@@DadCanFixAnything I think we were doing about 40-50 mph, so they were likely only doing around 20. But my memory isn't always perfect, so it might have been slightly different speeds.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Ya, convenient memory. 🤣🤣🤣

@@DadCanFixAnything Thank you for the kind words! We appreciate the support.

@@dipuBarua I'll try to get Cody to respond on this, as he regularly listens to music on rides. I can say that this model temporarily cuts the intercom when I receive a phone call (it automatically answers incoming calls after 2nd ring) and then goes back to the intercom after the call ends. I know there are other more expensive model coms that can share music and/or navigation, but I haven't tried them. This model is very basic, but works pretty well if there are only 2 riders.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Sena does the same as well

​@dipuBarua so I can't answer that one 100% but I can say that I think you can switch back and forth between rider coms and phone accessories. Hope this answers your questions. But again I'm not sure I haven't tried that yet.

@@devonolsen1331 It took a bit of effort, but was actually easier than I expected.

@@DadCanFixAnything He definitely didn't seem very concerned about the crash. 💩 Lol

@@MathewsGuitarWorks up to 6 devices in total can be linked. Only 2 of them can communicate at the same time.

@@MathewsGuitarWorks It works very well for the price. We brought 3. My kids share 1 for when I ride with them, Cody has 1, and I have 1. It's been good for teaching the kids (video of my youngest loosing the training wheels comes out this week), and for Cody and I communicating on rides. I would like a pricier set that can communicate with more people at once, but still don't regret this purchase. I would just say to evaluate whether you think you need to communicate with multiple people at once. If not, this is likely the best bang per buck.

@jonhill329 When just using coms, we've had no problem getting 10 hour (or more) rides on a charge so far. Cody uses his for music as well, but I don't know if his has ever died on a ride. I'll ask him to chime in here.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures interesting, thats pretty decent actually. thanks for the info boss. :)

@@jonhill329 No problem. I'll likely upgrade eventually to get a set that can communicate with several others at the same time, but this set has been great for the price.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures I have the sena and cardo packtalk, was checking the compatibility with this unit, hint, there is none. lol, but yes, for the price, this little comm unit does very well. last couple of days I used it all day with little issue, and good range and battery life wasn't a problem. Hard to beat it for 20 bucks.

@@jonhill329 Great to know. Thank you for following up with your findings. I'm wondering if their Q series comms are compatible with the name brand units, as they are fairly feature packed at a fraction of the price.

@@akd052774 Thank you for watching and commenting. I definitely agree that there is some risk. We try to carry enough essential gear to mitigate the risks as much as possible. We'll have to do a video going over the gear we carry.when we go that far into the back country.

@@DadCanFixAnything It definitely was. Thank you for watching!

@@Trails07 So true. Especially when outdoors.

@@AstronautAdventureRiders Thank you! There's currently some color issues with my editing software. If that gets resolved, it will give an even better grasp of the scenery. Of course, nothing beats being there.

@AndrewWilmotAu Thank you. I think we were pushing the limits on depth, but made it through.

@@MotoMission. Thank you. We definitely had fun.

@ero7238 Thank you for the support and the question. I usually plan about 200 miles +/- about 50, depending on terain and how spirited I get with the throttle. On this ride, we cut it close and actually received an extra 1.25 gallons per bike from a very generous guy in a side x side on the other side of the mountain. We may or may not have made it all the way out without his donation. It definitely would have been close. Helpful folk is another thing we're not short of here in Wyoming. We'll definitely bring spare fuel the next time.

@ero7238 I should add that altitude plays a key role in calculating range. We likely get about 25%-35% (or less sometimes) than we could get if we rode at sea level. These bikes 'should' be capable of around 300 miles in 'ideal conditions'. Of course, we prefer less than ideal conditions. Lol

What he is trying to tell you on road it's about 250 miles for a tank. Off road we are looking around 150 or so for a tank depending on riding conditions and how we want to ride.

@DadCanFixAnything It was. It looks just as deceiving in person, too. Lol

@DadCanFixAnything Thank you for the support and comments. I didn't even know that he got sideways until I edited.

I even scared myself, haha.

​@@codebuzz5866 I couldn't tell those hills were that steep, until I watched you sliding down half of them.

@DadCanFixAnything Thank you! I'm having software issues. Waiting for an update to fix it. Hope it gets sorted soon.

@@spencervidal3168Thanks for watching and commenting.

