Budget Adventures
Добавлен 18 мар 2010
Join me here and on InstaGram (@yotahusky) as I venture out into the forests and fire trails to get away from every day office life. My name is Chris and like many of you I have a tight budget and can't spend heaps of money on expensive vehicle upgrades etc. I'm here to tell you that you don't need to spend a lot to have loads of fun. I'm also a big guy so I'll try to provide insights when I can for Gear and Accessories that fit larger frames.
Check out your local state and federal parks, keep some good tires on your 4wd and if you get brave, invest in a chinese dual-sport motorcycle for less than most riding lawnmowers cost.
Make time for the things you enjoy and for the ones you love because time is the one thing you'll never get back.

I was just waiting to turn left and suddenly a moron caused this mess. I began backpedaling and it kept me from being under the truck. I’m ok just bruised and the bike is ok just minor scrapes. Just another reminder that no matter how safe of a rider you are, it won't stop other people from being dumb. #motorcycle #motorcyclelife #motorcycleawareness

Just doing my daily commute except on 2 wheels! The Burgman 650 is an excellent vehicle for this. I wish Suzuki had not discontinued them!

While visiting Pensacola, FL with friends I went on my first group ride! We were a motley crew of vehicles. I was on my DR650, my friends were on a Burgman 400 and a Vespa 300 SuperSport. We had a blast in spite of the heat! Cameras used were Gopro Hero 5 Session (rear view), Insta360 Go2 (rider view of me), 2x DJI Action 2 (helmet cam on me and my friend Marc on the Burgman) Music by Movovi App.
Installing a new Seat Concepts Seat on a Suzuki DR650

Finally received my SeatConcepts Commuter seat for my DR650. This is a quick video of how to swap out the seat. Most of these steps are useful for accessing the electronics of the bike, the battery, the bolts that hold on the fuel tank. Music by Bensound.com

Torque settings 🤔😊
Great video! Thanks for taking me on the ride!
Nice ride on the hot rod
No hole in the skidplate for an oilchange?
Bike needs 3.7 quarts of oil.
thank you so much. so clear and detail abundant
Brilliant. How did you know the service reset trick?
Hey man what are the rear bags you’re running? Thanks!
Nelson Rigg Adventure Delux bags! They were awesome and survived a few drops without issue!
Awesome thanks for the reply !
Great video! I have my center stand sitting in my garage because Suzuki’s instructions say to ‘remove footrests’ but it seems quite a bit more involved than just unscrewing a few bolts. I’d love to see a tutorial video on what all you removed to put the center stand on!
The most difficult part of that install was getting the springs installed. As far as what has to come off you’re correct the foot pegs do have to be removed but they’re very easy to do. The biggest thing is remembering the kickstand also has to come off to give access so you have to support the bike another way
Don't you ruin your warranty if you don't have an authorized shop do the specified oil changes?
Not that I know of. It’s pretty obvious if a machine has been abused or not maintained so that’s when that kind of thing would come up. I do my own maintenance on all of my vehicles mostly because I want to know the vehicle better and understand how it works
Where did you get your turn signals?
They use a ridiculous amount of bubble wrap and place the seat upside down for the guys who open the box with a machete 😅
After a 30 minute ride on my 2024… I ordered a new seat… Can’t wait for it to get here!!!
Good tutorial. For the 800 SE the service is the same?
Looks like a nice ride although a bit damp
Looks like Gwinnett County. People can’t drive over there. Too crowded now. Live in California now.
It was over in west Cobb county but I think the “can’t drive” sentiment is universal lol
Hey mate! Would it be okay to use it in compilation? Full credited ofc!
Go ahead!
So there are mainly 2 types of seats Commuter & Comfort. Commuter is wider, was this the reason you purchased it, or any other reasons for your choice.
Yes for me one of the main drawbacks of the oem seat is how narrow it is. The commuter was much more comfortable on long rides but still narrow enough at the front that standing up wasnt an issue.
I have the exact same bike and just fyi the manual say to do chain adjustments on the side stand..a center stand is good though for flat repairs
But the chain play is the same on centre stand and side stand. Tightening the chain on the side stand with the center stand on a motorcycle is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
On some bikes there's a lot of difference between side and centre strand
Glad you're OK. What windscreen did you upgrade to?
I actually upgraded to the Puig tall screen. I was out riding that day 😊planning to film for a review when this happened. Review is on the way!
Thanks for the tutorial. I am doing the first oil change on my 800 DE Adventyre today.
Hope it helps! These bikes are so easy to maintain I love it.
Hi! Hope you're doing well! Could I feature your video on our pages? Credit included :)
Go ahead!
Lucky man!! Stay safe! 🙏✌🏻
Thanks mate good video. Just subbed
New subscriber here, congrats on your new DE; I'm a new owner (not the adventure model), too, about 1300 miles now. I had the dealer do the 1st service around 575 miles, but I will be doing my own in the future, so thank you for this video.
Awesome! Thank you!
Nice work, subbed
Much appreciated!
Went on a 1 hr ride today on my 2021 DR. that was long enough for my rear to get sore. The stock seat looks cool but I am now looking at replacement options. Thanks for this video.
it really changes the comfort of the bike a lot. I did several 2hr + rides on it after getting the commuter seat plus commuting to work, massive difference.
where can i buy that exact fan an how much is it?
unfortunately these are hard to find. The one I got came from www.ktmworld.com/ they also had some hard-to-find screws that were missing off the skid plate and airbox when I got the bike
pleasurable video to watch, learned a lot sith your calm demeanor. Thanks
Hey, bought that rack this week and I dont see to be able to fit the front screws? also u used the spacers? thank
The rack I received was slightly bent and I had trouble with the front screws too. Ultimately what I did was put the handles back on and then used the spacer that fit best to fill the gap. I still had to compress it slightly to get it to fit though.
Great ride no traffic
Hello, where did you get the new replacement petcock from ? great video ! very helpful . Thank you
I ended up ordering a lot of my small parts from www.ktmworld.com/ including the petcock and some various screws in the airbox and skid plate that were missing when I got the bike.
Is it a lower seat?
No but they do offer a lower one. I'm a tall guy so it was the regular one.
@@BudgetAdventures I got a lower seat and you may have to lower the foot pegs. Unless you are a blacksmith the lowered brake petal cost me $70.
My aftermarket seat is three times more padded than purchase. For I-5 ride from Canada and two hours south of San Francisco. That includes field, river banking, plus other non-tracked interests. And the I-5 return journey. With Suzuki issued or other less comfy buttock support I have to use just about every Interstate rest stop or risk a blistering case of Monkey-butt.
Can a passenger still fit on the back for a short ride?
I have a 2000 just like this with only the center stand which i wish I had a side stand, I can't seem to find a side stand any where, any help would be appreciated, thanks.
www.ktmworld.com/ is a great resource for OE parts for these bikes!
Great information, thanks. I like the way you compared both by sitting on it.
Just bought a DR this weekend! Have already fallen in love with it 😍 What kind of windshield do you have installed on yours?
The windshield I got was the Parabellum windscreen at parabellum.com/

