Dear neighbor, I had an identical Yamaha, even the same color, I rode it for eight seasons and was very satisfied. Currently, I ride a larger Yamaha XJ 900, it has a cardan shaft and this is a great advantage. This summer I plan to go to Bornholm. Greetings from Poland

I gotta say i really admire what you're doing, travelling on a budget and proving that you don't need brand new from factory bmw GS and crew with support truck to go along. Just go there, have fun, and remember that every brake down makes for a great story later. And learning mechanic skill on your own machine is a great way to really bond with it so after you come back just fix it yourself, there is a lot of tutorials on KZbin. Looking forward to next videos in Iceland!

Mein beileid. Tatsächlich hab ich noch eine zweite xj die ich auch von einer Witwe gekauft hab. Das Motorrad in dem Video ist ebenfalls von jemand der aufgrund von hohem Alter an einer Gehbehinderung leidet. Ist irgendwie traurig das die Vorbesitzer von diesem Model quasi nach und nach in dieses Alter kommen. Aber die ganzen gut gepflegten Yamaha xj 600 oft von erst Besitzern bleiben halt für einen sehr schmalen Preis über

The reason I watch your adventures is because you are doing them on a road bike. My wife and I do the same on our naked road bikes, with dual sport tyres. We run the Pirelli Scorpion STRs which have great grip on dirt and gravel roads, yet are not noisy on the highway and are rated for high speed. Like they say - _"The best adventure bike, is the one you already have!"_

Great! A New adventure! Ugh.. old motorcycles have something of their own, their own charm, their own specific style and feeling, but if problems like this appear and you can't rely on them when you get to be completely alone on the road that's really really problematic. Hope you'll not encounter problems anymore and, who knows, maybe when you'll have a bit more money you can invest in a newer/better bike. Also for another piece of feedback, great thumbnails and the font you're using to create them is great! :))

You have a very interesting show-concept there. I like it very much! Keep going! On the other hand the Divii desirves a dignified treatment, as she is a very faithful and reliable motorcycle. Just driving without caring enough to learn more about her and maintain her respectively is not very mature. I used to treat my firs car like that (some dacades ago). My dad was very dissapointed back then. I now can understand why. The oil lamp on (many) Yamaha motorcycles is not a signal for a lack of oil pressure. It signals low oil level. This can happen, if you accelerate for an extendet period of time, or drive uphill. The sensor sits at the front and when all oil is at the back, it lights up. If there is enough (not too much!) oil in the sight glas, when the motorcycle is off, and it dissapears, when you turn the motor on, the oil pump is most likely ok. If you have too much oil in it for too long, this causes overpressure and can damage several parts. The first Diva models had no fuel filter. If you travel to different countries, and your Diva doesen'tr have one, you need to install one. Derusting and coating your gas tank can cost less than 30 Euros. A repair kit for your fuel tap (or an after marke one) costs not more than 20-30 Euro. Overhauling your carburator would cost not more than 10 Euro (for carburateor cleaning spray). You do not need any special tools for all this. If you invest 200 Euro in this bike, get to know it and maintain it correctly, it can run for ever and you would be able to really enjoy your adventures, without any concern about the bike. Good luck!

Thank you. I get your point. Well the xj 600 is a kind of everything bike. that came in a naked, half fared and fully fared option. I would refer to the 600cc bikes like the r6 or FZR as Supersports. But there are also people who say those are not supersports. So this is kind of a brought spectrum where people see the bikes.

@@FreeMilesMC i'm from Latvia. I suppose that those sizes on dirt tires are not very popular for that kind of tires, that's why nobody keeps them in stock... Street bikes on dirt tires is not something you see every day. 😃

Natürlich war auch vor Dir schon jemanden mit einer Super Sportmaschine einer Yamaha R6in Island. Und zwar die Irene Siedler von heels on Wheels. Dazu gibt es auch auf Pegaso Reisen ein schönen potcast. Bist also nicht der erste. Und vor 10 Jahren ist schon ein Engländer komplett um die Welt auf einer Suzuki GSXR 1000R . Bist also wie Du sieht nicht der erste. Aber in einer großen Minderheit. Und ganz egal welches Bike, Hauptsache man macht es .

Your films are very good quality and entertaining so if you work hard you will make it I believe. I won't miss any of itchy boots videos and yours, so investing for your own business is smart!

Yes you are Right. But to be complety Transparent this Channel is barley making any Money. So I still need to growth the Channel First a bit more. But i always try to invest in to the Channel when it comes to Camera Equipment. Literally my whole normal 9-5 paycheck and the few bucks from KZbin are in this channel😂.

The problem with ADVs is the term. Tenere is an ADV. Africa Twin is ADV. Transalp 700 is ADV. Those are totally not made for same tasks. And at the end of the day, you can have excellent adventure on Honda Cub. So what does this term means? My answer is - travelling tall grass with passenger. Adventure bike term must end, it's close to idiotic and does not mean anything.
