Ni3ous is on a distinguished road
Standing a lot on the bike needs good position of the rider for better control, so i bought on the OTR this handlebar risers, i rised it for 3 centimeters, which is the most you can get, without changing the cables and its tight already. So now the handlebar is higher and a bit forward than original. I have better control when standing now.


Now its easyer for me to ride like this:





For real offroading i like, the original gear ratios are not as its best for my kind of riding.
So i have put 13 sprocket in front and one bigger in the rear. Bike has now more power at low RPM, and I can ride it easier on tricky parts without damaging the clutch:


Because more mud and rock is better :P
I use Mitas C02, its cheap for 47€ here in Slovenia.


For unlimited rides on the unknown territory i made 12V power socket on the inside of the dashboard and handle for Garmin


Well sometimes rider falls of the bike, so i bought water pump protection on the OTR, that was a good buy, because on Enduromania that part saved my water pump:


When riding with my "motocross friends" i get lots of stones, so its cheaper to invest in prevention, i wound this protection at Touratech, surprisingly is cheaper than on the OTR, ad looks better too, has better solution for mounting:


I bought this also at touratech, but fall apart after first time I fell on the gravel road


So then I just welded a piece of steel instead, its better and cheaper.

When traveling, you need a place for luggage. Everything you want to buy is quite expensive, so I made racks on my own, gave it a laser cut...Total cost close to zero.
Original:

With the plate:

Side racks, for my soft luggage, and the grey tube is for my tools...


That is how I was packed for my trip to Enduromania
