  • Buying a BMW in the summer. Not even looking at KTM.

  • Love how they were all like , they think we cant do it . and his face were all epic :)

  • charlie's such a whiny bitch."no free bikes for us? how DARE they" lulz, spoiled actors....

  • too much preparation, arent they over doing it.... all these courses etc.

    but to take a doctor along with you..........wheres the adventure in that??????????

    getting in trouble is part of the experience as well.

    have you seen motorcycle diaries, where che gurera does south america in 50s......

  • Aw Ewan talking about his laser eye surgery,naw :3

  • KTM => epic fail!!!!!!!!!

  • that researcher woman Asia is BEAUTIFUL!!!! lol "D

  • this dude's eyes pop out like a MOFO

  • Why didn't they just buy the bikes??

  • @TheMegaCamro

    I was wondering this as well. Having a corporate sponsor would certainly help in initial costs and potential service issues down the road. But, I couldn't imagine Ewan and Charley not being able to afford a couple of ~14K adventure bikes. I understand they will have other expenses along the way, but still.

    This would basically be free advertising for KTM. Their bikes are used in some pretty serious racing, so it's not like they aren't up for the job.

  • @opmike343 At the same time it could be bad publicity. I know first hand how tough ktms are. But two actors dead on ktms..that's something no small company can take. You can't compare bmv with ktm.

  • KTM what clowns.....BMW winners.

  • Damn, KTM would have been perfect for the trip. The best marketing strategy that would have cost KTM about $30k with returns of MILLIONS. Seriously, hope they fired "Mr. Kablahblahblah" for the biggest fuck-up.

  • i think the bmw was the better machine for the trip anyways.

  • @Tnuggz420

    Why?

  • @opmike343 I think its a heavier duty machine and the frame and components could handle the amount of weight they needed to carry. the ktm was a really nice machine as well though.

  • Boorman's reaction to KTM is priceless.

  • Why do they beep out what Charley says, when a second ago, he was saying fuck and all that. Haha.

  • @TheeLazyWay I was thinking the same thing!

  • lol the office is in the ladies toilets

  • so much fucking preparation. why don't they just get their visas and camping gear and just go. so much unnecessary planning and forethought that it just ruins any spontaneous experience that would have been possible.

  • @schitaco because you kinda can't just go around the world without preparing.

    you need to make sure you'll have all the equipment you need when you need it, and all the right papers to get through the borders, you need enough food you don't starve, and you need to make sure you always have enough money.

    just picking up whatever's lying around to go on a trip around the world on bikes? yeah, great idea.

  • @schitaco Because this is life and death at risk. It would be extremely irresponsible and impossible to 'just go'. You must be a bloody idiot to think they could just go, if anything it makes the trip much more fun and will put their mind at rest to know that everything has been properly planned. Have you ever been on a road trip? Planning a route and what you want to do and see is a large part of the excitement of the whole thing. Maybe you don't realise how enormous Siberia is.

  • @schitaco YOUR AN IDIOT!!

  • KTM would have lost millions in sales , how many people do you see on bmw gs's theses days fooking loads

  • Does anyone know the title and artist of the tune used for the end credits please?

  • I love the point where Charley gets all pissed off and the sound is like "*beep* *beep* *beep* BMW *beep* *beep* business."

  • @TheSoulSearcher1 lol BMW rapes KTM

  • @TheSoulSearcher1 you go to my channel, and there are 2 playlists, LWR and LWD. The parts are put in the right order.

  • HAHAHAHAHAH K T M S U C K S

    

  • the honda transalp wold have been the best!

  • KTMs would have been the perfect bikes for their trip but too bad they messed up big time. Charlie still laughs when he sees a KTM breakdown many years after this incident - watch his Sydney to Tokyo By Any Means trip and you will realize why he's laughing.

  • KTM can talk the talk 'Best offroad bikes in the world' but when it came to it, they didn't even dare to try and walk the walk. BMW make amazing bikes, they weren't even fazed by the idea of riding the bikes all around the world, on roads that are in worse condition that most MX tracks. I know someone who complained to the BMW dealer that the inbike tool kits were poor, the guy laughed and said 'This is precision engineering, what are you going to do with a wrench and a couple of screwdrivers'.

  • KTMs would have been dropping body panels and chains all over the world. lol

  • What do KTM's actions say to the average person?

    "We don't have confidence in our bikes."

    "If they'll f**k over a famous actor, what will they do to an average customer?"

  • using the heavy BMW's to do this trip just makes a perfect statement to KTM.

    well done KTM, designed a bike to do the job and the one time they get to show off they mess it up.

    good on ya charily and Ewan, wish i had the chance.

  • Obi Wan Bikenobi

  • well, at least they ended up with the better bikes :D

  • ktm done fu&&ed up

  • Haha, in your face KTM, bet you're sorry now!

