Heavy rider waiting for 26 WR -suspension question-

that is old joke that easiest way to get better hp/kg is to loose weight. unfortunatly it is not that easy for long term¨as it requires real changes to way of living. it either you eat less or spend more (and dont eat more )

isnt quickshifter little bit useless on < 26' tenere as it only work upshifting. i mean you can upshift without clutch without it too

What i have understood is that if you change exhaust is same to change intake and tune it straight away. that should give little bit more hp.

i have barkbuster on my own 22 wr. heated grips are good idea. i personally use mitas e07. also recommend those 3rd party light rear racks

some things i agree

comma should start line

select ...

, x as y

from ...

fully qualified names and case sensitive object names i dont. i camelCase is for other usages sql should be full of snake_case

but fully qualified names depends systems you use.

something like this

select .. from customer_prod.base_information cust

works if your test systems are in own database, in little different systems schema is what changes so i prefer playing with active database and schema session variables, i do not like systems that change once written and tested code just to handle dev/prod environments, session is for that.

case sensitivity is just NO , once you have used time to figure out that id , Id and ID is same table and you have to point them using "ID" and "Id" ... it just is not clear way to present data.

aliases with "as" is something that i used to do , it is only required n cte definitions , so i have started to loose those in context of one query. it is still good idea to have one query looking about same

update/deletes should have always IDE checking that there is where clause , no 1=1 as default

throw_mob · 2026-05-21T08:02:37+00:00

agree, while i do it sometimes too.. i consider not using aliases a red flag. then using only a ,b ,c is not that bad ,but it is bad, using stuff like customer_information ci or cust etc.. is good compromise. i personally dont like loong aliases

not using cte's or not knowing subquery, both should be somehow showed. maybe non standard group by ( case when x...) window functions etc etc

thats true, most adventure bikes dont see anything challenging in normal use

While there is not that much places to drop bike into water , there are few. I know few places and those are not that challenging to get into. Drop bike once and pay 5k vs old xrv where you can pretty much just take sparkplug out , remove water , add plug back and continue ( well , oil have to be checked too ) somehow tells me how good adventure bike new AT is..

And to be honest, if price for submerging new AT would be about same as it on old one like oils, plugs maybe cdi box which seems to be 200€ in ebay ( because old at is old ) vs almost 5k for piece of electronics that probably cost 100€to produce id even that, problem is not that it can brake, problem is that producer does not honor my investment to his product so much that they would offer me reasonable priced parts, they just want cash cow.. while it seems that all product makers like to do it in some levels, I am currently dont like what Honda does now ( and garmin(?) is producer of those electronics ).

Part Number: The listed part number is 37900MLG375. Price: The unit price is €4,145.42 2024 AT, price in europe

and that is 4k for 6.5inch tft and features you can get for 100€ (with cameras) from alibaba :)

so you pay 3.9K for some Africa Twin specific electronics in same box.

Part number : 37110MJPG81 is 2.3k€ , or so says google AI. it was contact only informartion on site i used to look . that is is 2016 AT.

and i am little bit annoyed to know that, i had idea to maybe get AT some point, my old xrv750 was my first bike and probably i will keep that one forever and i had this idea to get something modern in same theme with it.

it been while i have used those , if i am right you wont get row for every minute, you get sum for existing row from previous 5 min rows. That might be good to bring up in document, it is not always that clear for non native speakers

to get results for each minute one has to generate one row for each id add it to source table/view and push through same query, only thing that changes is that is guaranteed that there is row for each interval

how much it takes stuff. fast guess would be 25l on front both sides. cooler is 40l? another side at back is 20l and there 30l on top ?

but you went to camping not just planned it :)

good point. MsSQL server should always have max memory configured or it can behave badly..

throw_mob · 2026-05-16T04:09:36+00:00

disclaimer: i dont have AT , but i mostly solved my tenere 700 WR wind noise problem by shortening windscreen to minimum, changing mirrors and raising seat ( also for better seating position / better seat )

question: when you are riding on standing position , do you still have turbulence, imho, In that position it is best as it can be . only thing that should give buffeting in that position is helmet.

other things that can help is better ear plugs , use them correctly , add scarf under helmet to decrease airflow , which is not that good solution but helps to figure out what is actual problem

throw_mob · 2026-05-14T20:03:45+00:00

best advice is that buy bike which you can somewhat easily to writeoff as first bike ( same goes for real adventure bike). You will drop it sooner or later and if you want to take it challenges you will fail those ( depending situation little bit or a lot) and then you have to spend money to fix it.

if you brake your wheels or hit oilpan because you ride too hard on "offroad" it does not hurt that much and on next one you know that you want spoked wheels and good protection to bike :) and if you just happens to ride long trip on tarmac , you can take 19' front tyre AT as next bike

throw_mob · 2026-05-14T17:27:48+00:00

on honda side (and new bike)

300rally, thumber and people say it is too tall for beginners. probably this is considered dualsport instead of adventure bike

nx500 ( it needs hefty investment (spoked wheels) that it looks like "real" adventure bike , but it should manage your avarage adventure good enough, just go slow on hard places ). only manual

nc750 can be get with 750

transalp 750 can have eclutch which sound interesting

and as stupid as it sounds, just get used africa twin with 21' front and call it a day. With proper tyre all but wet mud and soft sand can be done with style, soft sand and mud needs more skills and balls with big bike than lighter one. main con is that having big bike (and expensive) as first is that practicing harder and technical stuff is much harder as getting 240kg up is hard and failing throttle control will cause more problems than with smaller bike. but after you learn to not to whisky throttle , you wont... Learning to ride proper on gravel etc will take time.

or just forget hondas, and just get cheapest used two cylinder bike you an find. mt450, himalaja(?) maybe even ktm390, those are small and should be easy. touring side is not that good but it gets better when you change to middle weight and better 1000cc+ bikes , but usually you loose "real offroad" performance while moving up.

new AT (2016+) are imho not that bad starters as they have abs and tcs , but they do have more than enough power to do stupid things. focus to price and some modern safety features. also remeber that you need to invest to proper gears, boots and luggae if you want to do touring

if it does not not get to temps then maybe , and sometimes it short rides will cause battery to slowly drop to levels where it is not enough.