@@spencervidal3168 wait for Part 3. Should be up this week.

@@danilodjuricic2177 mph

Thank you Lauren! We appreciate the support. Part 3 of this ride comes out Thursday.

@@AshkanAbedian-qg2ni Interesting perspective. Thank you for the comment!

❤ Best comment of the day! ❤

@DadCanFixAnything Although a bit big, this bike levitates nicely in the right conditions.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures 🧞‍♂️

@AndrewWilmotAu Thank you for watching! Wyoming is a great place for anyone to visit. It takes some good resolve to live here and love it though.

@@DadCanFixAnything Thank you for the comment. Maybe you can show me how to make coffee. Lol.

It was soooo bad and sooo bitter. Oh god. Never again

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures I'll show you guys how to make coffee sometime as long as Cody let's me drift his bike. 😀

@DadCanFixAnything I can't reply for Cody, but I think it's a good idea.. 😅

@@codebuzz5866 What do you think??

@@BroadwayT660 Thank you for watching and commenting! I couldn't agree more. Do you have suggestions? Cody already bought a set. He's going with Motoz, with the RallZ on back. I've thought about the Scorpion Rally (the real rally tire, not the OEM STR version), but I'm still undecided and considering something that will still retain reasonable life and road manners. However, I have been impressed with what the bikes have been capable of with amateurs like us on OEM tires.

I'm honestly surprised that they made it that far on stock tires. Impressive and entertaining.

​@DadCanFixAnything just wait the next video you will be even more surprised with the riding that is coming up.

@@codebuzz5866 It looked like you were going to pass. You must have been distracted by those picture-perfect Wyoming views. 🏞

@@craigalberts7376 Thank you for watching! Part 2 will release tomorrow.

@DadCanFixAnything there are going to be a couple more episodes from this ride and it definitely gets more exciting.

@TheWhippetmaster the sad thing is that I had a pair of pullover pants in my bag and I just wasn't smart (or motivated) enough to pull them out and put them on before doing the water crossing. Fortunately, I was wearing wool socks and brought a couple extra pairs.

Color seems alright so far, wind in audio could do with an edit, not sure if you have a wind sock already

Pretty good blur about 10 mins in though

@@devonolsen1331 water on lens, it slowly improved as is dried. Lol

@@thelonewolf666 Part of the reason I don't have a mount on my bike.

Looks like it lost saturation. Sadly, I couldn't tell you how to fix it.

Ya, it took days for my boots to dry out. 😂

Thank you for the comment. We are really enjoying them! Just came back from another multi day ride and hope it doesn't take forever to edit video. :)

Great information to watch for. Thank you for sharing! We haven't had any real issues with our bikes (yet). Is yours a 2022 model? Our lights were bought from some random Chinese seller on Alibaba (was on a tight budget when we bought them), but I'll try to find and share a link in the description to some that I think are the same. Ours measured around 4 Ohms each if I remember correctly.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, my bike?is a 2022. There is a factory service bulletin from Apilia about the sender unit and an updated replacement part for that was originally installed.

@@richardsieben815 Thank you for the information! Both of ours are 2023 models. Hopefully, they worked the bugs out the first year. If not, I'm sure will find them eventually too.

Good suggestion! We both have tablet mounts for GPS maps. We made an install video, but not a review. We like `em. Cody has a smart phone mount, but I dont yet. We'll try to get a review on his soon. We have a crazy ride planned this weekend, so maybe we'll record that to if I remember.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures - Thanks bud, ride safe please.

@@camberweller That phone mount video is posted.

Not really, but only because I don't really use the buttons when riding. They are definitely too small to use with gloves IMHO. But, once connected, there's no reason to mess with buttons. It answers calls automatically on second ring and goes back to comms after the call.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures - Thank you!

@@camberweller glad to help!

Glad to be helpful. Thank you for watching.

Thank you! I'm definitely not a professional videographer, but like to be helpful and love to ride. Part 2 (relay harness) should be up this week and Part 3 (mount/install) shortly after that.

I had some supplies on hand, but even had we bought everything, I believe we would have easily completed both bikes for less than $100. I think our actual expenses were less than $40 each. Sure beats paying well over $300 for OEM or other options.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures For sure! I looked it up and if I'm not mistaken, it looked like it was over $300 just for the OEM harness, ...and around $300 more for the lights, so over $600!?

