Very good question! I had an iPad and an external drive. Moved videos from cameras to iPad, then iPad to drive. 1TB drive was not enough for this trip if shooting in 4K with 3 cameras (2 DJIs and 1 iPhone). Also emptied the iPhone every night to the same drive. Quite time consuming, I'm happy the iPad and the drive are very fast. The cameras not so much, but decent. Good cables are mandatory. Hope this clarifies some things, cheers!

You are pretty confident in that fender mount, the CRFs have quite alot of vibration. I've had quite a few plastic GoPro mounts fail in me along the time, in Turkey I almost lost the brand new Insta 360 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGnZg2eoqbVml80si=YEiPqWP3ajhEfBPC&t=194 I only trust the alu RAM mounts from then on. The sound setup is pretty neat. Thank you for the video!

With great confidence comes great irresponsibility :) I've never had a plastic mount fail me yet, but I have had the adhesive fail, that's true. My helmet cam has an extra security string attached. I did think about adding one to the fender at first, which would pretty much solve the issue. But I'll admit it slipped my mind afterwards, during the trip. Happy travels!

I couldn't recommend these types of practice runs enough. I remember purposefully disengaging the rear wheel ABS for the first time in Taijikistan. The roads were nice and predictable, had quite some fun. Then I forgot about it and ended up in a spectacular crash... a combination of sand and deep roots, target fixation and panic braking. Hopefully it ended up with a good experience and no damage on the (bulletproof) KTM 1190. Keep practicing! :D

Very nice! Un segment TET foarte placut. Avand un R1200GS cam fug de nisip si noroi :)) Ce autonomie/consum ai la CRF? Eu ma gandesc sa imi cumpar modelul rally la anu' si ma intereseaza printre altele autonomia/consum, suspensiile si daca ti se pare underpowered !
@kitty.mototor
@kitty.mototor 2 ай бұрын
Salut! CRF-ul consumă 3-3,2 L/100 km. Din păcate are un rezervor de 7 L. Pe mine nu mă deranjează, dar e de luat în calcul. Mulți se plâng de suspensii moi. Eu nu mă plâng, dar da, sunt moi. Nu car bagaje multe cu ea. Cu puterea... Hmm, dacă vii de pe un 1250 o să se simtă tare ciudat :) Să zicem așa: nu prea o să intri în depășiri la 110 și nu riști să faci un wheelie din greșeală. Dar cântărește doar 150 kg. Ca idee, am mers o zi pe un 300L și am simțit un mic boost de putere și suspensie pe spate reglată altfel. Happy riding!

Cele mai naspa trante le-am luat cand am pierdut fata, fie pe noroi, iarba, etc. In alta ordine de idei, fain c-ai curaj sa faci TET-ul de unul singur, dar ai vre-un InReach cu tine sau ceva in caz de probleme?

Salut! Cel de pe spate are acum 17.000. Mai are viață în el cel putin 3 - 4.000 km, după calculele mele. Apoi nu știu cu ce o să-l înlocuiesc. Pe față am un Dunlop Trailmax cu acxeeași vârstă. Mai merge și el. Dar da, periculos alunecatul pe față. Nu am un sistem de backup pentru mers solo, doar încerc să nu mă pun singur în situații prea riscante. Dacă aș avea cu cine, aș prefera să merg cu oameni, dar nu prea găsesc doritori, mai ales în timpul săptămânii sau în afara perioadelor de concediu. Dar mai caut :)

They seem to share a lot of their properties with grease so, yeah, maybe they're a good alternative. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Hi, I think I will buy crf250 rally this week and I am little worried about ergonomics. How tall are you? I am 187cm and 110kg, so suspension update is must and bar risers as well. This little beast looks awesome so I hope that it will be fit for me.
@kitty.mototor
@kitty.mototor 5 ай бұрын
For a big boy like you, the stock suspension on my CRF will be pretty soft. It goes down a lot when I sit on it. A lot of people comment that it's too soft, I find it just fine, but I weighed between 72 and 80 kg while riding it. I would describe the feel as "elastic". If you plan to put any luggage on it, I also think you would benefit from a suspension upgrade (but cannot recommend anything in particular). As far as the bar risers go, hmm, yeah. I am 181 cm tall and the bike feels comfortable to me, but I do wish the position was slightly more upright when I'm standing on the pegs. I feel like I'm leaning too much on the bars. I've never ridden the rally version, I suspect the geometry is quite similar, but yeah, I think you would benefit from those upgrades. Other than that, I really like the bike and it seems to do everything I want: - decent on highways (but not recommended for many hours) - very capable off road (but not a lot of power available) - light (so great to pick up or carry minimal luggage with it) - flexible (I did TET segments but I also commute on it in a crowded city) Hope this helps with your decision! I've never regretted mine :)
