This answers my question... You show leaving Lund and then shortly after show the ghost town of Hamilton. That only works if you are heading East to West! But nonetheless great video!
Nice work on the editing and occasional commentary. Appreciate the town highlights. Odd that the case was punctured but JB Weld to the rescue! Impressive trail-side repair.
My bike lasted 24K miles before needing engine work; valve job and rings. The cyl bore was still round. Parts are available and reasonable price. Great bikes.
Dang it looks like you took the hero route. I have watched a couple hundred TAT videos and yours look most challenging. I hope I am not making mistake with my Triumph Tiger 800 XCX.
We repaired a side case on an old Honda 250 w/JBL , it held permanently for the many years we owned it. Did you guys carry the JBL & extra oil with you or have to ride ahead to find it? Will be adding that to my tool kit.
WalkerRari, because the owners manual is full of poopy, and them ain't mxers. They're just dual sports which take far less maintenance than mx bikes. The color tells me they're on KTM dual sports. But I could be wrong about the make, I'm a Yamaha man myself and can't afford them fancy KTM's. Edit* yep, I went and checked, they're on ktm exc 500'$. Might not get there as fast, but the Yamaha XT250 or the TW200 can make the trip for way less money and parts for both are a dime a dozen and fairly cheap. Those KTM'$, not so much. Even on ebay parts for those bikes are high as groceries and harder to find than gold in a Tennessee creek. There's literally only like 1300 parts listings for KTM'S on ebay where any Yamaha has 50+ thousand. Not trying to bad mouth a KTM cause they're great bikes, but they're bikes built for ppl with enough money that they don't have to have much common sense.

JB Weld and a Quarter.....now there's a great title for a country song.
