50lb of Luggage on a Tenere sounds wonderful... I just went on my first camping trp and had a similar amount of weight (23kg) on a bike that is 167kg dry. having that weight on a bike with 3 times the power and 50kg heavier (lke a Tenere with crash bars and bash plate) would have been like the luggage wasn't even there
It really wasn't too bad. I was hesitant the first few days just trying to be safe and make it the whole trip without injury. I'm hopefully doing a trip on my 450rl with similar luggage in February. I think the weight is more noticeable stopped than when in motion.
You should try and get some of that pack weight further forward, basically over the rear hub. Anything behind that point is constantly "catapulted" especially in that rough stuff! You can use the front crash bars as another storage point on each side. Rhinowalk makes a great 8L bag that connects securely to those bars.

Yep! I'm subbed to him lol Honestly it was only about 10-15lbs that was on the seat. Bag had come off because the contents had settled and the way it straps allowed it to unhook itself. The heavy stuff was packed low and forward in the side bags. I was using the rhinowalk bags in this video but did just receive the giant loop great basin bag that i'm hoping to be able to run further up without affecting my riding position.
@@Jeredsmith Yay, I believe this should be enough to make the picture considerably better. Have you already tried using the highest picture quality settings? Like 5,3K60FPS? You might also want to look for any quality degradation during editing and exporting process in your video editing software. The best available quality for this video now is only 1080p. I think your footage deserves a better picture quality.
@@Dmitrii-z1m yea it's in the video editing process. What do you recommend render/export setting? without making the file HUGE. this was about 20-25gb video. Not sure what's normal?
@@Jeredsmith I've got to confess I'm not a big pro about the details, but the first things I would've check this: H.264 or H.265 (is better if available) codec, bitrate 60-80 Mbps for 4K60 video, the frame rate FPS like in the original video is preferable, resolution 3840 x 2160, two-pass encoding mode. The size between 20-25 GB is expected for the ouput with the settings above.
@@Dmitrii-z1m I need to change project settings for next video (not the one coming out soon) because i know I have it set at 1080p mainly because i only have 1080 monitors right now. THanks for the advice I'm going to change to 1440 or whatever above 1080 and see how it goes.
You need to visit oman 🇴🇲 for this type of trip
Great ride
That ride was a workout. I have a T7 and can relate. You're ready! Good riding!
Thanks! definitely prepared me for the rest of the trip.

Such a vibrant scenery is here, so a decent quality 4K camera is mandatory. 😅
GoPro 12! some video on iphone14 pro and color grading helped! Colorado is a very pretty state though makes it easy lol

I 'd rather ride a quad on that type of terrain.
I thought about that when a sxs cruised by me going down hill as i was fighting up it lol
Talk please!!!!
@@RandomParrot more talking while riding?
