I love how half the comments are telling him he's doing it wrong despite the fact he's probably got more saddle time then all of us combined. 400k kilometers and he's still being told how to pack lmao.
Amen to that. People are hilarious.
Totally, mototbikeless smartpants (does this make sense? In my head it does)
Thats the internet for you!
Know nothing experts.
“If I forgot something I go to a store and buy it.” Most important rule to remember when packing. Always helps me to pack lightly.
Except for the adventure riders that actually drop off of the interstate every once in a while, lol
the tool storage in the skid plate was actually really cool.
yeah, real cool. the moto tool are heavy stuff. need to be stored at the lowest possible
Where does one purchase that bash plate toolbox for a KTM EXC 350 six days.
Yeah right, never see that coming
man that kit is dialed; don’t think people realize how much time and experience goes into pairing down and working out a clean system. v nice
6:09 not the first time I’ve heard this
you need bike spare parts. you cant get them "everywhere in the world" in a shop when your weapon of choice is a focused dirt bike. EXC parts will have a lead time for parts of about 1 month or more as soon as you leave the civilized world.
I so agree with you Alinel. You need a bike specific spare in Africa,you have a major problem.I live in South Africa,which is supposedly the civilized world,and you can wait ages for something as simple as an air filter for a Honda,I won't even talk about BMW,KTM etc.
I think my favourite part of your video was the end advice. "if I forget anything, I just buy it. there's shops everywhere, its not the end of the world".
Yea and its not like the stuff you forget are 100$ or 1000$+... they are tshirts, socks, maybe a sweather... small stuff... stuff that you can get cheap in 99% of the world...
I was wondering if Paul was sponsored by someone...but I just can't place my finger on it...
I read somewhere once when it comes to packing for a motorcycle trip, pack everything you think you will need, and the all the money you think you will need. Then get rid of half the stuff you packed and take twice the money.
That tool box/ bash plate is amazing. They entire video Im saying, " wheres the tool kit, wheres the tool kit" then friggen BAM there it is hahahah love it! Great video, happy travels. Maybe we cross paths.
Right on
Wow, dude. First of all, props on the entire rig. Second, on the nice vid. Third, I'm a little jealous. Nine years musta brought you a ton of great experiences. Cheers to ya!
Thanks so much for the video, Its good to see someone rocking the Mosko moto setup and travailing. You just helped me immensely! I'm going to refer to your video when packing for my next trip!
I don't know exactly why this video was suggested to me by YT but I actually WAS thinking a lot about quitting my office job lately.
Same here! RUclips knows more about us than we think...
What an amazing video Paul, well done, such a great example of light travelling. Thank you for sharing it. Safe ride!!
Great video, your website is even better.
Thanks for all the time and effort that you put into all this to share your knowledge.
This is excellent! Great work on this video. You make it look so easy! Thank you!
For what it weighs and the size of it I'd still take a Helinox chair, my back couldn't cope without it.
I used to carry a Alite Monarch Butterfly Chair, about half the weight and pack size of yours, but not easy to get out of, only has two legs, basically a rocking chair
Really great video! Enjoyed it thoroughly! We here at Viking Bags really appreciate your content! Keep up the good work!
Man I cannot express how much I want to get a bike, load it up, and just ride to nowhere. Excellent video, very in depth, great quality, and a good platform to inspire others to build off of based on their needs or copy and paste if need be.
A badass for sure, thank you so much for your presentation and help sharing your experience. Got to get some gear fast, for my next adventure in Turkey (going east this time) and I appreciate your vib man, thanks again
Nice video, very informative! Have a beautiful, safe journey and good luck.
Awesome! It’s hard to stress to people the importance of good quality gear. Not only is it more functional and reliable, but the compactness makes a world of difference when you’re adventure riding. The initial hit to the pocket is harder, but it pays off every time you use it.
Wonderful advice. We start our RTW Adventure next summer! Really appreciate the great tips.
I must say this tool kit is awesome! Never saw such design before and it's sooo brilliant!
The one thing we really like when backpacking is a folding water basin. Of course we are out where there is lots of water. But a warm wash of hands, face, a sponge bath feel so good even though we're just out for a week or two.