Thank you for watching. Excellent Question! This tent 'could' actually be set up in under a minute if you rush. That's including the time to take it out of the bag, and depending on how easy it is to drive the stakes into the ground. I was able to push the stakes in by hand at this location, so it was pretty fast. It can also break down and be put away almost as quickly.

Great question. You can listen to music or take calls while paired to another rider, but you can't share the music (or call). There are several newer headsets that can share music and communicate with more than one rider at a time, but none are anywhere near as affordable as these.

Thank you for watching, and for the comment. I believe one of the other brands of tail racks has bars that protrude a lot. Someone also makes rear crash bars that would make good grab bars on the sides of the seat.

So far we are loving them. We switched from having smaller dual sports (check out some of our other videos), but wanted a unicorn bike that could do it all. Unicorns are a myth but the Tuareg comes pretty close. We don't have any dealers in Wyoming, so we over protected to bolster reliability. Lol.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Thanks. I would have a dealer about 2 hours away, which isn't bad for living in Maine. On my list of things to find out on my test ride today is to get a sense how good their service department is. I will take a look at the older videos of your dual sports. Thanks, again. You guys are using this platform the way it should be used; to help people with similar interests.

​@@Declan4253How'd the test ride go?

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Well...they sold the bike that they allowed test rides on so no test ride. However, a week later a bought it anyway. I love it. I just did my first 600 mile service yesterday. I have the Camel Adv bash plate and other goodies on it. I think it looks great (the Dakar Podium color) and it is really fun. Thanks for the inspiration.

@@Declan4253 Nice. Glad to help, and glad you're enjoying the bike!

Congrats on the new bike!. I loved the look of the matching Outback skid, but my research showed that the Camel skid plate gave better overall protection (check out their test video). It's wide enough to cover the lower motor and most of the foot levers in a drop and the added slip liner covers the dog bones.

...Btw, some of the other mods are slightly easier before installing the crash bars, like fog/driving lights. We'll post a video on that eventually.

Thank you! It was definitely a fun ride.

Yes, it was!

I don't know about better, but it's definitely more convenient for oil changes. I'd have to see somebody hit that one with a sledge hammer, while it's on their bike to be convinced that it's better. I also don't like the fact that the T Rex requires the additional lower crash bars to get as much coverage as the Camel skip plate gives alone.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures The T-Rex plate is completely isolated from the oil pan.. No bolts or brackets attachment to the pan. Also covers the rear linkage for the swing arm.. Makes access to the oil filter a breeze..

@spencervidal3168 I'm sure it's a pretty good skid plate. I've used T-Rex products on other bikes. I definitely like the access panel for oil changes. However, it still doesn't cover as much without the addition of their ower crash bars, and they didn't have any evidence of impact testing. I also understand most of us want to believe that we made the best choice, And that what I find best for my use, may not be the best for others. I almost purchased the T-Rex plate, but after more research, I decided on the Camel. If you have the T-Rex, maybe you can come hit some trails with us sometime for a real world side by side comparison test. I can't think of a funner way to settle this debate. 🏍

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Fair enough, so when are you two going to start wearing protection?? Your going to crash, and your bikes going to be fine but you two, weekend warriors are going to be all busted up,

​@spencervidal3168 Thank you for the concern. We do have and usually wear protection, especially when riding challenging terrain.

A lot like floating on air. Lol. ⛅️✈️

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures ❤

Interesting perspective. Does someone make a rubber mounted skid plate for the Tuareg? I'm not sure that I would trust rubber mounts to be strong enough for some of the trails we ride with this heavy of a bike. I do believe the sub-mount on this one is sufficient for dampening. Cory at Camel ADV tested it by hitting it several times with a large sledgehammer, ...while it was mounted on the bike. I couldn't find any other skid plate manufacturers that even showed evidence of any testing. I'm definitely open to see something better, but I tried and couldn't find anything better as far as protection goes.

@@WyomingFamilyAdventures Heed skid plates have rubber mounts. I guess if something takes the force it’s better than nothing 🍻

@daveo9844 I had to go back and look at the Heed. Plate again, because it has been since last year. I definitely agree that the Heed plate is very good option. We passed on it because it doesn't give the same protection as the Camel ADV plate, without buying the additional lower crash bars. The Heed plate also lacks the heat shield around the cat.

Nice discussion. This really highlights what Wyoming Family Adventures said about this being the `best for their use`, and others might find something better for their own use. I like that both the video and Dave mention other good options and agree with both that there's not always a one size fits all solution for everything.
