Heart of Adventure Motorcycle Riding

- The call of the open road, the thrill of the unknown at the heart of adventure.
This is a journey that calls to the daring, to those who seek out the road less traveled and the experiences that come with it.
For some, the call of adventure is too great to ignore. It dwells within them, a burning
desire to see what lies beyond the horizon, to discover the unknown and push the boundaries of what is possible.
It is the heart of curiosity, beating strong and true, urging us to step out of our comfort zones and into the wild unknown.
The wind in your face, the hum of the engine, the freedom of the open road.
This is where the adventure truly begins.
The journey is often difficult, filled with challenges and obstacles.
But it is in facing these challenges that we truly test ourselves, and emerge stronger and wiser for the experience.
For some, adventure motorcycle riding is about the destination. The stunning vistas, the awe-inspiring landscapes, the feeling of being one with nature.
For others, it's about the challenge, driven by a thirst for adventure and a love of the outdoors, pushing themselves to new heights and testing the limits of both rider and machine.
And for still others, it's about the people. The connections we make along the way, the cultures and communities we encounter, and the stories we share with one another.
In the end, adventure motorcycle riding is about the journey. The memories we make, the experiences we have, and the person we become.
So let us embrace the heart of adventure, and let it lead us to new heights, to new horizons, and to a life well lived.
For it is in the heart of adventure that we find our true purpose and fulfill our greatest potential.
It's about the heart of adventure and the call to ride.

What. What have you done. Perfect audio levels that don't over power the bike sounds. The surreal vision of the 170 kilo war pig alternately flowing through bends, then dancing over hard obstacles. Masterful choice of music tracks. Beautiful scenery. Not a single spoken word to disrupt the spell of no-mind. Not only is this among the best riding videos I've ever watched, it blurs the boundaries of what a motorcycle video can be.
Wow thanks very much Artful Alias, your review even makes me want to watch it again! :) Stoked to hear the vid has come across this way. Thanks again for your kind words. I gotta pin this.
This is another cool cinematic vid of a DR rider: ruclips.net/video/AEWQPJnE9pU/видео.html
@@dashuntas.m4045 modshift is 👍
@@SKIDSnSTUFF so are you 🙌
Very cool video!! 👍🏼
Thank you! 👍
This is stuff I could watch for hours. No sales pitch, just fun on a bike. Well done.
Thats great to hear cos its my favourite stuff to make :)
Excellent camera work, brilliant editing and even better riding against some great scenery, you bloody beauty Skids!
Glad you enjoyed it
UNREAL SKILLS !!! - I wish I could ride like you !!! - What beautiful country !!!
Thank you very much!
You need a pilot's license, spending that much time in the air. Outstanding Video!
thanks JJ
The very best of what we enjoy about watching your adventures 🤙
Glad you enjoy it!
Incredible riding! Perfect sound and Video! Congrats!
Thanks a lot!
Suzuki themselves could never dream up such a compelling DR advert. I really love your style man. both riding and video. you're killin it on every level. thank you!
I appreciate that!
And they discontinued it last year in Australia 😢
Still plenty out there!
Love it - the most comprehensive demonstration of the maxim "it's the rider, not the bike".
Spent a summer (at 55yrs old) realizing what has been missing from 35+ years of riding road bikes. Yeah the track days were fun but I learned more in the last 2 years on a DR than I did in the last 20 on a road bike. If I had to chose just one bike now it would be the DR.
Wow brother! The call of the wild,,,,the wild side 💪👍, and an excellent footage,,,,pure action!
Glad you enjoyed it
You look like Superman when you get air with that Drizabone jacket on 😉. I was looking at selling my DR to get a lighter bike. Now I am reinvigorated to keep it after seeing you do Enduro-type terrain. Man, you can ride. Awesome video, Mate.
Cheers for watching Jay, glad you like the vids
Amazing audio! Thank you for not drowning out the sound of the bike.
Let the bush pig sing!
amazing video!
And you have a good riding skills, keep doing it!💪
Thanks Che
Today 18/01/23 I declare this my favourite video!
Pretty stoked to hear that Leon, If only for a day 😀
Just nice to watch my favorite bike handled brilliantly. Wow!
Can ride. What you can do on a DR650 is amazing Suzuki should pay you to make these videos. I don't own a DR650 but watching you on yours makes me wont one.
