  • Touratech was kind enough to send me their new Aventuro Carbon Pro helmet to check out and what better way to do so than by exploring some local forest roads on my 2024 KTM 790 Adventure? This is just a chill laid back ride through Oregon's Coast Range as I test out the Touratech Aventuro Carbon Pro while looking for campsites at the end of logging roads. Exploring on the 2024 KTM 790 adventure is great because it's easy to ride, has a very manageable seat height, and I have no fear of dropping it because of how easy it is to pick up.

      Was looking for this. Bro just tried to save us money by showing us cheaper shades than flying eyes. Now showing us a rebranded helmet that’s exactly the same minutes the stamp. 699 with the addition of the tourotech stamp. He even said it’s not availible otherwise. Thats 🧢 499 on Revzilla right now.

    Putting the Molecule skid plate on my 500 was a huge PITA. Fortunately it got easier to remove and put back on over time.
    Here in northern CA, Sierra Pacific owns a lot of land. It used to be open to the public and there was a lot of amazing riding. A few years ago they closed it all and we lost all those riding areas. They cited people dumping trash and fire danger as the main reasons.

    They make amazing windshields, theirs was the only one that completely eliminated buffeting on my Africa Twin.

      The madstad on my dr650 is awesome, works wonders with how adjustable it is however on my V85tt the screen doesn't reduce buffeting over stock at all no matter how I adjust it.

    I'll never buy a Nexx helmet again after owning an XWed.2. They seem great looking at the feature list, but I've never owned a helmet so cheaply made. I had to Velcro in all of the cheek pads due to garbage lining clips, the visor/peak clips pop off on the road if you even brush them with your hand, I've almost lost my chin vent cover when opening it with gloves on due to it also popping off. It feels like they made a premium shell and then just kept glueing cheap plastic onto it.

    well, the helmet is cheaper (a lot) than the new Arai. Nothing wrong with my XD-4 though, besides a little weight. I wonder if I have a Touratech shaped head? I lusted after the Krios Pro, when it was THE helmet to have, but it's just the wrong shape for my head, so it wasn't even an option.
