I know you Aussies hear it all the time, but don't ever take it for granted that you have the most spectacular riding environment in the world!
We are quite lucky!
The 34th min drone shot was pure epic,
That was my favourite shot we took on the whole trip, it was just the perfect time of day and perfect conditions.
Nice ride mate. It’s so good that you can do such things with your brother.
Good practice for the Simpson crossing that you’ll no doubt be doing soon. 🤙
Thanks heaps, Lance, I’m very lucky that I can!
It sure was and it’s locked in for next year - I’ll be sure to rewatch your crossing for research for the trip 🤙
Great video, thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed!

Gday Josh it was great to meet you both you and Fabian .....another great vid mate
Thanks heaps mate and likewise!
That drone shot at the 34 min mark gave me goosebumps!
Had the same feeling when editing mate!
Couldn't believe how good it came out.
@@AusMoto I'm trying to sell my road bike to buy an ADV bike, I can't wait!
@@MyRandomLife247 It's the way man, gives you the best of both worlds!
Awesome work mate and killer vid!
Thanks heaps mate 🙏🙏
Finally had some time to sit back and watch the whole video mate. Well worth the wait! Throughly enjoyed it!! Great editing and awesome you can do this stuff with your brother. Keen for the next one 😎
Thanks heaps mate, appreciate the feedback!
Love it!!
Thanks heaps!
Just came across your channel,Great work,enjoyable to watch,You have my vote.
Thank you very much!
Epic as man congrats all the planning, all the prep and apart from some small issues a great trip all round. Head ons on sand dunes is a big thing, glad you survived that one. And the trusty 250, man what a bike.
Thanks heaps man, the WR performed absolutely flawlessly. 4300k's and all I did was adjust and lube the chain!
Didn't burn a drop of oil and I was ringing its neck out on the freeway and in the sand!
What an epic trip fellas! Top-notch edit, and that drone footage is just incredible.
I would have missed you blokes by about a week in the Flinders, and it looks like you found some way better tracks than I did, I might have to get some tracks from you before I go again.
Thanks heaps mate and yeah, we only spent two days in the Flinders, so mostly just hit some tracks around Arkaroola and then some of the iconic Gorges but I'm super keen to go back!
Amazing landscapes and I felt I was riding with you !
It sure is and thanks for commenting!
Love your work fellas 🤙🏻
Watching that section through Arkaroola brought back memories from my trip this time last year.
Keen to see your Simpson crossing 😉👍🏻
Thanks heaps man 🤙
I’ll be rewatching your series for pointers 😉
Nice mate. I like the different camera views and variety. Colour grade looked nice. Intense but made the desert and sky look amazing. We have a beautiful country. You’ve made me want to visit there! Cheers.
Thanks heaps mate, glad you enjoyed and definitely worthwhile heading out there at some point!
Awesome guys, great trip 👍next time ask for some cream with your qandong pie, delicious.
Thanks heaps mate and damn, cream would have been perfect on it!
Still delicious but will remember for next time 👍
Great job on the video!
Looked like an awesome trip. Googs Track was tough going.
Thanks heaps, mate, it sure was!
FANBLOODYTASTIC edit and ride Mate 😮👌 the little bikes did a great job and as reliable as ever 😎👍
cant wait for the next outing 🤔😁
keep well and ride safe-ish both you guys 😉🍺
Thanks heaps, Jeff, appreciate it mate! 🙏
Bro…what a sick adventure! Loved watching this man, you could actually see the marks in the sand where the 4x4 had jumped on the brakes close call👍
Thanks man, yeah it sure was bloody close!!
34:45 Wow incredible scene and incredible ride, well done gents
Thanks heaps mate!
Well done gents. A lot of k's in a short few days. Big effort.
Thanks heaps mate, it sure was!
How good was that intro, very pro mate 👌 what a mint trip and epic vid Joshy thanks for sharing mate looks like you lads had a great time. Nice shirt there too man 😎👍
Thanks mate, a bit different to my usual style of video but enjoyed making this one 👌
Shirt is fkn mint, was the only tshirt I brought and wore it for like 5 days straight 😎
@@AusMoto 😎🙌 keep up the good work bro
Nice one mate. Looks like it was an awesome trip!
Thanks mate, it definitely was!
They sound like a small bike what are they ?
Bladders of fuel or water or both? What's ur range on the sand track ? That's why I'm getting a 200 xr honda to do some tracks!
@@marceltromp1454 Yamaha wr250r and Honda crf250l. We were using fuel bladders.
Nice ...
Thanks heaps!
