Looking for a new rear tire with more durability and Offroad traction than my tkc80s.
Curious if anyone has used the XT+ Dakar and what their thoughts were.

Here is my first ride review of the YSS full suspension. There will be an install video at some point (it’s not going to be great). There will be more reviews of the suspension as I ride and make videos. If you have questions about the kit beyond what I can answer, I would recommend reaching out to EPM Performance as they were quick to respond to all of my questions before buying the kit. Enjoy the video

Took the group on a 430km round trip through a mix of twisties and backroads.

Crf300l YSS suspension Review

Did a ride through the Elan Valley this week and put together a 60-second edit from the trip. The roads and scenery were ridiculously good — especially early morning before traffic appeared. The roads to Claerwyn are closed when I went but cut through the barrier and you can bypass the works.

Easily one of my favourite rides in Mid Wales so far.

I’ve been using trail forks as my main app to find trails but I’m finding it very limiting. I currently have the garmin earthmate app paired with my Garmin mini for getting myself out of trouble.

I’m looking for an app that can help me find new areas to ride, clearly outline what regions are public land, crown land and private etc. specfic trails would be a cool add on but not a deal breaker. Currently looking at onx Offroad but open to suggestions.

After riding smaller bikes around the city and doing weekend escapes. I've started thinking about whether scooters can genuinely work for light adventure travel or if they remain mainly commuter machines. A friend suggested to me the yamaha tmax motorcycle because it seems to sit between a scooter and a touring capable machine. What I am trying to understand is whether it can handle longer mixed road weekend trips with luggage without feeling strained or if it is better suited to shorter comfortable rides. I also noticed while browsing accessories online there are a lot of touring screens and luggage setups which makes me wonder how far people realistically push this platform. For riders who have actually used one in real conditions does it feel like a capable light tourer or more of a city focused machine that can occasionally stretch into longer routes. Trying to decide if it makes sense for weekend exploration or if a small adventure bike would still be more practical for mixed terrain riding and longer distance comfort. From real rider experience would you actually choose the yamaha tmax motorcycle for weekend adventure use or is a traditional ADV still better overall choice?

Hi everyone,

I recently bought a new Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports DCT 2026 and I’m looking to replace the stock seat.

For me, the original seat feels too narrow and not comfortable enough, especially in the main seating area where it becomes too slim. I want something that is:

• as comfortable as possible for long road rides
• wider than stock in the main seating area
• made for comfortable seated road riding — I do not plan to stand on the bike or use it for serious off-road riding
• easy to install, so that any normal motorcycle mechanic can fit it without problems
• preferably black or another dark color
• seat heating is not necessary

For reference, I am 187 cm tall and weigh 83 kg.
The bike is grey, and I am based in Valencia, Spain.

I would really like to hear from people who have actually replaced the seat on their Africa Twin / Africa Twin Adventure Sports and were genuinely happy with the result.

Which brands or models would you recommend?
Corbin, Russell Day-Long, Seat Concepts, Sargent, Touratech, or something else?

Most importantly, I’m looking for a seat that is noticeably wider and more comfortable than stock, not just “slightly better”.

Thanks a lot — real owner feedback would be very appreciated.

I just got back from a 2-day ride through North Wales where I tried to link up 5 mountain passes into one loop—and honestly, it was way more epic than I expected - weather was amazing and views jaw dropping

Started out hitting Pen y Pass and Rangers Pass, then pushed into Rhydd Forest Track which got properly rough in places. By the time I got to Dol y Goch and Hellfire Pass, I was feeling it 😅

Ended the first day camping by a lake near Bala which made it all worth it. Unreal scenery, proper mix of road + off-road, and some of the best riding I’ve done in the UK.

Would you try to do all 5 in one go—or split it differently?

Would you consider this bike a dual sport, adventure bike or neither?

Breathtaking forest and mountain trails at Rhydd heading over to the rangers pass 🤙
