  • First ride in Utah. Its very different terrain! It's like riding on another planet compared to home. This was playing around in a dedicated OHV area where bikes are free to play!

    Even when Chris gets it wrong he does it gracefully. What a legend.

    HA!, glad to see it happens to all of us....A few weeks ago, A very wise man once told me you attack a hill in thirds, first third gain speed, next third sustain speed, last third bleed off speed as you get to the top. I'm glad you guys are enjoying the rest of your tour of the U.S.

      I under committed to the first third, got lost on the second third and set up camp on the last third 😂

    Just loved the comment, ˋand now´? , we all know that sinking feeling in what seems a hopeless situation, however, our man Chris comes through. The roller coaster feeling coming down was rewarding!

    I did stuff like this... when I was 16. It was my parents' 360 acre farm in eastern Kentucky, I was on a mid 1970s Suzuki TS250 2 stroke dual sport, it was a heavily eroded logging path made by pointing a small bulldozer off a near cliff, I was by myself with no hope of rescue because 16 is just that stupid, and there was a bit at the end where I was alternately leaning forward to keep the front wheel on the ground and leaning backward to keep the rear wheel from spinning before physics won and I bailed out uphill.

    Hi Chris
    I noticed that you still have the original KTM steering damper installed as well as running the XRC one?
    Is there any reason or benifit for having both on at the same time?
    I just installed a scotts on my 890, and removed the original damper.
    Thanks

    • @ChrisBirchNZ
      @ChrisBirchNZ  Год назад +1

      Honestly, I just haven't had the time to take the original one off. I normally just run the XRC

    For climbing hills you'd be way, way better off with a 4wd ATV. Motorcycles have to rely mostly on momentum.
