All I can say is that when hills look that steep on a GoPro you know they are damn near vertical in real life. Great vid guys. Great to see Dave and Nugget out together again.👍
So happy to see another singles adventure. Missed seeing Nugget glad to see him again. The northern trip on the 701's was also one of the best series of videos I have seen. Keep the videos coming Dave great every time. I am from the UK and it is inspiring me to come to Australia to experience your great country and trails.
You have to admire guys like Nugget. I hope to turn on YT 20 years from now, and still see him tearing it up on a 100Kg single. The Aussie Forestry Service grades some pretty steep roads. What a great video. Thanks!!!
Wow, what an amazing adventure!! Thank you for putting this together. It was also good to see a bit of Dave riding rather than from just behind the camera footage. Nuggets loose riding is just so entertaining..
Awesome video and ride 👌 The 500 ticks so many boxes as a light weight adventure bike. Less is definitely more in adv riding like this. Cheers for the video 👍
Dave, thank you again for a fabulous singles adventure! My wife was concerned until I explained why 'singles'. Your videography and narration had me in the moment for the entire film. Cheers mate, Jamie 👍
Normally I can barely sit through a 20 minute video let alone over an hour! You guys are so entertaining. Great riding and banter. Wish I could come to Australia to ride with you guys. Cheers from the forests of New York State!
I love how Nug just smashes through, no line choices needed. And that's a sweet retro look husky. Had several of the vintage versions in that colorway.
Great vid Dave, love the high country. The definition of steep is when you can feel it on Gopro footage! An idea- since MADTV are about the only ones who do proper riding of adv bikes over multiple days on proper tracks and go into detail about stuff like suspension, how about a camera mount down by the side so we can see tyre and suspension movement. Would make for some cool shots I reckon.
Wow nice! I own a Husky501...wonderful bike for those adventures. Love to get some upgraded suspension....only upgraded the springs to support my Wisconsin Cheesehead weight. Amazing riding. Nugget is Legend....
This is the content i love, great video dave and was good to have the prospective from the other guys camera too. I need to get back uo the high country. Look forward to your next adventure mate.
Thank you. Yeah, you rarely see me in these type of adventures. They were good guys. Nugget has another trip planned down there that's tougher. Knowing Nugget it will be past there skill level. That down hill was right on their limits.
Never a dull moment with the Nugget along! WOW some steep trails. Glad to see everyone come out ok. Enjoy your videos. Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels
Glad to see all 4 riders got through. That's was some gnarly stuff at points. If they made a Nugget doll/action figure I'd put it on the back of my bike.
Tossing up 501 or 701 bit old so just tracks nothing scary. I think 701 bit easier on the distance will handle it a bit better. Love the channel well done Dave thanks heaps
Good to see some views of the VIC high country. Thanks for posting. Would be better if you had told us where you went, the road names etc. Next time you go up Mount Pinnibar, try it in the opposite direction, in the wet, at night! That would be a great video! Also, some of your buddies need to spend less on bling and more on rider training! I’m looking at you Six Days and 701! Get yourself on the Chris Birch rider training video package and it’ll change your life! Thanks for posting. Keep up the good work.
Looked like you guys had a good trip, great video as always. The Dog Rooter Family did a 10 day trip around the TAS recently. What a place to ride trails but The Chief Dog Rooter suffered a little and needed some bush mechanic work!
Dave and team, another great video. One big thing that's missing are the names of the tracks. Adventure riders like me that follow you use these vids to plan rides, looking for tracks that are 'must do' and sometimes ones to avoid. Even if you don't mentioning them while filming - it would be great if you add the track names in the editing (pop up's would be great). Looked like a fun couple days in VHC.
Awesome ride fellas! Well worth the wait to view. My parts have started arriving for the 501, hopefully I'll have it sorted in time for the Giant Loop Rally, 1st weekend of June. I'm going to give the Adventure Spec "tower" a try. Just a simple addition to mount my Garmin Montana 700 and a USB. I'm interested to hear your thoughts after putting your 501 build through some paces Dave. Nugget seemed to get along with his 501 very well. You've really got to tell us Jamie's sleeping pad model & manufacturer's name so we can stay away from them. 😉
Yet another epic from MADtv! On my second watching, this is among my favs (together with london-sydney, himalayan, and tropical punch -but really all of the feature length shows). Dave, sorry to be pestering you, but can we hope in a video with your final considerations about 501 vs 701? Will you keep them both? Or does the 501 “subsumes” the 701?
I've got my on the Norden Expedition, which really complicates things. I'm over biked and something has to go. The 501 suspension shits all over the 701s now. For the Tropical Punch series we just put in appropriate springs. The 701 is such a mile muncher, but for outback touring you need a twin. Tough times :). But you'll be the first to know, together with the other 164 thousand subscribers. :)
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV thanks. So the 501 is not a mile muncher? For the oil changes? (Anyway, seen the impressive specs of the new KTMs (especially the suspension), a 500/501 might well be heading to my garage regardless of being over-biked… 😂😂😂
I'm sorry...cooking skills with Nugget....perhaps not....Love you guys, Love the footage and reminds me of the time on Mt Pinnabar....broke my fibula up there and kept on riding for two days.....Davies Plain track is good too, on bigger bikes, lots of fun indeed.
It looks like you had a fun time. I see Nugget likes to ride the ragged edge most times. Someday I hope I can come down for a ride with you. Australia is a beautiful country 🍻
When people ask, Why we do this? I just show them vids like this. Blokes an girls, avin a ride an avin a great time. Moochin around on bikes. Thankyou Nuggit an Dave an the boys for the amazin ride you’ve taken us on, with your bloody good selves. Ay! Owes dem apples mate.😂😂😂 🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
What a great content. Australia is the ultimate adventure country. Many thanks for that! So you already tested Husqvarna 501, 701 and Honda CRF300 rally. It would be great to put these into comparison in separate video and which one would you buy if you could have only one. Greetings from Slovakia.
Nice adventure Nugget devised and a good watch. 👍👍😎😎 Good to see all the 500's carried the luggage for a multi day adventure well, I have a 501 adventurised a little its like cheating on fire trails. They are a great bike for there targeted riding I dont think I could do huge K's outback adventure on one though.
Done most of those track in my 4wd can i say your all mad, but im going to try it soon either on a xlv750 or w2nd hand africa twin. Great video guys can't wait for the next one
Well the husky's and KTM's did extremely well, lots of holy crap moments and great scenery, another excellent video gentlemen! Nugget takes out the lead rider award, followed closely by Dave, Nugget doesn't like to be overtaken hey Dave 🤣 Well done Nugget and Jamie for taking care of Illene she was very greatful. Love some of the mods on the CHILE KTM 500 EXC. Looking forward to the next videos guys. Well earned beers I reckon.👏👏👏👍🇦🇺🍻🍻🍻🥃🥃🥃
unbelievable stuff, everything in Aus seems to be turned up to ten. I do think if you like Jamie's number plate you might end up with one fashioned with some cable-ties befire long.
Fantastic video. Well done. Let down a bit by the low resolution quality. I can't even improve it in the settings. Did you have a 1080p version that you could upload?
Hi Dave. If you got the time to do a bit of narrative on some of the sights you go through that would be a great addition. Like the site with all the burnt trees, I would love to be a bit educated! :-)
I absolutely love nuggets enthusiasm haha!! You guys brighten the day for sure!! Thanks for filming Dave!!
Our pleasure!
All I can say is that when hills look that steep on a GoPro you know they are damn near vertical in real life.
Great vid guys.
Great to see Dave and Nugget out together again.👍
Yeah it was. We have more plans.
That's exactly what I was thinking! 🏁
This is the content I love from you the most Dave. And only nugget would have 322 unread messages on his phone 😂😂😂
Yep. My favourite to make. Easy and fun.
More of this please. Cheers from Poland !
Yes we will be back to take them on another adventure.
So happy to see another singles adventure. Missed seeing Nugget glad to see him again. The northern trip on the 701's was also one of the best series of videos I have seen.

