    very informative as usual, your point about the off road riding ability was spot on, apart from a few gravel tracks I wouldn't dare take my hulking gs adventure off road!! Thanks for the video, look forward to the next one, happy new year

    Great to hear that you will visit Sweden! 👍🏻 Hope you like to ride easy gravelroads, we have loads of it!
    To the RadeGarage extra tank and airfilter, do not buy it if you not like to do a tuning of the bike. So many had problem with a jerkey bike after the switch. I think it has do with its filter size, but im not sure. Read about it!

      Thanks for watching. I plan to have the bike tuned on a dyno after fitting the Rade tank to sort out any fueling issues. I'm looking forward to seeing Sweden, I've never been.

    Its a great bike, I got mine in 2019 and have best.
    Best is the engine and the range, can do 220-240km on mine before gas refil
    What I dont like so much is the heat (very hot) from the muffler and the handguards as stock.

    • @stranobikes
      @stranobikes  11 дней назад

      Thanks for watching. The stock muffler gets very hot due to to the catalytic converter, changing the end can sorts this out.

    Hello, i placed an order today for the fairing support @ AS and asked about the availability for the luggage rack.
    They answered that it's already deliverable for Europe, so won't be long for you also i would think .

      @stevia13 if you Google Optimate charger you should find what you need. The Optimate charger comes with a few options to power it including a lead to go onto the battery. I haven't changed the battery to a lithium one.

    at 165 Pounds for that seat gel kit, given all the work you put in modifying your seat, seems like you may have been better off buying the Seat Concepts seat.

    • @stranobikes
      @stranobikes  2 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching. You may be right. I've just had the seat re-sculptured locally so I'll be interested to see how my backside copes with it. The chap who's done the work has reworked hundreds of seats and his comment regarding the gel was that it works well if you have 2 inches of foam underneath, the Husky seat, of course, doesn't.

      @@stranobikes So I have been doing a great deal of looking and comparing of bikes and plan on getting the 701 for the exact same reasons you got yours; adv capability but light enough for trails and to pick up when dropped. The seat seems to be the biggest problem I would like to solve (and I would like it to be comfortable in the back also for my wife to sit on time to time). One thought I had was if there is a way to have a super plush comfy add-on seat that could essentially be fitted on top of the stock seat for highway cruising (attached with some clips or something) but could be popped off and stashed in the top box if you wanna hit some trails. Like a convertible. The other thought was to lust have a place customize the original seat with new, shaped foam, and leather etc (not cheap obviously).

      @@evelcustom9864 Thanks for watching. My wife and I use a GS1200 Rallye Sport for our two-up touring and my wife (who is slim and doesn't have a fat @rse) sits on an air cushion, which she finds pretty comfortable. If you Goggle 'Motorcycle air cushion seat' you'll find something similar. I think two-up on the 701 is.......ambitious! I've just had my 701 seat re-shaped and I'll be showing it on the channel soon, it is to be determined whether it makes any difference.

      I have a 2021 Husky 701 enduro. I bought a complete Seat Concepts XL seat for mine from Rocky Mountain ATV. The XL is actually extra wide (not sure why it isn’t called XW), but not any taller than the stock seat. It is much better than stock, but not cushy by any means.

    More like Temu ripped off the design, down to the serial number. This is not uncommon in China.
    The reflectors in headlights are designed for the bulb they use. So yes, you can change the bulb, and have a brighter light but don't expect the light pattern to be as good.

      Thanks for watching. They're called indicators because they indicate which way you intend to turn. But maybe that's just me :)
