One major complain I had with mine was the very light flywheel which made it susceptible to stalling at very technical stuff at low throttle. A great bike when it got going. Had the 265mm suspension travel variant.
Thanks for that.. middle of winter and all i think about is riding after viewing this. Gotta add though, have any of you guys ever been riding, in file, on the far right of a dirt road and met head on two riders, riding side by side. I havent but my buddy spent 3 weeks in the hospital because of it. As good as riders think they are I cant think of a stupider riding example. But, lets ride.
Thanks Zim your right it can be dangerous for sure I have collided with adv bikers in the middle of nowhere after not seeing anyone for hours. They were side by side going around a turn very scary. The road in this video is a dead end and our second time up it. So we were pretty certain in was clear. Always good to step back and think safe. Cheers
Man, the two top contenders in my search for an upgrade from my KLR... how to choose! They both look so good... gotta find a way to ride both I guess. 😄 Great riding by the way, you make those beasts look like 250 motocross bikes... ok maybe 450s 😁 That was some awesome country you've got to ride in too. Haven’t seen your channel before but I’m impressed. Ride safe.
f...g awesome riding. you managed to get that katoom to handle like it was 450/500 ktm exc enduro bike. really cool vid. up there with adam reiman. hats off to ya dude. liked alot.
Im not the one who could tell you unfortunately. The owner loves it and can get out and rip it up for sure. He's having a hard time with after market suspension upgrades (Im sure there will be options soon) but seems to be a great bike. My choice is still the 990 love the bike...
Hey Ezkool I agree with sadigov it doesn't get the best fuel economy thats for sure. When we travel distance we always carry a fuel cell with extra fuel.
Awesome video guys!! Always fun watching peeps that can ride these bikes like they're meant to be ridden. Keep uploading videos, love watching them. Wish you had more to watch and longer videos. I'll keep an eye out for you guys. Watch out for my orange 990. I'll most likely be changing a flat tire. Two in the past week.
Thanks azdesertdog good times for sure. Snow can be tricky for sure but if conditions are right can be a ton of fun. Check out my "Snowy roads" video, snow all day and the nights I traveled were as cold as zero degrees. Heated gear was a must! Happy trails
Thanks! I was filming as we rode to Cherry Creek. The only asphalt traveled was getting to Saratoga Springs. Most of the video was going over the mountains by Eureka.
W Hey Carl well I just had a boy my first and bought a second house that Im gutting and remodeling sono vids in the near future. I hope you checked out the other vids on my channel. Cheers
As usual wonderful video and riding...thanks for the music too which fits nicely in the mix...:)
Great video
Loved that shot at the end, both bikes hitting jumps on 2 track. Great video, nice skills!
Great video. ..and great riding skills! , I'm looking into the Africa twin and it's good to see what it's capable of. Steve
Watching this makes me miss my 990, they are just the best, gentle on low throttle but will rip in an instant.

멋진 영상 감사합니다. 응원합니다.
I'm totally respect your skills Sir, great ride!
Really cool! Looking forward to do this myself.
great ride yet my heart is with KTM
Yes I agree. I am totally sold on the 990's and on KTM.
lol you make those things look like they are 300lb dirt bikes with those little jumps. awesome.
Like the swing arm cam stuff
Big bikes... bigger stones (to ride them like that)
Awesome vid! Which front fender on your KTM?
That suspension working hard tho
Awesome video quality man! Was it shot in 1080 or 4K?
Thanks Riccardo... Shot in 1080
Greatwhite ADV which camera?
Hero 4
Hi mate how does the Ktm compare to the Africa twin? Comfort, fuel range, handling on and off road? Cheers.....
Im not the one who could tell you unfortunately. The owner loves it and can get out and rip it up for sure. He's having a hard time with after market suspension upgrades (Im sure there will be options soon) but seems to be a great bike. My choice is still the 990 love the bike...
cheers mate my choice too would be the ktm 990 adventure but heard you can get very poor fuel economy in the ktm? hows your economy?
ezkool motown I own a 990 adv. Unless you ride like a grandma, fuel economy is extremely poor. But I love mine anyway.
Hey Ezkool I agree with sadigov it doesn't get the best fuel economy thats for sure. When we travel distance we always carry a fuel cell with extra fuel.
What is camera's brand?
Awesome video guys!! Always fun watching peeps that can ride these bikes like they're meant to be ridden. Keep uploading videos, love watching them. Wish you had more to watch and longer videos.

Another awesome rip! Out of everything I have never liked riding in snow. I saw enough of it back east.
Thanks azdesertdog good times for sure. Snow can be tricky for sure but if conditions are right can be a ton of fun. Check out my "Snowy roads" video, snow all day and the nights I traveled were as cold as zero degrees. Heated gear was a must! Happy trails
Hi, cool video! Would you please clarify me about the suspension travel? Is it 245mm? Thanks.
Way to rally boys! I still got a tail rack plate with your name on it.
Love the vid.. I ride the AT.. may I ask what tires were used on the AT?
Yet another awesome video. Thank you for making these! What are you using to cover your fork seals on the KTM?
Thanks Brian. I have sealsavers on my forks. They are neoprene covers that help keep dirt from damaging the seals.
çok güzel 👌👌👍👍👍
Where are riding? I'm here in Salt lake and we are always looking for new places to ride. Africa twin owners well. But great videos!
Thanks! I was filming as we rode to Cherry Creek. The only asphalt traveled was getting to Saratoga Springs. Most of the video was going over the mountains by Eureka.
Sensacional
Great vid
มันสุดยอดเลยเพื่อนเอ๋ย
Awesome video, any more coming soon?
