    I agree with all of these points that Dusty makes. I lived off my 23' KTM 890R for 3 1/2 months and 10,000 miles last summer from NM to Canada and every state to the Pacific Ocean.. I trimmed my weight down to the bare minimum and was able to enjoy so many BDR and off road sections of riding because I wasn't overloaded. Washing my second pair of base layers in a stream, river or lake along the way in a dry bag with some suds is all you need. And if you bring a water filter you can get drinking water from many epic waterfalls along the way!
    I second the opinion on Motoz tires. Haven't tried the new Tusk 2Track yet but I hear good things. With Motoz Adventure I easily get 6000 miles of mixed usage. Rallz I get over 4000 and better offload traction. I usually run 30-32 PSI but will air up for really long highway stretches as Dusty mentions.
    Having a plan, communicating that plan with expected check in times, and a satellite communicator on your body is essential for many places like the Chihuahuan Desert, Mojave, Sonoran Desert and many remote mountain ranges out west. Just being able to check in at the end of a long day to text family or friends that the day ended ok can be part of that plan, not just waiting to use the device for a medivac.
    In addition to Dusty's great videos I recommend Chris Birch's "Say No To Slow" series and Adam Riemanns' channel. They both speak the same gospel.

    Practice advancing your skills, get comfortable with a little extra weight of tools, spares and basic camping gear and go get lost out in the wilds. We're incredibly fortunate to have such an epic amount of landscapes at our fingertips here in America...
    Keep up the great videos Dusty, I've always enjoyed them the last several years. Sorry I didn't meet you in person at the Mosko Moto Dusty Lizard in Park City last September. By the time I heard you were there, the weekend was coming to an end and I was headed for Moab...

Shaded picnic tables and sink toilets. Close to Calcite Mine road and other fun trails. West 38 classes are awesome!!!

    Hi Dusty. By far, you're a favorite to watch. I now have a big adventure bike, a CFMoto Ibex 800T. Already dropped it in the decomposed granite in southern California. I could not pick it up, even tried making some trenches for the tires to go into. Still slid sideways. Got help, thankfully. At 71 and so many injuries over the years, dirt naps are what I'm now afraid of. I do have a dirt bike, but it's not something to ride like. I want to go long-distance exploring on a trip. Where it may be 50 or 100 miles of highway to get where Im going. Like, hmm.where does that road go type of thing. It would be nice if you could do a video on other techniques besides trying to pick up a heavy beast alone. Thanks for being a normal person.

    Side note. I learned from personal experience that even on pavement you should watch the angle you park on. One time I wasn't paying attention and parked on a rather steep hill with a heavy grade for rain fall and not only could not get my bike off the stand while on it, I found myself parked in a spot that I couldn't clutch out in first and ride on the peg, cowboy style and I couldn't exactly roll backwards do the the embankment. Ended up having to clutch walk it back up the hill until I could swing a leg over.

    The former thruhiker in me is onboard with your message. Except Merino wool. I think Patagonia Capilene is the far better material. Way more durable, just as breathable and if you are washing one and wearing the other the synth vs wool argument goes out the window.
    Also... You need a separate set of sleep clothes you must always keep dry. If you wash clothes the night before and then ride all day in the rain, you still need dry clothes to sleep in!

    From the motoz tires I've seen, the max pressures are actually lower than 42psi. I found, I like to use this formula. GAWR (front or rear) ÷ (Tire max load ÷ max pressure).
    Example : 2020 CRF1100 fronts stock dunlop GAWR(346LB)÷(ML 467LB ÷ 41PSI MAX) = 30.3PSI
    Motoz GAWR (346lb)÷(ML(467lb)÷33psi max) = 24.4PSI.
    *i use it as a base line pressure, but these specs pulled off tires I had on hand

  • @kuhndj67
    @kuhndj67 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    All good recommendations... some additional ideas to consider:
    -In the Continental US - don't carry food at all - dramatically lowers bear risk (to near zero), weight, and hassle. Note that to not attract the bears you really can't carry ANY food (no snacks and so on) on your bike at ANY time. Bears can smell even packaged food and from a LOT farther away than you'd think... and they won't know the difference between a snack you carried during the afternoon and one that's still there... they'll rip your gear up in either case.
    -Do pay a LOT of attention to expected weather (before you leave) as well as react to weather while riding. Excessive cold (below about 55f) and excessive heat (over about 100f) require preparation/planning pre-ride and adaptability during the ride. On the last 2 long US tours (one in May/June, one in Aug/Sept) I had to adapt to temps ranging from below freezing to over 104f.
    -BDR's are fun... do em! If you've not done one before then give yourself extra time over what the community reports (just in case).
    -If you're like me and like to ride a bit hard on dirt... then get a feel for the ride and strike a balance between fun and risk. On my last TAT ride I was super excited so came out hot... and dumped twice in the first 2 days, once because of wildlife and the second on silt hidden ruts. After that I dialed back the ride (average speed dropped from near 50 to around 42... not huge but significant) and over the remainder of the ride only had one zero speed mishap (wrong turn on Engineer Pass, dropped it trying to back up). Still had a ton of fun but did so with reduced major mishap risk. What's cool is that you WILL get a feel for how much risk you're taking after a week or so. (this is for dirt... if I'm on tarmac I am much more conservative since accidents tend to be more dramatic)
    -Plan for service - I schedule knobby replacement at 2000-2500 miles, and oil services as needed (at the same time for my 701), generally knobbies have life left at 2k but if you're at service then do them early instead of pushing them. I also ran MotoZ's but switched to MT21/D606 because they're better on dirt... but the MotoZ's were a great balance of durability and performance.

    Water! Drink enough water to pee multiple times a day. That's how know you have enough. Anyone can last a day or two being short on water. If you want to stay alert and responsive to changing conditions stay hydrated. That's coming from a former grunt in the Marines who was never a heat casualty but treated many.

    The. Africa Twin. has the worst kick stand. So much of my stopping involves looking for a good place so the bike won't tip over or that I won't be able to get the bike back up again! (I am short so its hard to get leverage to put the bike straight when it is leaned over a lot)

    I always carry more water than I think I need. You never know what might happen…

    What do you keep in your backpack during your daily rides? How much water, what else?

      The Mosko bladder holds 3L. Also keep a hat and walkie talkie in the backpack.
