neat features. everything like that all those extra little details Honda puts into this bike just makes it more lovable. My last bike, DRZ400s, more or less had these same features, in slightly different form factors. But the way each manufacturer does their own really makes them unique to the brand and special in their own way. and just makes it neat and convenient

Funny you mention the steering lock. In the UK it's a requirement that you use the steering lock in order for your theft insurance to be valid, however it's widely known that you can break a steering lock by applying some torque to the handlebars, easily done by a single would-be thief. Somewhat of a farce really! I just consider the steering lock to be one level of security - I leave my bike parked in-gear, with the steering lock and also a disc lock, so at least if someone wants to steal it they have to know what they're doing and have some tools. Not impenetrable defences but at least my bike is a less appealing option than a totally unlocked bike next to it!

Yeah, you can definitely break them with enough force. Some older bikes had real locks that would break the bars off first!! Seems if a criminal wants something bad enough nothing will stop them. As you said, at least you know they had to work for it! Appreciate ya stopping by the channel man!! Means a lot from across the pond! Cheers!!

I'm not real sure about that to be honest. I dropped one tooth on my front sproket for tight woods riding. So far it's been plenty low for everything we've ridden. And, it didn't hurt the top speed much either.

Hey Tom! Thanks for watching man! I got this particular side mount from beezdealz.com in Thailand. Quick shipping and decent price. I will say if you live or ride on super rocky, rough trails like the Colorado rockies etc, the spot this rack mounts can break from work hardening. Most folks weld on a short piece of angle in the place of the stock mounting brackets. You'll need the rotopax mount system as well. It's the part that comes through the Jerry can handle and locks it in place. Most places that sell the rotopax sell the mount with it. I got mine from chapmoto.com on clearance. Another nice alternative is Giant Loop's Armadillo 2gal fuel bag.

Hey Chris, not that it matters, but I think there are 4 of those M6 holes in the rack. I mounted my box just like yours. Did that exhaust increase your power any? And, do you worry any about running a hot bike into a cold creek? I been wondering about that. Thanks, EE
@PSBEadventures
@PSBEadventures 2 жыл бұрын
You may be correct on that. The exhaust definitely helped the midrange on the bike an absolute ton!! Riding into a cold creek with the engine running won't hurt it in my opinion. I've never seen an engine I've taken apart that's been ran in creeks while at operating temperature have any visible or measurable damage.

I would say they are both very capable bikes of doing really close to the same things. The TW will definitely have an advantage in super rocky, uneven rough terrain due to it's big tires. I would attempt to ride both before making the purchase if possible. The TW will be a bit faster on the road as well but will handle very differently due to the wide tire on the back.