Hi Mototrek team.
If we want to comply to a Leave No Trace approaches specific to Moto-Camping trips, several topics don't seem to be talked about very often.
As a general rule of thumb, I know that heavy loads are carried the lowest and closest to the center of the bike.
I'd like to have the MototrekADV rider's approach and insight on the following topics.
A - Water supplies :
A.1 - How do you carry/store/strap on the bike ?
A.2 - How do you filter/clean it ?
A.3 - What quantity do you usually carry/day ?
A.4 - What types of containers do you use ?
(MSR Dromedary, MSR Dromlite, Collapsible water bottles, Hydration backpack, Rotopax 1 Gallon-Water , other methods ?)
B - Food supplies :
B.1 - How do you carry/store/strap on the bike ?
B.2 - How do you store it night ? (
Bear Bag, Canister, Hanging on a tree)
B.3 - What types of containers do you use ?
(
Ursack Allmitey + Oppsack, BearVault, OPSAK Odour Proof Bag, other methods ?)
C - Trash (Food remnants or Human waste):
C.1 - How do you carry/store/strap on the bike ?
C.2 - What types of containers do you use ? (STS Trash sack, OPSAK Odour Proof Bag, Dry bag + Ziploc, other methods ?)
C.3 - What types of methods do you use ?
(
On site - Cat Holes / Carry-on - Wag bags or Restop bags ?)
D - Fuel :
D.1 - How do you carry/store/strap extra fuel on the bike and manage with other luggage ?
D.2 - What quantity do you usually carry/day ?
D.3 - What types of containers do you use ?
(MSR Fuel bottles - 30oz - 887ml, Rotopax Fuel - 1Gal - 3.80L, Desert Fox Fuel Cell - 3L, other methods ?)
Thanks for your input and recommendations.
Obviously they don't have time or someone doing their customer relations. Sad.
Truly brilliant video! Thanks for posting.
Thank you for sharing your years of experience and what you have found that works for you. I carry way too much but will take several things from your video but one thing I can not give up.... My Chair. LOL.
Very impressive! I like this well thought out, reduce-to-the-max approach very much. thanks for sharing, Paul :-)
That was an eye opener. The size of your two man tent amazed me. Impressed with the software bags etc. Very durable and top notch quality. Rain and cold can be a challenge and seeing the volume or rather the lack of it in your clothes dptment was surprising. I was particularly impressed with your tank bag for photography as I too am a keen videographer and photographer. Would have liked seeing the frame set up that carried all your saddlebags etc. Great demo and a functional system to suit you. Thanks.
Thank you great summary of what we really need on the Big Trips !!
I can't pack my sock draw that neatly. My hat is off to you. Fantastic set up.
Great video. Look forward to following your trip. Thanks.
So what do you do about food? Carry any with you or just pick some up each day?
Superb video, thanks for sharing it.. I like to travel light too, and your unpacking process and verbal list was really useful 👍🏼👍🏼
Great video. Very useful information. Thanks for creating. Gonna zoom in on your tool roll
Love how chill and confident you are 👍 too much gear is too much gear... sometimes the essentials is all you need
I've been doing this a while - rtwpaul.com/route/
Brilliantly done IMHO. The art of traveling light is something that I've yet to master. My, I want to be prepared for any contingency kind of mindset usually does me in.
Safe travels and more power to you.
It helps to use items that are multifunctional or learn to use one thing in many ways;
Avoid "what if" scenarios;
Don't take that spare pair of jeans. Don't take "spare" anything;
See being frugal and doing with minimal stuff as a challenge you have to make;
If you buy new gear always choose the small/lightweight/simple option;
If you're going to take contingency items then think of utility to cumbersome ratio: elastics, a needle, string, a clothespin, a bit of cloth tape, a bandana, etc.;
Go camping some time and learn what you actually need. List all the things you did and didn't use and next time take only what you use.
This guy is to the point, very refreshing to watch.
You can see your intent is to advocate the adventure. Very informative but very to the point. Fine business sir. Thank you.
Legend. Thanks for unpacking all that stuff just to show us
Clever, compact, comprehensive.....especially like the chair!
