What I learned watching this awesome journey is that owning a KTM is definitely an adventure of its own.
It really is! I still have the bike and it's going strong. The last video posted includes a piece on the bike at the end of the video.
That's what you get when you buy motorcycles made i India lmao
Makes me love my Honda even more! Still great content
@@khalil8043 Only the cheapo model are built in India, like the 390 Adventure and the like.
@@simulacrae I see
I wanted to only check 5 minutes of your video..... it turned into 1h10. Great adventure guys.
Me too.
same )))
same here!!!
Same here!!!

I'm halfway through this video and I have tears in my eyes. My father and I are avid bikers but lost our bikes due to financial reasons...we soon will be making plans to Travel our beautiful country South Africa. Thank you for the inspiration!
Great. Get out there. Even if you do it on a 100cc postie bike.
Postie bike this must be Darren saying that lol goodcold Aussie spirit cheers dazza lol
Once in a lifetime ride. Unfortunately it could be decades before it will be possible to do it again if ever. Thank you for bringing me along for the ride 🍻
Yeah so sad to think the route we took is impossible to complete at the moment and for how long in the future
in 2006 myself and 2 friends decided upon a 'Long Way Round' style trip, inspired by the Charlie and Ewan. We didn't't have their budget, we didn't have a tv crew, in fact we didn't really have money. We set off from the UK, 2 of us on XT 600's and I was on a newer XTz660. our route was not dissimilar to yours until we got to Mongolia. I and a friend ran out of money, though the 3rd chap by chance met another English guy and they both continued on the Road of Bones through to Magadan and then to USA.
Overall, my most memorable occasions were the ones when were were in trouble. ALWAYS someone came to our assistance. If it were a push, if it were a spanner, if it were welding, if it were a bed for the night and a drink together.
We found, the less people have, the more they are inclined to share it with you. Often we found ourselves in a spot of bother (even a similar in Ukraine to your russian visa problem (100 Bucks made it go away to the right person)) but it was a life changing experience. If you are thinking of doing something similar, DO IT. Life is short, life is uncertain and life is for living. LIVE IT!
Thank you.
Wow, amazing trip and adventure, thx for share your experience!!One life live it!!
Thanks for sharing this valuable insight and reflection on life. Hats off and stay safe brother/sir
Sounds wonderful. My first time back packing the Philippines I stayed at a village and the family I arranged to stay with had breakfast cooked for us. We hiked around the base of the Mayon volcano, came back down for lunch and they claimed they had nothing.
Turned out they fed us the last of their food. Long story short you are right, the more poor people are the more they want to help.
True 👍
what a great documentary of an epic trip!!
Thank you. I'm not sure people appreciate how much effort to film and produce this with out a support crew of cameramen, editors, producers.

I appreciate it. great job you guys.
It's rare when cam-crew behind the Scenes get any real appreciation...good acknowledgement !
Motorcycle Adventure Dirtbike TV I can watch this over and over mate.
As a matter of fact I've watched it 3 times already.
Congratulations! I wish that I could have done it with u guys.

Glad you included the moment when you both were nearly in tears over the kindness of strangers. Very special.
A very humbling moment that has literally changed my approach to life.
This one hour long video felt like 10 minutes long, what a fantastic journey!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Which of part of this trip did you remember the most? 'Er well, there was this blonde Russian girl on a boat'..................
Is that what those wonderful breast were attached to?
21:50 :)
Only part i rewound
@@NostalgicGames-ov2lc stunning women!
bhahah gold was thinking the same thing lol
KTM's are real adventure bike, because breaking down in the middle of a foreign country is always going to make for an adventure. Looks like a ton of fun. I always thought Portugal-Japan on Harleys would be quite an experience.
Paul Bubnash don't do it! The roads aren't good enough for a big street bike. Lots of dirt and gravel roads. Check out the London to Ulaan Baator ralley! What a barash of breakdowns and 33 flat tires!
Paul Kojack in one breath you slam KTM’s as break-down machines, then say you’d like to go from Portugal to Japan on a Harley... 😂 SMDH.
@@ME-wy3xm Well he never said he would like to do it..
@@ME-wy3xm woosh.....
Your better off on a KTM mate as harleys don’t go round bends.
Looking back at 2016 and thinking about the horrors occuring in areas of Ukraine you rode thru. And how a repeat of this trip won't be likely for decades. Great filmwork.
Very sad.
decades? naaaaahhhh
The war won’t be going for decades at this rate. Russia will lose too many men.
@@Fausto_4841 what's funny?
@@promalp3609 i wasn't laughing?
Probably the best motorcycling video about motorcycling across the world I've ever seen!
Glad you liked it.
I feel like giving this video a thumbs up doesn't show my appreciation enough! Awesome stuff, living the dream. Thanks for inspiring others guys.
Congratulations guys... Riding on the straight roads for thousands kms need an another level of patience. Loved to watch every second of this video.
Hospitality is disarming and genuine! The generosity is, as you say, humbling!!!
I fell asleep while watching motomadness, woke up to this. And I'm glad I did. What a journey.
Damn, this is really a super awesome adventure of a lifetime. Nobody except the two of them owns such an experience. Congratz guys. I envy you.
The XT660 towing the KTM says it all really. :) :) :)
I was just noticing that the XT660 just soldiers on like a tractor! Since the XT660 towed the KTM, the XT660 really is a tractor!
TS50ER our KTMs towed broken down BMW 650GS across Masai Mara in Kenya

