Fxxx. I have been around both dirt and street bikes since I was 14 and now 64 and the lengthier chain / wheel base / suspension trick is an eye opener for me. I have never heard of that before. And the lighter chain should also grab a little better performance and fuel saving. The Li batteries are a no brainer and I have been running them on my dirt and street bikes for about 5 + years and they are still going. I am no racer but just a reasonable competent rider and I got back onto the dirt about 10 years ago to do an East West desert run (Australia) with a group and so I bought a KLR650 to do that trip. I haven't done much in the last 3 or 4 years but now the T7 has got me interested in doing more and I will follow your build and swap the bush pig for a thoroughbred.. Thanks again

I did the tail tidy and exhaust(Mivv Dakar; sounds awesome!). Stock header, but there's weight savings and power to be gained there(didn't want to tune the ECU/airbox). Removed the rear sets. Aftermarket pegs and skid plate. Took off the luggage racks that were on it from the previous owner. Made a world of difference to drop ~50lbs. Battery would be my next mod. The bike dances on the trails now. Goes wherever I point the front tire in a hurry. I've seen the pros run a single disc brake upfront to save weight and there's an aftermarket headlight kit which saves a sizeable amount of weight. However, I think the stock T7 headlights are super cool looking. I looked at carbon bars, but they seemed too pricey for what I could find but haven't checked the market in a year or so. Carbon wheels would be huge but only saw very expensive custom options last time I checked a year ago. Removing weight is the best mod imo as the T7's weight can be a handful for how capable of an off-road bike it is. Pol Tarres went to the extreme of removing the console, titanium nuts/bolts and carbon body work as well.

@MotologyFilms Adam, great tips as usual 👌💯 My 890 is stripped well back, it tips the scales at 195 with 10ltrs of fuel (just tools/first aid kit on board, no luggage) After experimenting with soft panniers and other bags i hated the pendulum effect when hanging the arse end out, it just spoiled a good bike. So i took advice from one of your videos and the luggage is trimmed right down to 15-17kg depending on summer or extras for winter. It all rides mid bike in saddlebags below the seat line (only really light bags up top) All sits nice and central with a low C of G, it drifts nicely without the arse feeling like a wrecking ball. The biggest savings were wheels, brakes, full Ti exhaust, ti footpegs and lipo battery. The rest was removing trim parts, rear pegs, redundant brackets, less cable ties and the use of Ti and aluminium fasteners. The difference between the stock rear wheel/E07+ and a MX wheel (billet hub with excel rim) with enduro tyre and HD tube was 5.3kg saving alone. Obviously varies with the tyre brand and type. With the wheelbase fully forward the spring was on the soft side but with the extra preload became a bit harsh higher in the stroke. Two more links added when i changed the gearing and the extra leverage has allowed a heavier spring rate with less preload which feels way smoother through the stroke. Did it need all of this doing ? Nah, but there's something satisfying about farkling and seeing what does and doesn't work 😎

Moneywise the free tailtidy and battery has the best money to weight ratio, next easy and cheap step is the riders waist and training. Good stuff as always man! 👍

Some throw the gas tank away and mount a 2.5 gallon tank. They want their 890 to be a 450. Gotta lose over 200lbs to make it happen. I did the 525 to 520 chain swap on my DR650, even on that 35HP bike the smaller chain wore out in 10K miles at most, on a high dollar chain.
