I prefer my 990 for technical rides and tours because: - it’s been set up for that kind of riding. Crash protection, gearing, luggage etc - it’s a cheap bike. My 890 Rally cost 4x as much and I don’t want to damage it on these rides. 0” - fairly easy to maintain - It ‘s very capable and has a durable clutch
@@NonekingAdv thanks - I'm stuck on a few options for soft/loose sand. Looking at the Scorpion Rally/Anakee Wilds at the moment. No experience with Motoz (in the USA) :(
@@NonekingAdv Got it, thanks. Ill check them out! Unfortunately I'm in a weird spot where I have some very hard off road terrain (fine, deep sand), but in order to get there, it's 2 hours of highway.
this is the most intense adv trail ride i have ever seen . this is something else. i would love to trail ride africa but boy is it scary. i guess i will do asian instead.
Awesome riding and that sound 👍 Love to watch these videos with such different landscape from ours. Cool to see locals helping 🙌
Thanks for watching!

Indeed!😂
I have to come do a Swazi ride with you guys at some point. Looks amazing
For sure!!
Nice ride Canzius. What do you guys carry in your orange bags?
Thank you. Bags contain clothes etc for long weekend of riding
Nice video! Where do you find parts for the 990 and 950? Plastics, clutch, engine parts.
A few guys in SA sell used parts
Why do you prefer the 990 over everything.I have a choice of 990 or 1190 ,Which would you take. From western cape

I'd love to hear your opinion about tires for the 990 :)
Depends 100% on your application of the bike. MotoZ Desert HT rear and Mitas E13 front is my combo of choice for the riding I do with my bikes.

@@aka_pierre those are good 50/50 tyres, but if you’re doing offroad mostly, I would seriously consider MOTOZ
