it is awesome, we are going back for some more 👍🏻

Thank you for your comment, we don’t give in on big bikes. The truth is that we rode through tracks like this on KTM 950 Adventure bikes so Tenere feels pretty good out there 👍🏻

we do try to make it hard for ourselves 😉

Thanks buddy

Thanks buddy

I love how challenging it can be at certain sections

Suspension is awesome it saved me from crashing few times

@@HeavyEnduroAdventures nice trails! I noticed that you get a lot of front wheel deflection. Maybe play with the clickers to soften the front compression a bit. Are these the Boano 48mm forks with 295mm travel?

@@C_R_O_M________suspension is set well it’s just larger obstacles in slower runs once I fit the steering dampener it will take care of most of that to be fair. The forks are customised order fro T-tech suspension in UK with 265mm travel you can run all standard parts with that set and yes is 48mm

@@HeavyEnduroAdventures thanks for the tip (T-tech suspension). P.S. Went to their site but couldn't find any related product (just internal cartridges) for the forks? Were those 48s a special order? Update: never mind, found them on FB and your post. I still think that there's a lot of room for improvement for that front and the way it deflects your front wheel. Maybe the springs you put for your weight at the front are too hard. I am a HW (and VERY tall 206m) at 120kgs and what I found working with my 500EXC is STANDARD springs for the front and a harder spring rear for my weight (with forks at the lower position in the triple clamp - the front in the most upright position). When heavy/tall riders sit on the seat the bike changes geometry and a softer front makes all the difference in the world when you are riding trails like those in the video. Standing up is a little different but you are better off with a softer front in the hard than a super stiff one. Unless you are in a MX track and want to jump the bike all the time which I don't think is a plausible scenario. Soften your front and see how it goes.

@@C_R_O_M________front is actually quite plush as it’s 6.0 spring its a bit of a compromise for me it’s kind of set to accommodate the all terrain rather then me playing with clickers. I am quite guilty of “set and forget” when it goes down to suspension 😅

Thanks buddy

Thanks buddy 👍🏻

It’s definitely challenging 😉

Thanks for the tip!

I don’t usually record from a chest mount but after changing helmets that’s the only thing I had available, thanks for pointing it out 👍🏻

Thanks buddy

@@KiqueRock71 This is from north of Portugal heading south we finished in Serra de Estrela. Thanks

@@HeavyEnduroAdventures this is just what we are going to do. Thank you!

@@KiqueRock71 Its not easy but if you are on a bigger bike its a great challenge, enjoy the ride.

That was 100% us 😅 Portugal is great we go like challenges and that was one of the hardest ones on that trip

@@HeavyEnduroAdventures we rode past you two on the tarmac! We got stuck on that section for 2 hours, I dropped the bike badly, water ended, the heat was too much.. it really was hard but I'm happy I did it! I learned that whenever there's a mark on the track saying it is hard, it's true 😂

@@Chuckytuh 3 guys on T7s ? I was happy that as well as camel back we had gallon bag of giant loop water bag

I was running mitas e09 and to be fair if the weather is dry you can probably get away with your tyres as there is plenty of grip available however if it gets wet it might not be so good. If you like tough trails Portugal definitely has a few of them 😉 Thanks

Already on the shelf waiting to be fitted 😉

this is where a steering damper really woulld shine i guess. but awesome riding anyways!

Heated grips have been fitted when I bought the bike as it was first proper trip I didn’t fit the steering dampener (I got one on the shelf) I wanted to see how bike behaved and make improvements from there 😉

We love it, hard technical riding that provides a smile on the face is always welcome 😁

@@HeavyEnduroAdventures haha i see, i will start with just gravel, getting my first bike this month, vstrom 800 :D good and safe riding!

Thanks buddy this is TET Portugal starting up north traveling south

Thanks buddy, Giant loop coyote is my main bag and a roll bag for camping gear plus couple of possibilities pouches

polisport sm fender I believe

oh those are sidis!

sidi crossfire 3 great boots Klim Dakar gear, Klim Krios pro helmet and Alpinestars body armour

950 is still in the garage but it’s going to get easier life she’s 20 years old this year 😅

Because why ride something so heavy 990, when you dont have too?

@@wraith511802003 tenere is not much lighter and in fact feels heavier when you ride it even to lift from the ground is easier to lift 950./990 I love mine 990 if you wana do hard enduro then none of them is the bike to do the job in my opinion I tour a lot and love Twisties so 990 for me always .

@@wraith511802003my 950 was on the diet it’s not too bad 😉

Thanks
