We know the truth about pickin up T7 an 6-790s. So the elephant in the room is, what’s this bloody great thing goin to be like to pick up in the real world! All the gear, fuel water an a tired rider!! That’s what’s more important out there!! Cheers Skippy.🙏🙏👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🏍️🏍️

Dan, you're my favourite UA-camr. I just re-watched this one. Hoping for more videos from you when you're ready.

Kove 800

In this scenario of 3 options, the only one I wouldn't choose is KTM due to the problems with camshaft

Great review. Thank you!

Ill still take the KTM any day

great vid man loving your content well done

900 is a great bike but filling it up every 250km and having empty tank light every 200km was not ok for me. So I sold it.

890 is a dessert race bike. T7 proper adventure bike as it's been pretty obv shown by many riders and the bmw is just a show bike. I'd just use that one for normal street riding and small trips and once a while a backroad

Would be good to see this test repeated ridden as ADV bikes instead of enduros ie fully loaded with gear as that's the main purpose of an ADV. I did a very similar track on my T7 in the weekend, deep into the bush solo so had all my camping gear plus tools spare tubes ,pump, drone, charging gear etc. The weight changes your riding style and what you ask of the bike so it may alter the results. Would love to try the BMW, have done 1800km on a KTM890 and just didn't gel with the bike , the T7 has some shortfalls but I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Bmw missed the mark with the fuel tank... such a shame. The 900 adventure is doesn't have the good suspension......

Nice video. Out of this group, I believe only the T7 comes close to the off road prowess of the Aprilia Tuareg 660, but doesn't beat it. And doesn't even compete on pavement. Id be curious to see how the rest of these compare to the Tuareg on pavement. I still think the Tuareg is the best all around, at least at the moment. It's definitely good to see competition heating up in the middleweight adventure segment. Can't wait to see what's next.

I'd encourage every potential purchaser to ride the beemer yourself. I found it top heavy and the steering geometry is way too lazy. The front pushes in turns and it runs wide. I'd honestly prefer the old F800gs. It's lighter and has a way lower centre of gravity as well as over 2 degrees less head angle which makes it steer really well. I had an XR900. Same frame and motor. It steered like a shopping trolley too.

Can't beat the sound of that tenere though. Just rumbles on past

The BMW motor is made in China while they ask premium price for it. No thanks.

T7 as the only one with proper offroad tyres...not good comparison there.

when you say 'buy a bike' do you hear how you say them both the same?

End times happened already. Matthew 16 and 24 says it clearly. 70AD!

Both the KTM and The Yamaha has seat heights that are out of reach for shorter riders which is where the BMW comes in for me and where I ride the fuel range is less of a problem.

It should have been a Tiger 900 and not the T7 sorry. It isn’t even close to comparison to the mid size leaders.

Went for a ride today (on my newish 450 MT) and was thinking that DK hadn't put out a video in a little while! And then, there it is. Interesting comparison video. I like the T7 and the GS!

BMW fuel tank is way too small.

Great stuff, Dan, very informative!

Wish the Tiger Rally Pro was included 🤘🏽🍻

Great review lads 👍

Of course 70-odd hp I'd plenty off-road, but it's not enough on road. It means I'd need another bike for the road.

I would pick the 690. :D Great way to compare! Thanks! Would like to hear your thoughts about the 690 in comparison.

I was surprised it only has 14.5 ltr tank, sounds like its very similar to the desert x or ktm 1090

Great video Dan, those tracks are wild. The bikes just ate them up.

BMW should offer a 20l tank option on the GS. Its plastic and can't be too hard to do. The GSA is a very heavy bike.

Good review. I put a Power Commander 6 and a Rottweiler air intake on mine.

Hello from Argentina Nice Video, thanks for sharing. Already subscribed.

Dan, how do pack your food. Especially a steak?

Great breakdown of your gear and video incorporated 👊

Great set up really useful

Hey Dk, do you wish to share a gpx file on that ride?

Just to diverse a tad 😃I know you have done a vid with the camping gear, but what do you use for a possible puncture repair, air wise? Bottles or mini compressor, and if a compressor, what type?

What about a packable shovel?…..how do you create a lettrine? 😮

How about a perimeter alarm? No?

Bit late to comment but this build inspired me to buy a 21 690, it was a fair outlay, 4k on the clock but with a few extras, BRP Clamps, scotts damper, factory screen, fresh 606s (worn out now) , rear rack, Rade Aux tank, sidestand foot, balanced wheels, Power parts comfort seat (surprisingly good), and Power parts bash plate(too thin) etc. Will be a while till i can get it to this level of aftermarket refinement, its an expensive journey to get the bike totally sorted but i think its worth it if you are committed to keeping the bike long term. Following mods in the future for me, Wings exhaust, full Krooze tune meal deal with Xtrig adjuster, luggage/camping gear, molecule skidplate, Rallz rear and Dual Venture front and other protection like ABS covers etc. Definitely will try the 14t sprocket, will be the ultimate hill climber! The only high country trip i have done on the bike was Bairnsdale to Omeo, some singletrack and steep hillclimbs, the bike performed above my expectation. The traction control is incredible in Map 2 for hill climbs, keeps you moving forward without busting sideways. Also had a remap by Yuri, well worth it. If you happen to see my comment Dan, what Rack did you go with and what bags are you using with it?

Nice and very informative video. What is the weight of the bike now with mods, except for luggage? Cheers

Hi Dan, which suspension company did you go with and how would describe the benefits? I have a 21 690 and find the suspension pretty harsh.

Brilliant

Great video mate, really helpful commentary. I've been thinking of getting an adventure bike and have been watching all the epic transcontinental trips. It's good to see there's some nice riding close to home, even if you have to pick your lines carefully to avoid being swallowed up

Hi. Can I ask what tyre pressures your running off road on your 701 (with luggage)? Many thanks, Steve A

G'day Mate, With the Wings Exhaust & smaller airbox with the Rade Garage fuel tank, did you need a ECU remap?

Güzel günlerde keyifle sürün

Great videos mate. Really enjoyed trip and looking forward to doing the same when the weather gets a bit warmer.

Nice tracks and ride! What tires are you using?

Epic ride Dan. That burger must have been amazing!
