      I grew up on both and, both have their ups and downs. I also love this series! Mtb really honed my MC skill and vice versa. I might have been the first mountain biker too, as in 1979 I welded motorcycle handlebars to an old bike, put a 2 speed kickback rear wheel assembly on it, and hit some trails. Later the front forks broke off… evidently the typical old bike wasn’t really up to the thrashing I put it through 😅.

    Eric, besides your courage to get on a motorbike, having hardly ever ridden before, that is already immensely courageous, let alone the two years that await you on this great journey. In addition to all these factors, your videos are simply wonderful, they are true postcards and tourist guides, as well as well edited and with excellent soundtracks. I have been here since the beginning and I have not missed a single video of yours. When you arrive in Europe, around spring, if you want to detour a little to the south and pass through Portugal and Spain, you also have a lot of history that dates back centuries. You will be very welcome and well received in these countries. It is a pleasure to follow your adventures. Best regards and have a good trip. Carlos from Portugal

    The KLX 300 is an excellent, low and easily maintained dependable motorcycle for your journey. Well done.
    Should you want a little more pep, consider swapping the front sprocket from a 14 to a 13.
    For riding, you’ll find it much easier and more capable if you use momentum, don’t be afraid to get a little speed over the most difficult terrain. God bless.

    People seem quick to offer advice on how to “fix” your bike. Yes some bikes and tires are better suited to different styles and conditions but the reality is your bike is perfectly capable of handling that terrain. It’s your lack of skill and inexperienced mindset not the bike.
    I’ve seen people from the Asia Pacific through the Middle East on scooters and 125cc with bald road tires, overladen and with pillions negotiate horrendously technical terrain due to their skill and experience.
    Don’t blame the bike or the tires. People on here seem very quick to think the best way to make up for lack of skill is to start modifying their bike vs actually training.

    I have a 2007 KLX 250. I ended up changing the radio on the sprockets to give me lower gearing. Of course, that makes it even slower on roads but it performs much better on rocky, mountain trails. An issue I ran into, to accommodate a larger rear sprocket I ended up having to move the chain guide forward and I was no longer able to use the chain guard. The front sprocket can be reduced a tooth for a modest gear reduction without the modifications.

    Eric, you have a lot of skill balance and confidence from your mtb riding previously.
    That you would dare a round the world trip just a few days after getting your 1st bike with next to no m/c experience is absolutely awesome.
    It looks to be that you got stuck between some rocks on that road. Your front can dig in or move or your stopping can be just behind 1 rock with just enough climb that combined with the uphill and small motor, will stall the bike. Same with the rear, or both tires even. I didn't see you check where your tires were, when you get stuck lean your head and check your tire position.
    Being tired also makes it easy to think time to turn around.
    Thirty years ago I rode with a much younger guy who pushed me to keep going, he got continous enjoyment out of watching me struggle but also knowing I was improving my skills and more importantly my confidence level. Once, stuck on a hillside in the snow/wet mud, I simply gave up after 5 attempts to get the bike to climb that (then tough, now easy) hill. I said go home and bring the truck, I'm done. Well, I gave it one more shot and bulled my way to the top totally exhausted sweaty worn out and smiling like a kid.
    You're learning OJT style, on the job training. That's hard and you should be proud of yourself.
    Keep sweating, keep smiling and keep posting. We'll all be watching and admiring.

    As someone else mentioned, gearing it down a tooth up front might reduce the amount of stalls you're having and help in te lower speed stuff, but also be more responsive when you do get on the throttle. Thats a small engine, and all the extra weight is sure to be having an effect on torque/throttle response. Possibly increase clutch life too! Massive kudos for what you have taken on. I'll be following right to the end. Looking forward to you hitting Australia🤘🤘

    Solo rides in remote locations can get sketchy. More often than not, slow and timid approaches work less than medium speed with an attack body position.
    The gyroscopic effect of the tires for balance only kicks in at curtain speeds. It's scary but once you commit you morec likely than not make it through

    @tribalbc 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    Good to see your learning that unlike mountain biking going up is so much more fun than going down. You can push it a lot more as well because when things go wrong you can just chop the throttle and everything slows down really fast. Going down you have that nasty thing called momentum going against you.
    When you need to turn around in a tight spot look for any rise in terrain to the side of the trail. Use this to work smarter not harder. Ride your front wheel up the feature as far as you can. Pull in clutch and turn bars to initiate your direction change. Rinse and repeat until you get the bike turned around. Can take 10+ times if tight to get turned around but no effort used.

