This episode reminded me of my Scotland trip in 2008. I was with my girlfriend, she was on her Ducati Monster 1200 and I was riding my Suzuki GSX 1200 Inazuma at the time. I got t-boned by a car at the entrance of Dunrobin Castle near Golspie on the east coast. After that incident the Suzy was no more and I was on crutches for a few days. Then I got a rental car and we finished our trip. I was driving the little Clio and she was riding her Ducati and we stopped every other mile to take pictures because the scenery kept getting better and better. This part of the UK is still on my bucket list. Solid video Sam, as always! Cheers, Lupo
Ahh bud that sounds awful! Glad you recovered and got back on the bike! Definitely worth visiting, you could do a few days there then head up into the Highlands. That would be an awesome trip!! Thank you! Appreciate you watching and taking time to comment!
Lake district is one of favourites for a bike holiday. Always have to do Hardknott and Wrynose passes when there. Love them so much. Really enjoyed watching your vids.
I highly recommend staying at watermill Inn and brewery 2 miles outside windermere in the village of inns (next to petrol station.great location amazing beer and food.
Rode along buttermere a couple of years ago, in late July, it was a nightmare for traffic. Revisiting this year in June, so hopefully be a bit better. Looking forward to seeing your Hardknott pass upload.
Ahh that's a shame! If you manage to get there without the mass tourist drop in summer, its great! Mind you, glad to be on the bike so we could blast past most of the traffic!
man dude, those were some serious views you guys were riding through! just beautiful!!!! can i ask what the clapping is with those cameras? i've seen other people do it.....sláinte!
Stunning isn't it!! Haha yes, it's to sync up the footage for editing. So you will have a peak in the audio in both cameras to be able to line it up! Thanks for watching
@@SamVBikes ohhhhh didn't know that lol i'm not computer savvy at all lol and you were still shots, I'm sure they were edited look really freaking good!
Haha thank you! Yeah I didn't think it was needed until I had more than one camera and realised how much of a pain it is to sync up the cameras without it ha
Nice upload Sam, what a wonderful place to ride out. We are so lucky to have places like this to explore. Keep up the great work, it's a Sunday evening highlight every week 👍
Great upload. Did 6 of the passes and the struggle in a day last November was awesome. You should have stopped in at Honister cafe at the slate mine. You should do a trip upto the Yorkshire Dale's National Park for some great roads. Keep up the good work
Thank you! I spy a Tuono in your display pic... very jealous!! I did clock that when we got home, I obviously didnt process there was a cafe as we went past!
The Tuono has now been replaced by a KTM 1290 SAS (your vids helped me with the decision) I loved it, it was my 3rd V4 but I got fed up of buying back tyres and my last ride I only managed 74 miles before the fuel light came on 🤦♂️ so I felt the big Ktm was the way to go. Its not disappointed, and I can get 200 miles to a tank!!! You should definitely have a look at the Yorkshire Dale's would make some good uploads.
Ahh I can't fault you for switching up! I'm definitely going to have a Tuono in the garage at some point.. but between Tuono and the SAS, I'm going to be buying a lot of rear tyres haha! Yes I want to get back up to the Dales. Did my first rideout there but need to get back up to explore it properly
You should definitely have an Aprilia V4 in your garage at some point that engine is a work of art. Look forward to future uploads. I'm hatching a plan to go do the Nc500 loop in a day later this year and really test the Ktm.
Haha yeah I had the pleasure of blasting one around LA and the canyons for a day earlier in the year and it was sublime! I thoroughly recommend the Crief CloverLeaf tour too! That was really good, I'd argue maybe better than the NC500! But either way, you'll have an awesome time
Hello,il,faut les bon pneus et la bonne pression,pour la route tes pneus préférés ?j ai les Bridjestone A41. Origine sur la ADV R 2023 ,je les trouve très bien ,bonne accroche et véloce sur route sèche ,mouillé pas essayer dans le sud Antibes ,Alpes maritime en France,beaucoup de soleil 😎
It's all on, but the bikes in Rally mode which has the 9 stage, dial-able traction control which is tied to wheelie control. Anything under stage 4/5 will let you wheelie pretty high. I have it on 1 most of the time because it let's the wheel come up pretty freely, but still saves any overly aggressive angles when the back wheel steps out!
Hi Sam, I just ordered a 2023 Super Adventure S yesterday, picking it up next weekend, What i want to know tho is do you need to remap the bike when fitting the arrow can? Great vid again mate.
Amazing! Congratulations on the new bike. No need as it's just an end can. I've had mine done by BHP UK (vid earlier on the channel) but its definitely not a necessity! Thanks for watching
Hi just about to make delivery of Honda NC750X DCT and are looking to add the mods you have done crash bars, sat nav fog lights and wounded if you could give me hand at fitting that at a price of cause as I have see you do them.
I really enjoy your videos, but I had to stop watching them due to your constant giggling. I get the excitement, but man, it's waaaay to much. Sorry, I might have to unsubscribe it's that annoying.