Nice video bud...
Thanks mate!
Great video, would love to ride the Googs Track right now 😂. See you guys in Thailand for a ride....😉
Thank heaps!
It’s definitely a challenging but fun and rewarding track 😄
I’ll definitely visit one day for a ride, it looks beautiful!
Wow! Go Josh! I didn't know we had such beauty in our back yard. (I'm a dandy boy) Watta great ride. Great editting my bro. Wow! Wish I was there too.. Very inspiring 😎 stop twisting my arm to buy another bike... Arghhhhhh 😉
Thanks heaps man 🙏
I too didn’t know until my trip to the Flinders last year, but there is so much of Australia to explore that is amazing!
Haha isn’t that the way man, the amount of bikes I’ve bought because of watching TH-cam vids hahaha
@@AusMoto Im still considering a vstrom for the romantic, take the missis adventures 😉 that's the other arm you've twisted.. Seed is planted hahahahaha
Maaate so good thanks for that. Flinders has been on the bucket list for a while. You can keep the bloddy Googa track though 😂. Please compare the Flinders to the vic high country for me ?? Also just like to say a big hello to your Bro. You guys are so lucky to be able to do this together. Keep up the good work and love the new drone. I may get one at some point. But the Roosters ride fast and long not much time to organise extra camera shots. 😂
Thanks so much mate, appreciate the comment! 🙏
Tracks are much easier in the Flinders, but it’s quite a bit more scenic!
Very lucky and yeah, it takes a lot of time to set up the extra shots 😂🤣
Excellent vid. Do wish a map was included.
Thanks Jeff, noted for future adventures!
What fuel range do you get from the safari tank? Currently have a ktm 890. Looking at getting a second bike - wr250r or drz 400. Had a drz before so know these bikes well but not the wr250r. Thanks.
Hey mate, I get about ~350kms with Safari. If you go the 18L IMS, I believe you can stretch it out to over 400km!
Great vid/trip and awesome memories. Now for the Simpson! What Yamaha is that you are on? Like the strom waiting in the garage and I’ve got an older one and did Simpson on a wr450f, but don’t find it as good with the small oil capacity for big trips like yours
Thanks heaps, Tim!
I am on a WR250R. A bit heavier then the enduro bikes but perfect for a trip like this where you're doing big k's!
Epic trip. How many litres did you use for the Googs all up?
Thanks heaps mate!
We carried about 23 litres each but used no more then 16-17 litres.
Well done guys great riding - mate you must have done a short course on movie editing that's really well put together
Thanks heaps mate, greatly appreciate it! 🙏
Holy shit you definitely earned a new sub
Glad you enjoyed it mate, thanks heaps!
Epic adventure! Just wondering what the regulations are for lighting in downunder. Your headlights seem pretty weak for night riding... high powered lights not allowed? Or your bikes dont have nuff juice to power up a larger LED maybe?
Thanks heaps!!
No regulations, it’s just the stock headlights on these bikes are like candles. After this trip, we’ve decided we need some auxiliary lighting haha!
Impressed by your content! Your rides are so adventurous. 🌄 Could you share tips on battling fatigue during long rides and keeping yourself in top shape? Excited to know!
Thanks heaps! 🙏
Main thing is taking breaks at least every hour, even if it’s only for 5 minutes, it makes a bike difference!
@@AusMoto thank you!
what model is the Honda? Great to see light bikes doing these trips
Thanks mate, the Honda is a CRF250L, great bike for the money!
hey mate! where can I get these go pro wind foams you guys are using?
Hey mate, they are called HSU Windslayer on Amazon.
@@AusMoto Thanks brother!
250 is more than enough it looks like.
It sure is, and when you get to the tough stuff, you're glad you are on a lighter 250!
You skipped Mt Finke? Its a great spot to camp.
Great video.
Thanks Nerb!
Yeah, in hindsight, we should have camped at Mt Finke but we got there around ~3pm so had a lot of time to spare. We didn't actually realise that the sand continued past it and it actually got harder, so we should have stayed instead of making the push to Kingoonya which made that a very, very long day haha!
Looked like a great ride guys.
FYI, there are heaps of sand tracks to ride between Melbourne and Googs track.
Murray Sunset np, big desert, little desert, the border track etc.
I know it was your aim to challenge yourselves on googs, but the above
May have been good practice.
I also think you were too loaded up for the sand.
Just advice, not criticism.
See you on the trails 😎
Yeah, we’d been out to Little Desert once before but it’s hard to get out there because still quite a long way away.
And as for the loaded, I think we packed the least amount we could for a two week trip, but we are always looking to optimise the setup!