    Ok, been watching on the tv since you left.. For a new rider, your doing very well. Leveling up very quickly. The editing and music is top notch. The music and plateau leading up to mountain had a very Skyrim vibe. Mixing camping and hotels is a great habit, keeps your travel flexible. I've only been to Van Isle but went through northern states to get there, and darted on and off hwy 3 back to Ontario. That mountain looks like Montana. The bear tooth pass has all kinds of those trails that eventually turn into horse trails. Your going to love Washington, Montana, Wyoming. We live on a continent that provides multiple life times of adventure✌
    Loose section like those rocks, you can sometimes get away with getting off the bike and just feathering the controls. It's a little trickier up hill but also works in snow and sand and mud. And an enduro technique is to bounce the rear suspension by loading your weight back and throttling as suspension rebounds, like a wheely but less braap.
    All the best dude🤙

  • @MotoWot
    @MotoWot 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +17

    A couple of riding tips for you: I notice you get a lot of false neutrals. Adjust the height of the gear lever, if you are having trouble getting your boot under it, adjust it higher. Otherwise drop it down a bit so you don't have to move the lever so far to get into 2nd gear. If you still have the original Kawasaki delivery oil in the engine (hopefully not), changing to fresh oil may help a bit too. Lower tire pressures would have helped a lot on the rocks in this video. I would have tried 18 psi. Thanks for the videos.

    Eric, some Epic progress since you entered the Yukon. I must admit that the mountain road with the thousands of baby head boulders was looking pretty treacherous ans well as being exhausting work for any rider. Good decision to backtrack as I suspect it was not going to get any easier. Are you still on that worn rear tire, not even sure I would have attempted it. I bet it is good to get on some great places to camp and settle down, relax and enjoy the wilderness. Keep going mate, really starting to get engaged with your journey.

    wonderful video fella, what a remarkable place that mountain range was 🙂
    advice: you need to learn about holding momentum on these rocky climbs or knowing when to say enough, or even unloading the bike and doing the climbs to make it easier on you and ultimately the bike - you are getting yourself out there in the nowhere and if you burn the clutch out it's going to be a long f'in hard couple of days getting out on foot and then figuring out how to get the bike out afterwards....The sand, this climb, i can smell the clutch from across the atlantic - take care man and keep exploring, loving this journey of yours and i am seeing your sub count very fast so it's obvious that many others are watching too, the rewards are heading your way - stay brave 🙂

    Eric, great videos, drone shots are amazing. I'd suggest looking into doing kickstand pivots to help with your turnarounds in tight situations, the KLX's kickstand is more than strong enough. Good luck in your travels.

    Eric, i have the certainty that if you keep to treat the clutch of your bike so hard, you will burn it very soon. So as soon as you will be back to the civilization buy a front sproket with one or two teeth less and you will get a big improove or torque, thats what you need in your bike as you always go up on the mountains charge as a donkey at a low speed.
    Your clutch will thank you..... ;-) . P.s. your drone footage are wonderfull and the music combined with them perfect........ciao warrior ;-)

    • @snomanizdman
      @snomanizdman 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      YES! Drop a tooth or 2 on front sprocket! If you dont need bike to have higher top speed make it easier to ride slow by gearing down!!!! Probably has a 15 tooth...can go down to 13. Should cost ya like 15 bucks.

    • @silverdale3207
      @silverdale3207 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Trouble is going down one or two teeth doesn't drop 1st gear much but drops your top speed by a lot more so it would really compromise his road speed

    • @Nicoya
      @Nicoya 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

      Dirt bike clutches are meant to be abused, and a lot of times you actually want taller gearing in low traction situations to keep from spinning the rear tire so easily. What he should be packing, though, is a replacement clutch so he can use it like it's designed to be used, but still get back to civilization once he burns through it.

      @@silverdale3207 It will drop all gears equally. Droppin tire pressure and lower gearing are the 2 things that will make the biggest cheapest improvement for his off pavement adventures. He is not running out of gear on the slab from what I have seen. Spending the bucks on suspension setup for that massive load he is carrying would be $$$ well spent too.

    • @silverdale3207
      @silverdale3207 7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @snomanizdman It only drops it an equal percentage if you think about it, so say you go 10 percent smaller cog, at 10kmph you'll drop 1kmph but at 100 you'll drop 10kmph,I do it on my dirt bike on tight courses but it makes it very revy if you any straights.