Looks good, and we had lots of fun
this swap video was really really helpful in setting up my brozz. pls subscribe to my channel for ride videos+fresh beats/music! ruclips.net/channel/UCioIVsHfOP4hX2uPxxQ1oHQ
Looks much better 👌 you don't happen to have a link for that seat do you?
Sure! I got mine directly from seatconcepts.com/ just put in your bike info and it will show you the seats they make for yours.
Just got my Commuter seat. How do you like it? Nice bike! 👍
Honestly I love it. Right after making this video I took the bike on a 100 mile trip and the seat was a game-changer. Long rides are easy and no longer leave me feeling so fatigued.
Very nice! I find it interesting that our side panels are different. Mine doesn't have that front hook hole thing. Chers
Oh cool! So maybe it is a generational change? My bike is a 2022. I would be surprised if it was specific to geographic regions.
the bike sits low to begin with. smaller wheels AND smaller shock, maybe?
Also, they're not origional KTM indicators, that's why they've snapped; the KTM ones are super flexible plastic
I have a 2001 LC4 I bought new. The turn signals are the same as on Chris's. As the bike ages the rubber hardens and then they snap with just a bit of force. All 4 of mine need replacing now.
She's in lovely condition!!! I have the same model but 2001, they are fantastic for off reading and not even that bad for long distance riding. I'm seriously going to follow this channel!!
Great bike! I just bought a KTM 625 as a winter project. Looks alost identical to you bike
Seems like KTM doesn't change things too often. The biggest difference I've seen is in the newer bikes the rear brake and chain/sprocket swap sides. Chain is on my right but newer bikes its on the left side of the bike.
@@BudgetAdventures I’ve noticed that as well. After 05 they got heavier and dual exhaust as well. My 625 was sold with a small fuel tank and down tuned here in Sweden as an entry level bike. However, If you remove the throttle stop in the carburetor you immediately get 50hk..! 🎉 I think the 640 has a cush drive. That is something I’m missing on my 625
Nice video. Is that original exhaust?
Yeah that’s one of the original exhaust. Apparently there were two different one but I don’t know what the difference was other than baffles in the muffler
@@BudgetAdventures thanx. Do you know how to remove the plastic from real tail light?
@@J-F01 the tail light lens fits up through the fender from the bottom. Once you detach the section I did to reach the turn signal wiring I believe the lens and tail light assembly are accessible too. One of the amazing things about these bikes is that sites like KTMworld.com have parts guided with exploded views of literally every part of the bike. Their diagrams are what I used as a make shift guide to figure out how things were out together
