thanks

thanks for stopping by mate!!! :)

Me gusta

thanks a lot!!

bakerXderek mr.x you here?

thanks a lot Kwak!!!

Geht mir genauso. Schaust du dir die neuen Modelle an? Die sollen ein deutlich besseres Fahrwerk haben, tendiere deshalb zur XCX ('15+).

thanks a lot man!!

thanks Abdullah!

exactly!

i have this bike. Totally worth the purchase

awesome!

thanks and congrats again!!

tehehehehe :D And yes indeed those 800cc tourers make quite a lot of sense out there!!

awesome!!

I'll pass on the brake pads advice, thanks!! :)

thanks a lot, as usual :)

please read the description

Hmm... I should have checked that. Lots of great info there!

tomorrow im Selling my V strom 650 and unter the Chrismas Tree will be Tiger 800 XC or XcX ! Tiger is Triple engine and Tracer 900 also! but Tracer 700 has no triple!

naw, I had to get back to my mates waiting at the other side of the road anyway ;))))

thanks Carmo mate!

Damn, I am very sorry to hear that, Jeremy. Sending my deepest condolences. And still wish you all the strength you need. I'm very glad that my videos could help a tiny bit at least :) Thanks for sharing this!!

+Schaaf The thanks go to you for the videos that recently helped me through a really rough patch. As for the Triumph Tiger video I enjoyed it so much I was smiling!!! Thank You.

merci bcp

thanks

Sound is stock exhaust?

nice!

thank YOU!

very impressive!! Congratulations!

thanks!

thanks a lot! There is a video of me riding a 690 Duke on my channel!

thanks a lot mate!! Pirelli Scorpion Trail were used. I also liked them on the Multistrada!

They look like they inspire confidence for a dual tyre. This bike has the 21 inch front yes? Really looks like it handles well. Has the rear been stiffened up, as it seemed to power out of bends really well? I have ridden a Tiger Sport and that was great… but a little heavy. The new Yamaha T7 should be great fun.

no idea about the tire dimensions but I know for sure the rear didn't get touched!! The Tiger Sport I'm sure must be a whole nother story on the road :)

the engine in combination with its handling actually :D

awesome!! Have fun!!

maybe next season! Thanks a lot, Alex!!

thanks man

I'm not comparing a touring enduro with a sportsbike :)

Unfortunately never had the chance to make a video with the big Strom

ja, der Motor ist der Oberhammer! Wenn die wirklich nächstes Jahr eine 800er Street Triple bauen würden...

yea!

ehehehe well spotted ;)

Schaaf some of us read the vid descriptions

I'm usually most interested in the "not so bad" bikes and the Street Twin must be tons of fun I'm sure!!

I wonder how is the handling of such bike (ST)

would love to

I don't have the money nor the bike to go to the track. But in a couple of years I certainly will.

I support this 😇💪💪💪

unfortunately all dealers I ever contacted were not interested in my offers so far... but my lord this MV sounds very interesting indeed. Thanks for the suggestion, I really appreciate it!!

oh yes that would be fun I'm sure

konnst du mia sogn wo des is ? danksche :D

In der Beschreibung is immer ein Google Maps Link :)

danke dir :)

had a ride on mt09. very nice bike, very BMX-like, in positive meaning. however jelly rear in fast corners. especially when you treat the throttle hard after passing an apex... :-(

I'm sure it would be a lot quicker on the roads. But I like the smaller engines actually.

Welche Enduro denn genau?

Sorry das ich es nicht gleich dazu geschrieben habe, musste ich heute selbst nachfragen welches Model genau. Es ist die Suzuki XF 650 Freewind.

Kein Ding. Ich hab' selber nur mit relativ wenigen Mopeds Erfahrungen, die Freewind kenne ich nicht. Aber alleine wenn ich mir das Datenblatt und die Bilder davon ansehe, dann kann ich mir sehr gut vorstellen, dass die bei Geschwindigkeiten von 120 km/h schwammig/schwimmend wird. Ich würde das tatsächlich als normal betrachten. Auf einer 1996er Africa Twin war ich heuer mal unterwegs. Da schwimmt alles, so bald man ein wenig flotter unterwegs sein möchte!

