ADV Sport Bike - S1000 XR Off Road!

[@DukeOfDC]

That is so damn badass. S1000XR's need to have a 'badass offroad' option coming out of BMW factory haha.

[@PeteV.53]

Nice to know that my XR is capable of doing the rough stuff (not so sure about the skill/talent of its owner though ... LOL) but I think I will stick to the blacktop as much as possible. I have had to do sections of graded gravel and clay dirt road while riding through the mountains near where I live and the OEM tyres were just ok. I will need new tyres soon and am thinking i might go to a 70:30 option so that I have a bit more security when i do hit the dirt.

[@davereinhart9933]

Well done AltRider!

[@AltRiderLLC]

Thanks man we do the best we can, we do love making these videos, even though they take a lot of time. we try to blend the cool with informative.

[@EnigmaMotoJournals]

Wow!! Nice mods proof the XR can go offroad like the GS

[@moulin680]

great job guys! Video and riding gear!

[@AMPJ08]

Funny is that you based it in the XR with the lowered suspension, was there a special reason for that? why not the normal one?

[@vaishaligujar199]

I really like the song and video used in alt riders video keep it up

[@NicChap]

Great bike mods!

I have a itching feeling BMW night make a S1000XR Enduro..... Lets all Hope ;)

[@lovelessissimo]

Still hoping...

Still hoping? 😂

amazing bike ride

[@AltRiderLLC]

Thanks ✌️

[@alexfournier6512]

Great vid! Reminds me of Squamish..

[@Sven2310]

Awesome vid good to see more great products coming from the Altrider crew ;) what size rear TCK80 is that? I'm sure they don't do a 190/55..

[@Sebastian.wrzesinski]

is it TKC80 tire on the wideo??

[@gocha68100]

Красота. Профессионально.

[@AltRiderLLC]

Спасибо, рад, что вам понравилось!

[@Fox18T]

Awesome! Great driver!

[@AltRiderLLC]

Thanks!

[@std290670]

hello, can you write me where you got your lower oil cooler protection "lower driving protection" from?

[@AltRiderLLC]

hello! Our oil cooler protection was a part we designed and manufactured, but unfortunately is no longer in production.

[@Backhurtsbad]

reaaaaaaaaaallyyyyyyyyyyyyy LOW GROund clearance !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@electric7487]

Because this is a road-oriented bike, not an off-road machine. Although it does do a surprisingly good job at going off-roading, much better than I expected.

[@Clungedoctor]

So basically he put a skid pan and some grippy tyres on.

[@texaslonestarrider]

Very Cool!

[@sebastienp9141]

Great video ✌️😎

[@AltRiderLLC]

Thanks for the visit

[@Sebastian.wrzesinski]

what size of rear tire is it??? I am trying to find 190/55 but not existing. Please recomend which tire you are using, thanks

[@AltRiderLLC]

It's been a long time since we've had this bike, sorry I can't remember the tire size

[@federaldelii]

With these off-road tyres what is your top speed limit? Secure top speed?

[@6122-e1y]

What's the black jacket make and model?... thanks.

[@AltRiderLLC]

Revit but its a discontinued model

[@ricardodanielrubio3868]

Good morning, could you guide me about the crash bar, its design under the headlight where it is attached, or how can I get a silmilar?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Unfortunately these are no longer made, and I am not sure if anyone else did bars for this bike.

[@jonasbaine3538]

You ride your xr offroad? How is it? A welder should be able to make custom crash bars if you show him the bike.

[@MrEmsos]

peccato, neanche un po' di musica della moto...it's a sin, only music and no music of the bike!

[@pilyomotoride7781]

The crashbar is out of stock. Is there anyway i can still order it here in the u.s

[@AltRiderLLC]

Nah sorry. Ebay but even then

[@nortondlcl]

Great stuff, But I'm keeping my s1000xr on the road.

[@tiagoxgarcia]

Someone knows what jacket he is wearing? Thanks

[@Clungedoctor]

Tiago Garcia stone island

[@Vlperine]

How did you guys turn off all electronic safety features?

