    I don't fear uphill, its downhill on loose gravel and turns that screws me up. Its hard to not grab to much front brake when you feel out of control in that situation. Appreciate your videos, as a fairly new rider and older person, its helping my skills. LOL

      Same. Because of where we live and ride (coal mines - forest) you learn rocky uphills pretty quick, but steep rocky downhills with trees to run into along the bottom sketch me out. 😂

      100% this for me as well. I learnt to ride on those same pea gravel tracks Adam is on in Julimar forest. I love the up hills, jumping ruts and having a blast. Downhill, shocking. Nipping front brake, locking the rear and it trying to overtake the front. I can get it done tiptoe style, but I'd love to blast down the hills like the good blokes are doing.

      My XR650L is a tractor, I could climb 90 degrees hills with it, no issue, what scares me are loose gravel downhills as well, I have gone downhill "detached" from my bike a few times. 😅

    Absolutely love seeing the legend himself back on dirt bikes. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy your adventure bike videos but you are the man that got me to buy a dirt bike and your videos helped me practice on it. I remember taking so much from The Prodigy series and now this series is giving me so much more to practice. Your a legend that has given so much advice over the years. Though I don’t believe I’ll ever get to the skill level your at, I inspire to get close. Thank you Mr. Riemann!

    Great video Adam. It really helps being on a very light dirt bike. At least for me. Growing up in Southern California we had very technical riding in the mountains. Had a susuki tm400 that was great for hill climbs. Now at 70 things have gotten way difficult. But videos like yours are helping me remember what do to do. Sure would be nice if you could add some slow motion in portions of your videos.

    So you stop to check the view out😎
    And then carry on into the next valley n the pass thereafter 🤘

  • @garthlundquist3623
    @garthlundquist3623 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice skills demonstration, Adam. A few words about lower tire pressure would help too. Here in the PNW of the USA we run Tubliss in the rear sticky knobby tire so we can air down to zero psi if necessary to get up the hill. You can double the traction by doubling the contact patch.

    Big fan here, i absolutely love your videos and tutorials. Your videos with the Tenere 700 are the ones that got me into the world of motorcycling, and convinced me to start my driving school. About 6 months later after watching my first ARiemann1 video, i finally finished the driving courses and a week ago I just got my moto driving license in the mail and i can't wait to get my first bike. I would love to see you ride a single cylinder BMW F650GS ( or even the Dakar version; the 2000-2007 models) and throwing it around corners in drifts and jumps, i'm really curious if the bike can be handled that way. What do you think, could the bike be up for the task? I would have loved a Tenere 700 but the price is way out of my league, but the BMW is pretty affordable on the used market. Thanks, and cheers!

      Think about what riding you aim to do. How much will be paved, how much gravel, how much off road/trail. One advice that a lot of people echo is to get a 250cc if you aim to learn proper off road techniques. Its a lot easier to learn on a 150kg bike than a 250kg bike. Imagine you aim to learn to parallel park a car. Which one is easiest to learn on, a minicooper or a truck? The mini ofc.

    I have found I do WAY better on hill climbs in 2nd gear. I stall out too often in 1st gear but in 2nd I conquer most hills with no issue, and that's been with both my prior bike a YZ426f and my current bike the 2020 FC250. There is this one hill that's pretty nasty, side by side ruts a foot deep, steep like the one you had the front tire slide, loose rocks, and sometimes mud. too. Have trouble with that one but I've always gotten up it though a few times was a real struggle and was more of repeated wrecks that riding. But I've fully succeeded a few times too so I know I can do it and keep trying. Enjoy these vids a lot, but wondering how the bike was able to idle up that hill? My bikes would have stalled doing that.

    Hi Adam, I do a lot of my riding 2 up with my wife on the back of my Tiger 800. Carrying precious cargo dictates our riding style and somewhat limits tracks we can follow. Picking the right line and using the perfect amount of momentum is my tactic. That works most of the time but we have dropped the bike a few times.
    Would you consider putting together a video of tips for riding 2 up on adventure bikes? I bet there are a lot of riders out there who stick to the pavement because they doubt their own or the bikes capabilities when riding with a pillion.
