Thanks for taking the time to create these videos, really appreciate them!
Super job! Thanks so much for making this video; I have to change the tire on a friend's 890 tomorrow, so this was super-helpful.
Thanks for doing all the research for this! Lotta little bits of information that no one else has mentioned. Super helpful.
Thanks Mike. Really appreciate the feedback. This was the second time I’ve had the rear wheel off and I tried to explain the bits I found tricky first time. The front wheel is a more complex process!
Greetings from Canada. Lot's of good info, well done. Subscribed
Thanks so much and pleased you found it useful.
I'm putting my new/old 03' Honda XR650R that is plated into shape and converting to an ADV/ Dual sport bike. I bought it with 50 miles on it and put it in storage, California garage so dry. I do not know how it happened but taking off the new condition Dunlop knobby tire ( 19 year old rubber is bad) and installing Motz tractionator ralley tires both my adjustment bolts were seized in the swing arm. I got the left side free'ed up but the right one sheared off. What a pain in the ass. I'm a machinist and have a Bridgeport Mill that I swung the head out so I could drill out the bolt. The drill did not go center by .030". I ended up having to find center and use a carbide boring bar, over-sizing the hole for a Heli-Coil . Hitting what was left of the steel bolt and then cutting the aluminum swingarm had to make me double the holding power of the fixture. End up being a good job but took maybe 5 hours in total to fix. Even had to make a special tool for the swingarm bolt assembly.
Yeah, put anti seize grease on those buggers!
Nice Video.- FYI you're not supposed to use a torque wrench to remove nuts or bolts. Screws up the calibration. Can make it unreliable in the future.
Loads of great tips good video
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice work. Not had to remove the rear yet on my 890. I remember the 950 Adventure being quite quick and easy though.
Thank you, your chain tensioner blocks are 180 degrees different to mine, the extruding bit facing backwards on yours are facing the adjuster bolt on mine, strange
Thanks for the video, Next time I Will remove the ABS sensor, i dindt think about removing It to avoid damage, nice tip. 👍🏼
What makes me the Life easier Is to remove the two bolts of the chain guide. Normally i do It like that to remove and install the wheel.
You shouldn't use your torque wrench to loose bolts, that'll cause inaccuracies in tightening bolts. Good reminder on the ABS sensor!
The is for that advice and much appreciated.
@@advnoobie6061 I'm still trying to get past the break in period and do my first service but now its dirt bike racing season so the 890 is going to see commuter work and not much more for little while. Enjoying your vids and journey!
Great tutorial , One hack I learned from another UA-camr is to use a ratchet strap over the top of the bike through the wheel to lift the wheel into place allowing you to fiddle with all the components while the weight is being taken up by the ratchet strap.
Now that I love as a tip- makes a lot of sense. Will try it next time. Thanks for watching and have an epic 2023.
@@advnoobie6061 you too
Thx
I'm late watching this as I saved it in my playlist of tips for the bike. Very well presented and very informative as usual, thank you so much for your efforts to help others 👍. I phoned the dealer today, all being well my 890 Adventure R will be delivered on the 7th of June. It's my birthday on the eighth, so I'm going to have a very happy birthday if all goes to plan 😀
Exciting times getting your bike soon.
@@advnoobie6061 Yes, and being second hand it already had a few useful additions. I've had the dealer add some more and I've also bought some other little touches online. Still need to look at other additions like luggage and a bash plate. I guess it will be an ongoing project for some time to come.
Thanks for the video
What grease do you use?
Never seen you set the chain tension you moved the adjuster on the right .
I took photos of before with the chain markers. Knew the tension was good before.
Exvellent video! Thank you! 👍 One recomendation (as it would apply to many of your videos): could you please try to "equalize" the loudness of your intro (song) with the rest of the audio? I usually find myself lowering the volume in the intro part and then bringing it up again as I can barely hear you talk. 🧡
Thanks for the feedback and will do. Still very much learning how to edit.
Nice informative video mate. Any chance you could provide a link to the Workshop Stand you are using? I think I'd like to get one of my own. Cheers! SUBSCRIBED
Hi mate and thanks. Here is a link to the stand. There have been a few negative comments about it but I've been using it daily and outside for about 9 months now and no issues.

Great demo. Thanks. Anakee Wild tyres are great. Had them on a 1250GSA. Going to try Motaz Tractionator next. I now have a new 22 KTM 1290 SAR so I assume the rear wheel removal is the same procedure.
Thanks Chris. Hopefully collecting my 22 SAR tomorrow! I’ve had a few KTMs and the rear wheel has been similar. I’ll check it out when I get the bike.
Best bike ever. I fitted a Puig taller screen. It’s a bit wider and taller, deflects wind past shoulders better. I hate buffering being an old bloke.
@@christopher54179 haha. I’m in the older bloke territory too! I have the KTM wind deflector for my 890 so will give that a go. Very excited.
Thanks for the detailed video. I’m still waiting for my 2023 890 to arrive. Curious why you didn’t change the tire yourself.
On my 350 I always try to use the tools I carry on my bike to test what I have in the event of a field repair. This doesn’t include proper torque checks once complete of course.
Hi Jeff and thanks for watching. Tyre changing is on my list of things to learn this year. My local tyre shop only charges £20 for fitting on loose wheels.
I've just taken delivery of some Michelin Trailmax Missions for the 1290- I think I'll be taking those is and learn on the TKC 80s
Thanks for watching and have fun.
Hi, i prefer to not unscrew the 32mm Axle when the Bike is on a Constands Middlestand. I would drop the bike on the wheel to unscrew until the axle is loose. Rest i think u do well!
Really interesting point. Would you do that because of the slight wobble on the stand?
I do That cause the Bolt That fits in the frame are Not so strong and can bend or Break.
Only vid on rear wheel installation with enough details for me to figure out how to mount back those damn spacers. You're channel is public service ;)
On another note, I have an extra part on the sprocket side, a plate like a washer that goes between the spacer and the bering, it protects the bering from being exposed. My bike is a 2023, but Im surprised you dont have the same.
You can see at 10:45, there is still some orange showing from the bering. I have something that cover this, like a washer
Thanks- appreciate the feedback and pleased it was useful.
Hi, how much Km to go TKC 80.
My first tyre is Metzler Karoo 3, (60km no more, heavy rain in germany).
I’ve found the TKC 80 very good in heavy rain and it’s always felt trustworthy. I’ve ridden it at about 130km/h for hours and it feels fine. It says the max speed rating in 99mph- think that might be about 155kph? I wouldn’t want to ride any quicker than 85mph just for comfort. Most normal road riding is up to about 100kph and this always feels solid. Love the tyre.