I hope they are there as a record, because I don't think we'll be doing it for much longer.
Good on you guys for gettin your stalkers through there safely! Very happy to see ol Nugget back, and can't wait for the next one!
Yeah good to ride with Nugget again
Wow, what an amazing adventure!! Thank you for putting this together. It was also good to see a bit of Dave riding rather than from just behind the camera footage. Nuggets loose riding is just so entertaining..
He certainly is loose
Awesome video and ride 👌
The 500 ticks so many boxes as a light weight adventure bike.
Less is definitely more in adv riding like this.
Cheers for the video 👍
Yeah definitely Glen. I look forward to showing the full build video and testing, showing the suspension working.
What an absolute amazing trip on well sorted small bikes .
Perfect 👌
They are well sorted aren't they
I just love the energy of these guys. Great movie Dave.
Thanks mate. It was lots of fun
Dave I really enjoy all the hard work & Clubby.
Nugget is a riot, love me some more nugget.
What a group of riders you have there. Fun to watch. Some of that terrain looks rough!
The adventure is back!!!
My favourite content on the channel, always a blast to watch with good commentary and music
Thanks
YES !!!! Thats it!
Single Madness .... the true Adventure!
I Love it! Thanks for it!
Glad you like it, now spread the word!
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV
I made ist since years! I do it vor my self top show top everbody!
Nugget sleeping with his kneeguards... What a legend!
Couldn't believe that.
dude is a barbarian in every way
This is fabulous!! Great vid guys! I’m so happy Nugget is back!!! 😂
He never went away! Just found it difficult to ride together.
Love your videos mate!! Had the pleasure to work with nugget years ago. Absolute legend. Budgie says g'day!!
I'll pass on your regards.
Dave, thank you again for a fabulous singles adventure! My wife was concerned until I explained why 'singles'.
Your videography and narration had me in the moment for the entire film. Cheers mate, Jamie 👍
Thanks mate. Yes Singles. Tell her you're safe with me, I won't lead you a stray.
What a nice bloke Jamie seems ! Well done sir !
Nugget is my hero! Come see us in Arkansas , USA and ride the Ozark Mountains.
Great videos, just sitting back enjoying the sounds of the outdoors, the engine cadence without overdubbed music tracks.
good. Nugget wanted more music
Cracking return of The Nugget.
Great ride out and good to see the 501 out running trails.
Nice one Dave. Thanks.
It was good to get it out, the build is to come.
Wonderful trails guys, pure fun and keeps you attended. Just love it!
Thanks Mattias
Some gnarly tracks to test the 500's against.Great coverage thks.
Glad you liked it
Normally I can barely sit through a 20 minute video let alone over an hour! You guys are so entertaining. Great riding and banter. Wish I could come to Australia to ride with you guys. Cheers from the forests of New York State!

