Re: The BMW G310GS thread.

Lee - looking at the photo of your bike vs. the one in the RR video, you have the silencer bracket bolted to the back of the footrest hanger, whereas RR have it bolted to the front.

It might be something as simple as that.

Re: BMW G310GS in Morocco

If anyone is considering the G310GS, I too have spent a lot of time and miles on one this year (you may have already seen my ride report here: https://www.adventurebikerider.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=47461) and generally the 'issues' I've noticed are much the same as Chris did - narrow stoc...

Re: Ot of talk about the tenere 700 but not seen much about this 450l rally

Look more closely... it's a full-power CRF450L with twin 10 litres tanks and a nav tower: https://adventuremotorcycle.com/news/crf450l-rally-concept Plenty of people compete just fine on a CRF450X with a 3rd party rally tank/fairing kit on it, Honda have basically done that for you - on a fully stre...

Re: Ot of talk about the tenere 700 but not seen much about this 450l rally

Yes, the 450L is only 26bhp in the EU to get around the Euro homologation rules... the rest of the world get the 45+bhp version, which I'm sure that Rally concept is built around. If it does ever become a production model, you can bet it ships with the full power ECU in a box too (like the 450L does...

Re: Ot of talk about the tenere 700 but not seen much about this 450l rally

To be fair, there are plenty of privateer rally riders who are using the current CRF450X as a platform, and it does very well. With the 450L being a fully homologated version of the X (for those markets where you can't register an 'enduro' version for the road), it makes a lot of sense to use the L ...

CB125X ' concept', no seriously... look closer...

Yep, you can accuse me of hypocrisy in starting a 'speculation' thread if you like - but following on from all the current EICMA madness, this little doozy popped up earlier today, and I want to be the one to put my hand up first and say - it's friggin' awesome! https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-D...

Re: New Tenere 700

I think it looks particularly good from this angle...

I'm surprised to see they kept the four separate headlights, I was certain they'd have replaced them with a one-piece plastic assembly for the production spec.
