I like reading the comments. Something to note ... Silicone Spray: Please go back to the first video and watch the 6 or 7 episodes on this bike / build to see the beating the Pirelli Scorpion Rally copped. They tyre itself is irrelevant, the relevance is that over those 1500km, the tyre endured race starts, jumps, square-edges, rocks, ruts, 4th gear power slides and high-speed tarmac with luggage. I fitted that Pirelli Scorpion Rally exactly the same way I fitted this Pirelli Scorpion Rally ... soaked in Silicone spray. No rim lock. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKLJoYejrteApZY

I've been doing the silicon treatment since I saw your tutorial a couple years ago. Soooo much easier and yes, silicon is good for rubber. Only one question: I've never taken the chance of aerosol around the rotor. Do you bother/worry about that are just give a quick wipe with some alcohol?

Some tips I learned from working in a tire shop for almost a decade. Lube, lube, lube. Make that bead is as slick as possible for mounting and dismounting. A good non-water based lube when you mount the tire will make it easier to dismount when the time comes. Don't use soap and water. Makes it easy at first but can fuse the bead to the wheel when it dries. When you mount the tire be sure to end at the valve stem, this will help prevent tearing the tube as well. Leave the valve stem out the first time you inflate it, this massively helps seat the beads. Once the bead is seated all round, inflate and deflate the tube a few times with the valve out. This will help in seating so you don't have to leave it at a high pressure for a few days (though still good advice on tubes). If you don't have silicon spray for the tube baby powder will help with tube life as well. Changing tires is something all adventurist should be versed in so I hope this advise helps at least one person.

I think, its a good way to chafe and wear out an expensive sleeping bag. Putting a 300.00 bag in with other stuff as padding? No, I dont think so. I can see how its functional but it could ruin a bag for sure. I put it in the smallest stuff sack it can fit in, and it goes really small, like the size of a big softball.

@ubatubaable 3 ай бұрын
For me keeping the sleeping bag dry is one of the most critical things you can do. I always double wrap mine water tight both times that way if the outer one gets ripped the inner is still protected so I’d be concerned with this method. Maybe okay in the desert but not for wet countries.

I love seeing what people carry and how they carry it. The tip about not packing a sleeping bag into a compression sack that won't fit anywhere and instead to pack it around the other odd shapes is gold. I'm amazed that you carry an additional 32 liters of fuel. That's a huge desert crossing. My little G310GS has an 11 liter tank which is half what an ADV bike should have. I carry two spare liters. I'll need a large fuel bladder if I venture farther off the beaten path. I carry up to 6 liters of water, though. I didn't see where you carry your water. I particularly like seeing what tools people carry, even though it's very bike specific. I carry short ball end hex keys but I just added a long 5 mm hex key because there are some screws the short arm hex key won't reach but there are also some screws that need the short hex key because there isn't space for the longer hex key. I'm an electrical engineer, so I carry a small digital multimeter. 🙂 I prefer an alcohol stove. They have no moving parts or small jets, so they're very reliable and completely silent, but the main reason I use alcohol when moto camping is that I can buy yellow bottles of HEET fuel additive on the road, almost anywhere, and it's inexpensive methyl alcohol. The isobutane canisters are convenient to use but not so easy to find when I travel.

Great video. Small tip: always take some nitrile gloves with you. Keeps your hands clean while wrenching on the road. Can also be used in nasty weather. Carry them under your motorcycle gloves, helping to keep your hands warm. Plus it protects from all the toxins used In engineering. Read the SDS of the product for more information.

For the T7 I added a JIS Phillips socket to use on the T-Handle for all the screws with a dot like the brake fluid reservoir. I also use fuel bladders and use either a carbineer or a ladder strap to hang it from my bars when refilling at the fuel station. I also replaced my valve caps with ones that have a core tool built in. Another great video, cheers!

Great stuff as usual!!! In my case, I would normally fit the fixed wheel on the bike (still with out air) before starting the engine and pumping with air, just in case the vibration makes the entire thing fall with out a wheel on... specially solo riding. I would inflate with the bike still suspended, but with the wheels fitted on to the bike. However, I never supported the bike on a tree, in my situations has always been on the side stand and some extra log I could find around to suspend either front or rear...

Hey Adam, recently found you and have been binge watching your film and videos. You're truly an inspirational person and incredible rider. I ride a KTM 1290 SAS that I've had from new since 2018 and have done a few big trips which have been the most breath taking trips I've ever done, but it's all been on tarmac. You've given me the itch to hit more dirt. I've just turned 38 and the only off-road riding I've done was as a teenager in flat fields when I was young. I love my 2018 SAS, it's been my dream bike for years, but it's obviously such a heavy bike to take off road when you haven't got the experience. I've been thinking of part exchanging it for a T7 but they aren't too far apart weight wise. But one is more capable that the other. I love travelling light when the misses isn't with me so the KTM wouldn't be too loaded up, much more like your style. And I've also never going to be riding as hard as you so the extra suspension length isn't really an issue in my eyes. Would you have any advice for someone like me? I've been thinking of just banging some spoked wheels and dirt tyres on there and just giving it a go. Because it's the bike I have and the bike I love and I'd hate to see her go! I do my own maintenance and have changed my own tyres previously so not shy of tinkering either. Love following your story. All the best to you and your family. All the best from the UK.

