I can't remember the last time I watched a complete video on RUclips, without skipping some parts, well done my friend. Congratulations, you caught my attention.
Respect! Means a lot, because the audience retention stats paint a completely different picture these days.
KTM blew it when they didn't support Ewan and Charley for LWR. BMW took a risk and won in a massive way as sales figures show. I respect you for using the hard luggage but would, personally, go with soft panniers. Well-done, sir. And anyone who incorporates Vivaldi's Primavera for his music is a man of fine culture.
i own a 2007 990 adventure, it is the 8th and the best motorbike i've ever driven! i will never sell this one, it is pure joy🔥
I’m going to buy one this year, best adv bike ever🤟
Good investment!
The new look is a killer!
That was exciting to watch, thank you man.👌
I've seen a lot of video and photography of motorcycles and the like
But this work really really amazed me. It made me log in to RUclips and put a like and a comment. I also agree that bicycles nowadays are plastic and a lot of electronics and we miss the beautiful past and the memories it contains that cannot be forgotten. I am happy that I saw your adventures in the years 2005-2006.
I hope your new adventure is full of excitement and fun
Hahahaha this was so well made my friend 🙌🏻 The amount of details, great footage and narrative 🤩 Nice to see Janis again as well. Really well done! 🎥Thank you for this
Just doin’ what we love 🤓
@@ArvidsBaranovs It showes and this is what makes all the difference. 👏🏻
Thank you for coming to INDONESIA, we love you❤
Impossible to buy a new adv bike indeed (I've tried 😁)...
Now, let's not forget that the 950 adventure was a racing machine costing close to 15.000 € in 2003. But the money was in the lightness and the quality of the components, not the gadgets.
Well, I did buy a Yamaha, hence their dealer missing from the shopping section in this video 😂
Hehe Cool Video Guys! Enjoyed it, especially the Tea Ceremony and the Bike!
Glad you enjoyed it!

EXCELLENT....
BRAVO!
Super labs! 👍
awesome video mate! thank you!
Subscribed for Riga❤and the bike is 🔥🔥
Fantastic video keep up the great work very inspiring
Great story about a great bike! My old "Dicke Berta", a BMW F800GS from 2008, i would to change into an younger one from 2014. I 've bought the "younger one", but the old one I can't sell after 45000 km of travelling, riding, and "partnership". To much memorys.
Bravo, voilà un bon raisonnement.
En France on dirait "qu'importe le flacon pourvu qu'on ai l'ivresse"
Good luck for your voyage
Merci bien!
Great production, really enjoyed it. Looking forward to more!
More to come!
Sempre la più affascinante. Ancora competitiva. L'unica che ho avuto che ricomprerei domani.
Ļoti forš video!👍
Paldies! Kas ilgi tapa, tas labi tapa.
Отличный ролик! 👍🏻 Прекрасных путешествий! 🤝🤙🏻
I had an 07 950 Adv S. What a beast but painful to maintain. Great vid
Good job mate 😎🏍️✌🏻 Riding a bike with this much story must be a great feeling.
Must be like riding a museum on wheels.
Thank you to all the people involved in making this, I love the 950/990 look and design and plan on buying one soon. Your commitment to keeping the heritage of the bike really says a lot too, and you did a fantastic job of making it anew of sorts with a really slick look...now you've go me thinking about my dream bike 😉
Right on!
I've a 990...and yes I'm in love with her! Awesome job and video! Can't wait to see the next!
Super!
your motorbike looks so cool i love it
nothing to say! best trip i beleave 👍
Super! Sākumā loģiskāk šķistu Anda doma atstāt leģendāro moci muzejam, bet tad tas būtu mazliet skumji… Šī ir pareizā pieeja. Mocim jāturpina savas gaitas jaunās gādīgās rokās 👌🏻👌🏻
Vārds! ✊
Awesome reborn and video Guys! That bike really deserves new adventures. Happy Trails and See You out there 💪🤠🔥
You mean out-durothere, right? 😆
@@ArvidsBaranovs Hope so Arvids!