I can imagine. I'm tempted to say that they're even worse than KTMs, but earlier this year, I met the Swiss owner of a 690 in Hua Hin, Thailand. He'd been round the world and done well over 40,000 km with no problems whatsoever.
The XT660 got filtered fuel the KTM690 did not
just wanted to let you guys know that this is what got me really into adventure motorcycling. thanks, it changed my life
Yes, the more of these I watch the closer I get to buying a Tenaray 700, lol.
Spent two months aimlessly exploring Canada on my KLR a couple years ago , best trip of my life. Did it solo.
Resonating dude... Resonating.
absolutely AMAZING. its my dream... I Ride from london cross France spain and portugal, was just amazing, me and my wife on my Honda Nc750x!!! Congratulation guys!!! and thanks for sharing with us! 👏
how was nc750x in long distance riding? any comments?
I ride a NC750X too (DCT) and this bike goes on forever, economical too, 1 in 30 kms easy. It is stock not perfect for off road, but with some high-end parts, it will get you far and beyond.
I have a 2012 NC700 and everything is fine, I rode about 12000km on it, in total it has 24000km on it now. I bought it as my first bike. My longest tour was 2000km, the only issue I had was that I ran out of fuel (500m before the gas station and it was totally my fault, the range is fine). The fuel gauge is a bit pessimistic xD
The only other things I did (except the regular maintenance at 12k and 24k)was change the tires, replace the fork seals at 18k km and change the chain at 22k (it was already in bad shape when I bought it)

