    Guys, I sincerely apologize for all the Kove content. I've gotten too many comments from old friends who are tired of hearing about Kove. I've been excited about the bike for a long time. I firmly believe that it has the potential to change dual sport as we know it, and I'm stoked for Mason at the Dakar. But frankly, I'm tired of talking about it, too. I'm tired of talking about horsepower and specs and all the other BS that other channels cover so much better. Not just on the Kove, but on any motorcycle. I don't care about motorcycles anymore. I care about *riding* them. I care about the *people* on them. RUclips has become a soulless dong waving competition, and now the "promote" button means it's pay to win, and I won't pay. When it comes to motorcycles, you can have fun on a Hawk 250, you can have fun on a KTM Rally Replica. Who cares which one you're on as long as YOU are having fun? I'm so tired of RUclips. So tired of social media in general. It's toxic. I plan on reinventing the channel with a focus on mental health, and even though those videos utterly bomb, I hope it has the potential to help somebody. That's what I'm about. Not about which motorcycle strokes your ego... but about *people* and what motorcycles do to *connect* us... not pull us apart.

As a veteran thank you for sharing about your mental heath challenges. Love ya brother 😊

      Eh it seems to be a small minority that have a stick up their arse. Do want you want. You helped change my mind on Chinese bikes. I used to hate them like everyone else. I now own a CFmoto 800 Ibex and really want to get either a Lifan KPX or a GPX FSE 250 E.
      They've come a long way and so have you.
      Too many other channels focus on the BS like the TransAlp because they go off of polls, you go off of your gut and that has brought you further than them tbh. It makes you a better person tbh.

    Your content and channel is top notch. Highlighting and helping bring much needed support and attention to Mason Klein is a great thing for you to do and I believe most of your fans/subscribers see this and also support you in this. Kove is exciting and is a game changer and you are helping shed light on this. But people don’t like change and I think that is what you are up against. I am Mason’s next door neighbor he (and his brother) are solely responsible for getting my 11 yr old into dirt bikes, not only helping with riding tips but also maintenance on my son’s bike!
    They are a great family and he is a super talented rider (his brother is no slouch winning the Baja 1000 this year)
    I appreciate this video, keep up the good work - content creation is not easy. Let’s see how high Mason can climb on his Kove. It’s going to be a fun ride watching him compete.

    I love seeing how much Mason has matured both as a rider and young dude. I think he was a shy 17 or 18 "kid" when I first met him (and he left me in the dust chasing him and Skyler across the Mojave). Absolutely stoked for him and I know he is destined for great success. We'll be watching every second of Dakar and supporting him all the way 🤘

    I like the Kove content. I loke that a manufacturer is trying to build the best bike possible at a reasonable price instead of a "good enough" bike that is ridiculously over priced. I bought a new AJP PR7 for less money than a new KTM 300cc two-stroke...the 300 is an excellent dirt bike, but it is stupid expensive for a weekend toy.

    To be honest I really miss the old drz400 days of Everide, when it wasn't all about the bike, just the ride and the scenery. I still go back and watch alot of those old videos because the production and scenery were epic. I literally loaded up our bikes in '21 and made the trek from the eastern US to Utah to ride for my son's graduation present because of some of those earlier episodes. No problem though, interests and obligations change, I get it. But, I do want to say thank you for those videos that left such an impact on me.

    Keep the vids up man, we're just having fun here and enjoy your content. Looking at this from the outside in, looks like you've become a rather large 'face' for the Kove and that can be heavy, can feel like the criticism is on you when folks talking the bike.
    Plus this vid was just as much on Mason/rallying which is a unique form of riding that, as crazy as it is for me, Kove bikes being in the Dakar has kinda got me more into that form of riding. Keep on keepin on (and riding on) man. Hoping I can make one of your rallys next year.

    I've been writing in the comments in all the Kove reviews that Kove needs to partner with an experienced Privateer. I'm glad to see that someone at Kove apparently saw my advice and decided to follow it. In his first Dakar he finished top ten. Last year he won a stage and was running top 10 before crashing out. I hope Kove gives him enough support to equal or better his previous results.
    Had you published this video a month or two sooner, we could have started a Go Fund Me to cover those expenses for him that he said he didn't have enough money to pay.

