    Crashbars Vs Axp skidplate

    I used bar on my previous Triumph Tiger 800 and KTM 1xx0 series, and they all do the job saving the bike. Now I had installed a couple of Givi, but I don't like them: aestetically, first, and also because they interfere with my foot when I have to take it off the platform and place it on the...

    Crashbars Vs Axp skidplate

    At the end I'll test the Givi Crash Bar, but I'm not happy: i feel the weight and for me it's more difficult to put the feet on the ground due to the boots (sometimes) bit on the crashbar. In the technical accessories Husqvarna now show this in picture, I feel it interesting. Someone has news...

    One more ride through the Dolomites…. Other pikes, other roads, the same beatiful view! 527 kmeters, 26 km/liter of fuel. Here in Italy gasoline will priced at 2,3 euro/liter, a bit more then a full tank for my ride.

    Crashbars Vs Axp skidplate

    HI matte, I know givi crashbar is cheaper than other brands, but I' used them on my old KTM 1050 ADV and was not satisfied: they 'll protect the bike, yes, but each* falls needs to desmount and straighten them. The original from KTM I bought after never need this. In case of crashbar I'm lookin...

    Crashbars Vs Axp skidplate

    I don't know about you, but I'm always struggling with the indecision between the crash bars and the Apx racing skidplate. When I decided to take the norden, the main reason was to be able to have a lighter and more compact bike than the V2 ktm's that I have had in the last six years, and this...

    I'm not entirely convinced of AXP. Aesthetically I find it a bit invasive, but so are the crash bars, but the real doubt is above all about the protection: the honeycomb that fixes the tank under the aluminum cover must be removed, and is replaced by a very small piece of foam which the...

    And after 2,000 km, it's fall!!! Sunday, after stopping to take a pict, I shot the engine on starting and can't put my feet on the ground. In the pict you can see the damage, there's a scratch on the right hand guard, too, but fairings are save. Ufoortunately, the spare costs, here in Italy...

In these days I am suffering from back pain and I also have a blocked and sore right knee, but the Norden remains a light, easy and not...

    Finally !!!

    Well, I'm using Oxford heated grips and I'm lookin' to switch the "fast" mounting I've done the first day the bike was in the garage in "ultimate": they works well, the switch is not a problem, indeed, I can turn it on or off with the ignition off and change the temperature level without...

    -7 is already a very complicated temperature ... at first I found myself facing these temperatures without equipment and it was very heavy. Now, if everything works - the heated vests have the connection cables a bit fragile and after a while they usually get cut - I found myself having whole...

    Yes, I use a heated jacket and heated grips. It’s a heavy situation to drive for several hours at temperature between -4 and +2 Celsius. Honestly, yesterday in the sunny temperature was incredible high for the season. In the shadow zones, as the picture, there is still cold and ice. This...