This was just so epic. Thank you guys for sharing this adventure with us!
Absolutely Amazing ! Congrats on this Epic Adventure and thanks for sharing it with us .
I'm not a subscriber yet but this long journey that you guys have taken was an outstanding beautiful story told by you and it's so nice meeting new people around the world especially when you're riding half way around the world like you two . If there's anything powerful about this video it's people who don't understand one's language but help you anyway , that's God's sent angels . From a new subscriber from America 🇺🇸 I give you my peace , love and much respect to you John . your family , friends and everyone around the globe Peace be with you all the day's of your life God bless.
Thank you. We hope to convey the best humanity has to offer in all our stories.
enjoyed a lot, watch full length of the video till credit roll without pause and skip, felt like i am riding from London to Sydney, cheers guys
The more I watch this, the more I LOVE my suzuki drz400s.
Ktm seems like s shit bike for adventure
@@blackcarmafia It's not, the 690 Enduro R is an absolutely amazing dual sport motorcycle, do the service intervals when it needs to be done, look after the bike and it'll give you thousands of great kilometers, only complaint I do have with mine is the small 13L tank, luckily I've added two extra tanks. Another great KTM would be the 950/990 Adventure
The Basitin Engineer I want to believe you but watching this video makes me think differently
@@mordor958 We all have our preferences, all I'm saying is don't judge the KTM too Harshly, I had a Suzuki DR as well but sadly couldn't get the parts for it as it was an old 1985 model...
@@mordor958 I think it was the bad/dirty fuel they were using without filtering it.
Once you turn off the news, you realize there are lots of good people in the world. What a mostly fantastic adventure!
What an amazing journey. A job very welldone in getting it in a YT video like this. Making friends all over the world is a real blessing.
Couldn't agree more!
Watching this makes me feel happy and realize people really are great. Thank you very much!
Right! People are wonderful. This past year kinda made us forget at times.
Thank you for sharing this amazing, heart-filled adventure with the rest of us! My butt's so sore just from watching you guys!
It’s June 24th 2020 and I stumbled on this most beautiful trip.
Thanks,
Frank
I enjoyed watching the duo travelling from London to Sydney and along the way life experience about human kindness to strangers and wonder if the world can be just that kindness not greed and wars !!!
Fantastic!
Thanks so much for the great video!!
Loved every minute
Nice! Im doing a Sweden to New zeeland tour on my 125cc! The best thing ever🤙
In a fucking GROM! Ahahah
RIP your ass
Any update ???
R u alive ?
Nicklas Aittamaa hello? R u alive
I didn't expect to stay for the entire video. What an epic adventure and great video!
David & Darren.. AMAZING. ' Terima Kaseh' for sharing.
Thank you
One of the few documentaries ive really enjoyed in a long time. Building friendships and making memories
Thank you.
Dudes, excellent stuff, hats off. I am sure that the most challenging at the end was to edit TBs of footage and squeeze such an epic trip into an hour. Good job, boys
This is so emotional to me. And One of the best Experience Of being Human, it almost made me teary. watched the full film.
This is how legends are made🙏❤️🇳🇵
The best posted adventure I’ve seen, bar none!
Thank you guys so much…
Well spread the word!
Amazing trip! Loved how whenever you had a hard time, something good always followed after that.
I loved watching every minute! Thank you for doing such a great job of documenting your adventure and sharing with us!
Thank you very much for this great video about your amazing trip, mates ! I can feel every second of your amazing and sometimes bad situations, because from 2012-2016 I travelled with my austrian travelpartner by pushbike from Munich to Singapore and completely around Australia including Tassie...28.000km in total. After a very bad food poisining in Kashgar my travel partner and me had to go back to Bishkek for a new chinese visa and spent four months there in KGZ...... the most impression experience was the very amazing kindness and hospitality of the people on the whole trip. my next adventure will be the Panamericana from Anchorage to Ushuaia, but then by motobike.. stay safe and healthy and enjoy your life !
Yes Gerd I strongly agree. We should forget about governments and focus on the people from those countries and invariably they are kind and thoughtful.
The tourist must be respected by the police because he is a passerby and has an important role in discovering the world with its civilizations, and he encourages global tourism. My respect for tourists from all parts of the world
Well done guys epic and what beautiful people are scattered around the world restores my faith in humanity
Didn’t want it to end! Fantastic trip and documentary thanks for sharing your journey, guys. Love from England 👍🏽
What an amazing adventure. Thank you for taking us on your journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow - what a ride. Thanks for taking us along and sharing it.
Our pleasure!
i have never finished a 1 hour video on YT. That was amazing
I didn't think there'd be a character travelling the world on a motorbike with a personality as loveable as Ewan McGregors. Happy to see I was wrong - David you've made Aussies proud :D
This is a sweet film. It really grew on me. Great viuals. Great respect shown to locals. Life affirming. I liked it a LOT.
Glad you enjoyed it! It was my first dcent attempt at a motorcycle adventure documentary.
Absolute blast watching this, thank you guys for bringing the adventure into our screens , legends!
Idk the depression after a trip like this scares me
yes it was difficult adapting back to normality
have you ever wondered how better this world would be without armies? the people love each other and its so evident in this video
If there wouldn't be armies, simple people would start fighting with each other on their own. So not much would change
Everything is a Rich Mans Trick. A great documentary you can find here on RUclips.
History says there would be theft, cannibalism, slavery and rape without armies. With them too.
So very true.👍🏾
Its not the armies, its the governments
Thanks guys for putting yourself out there, and for all the extra hassle of shoting all this! Epic movie! It is really encouraging, maybe my CBR needs an touring brother. Thanks guys!