Yet ANOTHER awesome adventure -- you're living the dream, boys!
WE are very fortunate.
I love how Nug just smashes through, no line choices needed. And that's a sweet retro look husky. Had several of the vintage versions in that colorway.
Couldn't agree more! We have a lot of fun on those rides. Planning another very soon.
Always a good time when nugget is around :)
Yeah it was good fun.
Great vid Dave, love the high country. The definition of steep is when you can feel it on Gopro footage!

Yes I do that. Yes I had the camera, I was just having so much fun I didn't use it. I will be doing that for thr build video.
Wow nice! I own a Husky501...wonderful bike for those adventures. Love to get some upgraded suspension....only upgraded the springs to support my Wisconsin Cheesehead weight. Amazing riding. Nugget is Legend....
Yeah the suspension upgrades are excellent.
Huff and puff that was epic Jamie is a legend love you guys and what you’re about
Thanks, that was great fun. Good to ride with Nugget again and these new youtube stalkers. :)
Another lovely singles video, Nugget the legend and Dave the dynamite! Rest of you tick too! Thanks a ton, love from Dubai!
Thanks Harish. It's hard to make it sunnier in Dubai but we try! :)
Such a great channel. Thanks guys! My shoulders hurt just watching you.
Yes it was a bit of exercise.
Nugget is the only single wombat out there! Great fun!
WOMBAT, I'll tell him that :)
This is the content i love, great video dave and was good to have the prospective from the other guys camera too. I need to get back uo the high country.
Look forward to your next adventure mate.
Thank you. Yeah, you rarely see me in these type of adventures. They were good guys. Nugget has another trip planned down there that's tougher. Knowing Nugget it will be past there skill level. That down hill was right on their limits.
Hey Dave. Thank you. Inspired to find some more dirt in NZ. Great to see Nugget. Cheers
I love riding the South Island in the mountains behind Naseby
Truly an awesome adventure... thank you for sharing
It was a great trip.
That was great! I wouldve been shiting brick on some the those rocky downhill sections on my AT.
Yep, I would have been if I was on an AT. As always they're steeper than they look on the go pro.
Been waiting for another full length. Great to see Nugget being nugget again. Great ride! Thanks Dave!
Yeah we need to do more of these. They are more fun than testing bikes and what happens happens.
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV don't get me wrong, we love the bike tests and reviews, but sometimes a Good 'Ol adventure is needed.
Great video! Looks like a lot of fun.
It was!
Dave - it was a great fun to watch you and the crew riding with the singles. Looking forward for the next adventure.
Lots coming up in the next couple of months
Top blokes!! Nugget is the best hahaha soo good
a gem
Never a dull moment with the Nugget along! WOW some steep trails. Glad to see everyone come out ok. Enjoy your videos. Around Bend Oregon out on 2 wheels
I really have to get over to Bend and ride with Harold from GL
Epic ride. Thanks for sharing
Thanks Curt
You built a Unicorn Dave!🦄 I like my Husqvarna...🤠👍💯
It's brilliant. Very happy
Love it, what a awesome trip, good onya Nugget awesome show off respect, bloody legend :)
The great leader.
New intro and editing: off the charts!
Yeah, we thought we'd lift it and it looks good.
Glad to see all 4 riders got through. That's was some gnarly stuff at points. If they made a Nugget doll/action figure I'd put it on the back of my bike.
I'd like to see that.
utterly superb ! love you guys.
Thank you!
Awesome! Been waiting for this, will watch it tonight 👌
Good
Epic vid Dave, there's no better way so spend Sunday evening, cheers!!
Glad you liked it. It was fun to make.
Have to watch this later Dave. Got a day of 809 R adventuring ahead of me!
That's the priority
Seems like it’s been ages since the last video adventure.
Looking forward to sitting down to this one.
Great to be back
Absolutely amazing as always..!
You mad my day .. and editing 👌
Great!
brilliant video fantastic scenery and characters
Thanks Graham
@7:20 . Did you say you're riding along the Murray again?. Snowy River mate.
Oops :)
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV 😂.
Excellent adventure guys. Well done!
Thanks
That’s steep Boys
Awesome stuff yes that 501 looks great
Thanks. Yeah it's a good build. So happy with it.
Tossing up 501 or 701 bit old so just tracks nothing scary.
I think 701 bit easier on the distance will handle it a bit better.
Love the channel well done Dave thanks heaps
Hey Dave now this is content 🎉😊 good job 🎉😊
I'd like to do more of these.
Love this . Every video is gold. Good on ya!❤🎉
Thanks
That slow motion crash at 14.35 didn't even need a speed ramp, new Guiness World record 🙂
Definitely need to get to the Vic High Country one day soon!
Great place to ride.