It's the place and sometimes the people not the machine. It's mainly a tool to get you there and back in one piece. Checking out the ADVWORX bags. I see a 20L Gen 2 set. Look great. The whole premise of throwing them across the seat and strapping them on is what I'm after. I ride multiple machines so universal mounting is really desirable. Safe travels.

Mate, I have ridden all over the world solo, including 23k in Oz.I have never had any problem breaking a bead with Motion Pro bead breaker levers which are made from alloy, and only measure 205 mm in length, and both together, only weigh a quarter of a kilo (.25). I also always carry a pair of Motion Pro Bead Buddy as well (weight for 2 even less at .22 Kilo) and will hold the tyre in the drop centre for you and halve the speed/effort of the job. NO I do NOT work for Motion Pro or anyone else ( actually I have never worked for anyone but myself because I am certain nobody would ever have employed me!). Now I go tubeless with either the Outex conversion or Kineo replacement wheels as in are fitted o my T7 World Raid. Much stronger rims than anybody else makes and unlike the "spoke to the outside of the rim BMW" type rims, these are "spoke mounted outside the top of the rim" and being built from 700 grade aircraft quality alloy are indestructible.

Do you bring longer levers to actually get the tire off the rim?

Agree, those shorty Motion Pro light weight bead breaker levers are all I take on a long run (packed inside a length of mountain bike tube), as once the tyre has been on the rim, and run it is then easier to get off. Just remember that if you have balanced the tyre then mark it so it goes back in the same spot.

quick tip, ive tested those heat shrink electrical "connectors" with the low heat solder and you can use a match to melt the solder and shrink the tubing. Definite supreme bush fix that may be a permanent fix.

Hey Adam, love your tool kit, looks like mine ...with the leftovers from other bikes...lol😉😉.. Story about the Inreach...I purchased mine a few years ago to keep my family happy and myself and friends safe....well the first time we rode with it the most horrible event happend...and our friend came off with serious cosequences. SOS deployed and A chopper flew in and saved his life...Life changing device right there.... i now also have the 700i for gps as well...Must have for all riders, my opinion anyway, thanks for the vids, love them,🤛👊✊

I carry mine low on the subframe...I cut an old mountain-bike tube to length to hold the levers tight and to protect the frame; I like the foam idea that Adam has though...i think i'll be 'upgrading' to the foam.

Adam thank you for such detailed information for those of us who want to ride more akin to your style!!! I am very grateful for the information you give us!!! I so much appreciate your honesty about adventure travel, the 'Bob and Marge' anecdotes rock!!! Also your honesty about how your bike should be packed and why is refreshing despite the 'Karens' that may try to throw shade at you. I have always been a minimalist in my travels around Central America and South America and Mexico, actually just in general. So I can appreciate your methods and means!!! Thank you!!!

One tip I have learned over the years is to multiuse EVERYTHING you take with you. For example I dont pack a ratched anymore. I have a set of matching sockets for my bike, in which I cut a slit. That allows me to use my tire levers as levers for the sockets. I have cut down wrenches and one extension pipe for it. I dont take any spare gas canister, because I always ride with a multi fuel stove anyway. The 500ml-1liter of gas that I have in that is enough to get me out of the worst places where I live. I have taken it so far that I did not bring any sleeping pad but instead slept on my motorcycle gear while I use my back protector as a seat when cooking. I even experimented with sleeping without any gear at all, but figured out that usually it is to cold for that where I live. Otherwise it would absolutely be possible if you are used to sleeping on the ground. Get creative. The less you take, the more you will enjoy the ride!

Adam's kit is good, it's got everything he needs & nothing he doesn't need. He's done a good job of arranging the tool kit so it packs flat (that tube for the sockets & driver bits is super nifty). The only items that I can think of being handy to include is a spoke spanner, a spare air cleaner element (depends on the conditions of the journey), a LED headlamp and perhaps a small saw that will cut metal & wood. A question for T7 experts; does Yamaha (or aftermarket) offer a centre stand for the bike?

Nice setup Adam. In addition to your tool kit I carry electrical wire and wago connectors. Also a small test light for any electrical issue. Wagos are a quick easy fix for electrical connections and ideal if your side stand switch goes out.

Very good video! Just a small personal preference would be to take 2 off m6/m8/m10 long bolts (150mm ish) and a junior hacksaw blade. You can cut the bolt to any length you want, use the bolt as a brace etc etc. The blade weighs almost nothing and it also means you have a metal cutting tool on board. A small personal preference but loved the video 😊

I have done my own rear on the tenere and ktm 950. I started using the motion pro bead breaker levers and find them excellent to break bead. Not cheap I use soap and water or tyre paste. Never taught of silicone spray and will do that from now on as makes perfect sense to install and keep the rubber long lasting