  • i don't believe thaat guy has done that he looks way to heavy

  • KTM feels like a bunch of fuckin dumb asses now, Boorman and McGregor brought in TONS of business for BMW

  • I love the motor-bike cameraman. He still has to achive his license :P

  • @CoolArhoni Claudio rules.

  • was quite cruel and harsh to say they might fail..... everyone who would attempt to do this in the sheer love of biking and adventure should get a chance..... especially these guys...

  • bmw ist the best bike the ktm is shit

  • I'm not pro-KTM, but I've been riding a Kaw forever and all my BMW friends have so many problems its not even funny....2 friends just replaced their transmissions....still beautiful machines but not unless I have money to blow...

  • lol, Charlie goes "i told you it was wrong to get that guy here" 6:52 and Ewan is like "this wouldnt of happened if we choose bmw" lol

  • the girls all look very hot!

  • cant say that about the russian girls! HEHE

  • What part of the video are you talking about? All I see on this one are the Russian Girls and the office girls.

  • hAS THIS BEEN EDITED SOME OF IT IS MISSING IT SEEMS

  • @LAZADALEDGEND Lol i think youve made the same mistake as me........Ive been watching some parts of Long way Round.

    And other parts of Long way DOWN..

    Restart........DAMN!

  • This is great. I will do the same thing. Who is with me?

  • @TheHideoshi What go around the world?

    I wanna do that with my friend but in cars :P

    But i got 3 years left untill i can drive......And i gotta get a car......And i gotta have money for food and everything on the journey......So.......Suppose Ill be getting ready when im 25 :(

  • Were the ladys of the team choosen by beauty or what? Cause they´re all quite pretty. KTM shame on you!

  • 1:59 is the best shot ever!

  • the bmws are the better bike full stop

    its a better built bike looks nicer than ktm

    im glad they went with the bmw in the end

    Too bad ktm turned them down

  • but bmw is better

  • Proper thing to do... tear down the KTM posters.  Big Mistake KTM.

  • KTM asswipes! think they are feling like shit right about now... i think charly and ewan had had to go with the beemers from the get go anaways! long way ROCKS!!

  • LOL "I haven't fully penetrated a rubber dolly in a while." Ewan, ya wrong man. XD

  • hahahaha it was Friday the 13th

  • Damn Russia, just give them the visa already!!! Nooo Ewan don't get laser eye surgery stick with the glasses. lol xD he looks good wearing glasses.. xD

  • Charley wants to use the stove to hear the tent up... oh gosh. LOL KTM failed.. that dude prolly got fired. rofl.

  • 7:13 : Oh..fuck. I haven't ever seen such a angry face from Ewan. He looks a little like a Sith^^

    sry, I'm German x]

  • He turned to the dark side lol.

  • lol, i bet KTM feel like idiots.

  • lol

  • i bet KTM feel like twats for letting this opportunity go

  • lmao I bet someone at KTM lost their job over this one

  • i love when ewan holds his face when he's shocked or something.

    it's so cute.

    i hate when guys say that girls always do it, but its cute when the guys do it to :)

  • 7:27 ... KTM doesn't owe you a set of 2 or 3 brand-new motorcyles, Charlie. If u want the KTMs so badly, buy them, like the rest of us have to.

  • and give KTM all the free marketing? This series is basically one big bike advert. Two bikes would have been worth the gamble for KTM.

    BMW obviously saw that!

  • Yeah, big mistake on KTMs part. Its just that Charlie's whining irritated me a little initially. Now I cant help but smile and laugh a little when I see him have his fit. Kind of like Ewan is doing behind his hands at 6:23. ;)

  • my dad bought that bmw bike because of this show !!

  • your probably buy that KTM....

    if the moron not canceled for the sponsorship...

    KTM is full with morons......

  • haha charlie is pissed! he has a fucking right to be too.

  • Wow, what a great idea - it takes some balls to go on a trip like this! This is a real adventure!

    Even with a back up team of professionals - Ewan and Charley still ROCK.

    And, a little side note: why do Russian authorities (especially small bureaucrats) always have to make everything unnecessarily complicated - drives me fucking crazy... and I am Russian myself, haha.

    If you want to accomplish something - try to find a way to do it, don't look for excuses not to..)))

    Cheers.

  • I agree with your comments on Russian authorities. I'd love to live and work in Russia, but I'd rather not have to fill out reams of paperwork.

    And I'm quite shit at speaking Russian...but I can work on that.

  • Russ' face is priceless at 2:00 haha

  • lol - the best part of this clip is the look on his face :)

  • Genius marketing decision by KTM! What were they thinking???

  • ktm is a shitty company.

  • Idiots!! they really showed it up KTM:s face when they succeded with the BMW:s! to be honest...I don´t think the KTM:s would have held together!

  • great show! thanks!

  • perfect! greets from Poland folks :-)

  • thankks for uploading these :)

    ewan is amazing :)
