Missed this! Sorry. ABS dongle is needed to avoid error codes in the dash. But it would work without, if the engine light wouldn’t bother you I guess ;) However, no guarantees- and I would invest in the dongle! (got mine from www.i2m.it - works great!)

Hey and thanks for the kind words! Here are the mirrors (Amazon Affiliate Link) amzn.to/43xdSaz Here is a cheaper alternative (Amazon Affiliate Link) amzn.to/3IRTkQy Here is the whole kit with the needed Adapters (sold by Rottweiler performance, no affiliate) shop.rottweilerperformance.com/quick-flip-mirror-mount-kit-arrow-kit/ And here are the adapters only (Rottweiler, no affiliate) shop.rottweilerperformance.com/quick-flip-mirror-mounts-mounts-only/ The mirrors in the video are from the Rottweiler kit (there hasn't been a cheap alternative when I bought them). If you decide to get the adapters only, please double check if they fit the mirror mounts. Hope this helps!

Hey! We're actually working on a community platform where we can share gps tracks (and a lot more). As this will take a bit more time, please contact me via DM on Instagram (@rolandmeents), I'll happily share some tips with you!

@hallohallo4652 Hey there! Yes, we're all german, but I stick to english, as this might help others too: The tools used are from EASTBOUND, a british company. They offer motorcycle specific tool sets and more: eastbound.shop/de/product-categorie/tire-tools-tire-levers-bead-breaker-axle-nut-wrenches/ I can also highly recommend DESERTFOX as an alternative: desertfox.bike/motorcycle-tool-kits/ Hope that helps!

Thanks a lot!

Oh yes! Damn ;) Fixed it, thanks for pointing it out

🙏🏽 on it!

Dafür hole ich mir von euch aber vorher eine schriftliche Einverständniserklärung ;)

Hey Simon! Thanks, good to actually be back! And there's definitely more cool stuff coming ;)

It wasn't a direct "swap". I sold the Husky cause 99% of the time I rode alone. The Triumph Scrambler I already had was the better bike for me at that time. I met my offroad riding buddies one or two years later, and at that time we all decided to get ourself Teneres.

@@WilderMinds okay understand so nothing against the 701 itself. I'm asking because there is a 2017 701 with the kit 701 (but not as nice built as yours, missing the Scotts for example) for sale and I'm thinking about getting it. I'm planning on trips driving the TET Finland and mostly just exploring rock roads (and sometimes going to more extreme offroad areas). After your experience, would you recommend the 701 + kit 701 for that? Could you kind of keep up with enduros and mx bikes in the rough stuff?

I'm still a big fan of the 701 and kit690 and would always recommend it, if that's what you're after. For myself, I've got to say that I enjoy the T7 a bit more. I don't live in offroad paradise and most of the time riding includes some longer pavement stretches. The T7 engine is awesome for what I use the bike for, and after some improvements it isn't that heavy anymore and feels great. It's still not as light and nimble as the 701, but capable of stuff beyond my riding skills ;) But IF I would swap it for a lighter bike one day, I think I'd go for a 450/501. To really keep up with Enduros / MX bikes a 701 Rally build might be too heavy. I rode with some Enduro guys and sometimes it's been tough work where these guys definitely had more fun than me. I think the "one bike does it all" motorcycle doesn't exist in this case. If I would be in your situation, I think I would consider a 501. With a nav tower maybe, but if you really want to keep up with Enduros etc. I'd skip the extra front tanks.

@@WilderMinds that sounds like solid advice, thank you! If I want, I can barely touch pavement where I live, but you are right maybe the extra tanks are too unwieldy. I plan to ride some in wilderness areas, but 250-300km range should be enough there.

You're welcome! In the end it's personal choice. From what I've heard a 501/450 would be my weapon of choice, but in the end it all comes down to what YOU want to ride! If sitting in the saddle of a fully kitted out 701 makes you more happy then squeezing out the max. performance of a smaller bike, then that's what you should go after. Have fun riding, that's what it's all about.

