eveRide ADV 2015 Dual Sport MASHUP! Community Favorites!

Hey what's up ladies and gentle-tubers, it's Everide. This is the end of the- Comments and questions about one of the most critical fundamentals of dual sport and adventure riding. How to ride- Super cool! Whoa! Today I'm going to put on all of my protective motorcycle gear, then take it off slowly for your pleasure. It'll help you ride safer, it'll help you ride better. And it seems like in most of the motorcycle communities all the talk is about- Meditation cliffs. But today I wanted to show you a little bit about my motorcycle. This is the DRZ400E. Yeah, he's fast. As in his wheels are rarely on the dirt. This is the perspective that he's used to. Oh! No! Go! So Mr. I-Hate-Your-KLR-Rant-Guy, you're right. It's not the best motorcycle in the world. Not on paper, not on dirt, and not on paper. The KLR is the motorcycle that got me out there experiencing life. Living my life and meeting other people who are living their lives. Whether that's on a Kawasaki. Many adventure motorcycles out there claim to do everything, but it's more like something you'd see on a beach in Brazil. Both motorcycles are ridiculously reliable, and the lighter, more dirt-friendly dual sport class. The strut and saddle. Whoops in the wild are massively unpredictable, and never the same over time. When you're cruising with your buddy and former pro desert racer, Brent, on that first motorcycle, whether you're 5 or 50, you're gonna fall. When you throw your leg over, there's that familiar feeling of first date with the hotness next door. When you truly love your motorcycle, you stop loving it. You realize the motorcycle itself is just a machine. It's beautiful, yeah! Watch out kids! There we go. You might see what few ever dare to. No car, no trailer, it's just you and a bike that can take you anywhere. This is why we ride the dual sport motorcycle. So, I ran out of fuel just 10 miles from the next town called Monticello. And it's true that nobody stopped when I tried flagging them down, but in the moment that I'm withering up and falling off my body like that dude's face in Indiana Jones. So to answer these questions, I donned my wife's robe, brought the DRZ into my front room, got comfortable, and made a really long and extremely awkward video about dual sport comfort mods. Well, rather than subject you to a long video of me in a short robe awkwardly explaining enduro mods to slow jam music, I'll just sum things up. Here we go. Holy cow! Oh! Oh, roost! Here it is. This is a headlight function. I can focus later on how it looks. So I'm sure you're wondering how the ground's with perfect weather and incredible trails. For the other three months, it's... But what if I told you that I was able to build this rally ferry, including an extremely high-powered LED array inside for less than $70. It jumps through rivers and over rocks. I've power washed them, soaked them. At idle, you can barely tell it's on, but when wrapping it out, it's almost aftermarket loud. Oh, shoot! But it's not all roses for the little XTs. All right, here we go, man. What's up, ladies and gentle-tubers? My name is Tyler. Welcome to the Everide Show. Some say that the best part of an adventure is the riding. Some say it's the bikes themselves. Others, the incredible scenery or stories, or just the escape from the daily grind. For me, it's the people I get to meet, and even tips on how to get a spot in next year's rally. The entire journey can be found in upcoming videos, each documenting what may very well be the greatest dual-sport, enduro, and adventure destination in the world. Well, for the last few weeks, I've had my hands on both Lonnie's 2008 KLR 650... Holy crap. Off camber, and that's the consequence. While my hat goes off to KTM for pushing innovation every year, their target market and expensive R&D and relatively small marketing budget means... So, let's check this out in slow motion. First of all, my final words are... I would willingly take on all of your suffering and agony and grief, but if I did, I would deprive you of your opportunity to learn and grow and experience the whole of humanity, good and bad. As your father, I have to let you hurt, and I am so sorry. I need to pick it up. And they call it Battle Born. And for meeting new people and seeing new and beautiful places, and for the absolute pleasure that... So here's tip one. When turning, sit up near the tank to put the weight on the front forks and lean the bike under... But if you look closely, you'll see that this dude isn't even a dude. Would you want to be seen riding with a man who just came from a Starbucks, driving a Prius, eating a microwavable burrito? That's just wrong.
