Yeah it’s a constant climb Gold miners hauled equipment up there in the 1800s losing a few livestock through hard labour ( deadstock) it was the toughest climb on what was the first road of four going into skippers canyon
Man, it took a while to get to this video but was well worth the wait. Awesome ride guys.....but in shorts and sneakers....? Some nice cliffs to avoid. I found myself leaning in my chair while you were close to the edges. Thanks for sharing.
Thats WITH a new chain and an extra block of Nylon! The new technology is light years away from these things but its nice to have something unique from the past that has its place
I hear you have the same problem that I do. The little chain flops around when off the throttle. I am making my own replacement chain rider from a block of nylon. Great fun these bikes, but I think I am ready to enter the 21 est century haha.
Great video guys... so far as the lack of riding gear? well you weren't going terribly fast, and I'm not sure if gear would have made a difference falling off those ledges.
Figures can be obtained on the BW owners club but we are away for hours and dont seem to ever get to use reserve. .We have one original rack and are trying to get another from the states so we can go away for more than day trips . Carrying swags and gas etc with us . Where in the world are you?
I can't see riding anything else up that hill that would be more enjoyable or easy? Dirtbike would be more difficult and a atv and even an atc wouldn't be as much fun. @ 4:15min
@@notsorare Yah exactly, so cool, do you guys still have these bikes? I'm about to do a trade for a 1986 bw200. I have a 2001 honda cr250r but want to do more trail riding. The only thing wrong with the bw is the electric start, he says the motor wont turn fast enough to start the bike. New batteries installed so maybe it's the starter motor?

Those climbs look steep in the video so I can only imagine what they looked like in person. The right tool for the job!

You fellas are just having a blast out there. Enjoyed the video
naioti Thanks
Thats despite landowners dropping trees across the tracks to stop us ! Muscles and a tow rope get rid of these pesky obstacles
Great video! I was holding my breath at times!!
i have two bw 200s.. this looks fun as hell. no wheel spin means go anywhere

Atv wouldn’t fit , it’s a goat track on the side of a very steep hill with some trees just wider than the handlebars
