Great video. I have a 2023 klr650 adventure model with the factory rack and plastic bags. Does Trish sell brackets or a mounting plate that will work with those factory bag rails?

Planning on doing this on my drz in August. As a man with a 2 gallon tank, I felt your anxiety whole heartedly. I will be getting a larger tank beforehand.

I’ve been thinking of doing this route for a while now, and after watching this, I think I’ll have to finally just do it. What time of year did you go? Man you had some crap weather! 😄 Great video!

When I saw how slow he was going and knew he was going to fall. Momentum is your friend when you're off road

It is long overdue but I wanted to thank Dave for the amazing and time consuming work he did to put this excellent review of our trip together. He captured all the experiences and emotions we all felt. Great to be able to relive the trip...though there are parts I would prefer to forget. 🙂

Enjoyed your video. helped in planning my COBDR coming up this July. Outfitting my Tuareg for the journey, plus getting my self in shape. I am aware of the higher altitude and what it does to your strength. Hope we can make all the passes on the journey.

Looks like a miserable time, pass….

Is there any link to buy it?

Great video, thx a ton.

Oh boy! Going down that quick into the pass doesn’t bode well!

Great real world practical comparison. Leaning toward the large for my 24 Transalp, but tough call on silver or black. Bike is blk, but silver seems more traditional never fuss with painting scrapes or abrasion. Thanks for review, subscribed.

Your video has inspired me to try this route this year. Hopefully less of that wet stuff when I go haha. Thanks for posting!

Nice footage!

At first i thought it was an R15 Version 4 😂😂😂

No contest. Had both and the KTM wins hands down. Buy it (950)asap if you can find a good one. Be warned you will never want to sell it again.

I wonder how may riders get bobbled up and go over the edge?

Nice. I don't have a camp chair. Looks like my stuff will fit the smaller box.

what cruise control do you have?

I have an identical KLR!

They don’t callem the Rocky Mountains because of the trees!

Good video. It would be nice to get more of the bike in shot and less of the back wall though!

@1:12 the reason for the crash is you let the engine speed go too low. The key to riding this terrain is keep your RPMs up (2500 to 4000) and slip the clutch. Also, the bike will naturally stand up if you keep moving, momentum is your friend. You can not trials ride that terrain unless you have great balance skills. You MUST keep moving above a crawl. Look farther ahead, stop looking at your front tire. Always keep your focus 15 to 30 feet ahead to plan where to put your front tire.

My thinking is it doesn't matter if its worth it and as long as you're happy with it then that's good enough.

This is the best video I have watched so far! You guys did great….! I was on the edge of my seat watching Black bear pass! I’m headed out to ride this in two weeks with a couple friends. I’m taking my Honda 450, and going to attempt this with one arm 😬 so will see how it goes. Thank you again for your video!

The sealed battery is a hot tip. I might go with the reservoir cage, as well. I want my 23 Adventure to be as bomb-proof as possible. Thanks!

Most people dont know how good a trail bike the 230f is.

Your camera needs stability. I quickly shut you off. Nausea.

Awesome idea using a miter saw stand. You’ve helped tremendously with your input. Thank you for sharing.

I’m honestly checking out your shop as much as the panniers.. looks great! I have the same Milwaukee chest..but not 3 of ‘em! Gonna watch your other Vids just to check out your shop ;)

Will this bag work well with the Yamaha xsr900?

I bought one but I can’t find where the key is

Here's to wrong turns and good company !

I bought a 230 new in 2019. Sometimes I wish I got a bigger bike, but when I get on the trails I realize that this bike is perfect for off-road. Not too heavy at all and big enough for an adult weight 150 to 160 pounds. With a few upgrades it can be capable of being a dual sport.

Having the garmin and the phone is best,, I don't use the garmin too often as it is an add on for my bike. the paid version works great and I can share any route with one of my students, they really like that.

Road the trail twice last year. Those puddles in the woods are still there :) I went solo too, was nervous about hitting a rock, or sliding in some mud and dumping it in there.

Really! You shipped your bikes out. Pussy's could've at least towed them out there. Stay in the city! City boy's.

how come itchy boots had no problems that the critics all say there is?

You’re always going to have critics and naysayers and people that are going to tell you that you won’t, that you can’t, that you shouldn’t. Most of those people are the people that didn’t, that wouldn’t, that couldn’t. Don’t be defined by outside sources. You go after your dreams

Great job on the video! Thanks for sharing, looks like you guys had an awesome trip.

What is the handle bar height at top of grips when level?

I think I will stick with my little xt250, I’d be falling a lot for sure.

Thank you for the video

Great video!

Nice review by the way! Thanks

How much view of the TFT will the bag block when you’re riding? If it does. Thanks

Wisconsin has the TWAT. Iowa has the TIT. There is no adventure in Iowa.

Is blue like advanced?

I hope you’ve got that audio working when we get to Gingerman, ‘cause I want to hear your comments when I pull alongside you in turn one using 100% motor and 0% skill. :-)

Ha ha, 9k? Fast forward 2022 and I can't even find a KLR out the door for under 8K. Good list of mods though. I had a similar build a while back but found hard boxes really had too much drag for highway use.
