    Supergood analysis, agree. Have been raiding it through Jawa, Bali, Sumbawa and next is Flores, perfect bike, no need to add anything except the spoked wheels, they should have provided in the original model. Enjoy the ride my friend, I know very well how much fun you are having.

    Thanks for the video! I have been told that the KTM Skid Plate mounts to the engine unlike the SWMotech which mounts to the frame. I've still yet to upgrade my stock so see if I need such a beast first. lol

    • @drivetheglobe
      @drivetheglobe  6 місяців тому +1

      Can't tell you how many times I have smacked the skid plate with rocks! Been great. Remember, the engine is really part of the whole frame on these bikes anyway. Not sure it matters which one- both good.

    Nice Unimog, got one too, made of Lego! Joking aside how come never changed the windshield to a taller one? One sweet upgrade in conjunction with the Akra is an aftermarket air filter which has a perforated lid. It will radically change the sound of your Akra and give slightly better engine performance. I would also drop the resonator, especially with that hot environement and put a SW-Motech skid plate. Prolly the new 390 with spoked wheels and 830mm saddle, along with upgraded software would fit better overall. Coober parts are also nice but might loose the warranty. Cheers from Belgium! 💪

    Thanks for sharing, interesting that your forks started leaking, I wonder if you can rebuilt them yourself ADV Matt, did put in a stronger spring (diy). And "hat off" for your life style, way to go my friend. Thank you for sharing. Explore and be safe!