Thank you for a brilliant film. And not one drone shot in sight : )
My favourite parts are your interactions with the people you met along the way.
Wonderful, humbling stuff. Thanks again.
It was a pleasure making it...without a drone :)
An impressive summary of an extremely adventurous adventure.
Wow guys the adventure I could only dream of! Thanks for sharing this epic trip with us 👍👍
Truly inspirational...Thanks guys..!!!
You guys are terrific storytellers, I really enjoyed this. I was moved by the displays of humanity as well.
There's a heap of great adventure on this channel. Try the Himalaya Motorcycle Adventure, that's my favourite.
I hav`nt seen something this good on Utube for a long time.Thanx.
Glad you liked it! Have a look at our Himalayan Motorcycle Adventure, it's better.
This was an amazing and inspiring journey to get to see! Great work on documenting and narrating this adventure. I will most definitely binge all your content now ;-) Thanks for taking us along your ups and downs guys. Ride Safe - Ride Far! :-)
Men, what a great production that showcases what our nomadic makeup eventuates in and that's adventure motorcycling. Well produced and captured and more important articulated like a true story teller. Good work and well worth the hour or os of broadband.
Great video! A trip I’m sure you both will remember forever. Thanks for sharing.
Our pleasure!
With 2 bikes in the garage needing run in and 3 feet of snow outside, this really helps with the abstinence and getting through the Swedish winter.
Cheers!
Excellent
Very cool trip, thanks for sharing!
great video... when strangers lend their hands in challenging times, deepest thankful and gratitude does not seem enough.
Absolutely
Just watched this for the third time in the past two years. Best motorbike adventure film out there! Great work Dave!
Thanks. Did you ever watch the prelude to this movie. That gets into the nitty gritty behind the London to Sydney trip.
Watched & loved the whole video, thank you guys so much! Key learning-filter gas or change bikes to carburetors. Lyndon Poskit does that with his rally bikes, guess he knows what he’s doing. Anyway, really enjoyed all the trials & tribulations you overcame. I do a week riding in Baja Mexico every year, your trip makes ours look like child’s play.
54:05 awesome nepali music..thanks for the nepal visit.
What a fantastic trip, it makes a great change to see a warts and all video showing both the good and the bad times.
I've done a couple of trips all over Europe but nothing like this, just brilliant !
Glad you enjoyed it!
G'day from Germany, motorcyclist and former resident of Australia myself! Thank you for sharing your adventure!
Welcome! Glad you liked it.
What a great movie. You made the movie with great respect to the people you met and countries you visited. I watched it with a lot of fun.
Humility is a key component of the approach of all adventure riders in another country.
Note to self.....always ride a carbureted motorcycle.... great trip, awesome video, thanks for sharing
Alex Kunze the more modern thing one use the more prone to breakdown
Alex Kunze If you've ever tried ridinga 650cc carburetor bike at 4500 mts height above sea level, like mentioned in the video... U'll realize that it'll start struggling like a 250cc Honda at high altitudes...Fuel injection is the only solution around that problem..
Excellent. Thanks, mates, for sharing that adventure.
Our pleasure!
Dave, I’ve watched your adventure several times and it’s the best depiction of bike life I’ve ever seen.
In addition you have a fantastic story telling talent.
Greetings from the other side of the Globe!
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
Very cool...! These guys makes we want to go on an adventure like this...! :-) 👍🏍😃
Wow! Great stuff guys. Really enjoyable viewing.
Londong to Sydney in one hour? AMAZING!!! :D
Great video guys! what an adventure! love to watch..
Awesome adventure! I'd love to do something like this someday in my life. Thanks for sharing your trip!
This film was very well done and I truly enjoyed watching it. I am dreaming of my first big motorcycle adventure and this film really got my wheels rolling. I just wish it would have been in English. I should have studied Australian in college.....
Ya jess gotta be thankful for all them top blokes‼️‼️😉💖🙋🏻♂️
Your video randomly came on while I was tinkering in my garage on my ktm. I listened while I worked for about the first 15min, after that, all worked stopped. I was glued to my phone as I immersed myself in your experience. As in life, your journey proved that the reward is not reaching your final destination, it's the triumphs and adversity faced along the way that provides the memories and the ultimate prize for ones soul. I wonder how difficult this trek would be to navigate today given the current climate of uncertainty from country to country?
What a great experience!
Thank you. Our ten year anniversary this year
WOW! I have got to say what an awesome and epic adventure ride! I am from Singapore and i have rode up to Mae Hong Son, Thailand with my riding squad. Planning on heading further up north to Mount Everest and if possible, the Stans countries.
Cheers!
Loved it. Straya is beautiful.
Truly an amazing adventure!!!
Brilliant!!! Loved every second of it...
Thank you. Seems so long ago now.
I enjoyed the trip too. Thank you guys for featuring Nepal in an awesome way. I wish if you could come back soon to ride across Nepal.
Great video , very professional, loved every moment, well done.
That was great adventure riding) thanks for a good mood)👍👍
Suck a great videos of this amazing trip. Good filming, well edited and great story telling!
Someone should write poetry,
An Ode to the Simplicity and Beauty of the Old Fashioned Carburettor

Probably one of the nicest travel videos on RUclips!
Beautiful trip. Congratulations! Thank you for sharing. I’m sure it is very satisfying to look back on that trip.
It really is!
This is the adventure of a lifetime dream! Amazingly amazing!!!

Thomas Geser Same for me, and I'm also from Germany hahs
What awesome courage, fortitude, goodwill gents, and no doubt sponsors with deep commitments.
Whilst we were greatly appreciative of sponsors, for the most part we did it from our own resources.
I’m having a MAD day, I have watched London to Sydney, the Himalayan trip, and the trajic movie so far! Amazing movies, great commentary.
Now that's a MADTV binge record.