Er ist vor ca. 20 Jahren mit ner Gold Wing und die letzten Wochen mit meiner Honda gefahren, dadurch konnten wir beide das nicht einordnen ob das bei so ner Maschine wie der Suzuki normal oder doch etwas beschädigt ist bzw. falsch eingestellt. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Info :)

vielen Dank!!!

Kein Problem, freut mich dich wieder auf der Maschine zu sehen :) Du rockst echt die Kurven :D

great choice!!

thanks man!

Thanks!

ach, die Street ist da schon wesentlich sportlicher ausgerichtet :)

yes they did start to feel a little slippy when riding bigger lean angles. But not just the rear also the front.

yes that would be interesting indeed!

Schaaf if you ever come to Portugal I can let you go for a ride on mine.

cool!

try something like a 950 Multistrada or 850 GS ;)

examples please. As far as I'm aware I'm not. And I was the one who was riding the bike therefore I guess I'm the only one who knows.

I went through the whole video, annotating a shedload with discussion, and then clicked on next video before I'd save the comment... D'oh! So here's just the first clearcut one... 0:41 seconds... imagine a car pulling out of or turning in to that entrance on the apex, and you were doing 35mph+ on a line where you probably ought to have been doing about 15mph... or you could have taken a wider line & turned in a lot later and only had to go a bit slower... there were a couple of examples later of you piling into unsighted dead ground (i.e. bits of road where you don't know what is on them even if you do know where they go) at 60mph+... I don't think you need me to point those out to you... Just mentioning it. I know we are here for a good time not a long time, but hitting a stationary or turning vehicle at 60mph is a mistake we usually only get to make the once...

you do realize I check the road before going for a video run? You do know I could ride this road blindfolded? Still I agree that I am taking risks indeed. But I'm not putting anyone else in danger more than all other bikers are doing. I actually tend to say I'm less of a risk for others even because compared to an estimated 70% of all bikers here in Austria I at least know how to ride a bike. And if you really think that I don't realize that hitting a stationary object with 60 mph would be the last thing to hit I do feel offended. You're depicting me as incredibly stupid and clueless person for not knowing this. I just love how some people legitimize themselves to judge over others through watching an ultra wide action camera video (distorts everything) without knowing how the riding does feel to the person who's doing it. I would never ride like this if I wouldn't feel at a 100% control all the time. I'm guessing that maybe you're a driving instructor or something like that which apparently gives you the confidence to judge. Would I act as ignorant as you I'd take a look at your profile picture and say that you need to work on your body positioning. A lot. But it's a simple photo and I don't know under which circumstances it got taken. Therefore I don't judge. Do you REALLY think I'm not aware of the risks I'm taking?

Well... I commented that I thought you were being quite brave, you said you weren't and asked for examples, so I went through and found several... and then lost them again. But I gave you one. And now you are saying that you know you override your sight lines but you are happy to take the risk, which may be the answer but isn't what you first responded with. I don't think 'checking the road first' has much to do with anything. I mean, if you know a stretch of road really well, well enough to know the profile of every corner in advance on approach, then at least you aren't going to pile into a fast sweeper at 80mph and have it turn into a hairpin unexpectedly, although if it's a road you've only ridden up and down the once, it definitely could happen, and you're always going to have those 'Oh shit I thought the next corner was a fast left not a slow right' moments. Still, even if you do know the road intimately enough not to be caught out, other traffic is a variable hazard. While I agree that you are _mostly_ risking your own neck, not other people's, that's not 100% true - there are other vulnerable road users who might die in your accident, and I don't envy the job of the paramedics who have to scrape what's left of you up and bag it up if it does go wrong, that sounds like a job that could really mess with your head... I might also note that you didn't really use road positioning to mitigate the risk. There was more than one occasion in a right hander for example where if you'd been positioned further out towards the white line, rather than in the right hand gutter or trying to take a classic track-style apex, you would have been able to see further ahead, and be seen from further ahead; if you don't want to reduce your speed, use positioning to extend your sight lines... Riding bikes is awesome fun, and riding fast particularly so. It's dangerous enough already, though, just because you are doing ridiculous speeds on an iron horse feet away from very solid scenery, without adding to it by doing things that you know _will_ go badly wrong if you keep doing them, surely? . Anyway, none of these things matter if you are happy with the approach you take to fast riding.

