[TruckingBiker1967]

Yes looking for the follow up vid. Thanks.

[TruckingBiker1967]

Yes. Looking for the follow up vid. Thanks for

[stallebrass]

You gonna do the follow-up video of what you decided to dump along the way or what you had to buy because you forgot to take?

[AtlasRider]

@stallebrass That's a good idea. I'll try and post a video about that.

[ADMIND3R]

jesus what the hell kind of bike you riding?

[13RuffRyder]

@ADMIND3R its in the video... its a klr650.

[AccidentalBroadcast]

Niiiiiice!

[KrazyKali69]

too much junk, and wheres your 9mm for the banditos?

[sinblesser]

HAH! You have feet gloves. ^^

[24allix]

btw its not a hat, its a tuque ;)

[navythomas8]

Aint No way in hell your gonna load all that! Trust me!

[MadR6]

nice man, cant wait till you start your journey

[vChipGivesThemSight]

that's so much stuff that if i would have all that gear with me, i would search the right stuff longer than really needing it :P

[Gagepo]

Dont forget to bring some oil. Never know when you might need to check it! Just a thought, ive hear klr s can burn oil sometimes.

[Swipe650]

I know you've probably heard all the stories but if you are travelling alone, anything to allow you to be tracked in case you get kidnapped and held for ransom?

[csmaster65]

Are you going alone?

[MadStu]

Great vid mate, you're gonna have so much fun. Me very jealous!

[MadStu]

haha, sven takes an axe for camping too!

[justamar]

Man I want to do this when I;m out of college, are you planning on updating as you go? Where do you plan on sleeping, besides the tent? no bags? sheets?

[pawelk22]

omg dude, yoru guide are like - this is a sky and that shiny thing a sun. Common, every sane human is able to figure out what he should take for a trip.

[02wheels]

good luck fitting all that on the bike. i love your klr , wish i had one.

[solimiansky]

whos going to house sit for you??

[solimiansky]

u forgot sunglasses bro, and a spanish short dictinonary or phrase book wont hurt

[oogeer]

don't shave you face, let the beard grow out during your trip, cast away style!

[F8H]

@oogeer lol

[JimNtexas]

Very interesting, thanks!

[dinkoman]

It will be interesting to see how the bike will perform at such a high altitude. You seem well prepared for every circumstance though so have a great adventure, i'll be watching closely.

[199Xray]

good shit!

[bjhanish]

Don't think I could fit all that in my car, let alone on my bike.

[twistedkeys1]

nice i can't believe you fit this all into a 7 min vid! hahaha little fyi if you don't already know... is that you can post 15min vids now :) good luck!

[svengalie]

Hope you've got some heavy duty 8mm tubes. And that toolkit aint gonna last 5 minutes when the road aint tarmac.

Safe riding.

[choopdewoot]

there are some portable solar panels you can buy. try getting some so you you can charge your stuff while your camping

[Moosepiesandwich]

You are going to be such an expert when you get back, great adventure!

[uiiz100]

im so jelous of what your doing bro, its so awesome GOODLUCK!

[simon44]

Are you bringing a light Rain Jacket for walking around? Good luck mate!

[AtlasRider]

@simon44 My Germing heated jacket acts as a nice lightweight waterproof jacket

[simon44]

@AtlasRider Inventive idea - I like. Layering is the best way to go for the rest of your clothing. You got your Sun screen & mosquito net? Duck tape is another useful item. As are baby wipes (e.g cleaning your visors and ... *ah hem* anything else you may need to clean). Your making me jealous man. I wish you all the best.

[F8H]

@simon44 Duct tape is magic on a roll!

[kd4ysi]

man thaats a lott of gear for a klr to carry i think with enough bunges oull be able to haul it through where all are you going through any states

[Ramiiam]

You might want to consider the Lonely Planet guidebook, unless there's something better specifically for motorcyclists.

[AtlasRider]

@Ramiiam I already have digital copies of Lonely Planet books

[Ramiiam]

@AtlasRider

That's cool!

[stuie195]

graet vid, tnx

[F8H]

You should make a video of you fitting all that stuff on your bike. That would be interesting. :D

[arakitai]

I dunno man, you're taking a lot of electronics into some pretty poor countries. Have you though about whether you'll stick out too much riding with all that gear? I've lived in poorer countries and I tell you, a bike like that sure would get people's interest.

Just a thought...

[AtlasRider]

@arakitai I'll try not to stick out. I've seen people with gear 10X as expensive as mine. All the gear I have is expendable in my mind if theft does occur.

[arakitai]

@AtlasRider If those cases are removable overnight you should be okay. Especially if you have a nice shrill motion alarm on the bike. By the way, I think what you're doing 100% nuts, and therefore 120% awesome!!!

[AtlasRider]

@arakitai I can remove my cases in 5 minutes, and I will have a motion alarm on the bike. So I am trying to mitigate risks, but not going overboard about it,

[cashstore1]

Mosquito repellent. I don't recall seeing that in your stash. What you and I take for granted as a normal thing to do may get you in prison in a different country. Not sure if taking the axe is smart. Those custom agents may be working with a different set of rules we are not use to. I don't know about the electrical in the countries you are going to, but in Europe and many other areas of the world you need a converter. Europe uses 230v for everything. The hertz may be different too.

[F8H]

@cashstore1 The electrical outlet and voltage is the same here in Costa Rica and all of Latin America if I'm not mistaken.

[cashstore1]

@F8H That will be good for Bill. I wonder how it is for all of South America. 

[AtlasRider]

@cashstore1 Forgot the mention the repellent, and I already have the converter

[cashstore1]

@AtlasRider That's good!

[theninjakid10]

Wow Atlas, your vlogs are going to be so interesting to watch. Cannot wait to see your journey.

[Petersworld518]

Suspension will be getting a workout on this trip!
