Watch: What modifications should you make to your adventure bike?

In the new episode of ABR Garage, the video podcast of Adventure cyclist, Chief Bike Tester Julian and I research how modifications to your adventure bike can improve your riding experience, whether you’re going on a tour, taking a Sunday ride or exploring a few green alleys.

The show begins with a discussion of how we installed a new Öhlins front and rear suspension on a Yamaha Ténéré 700 and what impact it had, before delving into the pros and cons of adding impact protection, new tires, comfort aids, and more a new exhaust socket on your bike.

You can watch the video from episode 5 of the APR Garage on Youtube below. Or you can listen to the audio version anywhere you can get your podcasts, including on Spotify, Google Podcasts and Apple Podcasts.