I indeed am very happy with my approach. Thanks for sharing your concerns.

none of my friends is riding one so I'm afraid no ;) Thanks!

ja, die ist sicher sehr cool. Leider etwas zu teuer zum Probieren für mich :D

Yuval Naveh He uses a dedicated microfone in the backpack, check the description for the link.

thanks, alex!!

Saw it now Fantastic.

thanks again my friend!! You'd have a blast with it in the hills I'm sure!!

absolut!!

yup, just riding around. Depends on the bike and tire.

only for a very short time. But I know from friends that indeed it's a great bike to ride!!

for road riding I'd take the xRx

Makes sense. Thanks

kann ich mir leider derzeit nicht leisten, muss noch ein bisschen warten :)

digga, diese skill level. aber keep the rubber side down fam

lol

Danke! Ende Juli 2016

Thanks

it's not mine

looks like this bike made for you

every bike from this category is basically made for me

Thanks

it still is the same!

GOOD JOB MATE

I don't know since I don't own this Tiger and haven't used it more than for those video rides

Just traded my STR for a Tiger! Very happy with it. I went with Metzeler Tourance Next tyres. Keep making awesome videos!

immer

Schaaf , nur im winter

der hat quasi schon angefangen :(

Schaaf , leider jo... jetzt hot is leben 6 monat kan sinn 😂

yup!! Thanks for sharing mate!

Hi mate, l am eyeing the 800 Xr, is there a huge difference between 15 and 13 Models? Does Ride by wire affects the handling that much? Not sure if l should go for 15 or 13 and save 1000 bucks and spent that on exhaust etc...

there are many more actually :)

Didn't notice those, but alrighty then, thought it was by mistake 😊

Thanks

Driving in second and third gear all the Time costs a lot of Gas though😂

never tried one

hat's für dich so ausgesehen, als ob die Reifen irgendwie gestört hätten? :)

Janyboy666 Der Unterschied ist das 21" Vorderrad zum 19" XR Rad. Ausgeliefert wird sie mit ganz normalen Tourenreifen.

Ja, sieht so aus als würden dich die Reifen stören. Hohe Drehzahlen aber wenig Schräglage! Auf dem Seitenständer steht sie schräger :-)

Nope

the big GS is from another bike class. Not fair to get compared to the smaller 800. I'd have to try the smaller GS for a comparison :)

would love to!

I feel more comfortable, yes. Of course the difference is more noticeable on unfamiliar bikes.

Schaaf But of course! Hopefully i will have my tiger xc soon. Such a great bike. Greetings from cali keep up the great work my friend

you'll love it!!!

die streifenden Fußrasten waren mir schräg genug. Da würd ich dann gern sehen, was du unter Schräglagen verstehst? Mit dem Lenker am Boden?

Dass bei der Tiger 800 die Rasten sehr früh aufsetzen ist hinlänglich bekannt und hat nichts mit fahrerischem Können zu tun. Besonders albern ist dein Angstschrei bei 0:28

I actually don't and I'm not joking. To me it felt very good. Guessing almost 9 years on the wobbly Honda did that. I'm only slowly realizing how this turned me into a somewhat weird rider hahaha

+Schaaf The wobbly Honda is boss. Whether 2,3 or 4 cylinders Triumphs make that manic engine whine noise when pushed hard. Addictive.

true that!

is it? Never tried the FS 800 :)

I'd prefer 250K ;)

yes

@@Schaaf 1million % agreed. I guess the Tiger will do... why?! Road and Offroad use is amazing. It's like 9mm or 45acp? both... but if u can only afford one now... 40s&w lol

@@Schaaf God bless you brother.

leiwaund

Ok

proper bike for sure

Cool

@@Schaaf #Popcorn!

doing that would be rather stupid so I choose not to