You've a wicked naughty laugh ....................
The Lake District is beautiful.
Haha! It is isn't it! Thanks for watching

It's great isnt it! Never been up on the bike before and it far exceeded my expectations! Thank you, appreciate it
I highly recommend staying at watermill Inn and brewery 2 miles outside windermere in the village of inns (next to petrol station.great location amazing beer and food.
Ahh amazing! Thanks for the reco. Ill have a look for the next trip up. Definitely feel the trip was a bit rushed so will be back

You have some really nice roads and places there..
They are great to explore!

Always first video I watch on Sunday before bed... Love it as always mate, top effort!
Haha love that! Listening to me constantly say "wow look at that" helps you drift off! Thank you mate
Excellent , I'm going to the lake district end of may and can't wait !
You'll love it mate! Some corking roads and views!
Nice upload Sam, what a wonderful place to ride out. We are so lucky to have places like this to explore. Keep up the great work, it's a Sunday evening highlight every week 👍
It's definitely a new favourite of mine! Haha thanks, glad you enjoy it
Quiet roads in Lake District 🏍👍
Must be the time of year! Still plenty of Range Rover snobs by the lakes though 😂
Great upload. Did 6 of the passes and the struggle in a day last November was awesome. You should have stopped in at Honister cafe at the slate mine. You should do a trip upto the Yorkshire Dale's National Park for some great roads. Keep up the good work

Salut Sam ,tu roule en mode rally et sur 1 sur route mouillé ,ça ne glisse pas!😮
Salut! Non ça ne glisse pas ! Mon vélo précédent n'avait pas de contrôle de traction, vous apprenez donc à utiliser l'accélérateur comme contrôle !

Another excellent vid bud
Thank you mate!
Hi Sam, quick KTM question, when you pop those small wheelies going over humps, is your anti wheelie turned on or off?
It's all on, but the bikes in Rally mode which has the 9 stage, dial-able traction control which is tied to wheelie control. Anything under stage 4/5 will let you wheelie pretty high. I have it on 1 most of the time because it let's the wheel come up pretty freely, but still saves any overly aggressive angles when the back wheel steps out!
Shame the GT doesn’t have Rally mode, it’s either on or off and my balls aren’t big enough for “off”.
@@stevewils3402 Haha! I assume the Tech Pack on the GT is the same as the SDR then? So you'd get race mode instead of rally

Awesome bike. Not any good for two up. GS Adventure is so much a better bike
I've seen a few videos where the Pillion has preferred the Super Adventure, which I was surprised by. A matter of opinion
I really enjoy your videos, but I had to stop watching them due to your constant giggling. I get the excitement, but man, it's waaaay to much. Sorry, I might have to unsubscribe it's that annoying.
I really enjoy riding my bikes. If that isn't for you, I understand.
