my last ride was a mud mess in unexpected down pour of rain, lost the bike going up hill, couldn't get footing to pick up bike, sliding down hill, soaked muddy and running out of steam, as the gang below are cracking up YUK, remember GT when we were coming out of that cannon that was dark from tree cover(headlight beams bouncing everywhere and it was wet roots all the way up and out, great ride, long day, will never forget. Note: Bring extra batteries and a snack when riding with @Dirtable, sweet head stamp Bud, I think I see Jesus and a music note in it, lol

I was down that hill a few days earlier. Its one of those where you know you shouldn't be going down it but . . . . you do anyways :)

Gooey mud, in a rut, wet root and panic braking. My fault. These cameras never give proper view of the terrain. It looks flat and boring. I promise, that’s not flat!

How'd you even fall

I gave my buddies a small little kit (fire starters water filter)to keep in their sxs

Good video, heading out to look through my kit. Teeaker tamer should be backed up with bear spray. Tweakers hate bear spray and it’s a lot less paperwork/ liability.

You can go down the medical rabbit hole but some foam Sam splint can help a lot with broken limbs. It usually comes packaged flat so fitting it in a pack would be really easy and for motorcycle repairs some foam covered metal wouldnt be bad to have. Most times I’ve ever been where shit went wrong riding was usually dislocated/broken bones. I also see those photos of impalement and thats in the back of my mind when i think worse case scenario while riding. In winter months its staying warm/dry is the first thing that i would address though. Old rule of thumb was the rule of 3’s. On average an average human can go 3 sec without any blood, 3 minutes without any air, 3 hours without shelter (in extreme conditions) 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food generally before you die.

Where are you riding ? I ride solo in the mojave and some very remote places in Baja ( I live there ), it seems like what you forgot is an extraction plan, weather planning and a movement plan that sets stuff in motion if you stop moving for a specified amount of time without coms, these are probably more important than what you can fit in a backpack. Tools, basic first aid, hydration all necessary. Now the elephant in the room, and I am not anti, the last time I rode with a carry guy he shot himself. Many will say with a proper holster, and a safety it can't happen, that in a backpack coming off at 40 mph and cartwheeling changes things ...

Great kit! 👍 I like using the chewable electrolyte tabs so you don't need to gunk up water bladder and they are easier to get too. Good call on PB, I usually use some of those goo packs. I also always carry a cheap lightweight Frog Togs waterproof jacket depending on where you are riding. Out of curiosity, how do you carry your handgun?

I added a hand saw this last year. I always relied on a battle buddy to have one until one day we all didn’t.

Where's your pew pew? Gotta be ready for anything!

I love riding into the sun in tree trails😂

Imagine if more riders did!

It’s amazing how many trails you can make with 3-4 ppl, a chainsaw and a day or two

Battlegrounds?

Both are awesome bikes. Cheapest upgrade to boost low end grunt add a tooth on the rear of the xc. Beta- zero complaints at all

Aw pretty girl!

I'm at 13/48.. there's a nice gap between 2 and 3rd on these transmissions. I'm thinking of 13/50 too.

Awesome terrain!

The big difference is no efi? Don’t have to climb in the tank to start. Also you can buy a kicker so buy the kicker and add that. Beta is tons better

Nice!

Whoa! Cool :D

Nice!!!!!

"Oh my God thats a long way down" Just what I was thinking ! Time to respect the mountain.

Fantastic review!! I’m thinking about getting a 2025 300xc I rode the 2024 and fell in love instantly. The power and handling of the stock bike was so amazing I couldn’t stop smiling. I weight 165 with all my gear on and I think the suspension felt great no complaints at all. Tight single track in Massachusetts

Got about 17 miles in today in west tn. Good day

Great ride!

Love these videos. Keep them coming!!

Awesome bike!

That guy your chasing looks like a good rider! 😊

Wow, you got to hit some amazing areas!

Look at those views!

Bad place for vertigo to kick in!

Yes, lol. The East side is gnarly!!!!😂

Is that prairie city?

Badass love that place!! ❤

Looks awesome!

Hell yeah 👍🏼

Love that place!

Great place and video. Thanks for sharing

Love the content. Keep it up!!!

Great footage!

Gotta love GT!❤❤❤

Is this Idaho? That looks like a blast out there!

I’m 6’4” 240lbs and have been running on stock suspension until this weekend where it’s been worked on by factory connection, haven’t ridden the new suspension yet. I’m on a 2024 250xc. Coming from a life of Honda crf450’s. All I can say is this bike is amazing! The most fun and best riding motorcycle made at the moment. It’s light, flickable, responsive, and the power hit is a hoot. I don’t care if 450’s are more powerful or “faster”. I’m riding for fun, not pro, and this bike is where it’s at. I love Honda but I’ll have a hard time going back as long as these smokers are being built.

Cool stuff out there

Great video!!

That soil on the dry lake bed is so heavy and it robs power more than sand!

Does anyone know roughly how much hp these 300s put down?
