Hello. First of its very good video. I have bought myself 2018 model with only 500 miles on the clock. I don’t have the hand gaurds on my bike. Is it factoryfitted or you bought it separately 👍
Hi Babar, the standard hand guards are plastic, and not sturdy. All of the modifications to the bike were done by the previous owner, except the centre stand & the headlight upgrade which I did. I explain this in the other videos. Congratulations, you have yourself a great bike!
Hi! I am looking forward to buy a used Vstrom 250. I noticed that when I push the start button, there is rattling noise that also re appears when the throttle is opened. This rattling noise is about 5-10% of the total engine noise at idle. Do you think this noise is normal?
I don't think this is normal, no. I would get it checked out before considering buying. Could be an expensive repair, good luck searching for your bike :)
Looks like a nice ride...
The video was rough & ready but the ride was great - thank you Lisa x
Have fun & safe rides with your Vstrom !😉
You too my friend many thanks
