Aside from my commentary about the glowing windshield edges, the idling engine noise in this video is curious to me. Does this sound like the cam chain tensioner or something else? It doesn’t change when I pull in the clutch so I don’t think it’s the basket but I maybe wrong

I just can’t figure out why all these ADV bike manufacturers are stuck on these rattling vibrating twin cylinder engines.
It would be interesting to see what a 3 cylinder could do in a ADV bike.

Triumph has 800 and 1200cc triple cylinder adventure bikes in its Tiger line.

I wish I could put my zrx1200 engine on mine. I don't ride it much anymore but it is a rocket next to my S10.
