Hi! My name is Karl, and "chasing pave" (road running) is what I do! Nothing beats the feeling of discovering amazing new places! Whether it be wild camping on the top of a jagged barefaced mountain, cooking beside an emerald green lake in the middle of nowhere, or simply feasting on a local delicacy in a "hidden gem" of a restaurant in a cool new city - there is so much to discover and experience along the road!
Throw in a motorcycle and you have the perfect combination! Getting to explore by motorcycle allows you to go beyond seeing new places, but really experience them by immersing yourself into the environment. Every dip in temperature is felt, and there are few activities as enjoyable as taking a cool dip in an epic stream, river or ocean after riding in the hot sun, or the feeling of the fresh air on a countryside road after a light rain.
I will be taking adventures, documenting them as well as testing out new gear/equipment to make the experience as epic as possible!

Riding to an ISOLATED Beach/Island & Wild Camping
Riding to a remote beach on the Bay of Fundy/Atlantic Ocean. This ride has it all! Smooth pavement, rugged off roading, rocky trails with steep drops, sandy beaches! (and a haunted Island?! )
I'm gonna ride my KTM Duke 890 Sport Scrambler there and explore a bit - and then camp solo in the wild.

I camped cheap! Budget Gear (Under $150) Motorcycle Camping Adventure
Просмотров 2,5 тыс.Год назад
Fancy/quality camping gear is great - but NOT necessary if you are up for adventure and are willing to get a little creative! All my camping gear is unavailable to me at the moment, so I decided to see how cheap I could replace the bare necessities and have a little "wild camping adventure"! A lot of the gear I used was purchased at local retailers/shops, but here are the links to the few items...

In this episode, we start making our way down the Alaska Highway towards the Yukon. Beautiful rivers, bridges and scenery are a guarantee! We find ourselves at Wild Beach on the Muskwa River right outside of Fort Nelson, BC and decided to setup camp right on the riverbank! Good thing we put those off road tires on the day before because we definably needed them on this part of the trip!