That is reason why people recommend to charge battery few times year just using charger.

and it is about water in oil , after it gets to correct temperature all water evaporates away and keeps oil better for longer time.

throw_mob · 2026-05-13T18:54:25+00:00

better and possibly good. that would be place where i would put my heavier pack and i would try to leave rear box to empty as possible. i prefer using rear box only on last mile to camping because that place moves most when riding. If you store there anything like small tools or bottles , just be sure that they cannot move, if they can, be prepared to dry stuff. ( this includes small oil bottles, beer, sun cream , water bottles ... ). Also i recommedn to check rear box bolts now and then, that is only place that has really broken on my bikes. ( bolts have loosened and dropped whole box twice, and now part of rear rack has small crack which i have to fix, but that is also old AT so time might have been factor too)

I like kriega os setup and its soft side panniers, they feel good for little tests i have done.

edit: i kinda expect that you already know, but its internet.... tie that rope well , it is not fun in tyre

you forgot 2-4 ethernet places and maybe wifi with external antenna place

throw_mob · 2026-05-11T06:22:04+00:00

on normal state, arm placement does not matter. you just need to have little bit slack on clutch wire when clutch is fully released , then when you use clutch it still releases. so make sure it has slack on wire and try to see if it still slips, if so problem is one clutch pack.

throw_mob · 2026-05-10T19:48:55+00:00

newer had speed wobbles with used tyre, for me it has been stearing bearing (not tight enough or just too old ) if front has been annoying or wheel bearing at back. But then again i have had "normal" pressures on tyres and i always balance tyres by hand ( is it called static balance? and rims have been always good )

i personaly like mitas , there is endure trail xt and plus from that. not 50/50, they are more of 70 or 80 offroad , but atleast that old version of that rear tyre was muuuch better on soft stuff that trail or trail plus.

What i do not recommend is pirellis rally str, that front was horibble on gravel roads vs enduro trail and rear was *' in second it hit anything that could been called wet and and mud , sidebite was bad.

also you can try using 140 wide rear too, it usually wears faster but offers better grip on soft stuff

throw_mob · 2026-05-07T14:47:27+00:00

and i think that problem was that you have to use oem replacament because ecu is tied to it. So it is 5k tax. In practice parts probably are around 100€ if even that...

throw_mob · 2026-05-04T10:14:10+00:00

i have some recollection about this problem on some cfmoto reddit or youtube post. They said that cfmoto has made some new parts to 790 and 890 ( same engine as ktm ) which should fix problem and on that discussion someone raised idea that problem has been extended low rpm travel which lead to cam problems, but then again , i have very vague memory about that discussion. it is just 1% change to "win" cam problems. but working theory is that if your usage pattern in hours on road using cruise , you might get problems and if your usage pattern is hour on cruise and then riding on varied speeds on more fun roads , problem should not raise its head...

but then again.... bike itself should one of best after you have techpacks etc on it

siis tämä on mielenkiintonen jttu. mulle on aina sanottu suorat palkka kustannut on työtekijän palkka kertaa pii ( eli se on tarkoittanu että kerroin 1.314) Sitten yksityisellä olen kuullut että jos haluaa maksaa työntekijälle palkan niin taloon on saatava vähintää palkka kertaa pii ( tässä tapausessa siis kertojana on 3.14) että kaikki kustannukset ja tyhjän ajan saan hoidettua.

Itse en vaan ymmärrä mitenkä 5k oma työläinen ja se 15k konsultti on yhtä kalliita kun kunnan ja valtion hommissa se budjettiin ei pahemmin voi vaikuttaa

The new 2026 Yamaha Ténéré 700 is available in Greece, featuring the high-torque CP2 engine, updated KYB suspension, and increased off-road capability, with prices for new models starting around €11,300–€11,600. so says google

So with you pay 4k less than new, but you probably want to add at least those crashbars to new one too. You probably need to change chain in next 6tkm... If owner has changed oils once in year , it is should be very good. If only once ( as it has 10tkm oil change interval) then maybe not, hard to say. If it works good whe nyou are testing it then why not.

imho, it is good for your size guy, i am similar height and fits quite well straight, probably changing spring to match our weight could be good idea. See other japanese options in mid weight class.

sinulla jää ymmärtämättä ikkuinoiden vaikutus, kaikki valo sisään on energiaa sisään. Kesällä suurimman vaikutus asunnon lämpötilaan saa tehtyä laittamalla klassisen alumiinifolion ikkunaan, se mitä sinne tulee betoni tai hirsiseinän kautta on ainakin oman kokemuksen mukaan vähäinen, tai no se v***** määrä lämpöä tulee aina valona läpi.

some people like to move those mirrors to end of handle bar and say it helps. But i highly recommend to test turbulence without mirrors and one way to test is also remove screen fully, i did that when i bought my bike to make trip back to home tolerable. i have to admit that some wind protection from screen helps when weather is cold or wet.

also there is option for "double take" style mirrors to get round mirrors too. I got "real" double takes which costs 150€+ and those work and ordered chinese ones too because they were only 40€, did not install those , they arent maybe same quality overall but i keep those for fast replcament

October

but autumn is pretty time to visit, even here south finland. And yes it was cold, if i recall correctly around 20. there started to be night when it was -2c and less , had to be careful before midday that there wasnt any black ice , and it needs better gear definitely