Thanks mate!
where did you get your storage boxes and how did you put them on?
They are Andy Strapz panniers made here in Victoria, Australia and they are attached to pannier racks
@@AusMoto thanks for replying and giving me this information I might have to get some of these 👍
my LAWD! Absolutely amazing and that's it, I'm selling my KX 250F and getting a CRF 450RL. I don't do many track days anymore and the RL will handle the trails I ride. I could tell that there weren't enough words to describe the joy and fun yall were having. That ride home had to be brutal. That was a great video bud
Question: Will you be making a vid on the maintenance practices yall did while on the road? Or was It just basic maintenance and mostly worry free? I only ask because I was told that an oil change is needed every 600 miles on a dual sport bike, but that seems a little excessive. Since I will likely be joining the dual sport world in the near future I am about to be doing a lot of research and question asking.
Thanks Dave!
I wish they sold the RL here in Australia, because I probably would have bought one, they look like a great bike!
I probably won't because it was just very basic, cleaning, lubing and adjusting chains. For the CRF, you'll need to change the oil more often then on something like a WR250R/CRF250L which have long service intervals, so it wasn't something we had to consider on this trip.
@@AusMoto Yeah it's weird to see all the different models but for some reason each country has their say so on what comes in and what doesn't.
Okay that's good to know and I'm sure it made the trip that much more enjoyable. I could go on and on but those dunes were killer and looked like they tried to take yall out a time or 2 as well😃
Mate I did the Simpson on a 450 Yamaha and that was two oil changes starting and finishing at Marree. Should have been three really and mine holds 1.1 lt of oil. It’s the downside of these bikes and probably why so many like DRz. Chain lube is tricky in sandy situations and daily checks, even twice daily if you drop them. Rad guards pay for themselves very quickly.
Great ride guys, nice footage. Would it be too much to ask for you to show on a map where your route is so us non-Austrailians could more easily appreciate where you rode?
Thank you Tom and a great suggestion regarding including the map, it's something I definitely should have done.
Completely enjoyed your epic trip, approximate cost...fuel,lodgings, etc.?
Thank you!
Unfortunately we didn’t keep track of costs but most nights were about $70 each when we were not camping. Fuel was probably $2-300 for the entire trip.
Great video Josh. Well done! I notice neither of you had any sort of wind protection (wind screen) on your bikes. Do you regret this at all? You certainly covered a lot of distance at 100kph. I'm planning a big trip on my 300L and I DON'T want to put a screen on like you guys. Am I mad?
Thanks Leigh!
We both used to rock windscreens but both had damaged them on various rides previous to this one, so we decided not to run them. Especially on the 250l, when dropped in the sand, the extra pressure on the front cowling when digging into the sand/mud caused it to snap multiple times.
You feel more wind on your chest for sure, but it’s manageable. The only thing that sucks is bug splatter on your phone/navigation but other then that it’s fine!
Perhaps you can make another video, reviewing the bikes...
Bike reviews on these two coming soon!
Epic ride guys! Love it. Had no idea that kangas eat biscuits 😂. How did you find the bikes perform? Comfort?
If yiu did this trip again, would you stick to same sized bikes or something bigger?
Thanks heaps mate!
They did pretty well for little 250s. I think a trip like this is probably best suited for a middleweight ADV bike, as there was lots of HWY and open dirt roads. The trade off is that you'll struggle more through the sand on a heavier bike, but definitely doable.
If I did it again though, I wouldn't hesitate to do it on the WR and I plan to use it for the Simpson crossing next year which is a similar trip.
@@AusMoto thanks buddy. Simson crossing will be epic. I just got a 1250 GS Adventure and not really sure if I am game to explore the Flinders with it yet. Just worried that it may be a little too big.
Flinders is prime riding for the bigger ADV bikes I reckon. Only a few tracks that are technical, the rest are just scenic picturesque dirt roads@@AdvExOz
They didn't have two little cabins?
Probably but may as well share with my brother to save money haha
Это же актер или я ошибаюсь 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
нет, не актер
It still boggles my mind that kangaroo's are a thing.
They’re certainly an interesting creature!
sport a dune flag! for safety
Not sure anyone does on bikes
You look like James Franco
I’ve heard that so many times haha
Big ride? Itchy boots laughs in your general direction.
Hard to ride around the world when you got a job that’s not TH-cam champ.
I’d consider 4300km’s in 9 days with a lot of off-road, a big ride in my books.
Nice ride gentleman! And some stunning landscapes!
Thanks heaps!
