I for one was glad you got on the twin for a while and rode the piss out of it. But hot damn is it f'n sick seeing you wheelie a pumpkin once again (and brapin trails more). Glad you're enjoying the bike man. Turning cold up here again, and warm for you, looking forward to the vids you have coming to get me through winter.🍻

Haha cheers Damo 🤘 Hopefully the sic ninedy and I keep it rolling through your winter, getting harder to cope with the heat as I get older though 😂 I'll just make sure I don't stray too far from a) swimming holes and/or b) bars 😎🍻🍻🍻

I have the 21 690, bought as a commuter for my 30k round trip to work. Way more fun than my T7 ever was, much more versatile. On open trails it dominates.

totally agree, the 690 is really well suited to SE QLD forests and so much fun. But not that many out there in the bush these days? I sold mine a few months ago after 22,000 km.......really miss it. Will get another one again in the future. Cheers
@MVDBRКүн бұрын
Why'd you end up selling it mate?
@glossblack1098Күн бұрын
I traded the 690 in for a Norden 901 Expedition. Got a great trade price. I’ve Never owned a big ADV twin so thought it was time to try one. Before the 690 I had an FE 501. Absolutely loving the 901 for bigger ADV rides but I think the 690 suits this region better. Cheers
@karlpdoyle4 күн бұрын
Absolutely love your channel, your a legend. 100% agree with you on the 690, brings a smile to my face and gives you the confidence to take on more technical solo rides knowing you can get out of most situations. Fuel range is the only drawback, although a fuel bladder is an easy solution if you know your going to be tight. I've also got a 990 which is great for the longer, fast open country rides but bit of a hand full in the tight stuff.

Its the small field of view that makes the footage look much slower than it is. If you put the lens mod on the gopro and crank it to hyperview, it gives better speed perception as you can see the trees on rhe sides of the trail in the peripherals that your eyes can see (that other action cams don't), inturn giving you a true perspective of speed. I can tell you are hooking by the way the bike is carrying through the corners and the jolts your head is taking even though theres stabilisation is on.
@MVDBR3 күн бұрын
Yeah, this is true. However the flipside is the wider angle flattens out the hills more 😬 I need a wider FOV for the fast stuff and linear for the hill climbs, not that I have done much steep shit lately 🤔 Cheers man