We never say where we went but occasionally was provide hints, either verbally, or in the video.
A great video, really enjoyable and entertaining. I've been waiting for this one for a while. Keep up the great work. 👍
Making this puts me right in my happy place. Great fun to make, easy to edit, can't get any better than that.
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV Couldn't agree more. 👍 👍
Great adventure guys.
Thanks Dan
great video as always, you have got some f'in great riding out there boys - well done 🙂
Very lucky with our riding.
Looked like you guys had a good trip, great video as always.
The Dog Rooter Family did a 10 day trip around the TAS recently. What a place to ride trails but The Chief Dog Rooter suffered a little and needed some bush mechanic work!
Ha ha! Love live the Dog Rooters!
That 501 looks like the perfect rig for those tracks. Can't imagine taking a bigger twin on it - at least with my skill level. Light is right.
It's great fun on those trails.
Great video 👏🏼
Makes me want to pack up the bike and get back to the high country!
Yeah, we are already planning our next ride.
that's an awesome ride !
Thanks
Yeah thats the high country,full of pucker moments😃good luck getting your rear end sorted Dave😘
Nearly sorted. Worked on it over the week end.
@@MotorcycleAdventureDirtbikeTV ...not with Nugget I hope🤣🤣🤣
great skill, anda top, top single track amazing thanks for sharing 👌👌

Looked like a fun couple days in VHC.
We provide hints but generally we don't provide track names. Every now and again they'll be an exception.
Brilliant episode 👏 , would love to hear riding tips ( downhill , uphill ,water crossing etc ) from Nugget or yourself Dave for us beginners 🙏
Sounds good!
Awesome ride fellas! Well worth the wait to view. My parts have started arriving for the 501, hopefully I'll have it sorted in time for the Giant Loop Rally, 1st weekend of June. I'm going to give the Adventure Spec "tower" a try. Just a simple addition to mount my Garmin Montana 700 and a USB.
I'm interested to hear your thoughts after putting your 501 build through some paces Dave. Nugget seemed to get along with his 501 very well.
You've really got to tell us Jamie's sleeping pad model & manufacturer's name so we can stay away from them. 😉
Yeaj good point. The Gl Rally should be great.
Another great video, well done. I note you never list the name of the tracks riden, I wish you did. They say sharing is caring.
Nope, you've got put the work in. We provide hints occasionally, that will do you.
Bloody great trip, very envious , must run in the family the fuel issue in the car hahha
He drives me mad.
Yet another epic from MADtv! On my second watching, this is among my favs (together with london-sydney, himalayan, and tropical punch -but really all of the feature length shows). Dave, sorry to be pestering you, but can we hope in a video with your final considerations about 501 vs 701? Will you keep them both? Or does the 501 “subsumes” the 701?
I've got my on the Norden Expedition, which really complicates things. I'm over biked and something has to go. The 501 suspension shits all over the 701s now.

Well done lads … bloody good ride 👌very very lekker trail
Yeah it was a great trail
Great video, I get a laugh out of the subtitles when they are trying to pick up what you are saying...

Fantastic video. Well done. Let down a bit by the low resolution quality. I can't even improve it in the settings. Did you have a 1080p version that you could upload?
Ah Dave, its you. The video is recorded and published in 4K. Have a look at your settings.
Hi Dave. If you got the time to do a bit of narrative on some of the sights you go through that would be a great addition. Like the site with all the burnt trees, I would love to be a bit educated! :-)
Yeah I could have done that. I'll do it for the next one.
Another great video, great footage, fyi you can wash your bike in the upright position, you don’t have to lay it on its side
Ha yes. I'll pass that onto Tom