I have been doing adventure riding for years. This is a very well explained video learnt alot thanks!
Great stuff. I'm starting moto-camping this season and I m craving this kind of video. You can tell it's years of experience speaking. 👍
Nice and simple. Keep up the good work.
The beats in the end are so dope!
thanks for sharing, really appreciate the link to your packing list.
I'm just starting down the moto off-road travel and this is a good setup.
I've traveled a lot by bicycle and mountain bike, like decades. I look back at my first big trip in 1980 and kind of chuckle inside at the gear and canned food I carried. I was actually kind of lucky to find halfway decent stuff, considering the gear of the time, and it worked even though none of it was light. Still, it was the adventure of my life and it filled a desperate need for me to gain faith in humanity, which became the point. Remote travel, though, good gear makes it way better, but nothin beats a clear disposition in stressful moments
So... I've been bike touring (pedal bike) and probably setting out to do a motorcycle tour at one point. All fun, but on the bike tour I always left some empty space for food on the road. Great that you pack a stove, but where do you keep the food?
Your all set brother, great tips.
Thanks for the video. Safe travels Paul!
Thanks for sharing Paul, what I like the most is your chair.
Thank you I needed this info
The tool storage super nice!
Amazing! Thanks for showing us how minimal you can travel and still have all that you need 👍.
You got a new fan dude! Keep it rolling
Very efficient. I'd love to get a closer look at your tool kit roll.
And for everything else? There is MasterCard
I love the life on the International Road! After Covid here in Miami costs skyrocketed and my grandchild entered the world that I am supporting. I am thinking of flying to ride a week or two as funds allow. I liked the way you organized your things. I ride a Harley thus I am using Hard-bags. Keep the videos coming!
Spectacular video. solid content. Thank You.
my god imagine packing and unpacking that everyday...in rain , hail, and snow.good onya
Great tutorial thank you so much! Planning to do some camping on our motorbikes this year. Mine bike is the humble cb500x. It's a great bike and it does everything quite well. Do not have it rally rated but I have it equipped to protect it with skid plate ,handguards, heated grips engine guards, and LED lights. And I have soft luggage on my bike too. We plan on copying your packing when we camp. Huddy has a nice KLR, but he's looking to upgrade.
CB 500 X and KLR will go around the world with no problems. Have fun camping. Cheers
This is great info, thanks from Montreal!
This video is surprisingly helpful! Thanks!
this lad is a real motorcyclist, a lot of respect , most people drive big BMW's spend tons of money but never get dirty or go into real camping. This to me is what it is all about , real adventure !
Brand has nothing to do with it. I thrash my R1200GS up and down mountain trails, desert, etc. I've seen street queen KTM's same as BMW.
Maybe I missed it, food storage? Any tent footprint or are you just careful when you set up?
Excellent, yes travel light, you're never far from people and their stuff.
Loved it mate ,iv just started and come back from in outback and headed round au ,i notice there's a big difference between weekend warriors that go from paid accommodation. Great insights thanks
All i see and hear is Ultimate freedom. Takes a special kind of person to be able to do that.
EX-TRE-ME-LY Helpful! Pure gold. Thank you!
Very helpful,thx! Have a good trip!
Appreciate your seasoned skills & sharing
BMW GS guys take more equipment then this to go to the local shops....
That looks like Arizona. I want to get an enduro and explore the seemingly endless expanse of desert here. Seems like a fine hobby
Great video, very informative and helpful !!!
Love the info for my trip, as soon at the "situation" i over. THANKS. what model of cooking set is that.(the pots and pans)
Great video - well done. Love the choice of bike too. I was wondering what type of foods you carry? do you run hydrated foods when you travel?
I try and buy fresh food from markets or local people as I go, very rarely dehydrated,
Everybody about the food. He is showing you the GEAR, add 2 cans of food for emergency and that's it, when on the road there are towns with people and food, restaurants, shops, everywhere in the world. Even in the most remote and poor places people sell food, it comes with the humans.
Exactly!!
Yep, Noraly (Itchy Boots) eats out every meal and spends every night in a hotel/B&B. That's how I'd travel if I had the money but I don't.
