Nice set-up and appreciate the details about placement and preferences. Nothing is perfect so that means ... multiple rigs in the stall! Am picking up a used 640 ADV next month. Looking forward to it.
Great looking Bike.. Was wondering what hand guards you have and are you happy with them. And curious why you bought the touratech racks instead of the RR? Very interested because i need to purchase these for my 2015 690... thanks in advance for any advise.
stainless vs painted steel and with a rear cross bar for strength. the triangular shape of the rally raid rack is a bad fit with my Wolfman luggage as well.
+UnsightedADV yeah we had to email them off their website but it's 10 days from Sept 7th to 17th. We'll try to find the info and send you a private message 😀
Great bike. I'm planning to build something similar for my trip to Kirgistan.Two questions. What's the whole tank capacity with new tanks? Distance? When u sit do u see enough regarding the new shield? Isn't the front wheel too hidden sight wise? Many thanks.
your 950 looked better and more capable. what was the reason you sold it! by the way your abandoned mine adventure ride was awesome! thanks for sharing!

Wow great job on the 690... love it.
Sure diggin your bike man seriously thinking about building one up! 👌👍
Looks awesome! I was considering doing that but in the end decided to use my F800gsa as my long distance bike and the 690 as my hit the trail bike.
+Steve Goyette Not a bad choice! I just liked the idea of a single platform that could do both.
you should only love that which cant love you back'' what can, wont'' ''life will change without your help , keep what you love.
Looks Great. In the process of trying a similar process if I buy a 2016 690...
You spelled Build wrong at 3:16, but too late now :)
Looking great. Cant wait to see it in action.
+Nerb1 Good Catch! easy fix with an annotation. Glad to know people are watching to the end aha
Yeah that looks awesome! How is the fairing at fast rides on hardpack/hwy? wind protection? noisy or vibrating too much?
+darkohelc1 So far so good, Good wind protection and seems quite enough. Need more time in the saddle to make a judgment though.

Did you use a sub mount with the stabilizer? I was under the impression the BRP sub mount will not work with the rally raid kit....
Excellent work! Are you doing the Grizzbait this year?
+Sum4Seb Looks like a cool ride. Can't find much info on the date though.

22L total capacity. if you ridge gingerly you are good for about 450KM. You can see the front wheel if you stand on the pegs and lean forward a bit
how much will cost the wole kit for conversion from endro to rally raid?
your 950 looked better and more capable. what was the reason you sold it! by the way your abandoned mine adventure ride was awesome! thanks for sharing!
+Rommel Cruz Thats! I sold it because I wanted something newer and lighter. So far I am happy with my choice.
+UnsightedADV ok. i thought so too! while you were riding the 950, it looked heavy though. ride safe man!
How much was the fairing? This is my ideal bike. 690 rallyed out for adventure and 500 or 350 exc for the trails.
+Chad Cherry I got it second had so it worked out to about $1300 CAD ( $1000 USD). New they are about double that
My gayLR works just as good. Only thing is it never loves me back.
Ew you Recked it
Thats like, your opinion mannnnnn