    Hey Tyler,
    I can tell you've gotten a lot of mixed feedback on the Kove videos. Personally I'll preface this by saying I'm not a chinese bike hater or a Kove hater. I do think sometimes these videos can feel more like an advertisement but I don't think it's as bad as people make it out to be. I think this video talking to Mason is pretty cool. It's cool to hear from somebody like him. I think I'd like to see more videos of you and your buddies just going out and riding. You can absolutely be on the Kove or whatever bike you want, but I think the focal point should be the riding rather than the bike and I think that'll make it feel less like an ad.
    Also I will say this about these Chinese bikes. I'm really into dual sport and adventure riding. It's absolutely my favorite hobby and it's what I'm passionate about. The thing that really sucks is I'm 21 years old. Everyone I meet who is into this sport is usually 10+ years older than me, higher if it's just adventure riding. There's nothing wrong with this of course, I don't mind hanging out with and chatting with people older than me. But realistically it does make it hard for me to make friends who ride. Maybe it's just because people my age are usually into enduro or MX or just dirt bikes exclusively.
    But the cost of entry is almost certainly a factor. This hobby can be pretty expensive, especially to those who just don't have the information on how a cheap DRZ or DR650 is enough. I appreciate how some of these chinese bikes lower that cost to entry factor, and I appreciate how there's some level of quality to some of the Chinese brands. I'm more than happy to acknowledge that if a newbie buys a chinese bike and it shits the bed, that's probably going to turn them away from the hobby. But at least they'd get a chance to try it. I appreciate that if I was in the position to, I could get a Hawk 250 and let my friends who don't ride try it and I wouldn't have to worry too much about them wrecking.
    This problem is only amplified with adventure riding. Adventure bikes are so expensive, and the target market of a lot of them is that 50-54 age range. These people usually have a lot of buying power and are fine with paying the premium. The average college age person is not going to be spending $500 on a luggage system, or $15k on an adventure bike. So I appreciate it when people show off the more budget options. The Kove 450 may not exactly be budget, but specs relative to price seems pretty fair, especially if you compared it to a 701 with a rally kit or something similar.
    Writing this turned more into a rant than I intended, but it's all to simply say, I don't think showing off Kove is exactly the problem, in fact I think it's good to show the more budget options in the space. I think it can just come off as more of an advertisement than you intend. I think shifting towards videos of just riding and exploring, and maybe you're on a Kove in those videos, maybe you're not, could be a better approach.
    Michael

    • @inrptn
      @inrptn Год назад +2

      I feel your pain. I started adv riding at 24 years old. All of my riding friends were at least 5-10 years older than me. I rode a DR650 for about 5 years and then went to a DRZ400. I'm 39 now and only just starting to have the budget to get something like a fully adventure ready KTM 790 or T7, Taureg, etc. But you know what, I'd take a Kove 450 over all of them, and not just because of slightly lower price, but for the capability, specs and performance and less need to adventurize it.

    I got to test ride the Kove for New Years. I agree with Mason about the Kove power. I like it. Fueling is good. It lugs 2nd just fine. It never burps or farts or hickups when im in the wrong gear at the wrong revs. And it rewards you when you do it right. I love my wr250r and the kove power band feels the same shape as that. I hopped on and felt right at home.
    I have 20L of fuel on my wr250r and it feels much heavier then the kove because the weight is up so much higher.
    In the dirt i loved the gearbox. But on the street i did wish 5th and 6th were a bit taller. Geared 13/51 it was really nice at 65mph and id love that to be 75mph.

Mason is 1,85m , but when riding on the bike around eg. 10 min mark his legs are quite cramped compared to other videos with Kove and tall (even taller guys). Is it because he was testing different peg positions as he talked in that part or is it because that Rally Pro (Factory, whatever) is having them placed so differently compared to regular version?

    Loved the video @everide. Thanks for covering things your passionate about . I think your a great story teller and videographer. You could put out great content on anything your passionate about.
    YT content for money sounds like a rough game after listening to @dorkintheroad talk about it. Internalizing less positive comments would make it even rougher.
    Take care of yourself and keep healing so you can get some ride therapy in.

    he seems very mature for his age at least more than me, with 54.
    I hope he wins.
    power on 450s MX, I tried one last week, it was great, plenty power but the 250 two Stroke that I tried once impressed me more,
    I got a DRZ 400 that I bought because of everide to replace my old XR that was broken.
    I like the bike, for I replace this bike it could be a KTM 690 but then again it's a KTM and I don't trust it.
    I guess I will be waiting for a new Suzuki DRZ 600, or any new japanese similar to the 690.
    I don't like the lines of the kove, they are not appealing to me and for me the lines count, I sure like a bike that is good but good to the eyes too, like for example the Yamaha WR 450 or any Japanese bike like that, or ktm.
    I don't like fairings on Enduro bikes or dual sport bikes.

Also, listening the financial side of the story ... i would indeed like to make my small contribution to mr. Klein team efforts - is there some company or bank account or.... how could i support his journey? I would really appreciate if you could let me know! Thank you!

      If the bike he gets is as good as the factory bike was last year, he should be top 10 and maybe a podium. It all depends on whether the Chinese can suck up their ego and give him a bike good enough to beat their own riders.

      Well Kove is for sure not paying me. Low key road driver from central Europe. But was waiting for such bike for years. No one else is doing it, only Kove so well already waiting for one. Followed them nearly from day one and was hoping. Then friends bought Zontes and had no problems during 3 years (while KTMs around were dying like flies 😀). Honda with CRF300 Rally seemed to get close, but then crap suspension and low performance arrived and was another nono (but bought their ADV 350 which is great)
      So it is pretty easy. And as Mason said, but you can see that yourself in any racing every vendor have troubles. Same public with enduro riding on KTMs and such. If they are so bulletproof and not "crap" as people pointing against China then why people spend so much money on parts for them? ;-) I do not see any other mark making something similar. Fantic or KTM replica are in completely different price category like is Kove 450 EX. Not any of those 3 is normal bike for regular public and most of them will not be able to use potential of those so having some "detuned" version of the same makes perfect sense even from business perspective. That's where Kove hit the nail on the head hard and everyone else is just in shock out of that.
