  • Can $1,000 motorcycles make it 1,000 adventure miles?
    Our other challenges didn’t cover a lot of miles, but they were still some of the most fun we’ve ever had. So, does covering more miles mean we’ll have even more fun? That logic may not be the most reliable, but our passion for and experience with ADV riding certainly is. We’ll be taking these project bikes on our Hooked on Phoenix ride, a popular route that takes you from Mesquite, Nevada to Phoenix, Arizona and back. With a mix of dirt roads, technical sand and rocks, and even a little slab, this ride has something for every rider and certainly the right challenges to push these bikes to the limit.
    This may be the team’s most ludicrous idea yet. Whether you think they are finally in over their heads or just adding another notch to their belts, you won’t want to miss a single second of it.

    So glad to see some vintage bikes in this, especially the Suzuki GS and Kawi KZ! RockyMountain you guys rock! Been ordering parts from you guys ever since I can remember. The RM cash is awesome, I always seem to forget about it, and when I placed my order last week for a few odds and ends, a $30 something order ended up being $5. Stoked for this series!

    Lol. Carb shit is so true.
    When it comes to buying used bikes. It needs the carb cleaned has about a 10% probability.
    It almost always means .... ( I don't know what broke... or it's roached)
    If your buddy ask you to fix his bike. Good chance it's a dirty carb lol but not when buying bikes from strangers

    Whaaaat I feel so offended! He bought the DR350N (or R) Model which is insane to ride when in good working condition. And the engine is also a real powerhouse with the flat side carb. I just paid a grand for a DR350N in pieces in Germany as they are pretty rare but sooooo good to ride!

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am a huge fan of the DR350. I have owned 2 and some of my best riding memories are on them. So believe me when I say that thing was a pile! I couldn't rip anyone off by selling it without fixing it, so I put quite a bit of time and money into it before selling it. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.