I agree with your essentials only philosophy.
Also, Mosko is the only way to go!
Tools under/in the lower plate, first Ive seen. Great idea.
Thanks for allowing many of us to acknowledge how to travel.
That's a nice set up, I recently swapped over to soft bags on my Himalayan and I like them way better. Not only are they lighter but your less confined by shape of the object you are trying to store
That rally bash plate as tool box is sick! Would want to get that space used for heavy tools for sure.
Same that was sick! Smart thinking from the designer.
You’d want to pack it out so it doesn’t rattle like crazy
Great, informative video! Approximately how much weight does your luggage come to? And when do you usually stop riding to setup camp for the night? Also, what kind of food do you eat? (Breakfast, L, dinner)
Travelling light is really the key thing to make the experience a good one.😊😎👍
I'm impressed. I am trying to model the minimalist approach and you have nailed it!
As I am budget conscious and only motocamping I have fitted my KLR starting with what I have on-hand including camping gear. The only purchase I've purposely made was a pair of Rinowalk 14L panniers. I know they would be trashed the first day on the trail, but am not an offroad technical and don't see myself pursuing serious due to prior back injuries and age.
The one thing I do different from most ADV riders is combine amateur radio camping. I get 2/3 of the shoot, move, and communicate. I did my first out-of-state ride, over 1500mi ranging 140mi, 300mi, to >600mi per day. On two days I made planned radio contacts to a friend, once from Birmingham, AL to Merritt Island, FL and the Tupelo, MS to Merritt Island, FL.
I would love to see a detailed list of your gear. I was quite impressed with the compactness of some of the items.
ruclips.net/video/nShDYlZGKlc/видео.html
We can never emphasize enough how compact and light we can pack when planning right. I've seen people over the years in needless strugles of exhaustion because they were carrying half their households. Weight matters
Love the bash plate 👍🏻
great advice!! hard to do though. I have backpacked in many countries and camping here in awesome west coast Canada. I always overpack. In my opinion of 30 yrs camping, check out simple Primus stove, no pump or pressure. Bought and learned to ride a 300 cc this year. dual sport. love it!!! planning for expedition in spring/summer. ride safe
I am a new guy to the adventure part of riding. Thank you very much for this video. I was hoping to see more about the food you bring with you.
Do you have another video that goes into more detail on that topic?
You can always buy rice not matter what country.
Great packing list. So minimal and helpful.
Can you do a video speaking to the psychological aspects of your travels; preparation, problem solving difficult conditions, endurance, and overall outlook as you travel?
Thanks for the inspiration.
I think Paul will save those details for his therapist. ;)
@@MOTOTREK hahaha
My dad taugh me how to do this when I was very young, I can teach it to you really quickly. It's called "Not being a pussy." There you're all trained up. Go live your life.
Can you please do a video detailing your tool roll?
Thanks
2011 went RTW on motorcycle only carried what could fit in soft panniers and tank bag . Your got the right idea. Cause the weight always matters and best way to go cheers mate.
Thanks for sharing this with us!
You Sir are living my dream
Enjoy
My bike has a small tool kit under the seat. Enough to change a tire and tighten bolts. I carry a small air pump that's a bitch to use but gets the job done if needed. I carry two waterproof 20 liter pannier bags and a fat 50 cal ammo can in a Swag mount on my rear bracket. That's all the space I need 90% of the time. In the rare case that I need a little more I wear a backpack.
Hey Paul, I stumbled across this video! I remember you were packed light in Mongolia. Where you are going, that is the best solution! Hope you are well! Keep traveling and maybe we meet again in the future. (Geert from Antwerp with an 80 series landcruiser)
Your experiance has made you very organised thanks for the tips
Lovely lovely kit, you should probably put some affiliate links in the description.
Three things you didn't mention, though:
- GPS/map/route planing
- spare parts (other than the tubes and tools)
- FOOD! do you do groceries daily? If not, cans, dehydrated stuff, what's your flavor?
travelling this light is not for everyone but if you can and still enjoy the trip logistically your riding boundaries are far less limited. Just one guys way. Cheers.
compliment..you are so well organized
