Great video explanation. Givi makes all the boxes from Triump, BMW and the rest. I just ordered a set for my new 23 leftover Triump Tiger 1200 GT Explorer. I installed upper factory crash bars and had to loosen everything and then tighten in a sequence to not stress it.

I bought a used one as I like retro styled air cooled bikes. Its alright, looks nice and rides okay,with plenty of torque. It sounds nice with some decent pipes on it. Theres a few little things that irritate me about it though. It could really do with a sixth gear or taller 5th gear.No fuel gauge is a pain. Saddle removal is a fiddle with two allen bolts instead of being key operated. Front brake reservoir looks like a urine sample pot. No ABS. Stupid secondary air injection pipes makes spark plug removal a mission until you get rid of the SAI. None of the above a massive issue on their own but collectively, they add up to make me think I wont keep it forever. Nice bike but could be better for the money.

Really late to the party here but there isn't much info on the Bonneville Newchurch really. I think by 2015 these bikes were showing their age with hangovers from the early 2000s carbed models. I didn't even know it had a fast idle switch! It is interesting how much the Newchurch looks like a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 though, even down to the swept up exhausts rather than the standard Bonneville peashooters. Probably not the Bonneville for me overall, seems like it's worth going for a liquid cooled one instead.

Does the mounting hardware for the panniers come with the racks or with the panniers? I was thinking of getting racks from Mosko Moto to be sure they fit my soft cases but wanted to be sure I could also fit the Givi cases on the racks. So wanted to get an idea if the panniers have mounting hardware that I can then use to fit them on the racks from Mosko. Thanks.

Nice review. Here in OZ the 660 LAMS version is top of the learner range and holds its own on a motorway. Anything longer than 100KM without break is going to start to be a little uncomfortable seat wise but overall, as you said, a local, in this case nip to the shops and the beach with a half helmet is perfect.. not quite prepared to go the distance with storage but thats ok a fold up rucksack is enough for a few last minute items at the shops on the way back. Top bike even if the chain tensioner is a little rattly!

The channel is on a prolonged hiatus as no one is offering me any bikes to test, and I’ve nothing on my mind that I feel the need to vlog about. I’ve retired from track riding after selling the Gixer (for more than I paid for it..so bonus), as at 52 I’m starting to feel my age a bit plus I sold my car which was my towing work horse, and bought a small van that I converted into a stealth camper. I suppose I should knock a bit of an update vid together really, as quite a few things have happened over the last few years, so I’ll have a think 🤔

Nice review but why donyou have to ride on the oposite road on corners? Its not a racetrack, im a biker too and i dont understand how ignorant some other bikers can be. You dont own this streets just because youre on a sports bike. Just my 2c
@VeeFour Жыл бұрын
It’s not ignorance, and you are allowed by law (in the UK) to use all of the road if it is safe to do so. When you saw me ride on the opposite side of the road during a corner, what you didn’t see on the video was where my eyes are focused and that I was able to see far enough ahead through the corner to see that the road ahead was clear and free from other road users or hazards. In ALL cases when I ride, I am able to stop safely on my side of the road in a distance that I can see to be clear. These are fundamental safe riding practices, and I was taught how to use them legally and safely as part of my former professional life. My 2c in return

Thank you so much for this review! I don't know if you would've expected it to be useful for people 5 years later, but here we are. Tons of respectable information from a long time owner, and I also really like the down to earth point of view of the bike in general, and about the "lack" of some stuff that's on newer bikes. I've been riding bikes for 21 years now, but owned only sport bikes. I still have my Daytona 675 and I love it to death, I will keep it, but I started playing with the thought of getting into touring as well, and maybe ditching 4 wheels for the warm season and getting around on 2 wheels more. With the practicality and potential luggage space this bike offers for this price, I am more and more likely to buy a first generation Tiger 1200 next spring. The shaft drive is a must have for me, when I think of touring bikes, so that's a big plus as well. Having talked to a few owners recently, I am confident I will really like it. Thank you again!

Older but good video. I'm actually in the market now for a 2016 675 R. I could get the MT09 for about the same price and I test rode both. The Street Triple R is just so much better than the MT09, tactile build quality, handling and power delivery wise. You'd be silly to chose an MT09 over the Street Triple, if you can get both for about the same money. That said, I can't say anything about reliability.
@VeeFour Жыл бұрын
Errrm, I chose the MT09 (SP) over the Street 😁😉 Back in 2018 the SP and the RS where around the same money and as I said in other videos, it was a subjective choice between two amazing bikes. For me after doing back to back rides, I preferred the higher quality fit and finish, looks and mid-range power delivery of the Yamaha over the more sportier and better handling Triumph. It was a close run thing, and I’d have been happy on either, but I still own and love my MT 👍
@mementomori4972 Жыл бұрын
@@VeeFour Higher quality fit and finish? You're joking...right? Don't get me wrong. The MT09 is an amazing bike and I'm by no means a Triumph fanboy, but the fit and finish on those bikes are not even comparable. I'm a perfectionist by trade (a professional guitar maker) and the fit and finish on the Triumph was why the bike even came to my attention in the first place. I saw it on the street (they are not that common where I live) and was amazed by the attention to detail. I saw a ton of MT09s before and they look good but the tactile feel is just not what it is on the Triumph (675R!) I'm not talking about the 2018 765! Never saw that one in real live. I chose the Triumph despite my concerns about reliability because of how well put together it looks and feels. Every singe bolt on this bike is beautiful. Nothing looks like you could buy it in the next hardware store.

@@thomassorensen5983 I have the same bike! 2016 675R. I got it with only 3000km for a really good deal with one year of residual warranty. Looked basically brand new. The handling of the R is unbelievably good. It's extremely light and just inspires confidence. What I don't like about it, is that it physically gets very hot, even though the temp "gauge" is still in the regular range. I wasn't used to that, since I only had Hondas before. I searched some forums and asked my mechanic about it, but everyone assured my that this is perfectly normal with this bikes. Riding in the rain is therefore a bit of a challenge. It steams quite a lot then the rain hits the radiator and vaporizes. You also get very wet because the rear tire basically catapults the water onto your back.

@VeeFour Жыл бұрын
Thanks. I can only speak about my own bike and experiences, but I still own my Tiger and it is as good as the day I bought it. However, mine has only a little over 20k on the odometer after nearly 8 years, so isn’t a good comparison. The engine in my bike still feels like it has all the power that it left the factory with, and apart from a slight clutch release bearing rattle when idling in neutral (which is normal), it sounds tight and good. Overall the engine feels strong and has no external signs of wear and tear, but if you’re looking at one with 83k on the clock, then I’d expand your research to include a deep dive into the various online owner forums. Good luck and safe riding