I agree :)
Nice morning wake up. Thinking of buying a DR and that helps a lot even if I will never be such a GREAT driver. Keep up the good work so nice to watch!
Such a well edited video , with some killer pig riding . Thanks for taking the time to make this , inspires me to get out on my own pig some more
That's the go, enjoy the shred!
Hermoso!!!❣
Chef's kiss
The Pol Tarres of the DR650.
not by a long shot that guy is incredible!
So are you dude. Don’t sell yourself short. Not to mention you’ve a “she’ll be right” charm that he does not. On ya mate.
@@BadgerMcblasty thank you Badger
@@SKIDSnSTUFF likewise. 🤙
Next level mate…
Great video, great music, awesome riding.
You should sell this to Western Australia tourist board 👍🏻😁
That would be cool!
Love your video keep doing epic crazy stunts
The flying cape shots! Rad! Just got a dr. Cheers from Canada
That pig is living the best life
Hands down the best off road riding video I've ever seen. Outstanding on all levels both riding and videography. Subbed!
Thanks Michael that means a lot, welcome aboard
Осень круто!
Почти хард эндуро)
Спасибо за просмотр
born to ride DR650 amazing, shocking and alive thats how it feels
Magnificent! Just amazing work!
Thank you very much!
DUDE! This must have taken months to put together. I assume there was the odd fail along the way. You make this look easy. Unfortunately I am in the northern hemisphere and am waiting for spring, except for the odd short ride when conditions permit it.
Its compiled from the whole years shooting. Hope spring comes quickly for ya
Makes me happy seeing ya rappen that beast around good stuff..., So much want to travel Aus with a bike like this with a big smile on my face , Guess i just gotta do it .....
Get amongst it dude I might see ya round :)
Awesome Skids. Watching you flow with that DR makes me want to sell my super high maintenance and expensive kawasaki dirt bike and get a trail bike/dualsport and rip it without having to worry about anything. Maybe one day I'll have the gonads to do it
could make for a good trail bike with 14/44 gearing
Mate you throw that big 650 around better then anyone one else on RUclips. You make it look like your on a enduro bike. Great work
Excellent video as usual!
One of the reasons I got a DR is the adventure capability and it's ability to take a lick'n and keep on tick'n. Your videos affirm that. I doubt I'll come close to working it that hard anytime soon, but it's nice to know you can.
cheers David, pretty hardy beast other than the clutch.
@@SKIDSnSTUFF ya, my clutch lightly chatters like a Ducati dry clutch during cold starts. It also takes it a few minutes for the idle to raise to normal on mine on cold mornings. 40f degrees most mornings.
Any recommendations for clutch upgrade when the time comes?
Sure did a lot of skids n stuff in 2022. 🤙🤙
ALL the skids
Excellent video my man. Suzuki should send you money because I think you just sold a DR650.
Wow, extremely impressive.
Glad you liked it! thanks for dropping by
Dude you show the world what a dr650 can do properly tuned and riden!
thanks for chiming in Jason
Just goes to show…most bikes can outride their owners 😁👍🏻
Top notch stuff right there. You sure can put an edit together. Choice as bro.
The Dakar and then this! Both things I can't do,but aspire too......Great Sundee morning watching.
Much appreciated! Bring it home Toby!
Great video
Thanks for the visit
Out to the desert tomorrow myself too Skids, But will be watching !!!!
Awesome dude enjoy!
Cheers OBI!
Obi-WAN!!!!
AMAZING!!!!
As my dr sits in hibernation waiting for a handful of mods and next riding season I thank you for keeping me entertained skid. Keep smashin
cheers for tagging along Tyler
Incredible video mate, loved it!
Thanks a ton!
Hi Ben, your vids are the best. What are those long sleeve tees you wear ? Are they made for riding or just normal tees?
normal cheap tshirts from Kmart
Nice 👍 thanks legend
“Damn bikes, let’s put a tree on the path to block them”
Said no one to you ever 😊
Dude.. that effin DR.. you rock!
cheers for dropping in :)
@@SKIDSnSTUFF what springs/valves are you running on it?
Nevermind I found it ruclips.net/video/Wz-q4_I9Zqo/видео.html
way cool mate!
thanks
You just can't beat DR650 simple, reliable, go anywhere anytime fun!!
Not wrong
Amazing image and sound... what gear did you use to record all this?
