the horn is a Nautilus, the fork brace is from Adventure Tech, LLC. The fork brace is a must have on this particular model. From my experience, it drastically stabilizes the steering in all corning situations.

Great video. Looks just like mine i have 2 questions. Where did you get your seat? And did you have any clearance issues with the 2 Brothers exhaust? Iv seen on a couple sites that it wont fit with the factory side racks.

@apexpedition4277 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! The seat I found through a company selling them on eBay. It's not a top name brand seat or anything. The Two bros just barely clears the side case rack. No issues with the exhaust though

Thanks for sharing. Seeing a 2012 Adventure version a couple hrs away that I'm considering. Never ridden a Strom but have owned 3 SV 650's and a SV1k. Biggest consideration for me personally is the size and weight as I'm not a big person and tend to prefer lighter weight especially if going off pavement. In reality it would likely become a commuter/day tripper/ occasional multi-day adventure bike in that order of use. I figure at the used prices I could still pick up a used DR650 for more off-road oriented rides and be under the price of most mid sized ADV bikes. The SV/Strom platform is just so easy to live with from a reliabilty and maintenance standpoint. I've owned faster/bigger and more exotic bikes and honestly not missing that much.

@apexpedition4277 3 года назад

Jeff I think you are considering some great bikes for your next purchase. The DR650 will definitely have more of a dirt bike feel with a seat height taller than the Vstrom. However with you owning several SV's the Vstrom maintenance would be a breeze. The DL motors are absolute tanks. Regardless of what make or model you go with I hope you find exactly what you are looking for. Stay tuned for more content I have coming out ✌️

@advorlando9855 7 месяцев назад

I have a 2012 650 Vstrom and the only regret you will have with it, is if you get rid of it. No Lie.

@benjaminmartinez5605 Год назад

Sorry, new to your channel, I have a 2015 love the idea of a muffler, ? Is it a slip on and does it back fire or pop . Thanks, Ben

@Kifaru254 3 года назад

Hi there, Great bike. Could you do me a favor and show me how you installed your ram mount phone holder above the dash?

@apexpedition4277 3 года назад

Kifaru there are two screws on the dash & I a bracket that slides in-between the screw & dash (acting like a washer) that firmly holds my RAM mount on the dash instead of the handlebars

@skutty5773 Год назад

I've got the same bike with about the same mileage just wondering if you had your valves checked yet?

@nelsonrodrigues4895 3 года назад

Hey. Whats the model of those handlebars and how do you feel it? I just got a 2013 strom and i hate the oem handlebar. I wanted a wider one but i am afraid it is going to pull the bar away from me and reach is a problem already, as it is. I am also worried about the fact that i need the bar wieights to go by fitting such a handlebar and that it afects the handling at speed. Apreciate your videos, thats an awesome machine u got there.

@apexpedition4277 3 года назад

Hey Nelson, the bars I am running on my '13 Strom are the Protaper "seven eighths (SE) ATV HI" bars. They slightly raise & widen your arm stance without adding a bar riser at all. 👍 Hope that helps, stay tuned for more content. -AP ✌️

@nelsonrodrigues4895 3 года назад

Thank u so much for your response. I already got bar risers but I think I am gonna go with that protaper as well as the puig screen. Maybe with the deflector, I am not sure. The buffeting was the main reason why I moved from my previous bike, I just can't stand it. I'll be following your work. Greetings from Portugal

@apexpedition4277 3 года назад

@@nelsonrodrigues4895 AwesOme!! Much love, & happy travels on your Vstrom 🤙