That’s for sure! 8 days left

Hey man, great to see folks from the "old times" still being around! Husky vs. Tenere wasn't a direct "swap". I sold the Husky cause 99% of the time I rode alone. The Triumph Scrambler I already had was the better bike for me at that time. I met my offroad riding buddies one or two years later, and at that time we all decided to get ourself Teneres. Pretty funny story, cause we met, decided to go on a trip together, booked boat tickets to the canaries AND bought the bikes - all within 1 1/2 weeks. But I'll cover this in a video later this year. Already working on it! About weight: The Tenere IS heavier, BUT: After some pretty big mods (ABS delete, single brake and a lot more) it's actually not that far from the fully kitted out Husky anymore. For now it's an awesome bike, and who knows, maybe there will be a real Rallybike in the garage one day... ;)

I’m on it! There’s so much awesome stuff in the making, can’t wait to share it!

Good to see you again mate 🔥🤟😃 looking forward to all the new content 🙏

Thanks! Still thinking about continuing. There's still terabytes of footage on my hard drives. The tools are nothing special and I don't stick to one brand. Wouldn't get the cheapest stuff, but for private use the high end tools are overkill. We've got a tool shop around where I got the bike lift (Powerplustools), but I don't know if the brand is available internationally

@@WilderMinds thanks! I hope you can find the time to upload some more videos!

We’re back! Thanks for your patience ;) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGSlk5-fap2XapIsi=Apqtu4uplzGTcag_

@@WilderMinds nice !

Hey, I know I'm late but maybe it still helps: Yes, the vibration was reduced incredibly! I loved it. The Scotts is a great addition too. The most noticeable (for me) was on sand. I'm running a T700 meanwhile and got a Scotts on there too. I wouldn't want to miss it.

I love it! Have you ever tried it with a steering damper?

Hey Dale! I never did a wiring video, but I guess (and hope) meanwhile you’ve got your bike and everything up and running?

@@WilderMinds yup got it November all good I’m actually going off road this weekend for the first time on it can’t wait thanks for replying take care out there 🏍️👍

Have fun with it! 💪🏼 mine is gone and swapped for a T7, so there will be no more videos about the 701. But if you’re into bikes in general, the channel will have a comeback soon!!

@@WilderMinds I’m a bike nut have three now lol (don’t tell my wife lol) , I’m still subscribed as I follow lots of t7 content it was very close on which I went for ,enjoy your riding bud 🎉🏍️👍

Hey Joe, sorry can’t help here. Hope meanwhile you’ve found what you need!

Hey Matt! Danke dir. Der Zeitaufwand war am Ende zu groß, aber mal sehen, vielleicht kommt wieder was. ;)

@@WilderMinds Kann ich nachvollziehen.. ein Update des Blogs wäre aber mega! Ich bin gerade dabei den Umbau meiner Husky 701 zu planen.. 😬

Hi! Sorry but got no idea. Also sold the bike a longer time ago and went the T7 route

Well, he did say he is German so it’s a safe bet English isn’t his first language. Sometimes people appreciate being corrected, other times not.

The correction is valuable to all who read it. The poor German learned the bad English. Germans are precise, so I'm sure he appreciated it.

I do indeed ;) So thanks @egret1657. Going to correct at least the title

Hey there! I’m “a bit” late - sorry. The exhaust was a MIVV - and it was quite loud ;) Cool for Rallies, a bit too much for adventure riding.

Haven’t been online for too long - thanks for the tip, even if I’m late ;)

Thanks for the kind words! In the end it has been too time consuming back when I did this. Dayjob and stuff, we all know the struggle. BUT: The channel will be back pretty soon! Working on it. Hope you’re still here ;)

Yep, I like the shotgun look more too! A mod I’d wanted to do for years… Maybe it’s time for it ;)

Can u explain please. Also is there a way of by passing the clutch switch if that becomes faulty. Thank j 2021 701 enduro

yep, and the color grading is bad, and overall theres a lot better and more informational vids about the PCV on KZbin... This video is more then 2 years old, and editing is constant learning. At that time this was what I thought would be cool, today I would change a lot. But it is what it is ;)
