I have a 30 year old DR 800 ......still going strong.....easy to work on .....pulls like a train. And a 20 year old Yamaha TTR 600 .......they all go well if looked after.
At the end you show the Africa Twin and then, as if it's a different bike, you show the Africa CRF100 (same bike). On top of that, you start cutting in shots of a guy throwing around a Honda 300 as if he's riding an Africa Twin around the dirt like a small dirt bike. I have one, it's heavy. I love it (bullet on the street) but although I ride oit on back country dirt roads, only the most experienced dirt riders can ride it like a true dirt bike.
The Transalp 750 have not been too long on the market but I believe it is also a good contender to this list. But in reality all Japanese bikes in this class are very durable.
With all respect, but you missed 2 absolute "tanks" here in your video. 1. Honda Varadero , I know some guys they have more than 400k on their Varas, with the original motor and gearbox! 2. Honda XVR750, the real Africa Twin, I am curious if the "great electronic features" of the new one will work in 30 years like the old one does today 😉 If you're looking for absolute reliability, there's almost no way to go past Honda, period!
I had a V-Strom 1000. At 70K miles, the fuel pump was getting noisy, but at 40K it had a strange problem. It wasn't charging. The rectifier checked out OK, so I thought it must be the stator, but when I took it apart, all the magnets on the rotor had migrated to one side.
@@ulrichholl364 but i have heard on some forum that Suzuki v twin 1000 cc engine is bulletproof.. that engine easily covered 2.5 - 3 lac kms without any problem..

Wrong, the Africa Twin is not the Landrover defender of motorcycles… it is the Toyota Land Cruiser!
So true
Land Rovers leak too much oil…
Tenere 700 is true defender motorcycle.
@ only if it leaks oil regularly:)
So true! But he missed out the Varadero and even worse, there are the former models of the real XRV Africa Twin missing in the video!
Suzuki DR-Z 400, Kawasaki KLR 650, and Honda XR 650 R
So lesson here is Japanese bikes. KLR650 seems to be missing from the list.

Old XR600R is also a beast
It's beyond comprehension that he didn't mention KLR 650. I mean, that's the Hilux of motorcycles.
Thank goodness for Japan and their dedication to proper dual sport/adventure, bikes, including those that should’ve been on the list but were not.
The real Toyota Land Cruiser of bikes is the Yamaha XT1200 Super Tenere.
Kawasaki KLR650 and KLE650 are bikes that lasts forever
I personally clocked 400k km on the KLR650 and 290K km on the KLE650
Crf 300 is dream. It just cost around 17000 US DOLLARS in NEPAL 😢😢😢

A Japanese bike will do anything except hold resale value....

Drz400 is missing!!!
Yes, but it has to be ... ''Motorcycles that last forever''
You forgot SUZUKI DRZ400S.
Yes, but it has to be ... ''Motorcycles that last forever''
Yamaha xtc 660 tenere 150.000ml
Where is Suzuki DR-400S ? ? ?
versys 1k is sport touring, crf and xt250 also not adv but cross.
This seems like an AI created video. Last part where Africa Twin is repeated, and CRF300 is in shots looks like an AI- created mess
me wondering where the transalp 750 is😅
CRF300 Rally at #9, and then proceed to show footage and images of the 300L??!
💪💪💪
Ai generated shit with a lot of bugs....👎

Thats typically on 1000 cc V twins from Suzuki but as i know easy to fix.
Any engine related problems you faced on v strom??
@@lokeshdeshwal5288 friend had that problem on a SV 1000. The dealer told us its common on the 1000 cc engine, starting at 50 000 km or later

And what’s the difference between 1 and 3 ?!? Different color? I have the AT and I know why.
What is the difference between the third engine and the first one? I think they are the same!!
I cannot stand these AI voices
Kawasaki made it on this?!
Xr650 should be number 10 . 50,000 mi isn’t much at all .
Xa xa great video try no bmw gs
BS prefabricated AI video.
I had a Tenere 700. Sold it because the gearbox was dog shit.
Probably most reliable engine in that category
And now you have a Suzuki burgmann 125 😂😂😂
I also had the T7 junk got rid of it before the first oil change got a rally 300 an have not looked back
@@thomasbiancuzzo9889 comparing a sluggish 300 with a t7?
Probably you put olive oil inside.....! T700 is the best engine outhere....
@fastestway.1 would be so kind to at least name us in the credits for the photo of our bike you use?