Smuki un Krišjānis labi skan 👍🏻
Благодарю за видео!
Great video ... cant wait for more ... and now to make my way through your other videos ..
Thabks
Awesome, thank you!
Top work gentlemen!
Yes, Sir! 🫡
What a superb edit this is! Great work 🙌🏻
Glad you like it!
Awesome build, now ditch those hard cases for some soft luggage😅
Hard to ditch that heritage :)
Hard to ditch the thing you looove! 😁
Badass!
It has an ass and it sounds bad!
That is one fantastic looking conversion.
Love the graphics.
I would get rid of the big square paniers though. They don't look the part, and more inportantly they are a hazard when offroading.
Get some descent soft paniers instead
I would to, but hey, it’s the modern nomad’s choice :)
Nicely done..
Thank you! Cheers!
My first offroad bike was a 2007 990adv, I was de 6th owner (yeah creazy 75.000km), I learned how to ride offroad with that bike and I can say that bike really was a companion, only left stranded once (battery, bad rectifier) my first big trips was with her, I had her for a year and put almost 30.000kms. but I had to sell it, almost no spare parts for that model on my country and parts from overseas was months in waiting time, thanks god I know how to fix bikes because the first time I had her in my garage, she was in bad shape.
Now i'm t7 gang :D
Welcome to the t7 gang :)
Awesome bike! Got one myself as well 🤩
Enjoy it!
Cheers from Indonesia 🇮🇩
I got inspired about Indonesia myself while making the film. Will have to add it to the motorcycling bucket list!
@@ArvidsBaranovs Except Borneo and Papua, I’m already ride of all big Indonesian Island… let’s go 😄😄
Terimakasih Janis Klavins telah berkunjung ke Indonesia 👍
Lai aizved, vislabākajos ceļojumos 😊
Great video,
Thanks!
Precīzāk šķiet grūti pateikt par moto attīstību šodien, kā pirmajās 4 minūtēs!❤
Apsveicu!
Lai piedzīvojumu virsotnes ir nedaudz neaizsniedzamas, radot to nelielo izaicinājuma un pārbaudījumu garšu, kas padara finiša aliņu neaizmirstamu!
Vārds!
Great film, great story and awesome bike! 👌
Thanks for watching!
Simply EPIC!!!!!
Simply agree!
amazing video mate
Thanks a lot!
Brilliantly composed, and amazing edited, you made it very interesting, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@ArvidsBaranovs It was brilliant, well done to you.
Great Video! Thanks for sharing it.
Классное видео, спасибо 👍
wonderfull story about great see this bike again on road and trails ;-)
Yes indeed!
The 950 was my dream bike before. Like. BR
A very beautiful and meaning video. I did not skip a second of it.
A million times better than the US once where the completely destroy such kept time capsules.
Top 💪💣👍
Great job on the video - idk how you only have 2.13k subs?!??!! Also, why no Rottweiler intake? Really wakes the 950 up! (At least it did mine!)
Thanks! Just starting out I guess. No idea about the intake, but I wouldn’t say that stock 950 is a sleepy either.
@@ArvidsBaranovsoh yea 950 is awesome!! Definitely check out the intake - allows it to breathe so much better, saves a decent bit of weight, and the air filter is washable and easier to change too. LOVE the graphics kit you came up with!!!
Как владелец 990го адвенчера полностью поддерживаю автора! красавец. И хорошо обновил своего коня
I have a 2017 KTM 1090R that I love, but like you, do not like all the electronics on the new KTM 790/890/1290 bikes, and would never buy one. At this point I am interested in a KTM 950 SE. Great video, thanks for sharing.
Ive heard these bikes are great for adventure riding. In my area, they still hold quite the premium price unfortunately.
They will only get more expensive due to their cult status. An adventure bike bitcoin of sorts.
I agree completely about enjoying the lack of electronics. The only caveat is I will say I love front abs. Obviously it can't be too aggressive on an off-road bike. But it has 100% saved my ass before. The ideal is to just never fuck up and lock up the front wheel, sure. But in the real world people make mistakes in the course of tens of thousands of miles... That's one feature that I just really appreciate about modern motorcycles.