I shoot on Olympus Em5iii. Complete gear list is in the description.
Excellent video!
You demonstrate why DR 650's are banned from the Hard Enduro series, those poor KTM's wouldn't stand a chance.
Great point!
The video turned out great! Very well! Here in Kelowna Canada it's still snowing and my xr650l is bored in the garage. But after this video, I grab my Honda and go for a drive right in the snow!
haha mad dog, have fun!
Holy crap man! Your goin hard! Great video. Perfecto editing. I am sending this video to my dad. We both ride dr650 's. Keep riding and subscribed.
Welcome along and I appreciate the sharing :)
Fkn excellent video!
You need more subscribers!
Being an obviously extremely competent rider,
how much of that do you think you could do on a larger bike?
It really depends on bike setup and suspension. Gonna Max out pretty quickly on something like big Bertha without a good chassis. Pushing it with the Warpig
Impressive skill!
thanks
Greetings
Woohoo, what a fantastic video 🇺🇸🍾🎉🇺🇸
What is the drivetrain in your motorcycle are you using in this video?
Keep producing more videos.
44/15
Man killer cinematography. Need to get you up to Darwin to some some riding here!
i hope to make it up there at some point. would like to look around arnhemland
Great riding. How about showing the outtakes.
thanks James, this vid has the outtakes/fails
🤘🏻 🌟 🤘
Amazing video. Great skills... a ktm 690 is a hard sell after seeing this!
Couldn't agree more!
This is so so good to watch!! Do you ride trials too?
Nah but use to have an enduro bike
Thought the same thing about trials. The video left me disappointed - its not the bike, its the rider, and I am deficient in skills.
Mate love it can l come and ride some of that cool forest are we talking Margaret River and would you except a modest fee for a tour of the area
...makes me want to just park my bike and throw away the keys...!😵💫😵💫😵💫
thats unfortunate i was kinda going for inspiring! :)
Love to know what areas of the country you are riding in mate?
this is WA. Mostly south west
👍💪
This shows, its about the rider not so much the bike.
would make for a strange video without the bike though ;)
🐐
Cool
you are
Don’t know where to begin. It’s unfair Skids, that a DR not a 120kg enduro bike. Unbelievable riding. No broken bones in 2022?
pretty sure i've been rocking a broken foot for the past couple months from kicking a stump. low pegs on the warpig
Ok I love the Vids....wish you would do the same on a DRZ so I can see what it's capable of...
I would be more than happy to oblige if someone wants to give me a DRZ to try :)
@@SKIDSnSTUFF you should have a Suzuki sponsorship in my mind.
Priceless advertising!
@@troyloakes2590 in that case you should be the guy who chooses suzuki sponsorships in my mind 😉
The Tenere 700 has Pol Tarres.
We have you.....
Cheers!
Bel video e complimenti per l'abilità. Solo un appunto: trovo fastidioso il rumore del tuo scarico, una specie di scorreggia continua ))))
Nella mia DR non ho mai voluto sostituire lo scarico standard per questo motivo. Rinuncio volentieri a qualche cavallo di potenza, ma la voce della moto deve essere dignitosa😅
I agree, I have swapped back to the standard exhaust now.
@@SKIDSnSTUFF Great👍
Your skills are great , but the bike looks heavy
DR is in the basement waiting for spring, so in my mind's eye I will put you to shame. Reality...I will be picking up the bike after every obstacle (assuming I could pick myself up).
I feel for those who live where the weather isnt conducive to year round riding
That’s some pretty I’m;restive riding. Must have been a pain in the hole to set up the camera for all those shots.
I kinda like the videography part as much as the riding so its not bad
What gearing do you run on the DR?
15/44 you might like to watch our bike check video
ruclips.net/video/Wz-q4_I9Zqo/видео.html
@@SKIDSnSTUFF thanks, you truly ride that DR like a dead set legend. Great bike skills 👍
I was thinking Chris birch traded his ktm for a bush pig
It's only a matter of time 😉
Mabe i don't need cone valves
This guy should find a bike he can actually ride, he seems to struggle with this one.
Warpig forever!
@@SKIDSnSTUFF you ride that scooter amazingly. Do you have a trials bike background by any chance?
I think I need to buy a POS bike that I don’t care I that I damage; I can’t afford to even try anything like that on my garage queens…
a useable bike is a goods bike
