  • Thanks for watching.

    FYI when riding a bike that heavy there are situations where sitting, and clamping to the bike it is more stable. Carrying the right stuff does have an effect of your trip, where you can go, how fast and at what comfort level. You can travel lighter or go fewer days, but we have our equipment worked out pretty good for that kind of travel.

    Also the riders are carrying video, photo, computer and other equipment that a normal group would not need to carry (no sag wagon).

  • 04:39 that is one seriously overloaded bike. With full fuel capacity that thing goes from carrying stock 16kg of fuel weight to 36kg of fuel weight. In my view that is too much off road when you factor in the panniers, racks, the dry weight of the bike itself and any other roll bags on top.

  • All of it ;o) herr Lomax

  • Those bike are NOT overloaded unless the panniers are full of lead. Get real people.

  • @ashmilo2112 I was yelling at my computer: "Stand up dude!"

  • I live in southern Oregon (Grants Pass) and we have a lot of beautiful "back country"

  • Stand up on water crossings don't sit down like the guy in the video. You can't see underwater rocks or make tight maneuvers as well sitting down. Any real off road rider would know to stand up on such unpredictable and unstable terrain. And I agree with the previous comment that these bikes are dangerously overloaded. 

  • This was amazing! Really makes me want to trade in my sportbike for an enduro! :)