Sure, I do enjoy the ABS on my Tenere. But you have to realise that this is 2005. ABS was just becoming mandatory.
Great video! Got me looking for a 950 now :) Can you tell me a bit more about the "low quality fuel ignition system switch" mentioned at 7:08? Is that like a physical toggle to adjust ignition? Never seen that before so would love to learn more!
Thanks! As I understand it’s basically just a physical switch that changes the fueling that’all. Not sure it’s needed anymore, 20 years have passed after all. Fill find out soon, since we’re going on new 901s to Africa soon and filling up from bottles there.
🔝
950s are rare in the used market. I think those who own them know not to sell them.
Yes, they’re becoming somewhat of a collectors pieces.
Such an amazing bike, now it just needs some soft luggage :D
Soft luggage is only for soft people. Ok, I'm kidding :)
Hi, to change oil used Motul 7100? It’s good? I thank just motorex use al Ktm Bike. I ve got a 990 adv too. The best Bike! Wokderfull video, guy!
Honestly, I don't know what's the difference between oils and find those discussions as meaningful as those about tires. If it's lubricating, it's working. The bike rides good.
Totally disagree with your arguments from the beginning of the movie.
This days there are so many awesome, new mid weight adv bikes to choose from...
KTM 950/990 was a badass back then but claiming that it is 'the choise' now is such an exaggeration.
PS. The video is top notch! 💪🏽
Those arguments (if they even can be called that) are the thoughts of the new owner, not some universal wisdom. It’s a personal piece and motorcycles are all about personal choices. I myself ride a T7 which suits my needs the best.
5:45 ... I just saw my house on the map!
Must have a big house then!
@@ArvidsBaranovs Haha ... my wife took my house (and my last name as well).
Hell yes that its impossible to Buy New nowadays, I mean look at those prices at the beginning of the video😮
Gadgets cost cash.
Tas mocis ir zvērs. Es ar to pa LV nobraucu 3K km, bet man vienalga no viņa bija mazliet bail.
Jā, šis ievieš respektu. Mierīgi ar to pabraukt nav iespējams.
kalau tidak salah melihat kalian melewati daerah sumatera sekitaran 6 tahun lalu 😃
This was in 2006. Quite a bit more than 6 years ago :)
Intro song?
Shazam
Kāds ir ražošanas gads šim mocim?
2005
CFmoto is the way to go
Only time will tell!
"Become such bad riders we need babysitting?"
Funny because I call the new "Rider aides" nannies.
Current generation ABS is a good safety tool on pavement for new riders.
Traction control let's you ride a 100+ horse power machine without going through rear tires from spinning said wheel.
Pluses and minuses for all the rider aides.
My biggest fear is new riders not learning the skills to safely operate those levers without the "nannies" to save themselves.
"But I had the traction control on????".
Now explain that TC only helps with traction when the throttle is applied.
It's not that the few/new riders have become bad riders it's more they never became good riders on their own.
FIY KTM using CFMOTO agregates
Not in 2005 tho
Buy a Royal Enfield Himalayan 450...😅😅😅.
That’s like comparing a rally car with a horse.
You talked too much. I lost interest in your video after 7 minutes 😢😢😢. Be more straight forward. Good luck.
Long form content is not for everyone. But hey - thanks for sticking around for even 7 minutes!
good luck with the fuel consumption
This is 950, not 990. The consumption is ok.
Yes, all good with that. 🥰
really ? i mean for real now ? who cares about fuel consumption on a ktm 950 ? take a malaguti instead
i had one and i miss it…. nowdays with the lack of spare parts it does not make sense nomore unless you are a mechanic…. better a T7…. sad but true
2009 990 here, consumption is around 6L/100km 2012 R standard map with a few mods in TuneECU and stock airbox and buffled Akras. Cruising at 4-5K rpm.
just get a drz
There’s a place and time for drz too
CANT WAIT TO GET MY KOVE 800X , im just done with overpriced austrian crap
Will see how that bike performs. It’s interesting for sure.
Super video, cepuri nost 🤟