We want to do this trip next year. Just bought 2 Honda NX500s. Late July early August we thought. Love your videos of the trip. Awesome.
Good stuff. Nicely done.
Looks very practical and versatile 👍 great Job !
This is an absolute masterpiece of combining the love for motorcycles, breathing landscapes and cinematography! This is my dream in the making! I am really happy to discover your channel and wishing you all the success!! Kudos from a fellow rider!
Thank you so much! 🙏😀
Did you have any breakdowns? I’ve heard KTM is not as reliable as the Japanese bikes.
Haven’t had a breakdown with it yet :)
Great video and awesome van build! What are the dimensions of your dining table/bed frame?
Unfortunately, I can only hit the like button one time. This van is amazing! 😊
Amazing van! 💙✨
Brings back good memories. I went there in 2017 on an 1190 but the road to Tuk was not opening until November. Then returned 2020 on a 1290 and made it right to the ocean. No flats no issues just some long stretches of mud and lot of dust on the one summer trip. Not sure if it was timing but there were no bugs to speak of...
😎very cool👍
Wow that's fantastic mate. You have really done your research. Given me loads of ideas. Great job.
Great video. Love the van
Amazing. Such an impressive job. Thank you for sharing your wonderful design. It’s inspiring!
Inspirational, it's all so well thought out. Don't judge me, as I did fast forward a little but...toilet? Didn't see any provision for this. Well done, amazing work.
Thank you 🙏! I did not include a toilet in this build because I did not require one. Maybe it will be an add-on in the future.
I will be looking at this video again. Great organization!
awesome job. Watched the whole thing.... and I NEVER do that. Really well laid out.
Thank you! 🙏
Just finished watching this entire series and very much enjoyed it 👍 spectacular views along the way & oh that sunset on the artic ocean was amazing ❤
"You can have any gas you want, as long as it's regular" 😅 really enjoying the beautiful rivers & mountains ❤ it is stunning!
Omg 😲 the water is so blue it looks like a painting! 💙 (6:47) your right, it's is spectacular 👌
I love the Rockies!! One of my favorite places in Canada ❤
So what do you think this build out cost? And when are you going to start selling them??? 😂
About 13 K which includes all the gear. If only I had more time, I would start a production lol
@@pavechaser that’s an amazing value! I wish I had the ability to put it all together. I’m not all that handy!
Wow! Those hills in the badlands were just beautiful (6:55) ❤
That was crazy to see that bird trying to fly into the wind & literally going nowhere... nice catch 👌
Very nice van with some smart solutions. Great job!
Thank you! 🙏
Love this video! Thanks for sharing! Going to do this next June!
Thank you!
Love this van really feel like it was my idea. I am going to build more or less the same thing. Love hate your bed though still haven't figured out what I'm doing there
As camper/hiker I would think you would use something like the "geyser" for a shower it's very small built in heater best part it has a body sponge thing as the shower head you use way way less water to shower takes up no space it pays for itself.
It maybe the comments already, But what make/model of tire did you use? thanks
I use Shinko 805s 👍
How much did this cost to build?
About 13k with all the gear
That is crazy that a town you passed didn't allow motorcycles!?! Why?? Never heard of such a thing before...
Yep, old Quebec. No motorcycles allowed. 🤷♂️ (so I don’t go there lol)
I heard about your channel through your sister's channel (wifepack) & I am really enjoying what I'm seeing 👍 ❤ so i subscribed
Awesome thanks! 🙂
I love the build, well thought out and I am saving this video to refer to when I am getting into building mine. However... Do people not know what words mean any more? Ultimate - the best achievable or imaginable. That yours is not. Like low hanging fruit answer would be the facing is made with walnut instead of pine and plywood. But even that isn't the best imaginable. Probably extruded aluminum frame with a walnut facing for the cabinets. You get the point. This build, while phenomenal, is not ultimate. And if you say "saved money," refer back to "best imaginable." Saved money means compromised...not best. I am glad that the lazyness used to title this video was not used to build the van.
Great job and planning. The bed feature is very inspiring as it save time/effort of unloading bike or ATV if all you want is to sleep or nap.
Too cool
How deep are the cabinites? I want to build similar. But be able to hold 2 adv bikes..... I hipe i can do it
Eureka suma2. 3lbs
Wow, you can't do any more of a cross Canada trip than that. You've seen it all! Great filming too!
Thank you!
There's not much headroom when in bed. The inside garage door is not sealed. Just imagine having a dump inside your small living area! 🤮
Working with the space allotted in a van of this size. This is why I have chosen not to include a toilet at this point. 😛
I would love to see more van content you should do a more in depth vid of all the measurements for everything and after living in it for awhile some things you would want to add/fix and things you would remove I would love to see that my plan is to do the same thing moto van life while being a skydiving instructor so this is a perfect van build
Thank you! Hopefully, I will have some more videos soon, showing it in action with my thoughts on it!
Dude ...that is bitchin. Thanks for posting..so many creature comforts you've thought of that I would have totally spaced on
Thank you! 🙏
Finally did it in July. It truly was an Epic roadtrip! Almost 20,000kms round trip from Toronto to Tuktoyaktuk. ruclips.net/video/3jqxZbVWnCE/видео.html
Good job! It’s definitely an epic ride!
Yo! You are lawless, creative, and Brilliant!!! What a great video. Awesome ideas. Wow!
😂 thank you!
Just rewatched the entire series, still epic! Please do something else soon, Karl.
Thank you, I’ve got some rides planned for the future 👍🙂
Awesome setup. would that bed area be a full/double size?
Thanks- probably closer to a double bed setup
Dude, I want to be like you. Very well done Sir.
😆 thanks!
Fantastico ...... SUPER Fantastico!!!!!! Bravo è quello che cercavo TOP!!!! From Italy
Thank you!🙏 😊
very nice setup I almost brought the same setup as yours(saddle bags/crashbars) except for the tank bag in which I brought the KTM powerparts model. how is this bike going with you so far? I want to take it for a tour soon but I'm afraid due to the cams issue, is it working well so far? I have changed the fork seals, thermostat housing, radiator hoses, and waiting for valve cover gasket. so many issues yet it's fun to ride.
Thank you. I’ve had absolutely no problems with it so far! 🤞
I was going to comment how this is the best custom van build i've ever seen, but, after looking at all the comments I think its the best van build a LOT of people have ever seen lol. Very good job, if you ever plan on selling these I have a feeling you'd need a full business to keep up with demand!
Thank you! 🙏 🙂 maybe I’ll keep it in mind as a fall back business idea! 😅
very nice shots...good series..good everything..keep it up
Thanks! 🙂
the best design i have seen, thanks for sharing brother
Thank you!🙏
