    As an Indian, I can't help but be happy to see that in the West even people doing work like farming, plumbing, mechanics can afford to follow their passion of motorcycles. Unfortunately people doing these jobs here in India don't earn enough to follow their passion.
    Great work as always. You and MAD Tv are two of my favourite motorcycle related channels.

      I think brother, so far we did not have that culture of traveling far and exploring places. My own father throughout his 70 years of life did not travel beyond Maharashtra and Goa. But the current generation is awakening and the internet is giving exposure. I have seen people tour on Hero Splendors and power to them!
      For everybody outside of India, Hero Splendor is Honda SuperCub based 100cc bike that Hero manufactured for Honda till few years back via their joint venture. After their split, now Hero has retained the Splendor brand.

      India is one of the most magical, mysterious and adventurous countries on earth. I travelled 4500km on the Hero impulse 150cc from Dehli to Leh to Kashmir back around to Varanasi.
      It does not matter what your motorcycle is, two-wheels is all you need and the ride I completed with my father through the Himalayas is one of the greatest Adventures of my life.
      I love India.

      The crazy thing is in Europe you can't buy a bike like the Hero. You have to pay at least three times more. So yes, some people (not everyone) make quite a bit of money, but everything is very expensive and that includes motorcycle insurance, maintenance, spare parts, tires, fuel...

    • @imamq0

      I totally understand what you are saying. I'm from Philippines and I cannot afford KTM bike. I have Yamaha XTZ 125cc but don't let a lower cc bike discourage you from going far places. I know I won't go out of country but my motorbike can take me far from my place. I hope you'll be able to tour in your own country. More power to you and your fellow motorcycle riders. Ride safe brother!

    Having watched this video a few months ago, I immediately booked my tour with Top End Moto. The earliest available booking was for mid-2025 but, travelling alone, I was able to move up to May 2024 when a vacancy came up. It was an amazing experience akin to a Six Day Enduro! I made it to the tip of Cape York but my 65-year-old body took a battering.

  • @joske6458

    Hi Adam,
    As someone who is almost in their sixties (within 2 months), it still gives me hope to make the switch to enduro/off-road riding, when I see these 50s and 60s going crazy here. My compliments and respect. I have ridden guided light off-road / gravel roads with a KTM 890 Adventure 2022. And I really enjoyed it. As a small, self-employed roofer, I am always a bit wary of the possible consequences of a fall, because I like to accelerate ;-)
    I envy you all because of these wonderful off-road possibilities. For us, Australia looks like one big playground for tough dads 💪
    I love all your vids, awesome 👌🏻👍 Keep on riding 🤞Best Regards from Zuid-Limburg (Netherlands) 🙋‍♂️

    Another superlative video Mr Riemann. A mate that I ride with did the same top end ride All the way back when the bikes they were using were XR400s. He now rides a KTM 500exc. They really are a do anything, go anywhere, all round weapon of a bike. I reckon I would have to become seriously bike fit to even attempt a monumental ride like this one. You guys are all legends and there's just something about the way you document your adventures which let's the viewer feel like we're right there experiencing it with you. Bloody love it. Keep em coming. Can't wait for part 2!
