After a few questions about setting the Crosstourer up for off-road work, here are my suggestions to help you protect the motorcycle during your BIG BIKE ADVENTURES.

Fantastic looking bike. Mine has a rear hugger. Not sure if it's fitted as standard but it's definitely hugging the wheel. Would you take this off?
@BigBikeAdventures
@BigBikeAdventures 2 месяца назад
It depends on how much dirt you ride. I have one on my latest 12X but don’t do much dirt on that bike anyway. They aren’t hard to take off or on..

Could you give links to bash plates, radiator guards, footpegs, etc. Brilliant video and very helpful, hoping to kit it out like yours! I'm 6ft5 are you similar height?
@BigBikeAdventures
@BigBikeAdventures 5 лет назад
Hi Chris, thanks for your comment and questions. I’m 6”2 so not a tall, but I am very short for my weight. 😉 The bash plate is the Givi Trekker (RP1110), it’s pretty hard core and mine has taken a beating and laughed. The pegs are SW Motech cant find the part number. If I was still using it as my main off-road bike I would have purchased some engine case guards as well. All the best.

@@BigBikeAdventures top man! Thanks for that, if you can think of anything else that might be handy in the xmas wish list give me a shout (also saw your suspension upgrades vid, v interesting) and I'll sort out some engine case guards also. Come on Honda, give this guy some royalties! You're the main reason I got a bloody cross tourer in the first place! Awesome bit of gear. Take care.

Chris Oram hahah, I get accused of that all the time. I can’t have done much of a job as they are not continuing with them. 😌😔 I can’t remember where I got the Rad guard, just if eBay I think. A good of tyres will make all the difference if you plan to get dirty. Get over to BBA on Facebook and post a picture of your bike!! 👍👍

Chris Oram They are Bark busters just without the plastic guard. They were donated to the Africa Twin. 😉

Having dropped mine a few times I would also recommend a brake snake on both the brake and gear lever. I'm also considering fitting the folding gear lever of the Africa to this. What is the Ram ball on the Givi Sump guard for? Camera? BTW for anyone else watching dont get the SW Motech Sumpguard. Sure it looks neater than the Givvi, but it just doesnt have the same protection level.
@BigBikeAdventures
@BigBikeAdventures 8 лет назад
Thanks for the comment Rob. Good idea, I agree with your suggestions, and yes the lower perspective on some of other videos is from the Ram mount on the bash guard. I purchased the Givi because it appeared more protective than the SW Motech so your comments are valid.

@BigBikeAdventures
@BigBikeAdventures 8 лет назад
This one has a Wilburs Black upgrade to the rear. I think most bikes come out with pretty average suspension so an upgrade of some sort will always be required if you are loading them with luggage.

Better in some ways, not all. The CT is a great bike and the AT was not available when I purchased the CT. ;-)
@olegyd
@olegyd 7 лет назад

@holdencaulfied7492
@holdencaulfied7492 7 лет назад
Oleg, the AT is the best ADV for off-road.. it's also the worst on-road, mainly because of the 21" wheel. Since these bikes never go off road (despite what this video shows), I'll take the VFR.
@ruimatos46
@ruimatos46 6 лет назад
The AT isn´t that much cheaper, and on the road the V4 is the best, but of course with the AT you burn less gasoline and it´s way better offroad...
