      You should try some! its not that hard and it greatly improves your skill! It'll help if you lock your rear wheel or your reaction to sliding! On asphalt it's like grip grip grip grip, slip shits on fire sudden grip again. But on gavel it's all smooth you can position yourself give more weight to the front and let it slide :) Also its sooo much fun!

    • @UVjoint
      @UVjoint 4 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      @@MaxMustermann-bm7qt Couldn't agree more. In 3 years, I had ONE big rear slide under hard braking on a highway, and I think it gave me a mini heart attack. Compare that to dirt riders who never seem to be going in the direction their wheels are pointed (never mind MotoGP riders like MM93), and it totally bears out what you said about skill improvement.
      What kind of motorcycle did you begin with on dirt/gravel?

    • @MaxMustermann-bm7qt
      @MaxMustermann-bm7qt 4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      @@UVjoint Depends on the kick you want, and the budget. I started with a klx250 2013, which is veeeryyy weak and heavy (120kg, which is a lot for dirt in combination with very little torque). But it was enough for 2 years. Generally there are three roads to pick. 2-stroke enduro, 4 stroke enduro/sumo and the dual-sport. The two-stroke is by far the lightest/quirkiest around 95kg and endless torque. But it is also the wierdest from the engine characteristics (i.e. no engine break/ wierd torque to rpm dependency)./ I personally prefere the 4-stroke. They usually come in 350 and 450cc. While the first is enough for all offroad terrain I ever encountered, the latter is more "comfortable" on the highway (gear ratio) and overall faster. You can also go for the 4 stroke travel endouro or the 700cc ish supermotos. Which work great but are too big and heavy for me (65kg) guy. I think there are currently a honda dual sport as 450cc and nothing much else. As mentioned above, my kawa was not ideally fitted for the dirt nor for the street. It was a classic compromise in that is wasn't great on dirt or on the road. If you wand to do some donats on the dirt, a normal bike (old, because paint) or scrambler will do. For light dirt and small trees, an old/used dual sport (You do not want a high performance engine for maintenance) will do. If you really want to get into the dirt, the cheapest option for new bikes are swm (base 2009? Husqvy). Beta has a beginners 2-stroke (X-Trainer), and KTM has the freeride (4 stroke). Gas gas might also have something cheap. I do not advise you to buy a used 'real' (high-performance) bike except, when you know the pre-owner they require much more maintenance and care than i.e. my old kawa that never had any issues. If i could start again/ my next bike will prob. be a 350cc 4stroke husqvy (bc. i want the 4-stroke and the clutch is hydralic, the suspension is slightly better than the x-trainer i own, but this are marginal upgrades for around 2000$). Hope this might give a brief overview of some possibilities. Cheers

I have never not owned a bike (or three) since 1969 and have seen/done everything bike related since before and after the internet was invented. You guys rock and have the best channel on TH-cam. You deserve to be at a million subs and climbing and I hope you get there soon. A sub from me felt like an inadequate gesture. Awesome to see local scenery in your vids too! You have the talent to go a long way and I wish you and your channel a speedy journey. Thumbs up!

      My (second) 2007 Bonnie is a fantastic bike, but I’m biased, a ‘67 Bonnie was my first love.
      I’ve had 27 bikes in between but back to Triumph for my twilight years with the benefit of no oil leaks and virtually never have to set the tappets...timing etc
      But whatever you ride or prefer is also fine as long as you manage to stay upright. ;)

    BTW, I just traded in my Tiger 800 for a Scrambler 1200, because I love the Bonnie, but I needed more practicallity. (Yeah, I know, that exhaust will fry my leg, but I am living in Bavaia, Germany, so we don't have so many crazy hot days here, and for me that exhaust looks sexy!)

From the rain to snow to 6 foot 3 inch surfing dude, I ate every nanosecond of it. Not sure if it's the wine, whiskey or beer I had tonight, but just sayin' . So no, your Promo shot did not work for me one bit... I'm now going to buy a T100 RIGHT now, despite not wanting one at all.