[@AltRiderLLC]

This was quite a while ago, so we don't really remember. But it was pretty straight forward and a web search should give you all the results you need.

[@baxabuxa17]

Can you please tell me where to buy side bags?...

[@AltRiderLLC]

Mosko Moto is a popular option!

[@baxabuxa17]

@@AltRiderLLC thanks 🙏...

[@jonasbaine3538]

where can ANY skid plate be found?

[@AltRiderLLC]

Unfortunately we don't make a skid plate for this bike any longer, and I'm not sure where to recommend

[@jonasbaine3538]

@@AltRiderLLC You may be surprised how many people want a skid plate for S1000XR. The market is still there! Please consider it!!

[@LookattheBiggerPic]

...Umm, ADV with really spooky ground clearence, have to agree with Andrew M... Still, interesting, might stim BMW into a new ADV addition - and we would just hate that... In no way!

[@oceantri]

If I had that Bike I would mod it that same way, but with a slightly larger front tire and wheel.

[@dougiequick1]

old old post to reply to but now as even then my comment would still be "WHY??" There are plenty of bikes with similar power already set up for off-road so why bastardize such an expensive motorcycle spending even more money on it when it still is not going to be as properly focused as other choices?? A BMW GS or hey even a Multi Strada if you want to be a little more eccentric with your adventure riding that comes with a 19" front....

[@driftx2]

Does this have enough power for offroad?

[@AltRiderLLC]

While not an off-road bike per-say, it does have enough power to handle it.

[@allhardr0ck]

I want to trade in my LC GSA now...

[@sergioandre8759]

What boots use the bikers ? Thank you.

[@AltRiderLLC]

+Sérgio André It is the ICON 1000 Elsinore. I'll add the link to the video notes later today: www.rideicon.com/products/?productGroupId=198708

+AltRider Nice.

[@roman4394]

gread items, but very bad if you will buy this items and go over the links - Oops! Something went wrong. The page you were attempting to reach does not exist. if you search over the Website, you find nothing for the S1000XR

[@AltRiderLLC]

We haven't made parts for this bike for a while... Thanks for the notice, I've removed the links!

What song is that?

[@AltRiderLLC]

+Mike Cochran It is called "The Prophecy" by Tony Anderson. You can hear his other music here: www.musicbed.com/artists/tony-anderson/7054

[@defekticon]

+AltRider Cool Song!

[@1compaqedr8]

Basically a sportbike on stilts. Nice!

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Whole list of ADV bikes that would do better on the dirt than the XR. But not the same performance on the pavement. 17" front sure isn't optimal and dirt tire selection is very limited in sportbike sizes. i-4 with even firing order isn't the best for dirt traction either. I'd say 1290 Super Adventure R would give the XR a real run for the money overall. The S model would do as well on the pavement too.

[@franchinobernard2965]

Cut the music! I wanna hear the bike!

Quieter music - more motor sound please.

Thanks for the feedback, we are always trying to find the right balance.

[@dalehawkes1594]

This guy obviously has some mad skills off road average joe he is not great video 👍

[@chilangoson]

The MPG vs the GS (all R’s) aren’t even close. Not practical.

[@a5440]

I own an XR and had a GS and I get it, you're trying to create content, but the XR is for the street. The GS is much more capable in these conditions. However, cash spent ridiculously will buy you views.

[@modernlooks7041]

Im actually trying to decide I have a 2017 gs and theres a xr thats a good deal and thinking of switching I only realistically go 70 road 30 off so if the xr still can do the 30 im probably going to switch

[@reinhart482]

Modern Looks what did you get? I would get s1000xr. Gs feels massive. S1000xr probably easier to handle off-road and pick up alone.

[@dougiequick1]

Not sure exactly why but I seem to instantly loose respect for people who do burn outs on motorcycles ....or any vehicle for that matter. It just strikes me as utterly senseless and wasteful ....it demonstrates no real skill so all it is doing is destroying a tire and stinking the air up.....just dumb if you ask me....On the other hand a nice wheely or stoppy? Thumbs up!

[@AltRiderLLC]

To be fair... the tire owed us some money! HAHA... thanks for the comment!
