Hi from England
Hi from England
Good morning everyone
My name is Chris and I’m based in Bristol, UK. I’ve had my Innova for a good few years now and have taken it on various adventures around the UK.
Last year I rode 2500 miles across to Austria and then Italy and back across the Pyrenees. An amazing trip! The bike was perfect for solo travel, with at times getting up to 166mpg
I have ridden quite a bit of off road on it too and have modified my luggage setup so it works perfectly for me.
I plan to spend much more time touring, maybe across to Ukraine next year so if you see and Englishman with a moustache then please give me a wave
Cheers

Re: Hi from England
Hey Chris, and welcome on board.
Nice pictures! Please keep on posting them.
I'm always wondering how this little motorbike can handle all that luggage. It's amazing to see people doing such tours with such a small machine. So obviously we don't need 100 HP / 1000 cc machines (as industry likes to sell us) for discovering the world.

Re: Hi from England
Hi, Chris
I’m excited to read more of your traveling around Europe.
Seems to look like we have to change innova.de to innova.com soon

Re: Hi from England
Welcome here,
Cross-Chriss,
nice trips. I did it one time Cologne-Siena and retour
including a tent. And later 3 trips in the "Pay-Basques"
(after shuttle-service to the south of France in a Kangoo).
166mpg? That could be 1,7 continental litre per 100 km?
Some of us use PUIG-Windfairings and more air in the wheels,
to get 66,66 km per litre.

Hi Chriss,
welcome here.
What did you use for a luggage rack on the front shield? (It doesn't look like the common basket)
Best regards,
Xir

Re: Hi from England
Nice lil scoot you have there Chris!
I looks like you have a blackburn outpost cage on the front?
I was thinking about mounting some of those to the inside of the leg sheild.

Re: Hi from England
Absolutely, that’s a Blackburn cage, I just
Mounted onto the three from bolts.
I’ve also got a fairly large array of bags on the inside to carry everything from bottles of water to fuel.... hopefully I don’t mix the two up

Re: Hi from England
Ah nice setup! I was thinking about using my apidura bike packing saddle bag in the middle there as the shape seems to suit the spine rack.
What's the set-up you have between the mirrors? Gps / phone mount?
Also do i spy an engine baseplate?

Re: Hi from England
A lot happy days with the quite famous, excellent, amazing Innova.
Unfortunately C125 Super is better

Re: Hi from England
Yep, homemade bashplate which works pretty well. Also have the GPS tomtom mount and then a Paddington bear with essential face mask for these times
