[@curzon394x]

I'm a simple man. I see a Motology upload I stop what I am doing, like the video before I watch it, then I proceed with my day and with my love for riding on my brain re-energized. :)

[@Macgregor_images]

Me too 😂

[@roshnajithesh687]

guess i'm a simple girl then :)

[@Collins690]

I am a street rider,commuter,riding NC-750x manual transmission,but I can testify that from the I encountered this channel and this brother’s work,my ridding experience had just grown wings….I really appreciate you brother. I have been a rider for 22 years now,but I can tell you that your channel is good to me,looking forward to joining your channel

[@JakeyJay26]

Your ability to explain what would otherwise be impossible, using practical instruction on video is truly world class. Thank you very much.

[@ultimatepu5h]

Not only is Adam freaking fire on the bike, he always drops the truth bombs too! 👊👊

[@rustymustard7798]

99% of 'advice' out there for real riding is all hype and cope, this guy is the real deal.

[@nickg2431]

As a all round top level rider + easy and approachable style with no big headedness adam,s content is one of the best on YT.Everything he tells you about off road riding is of value

[@leecoates6524]

mate the skills your sharing dont just help the adventure rider they help enduro cattle musterers farmers checking remote fencing the whole entire bike culture , and the way you teach us with practical viewing is amazing my nephew started riding and i told him don't learn from me watch ARiemann 1 learn from the guy i learn from keep up the good work and make sure you have fun too thanks mate

[@christiaanF1]

Adam, thanks, mate. Not only do you share your knowledge. You show us how to be a better and a smarter rider. Many people will ask you a bunch of money and chase you around the bush for what Adam just showed us. And has been showing us for many years. May God bless you for the good intentions you have, mate. You are brilliant.

[@ORLLLLY]

This man here helped me so much with getting more comfortable riding offroad - insane

[@JamesAbrahams-nj8wd]

Always excellent advice and certainly helping me be more confident on the dirt. Love that 'Bob & Marge' continue to feature - my UK mates look very puzzled when I mention them 🙂 Keep them coming Adam - always informative and well made.

[@gadgetman_nz4092]

Ha, ha. This video reminds me of the one where you were teaching the technique of braking to scrub speed before hitting an obstacle then releasing the brake to unload the front before hitting. A couple of days after that I was driving a van around the hills and encountered a shallow ditch across the road. I instinctively followed your advice. Passenger didn't see or feel the ditch. I can confirm that it works on other than motorbikes. Now I haven't been on a motorbike for about 40 years but about to drop some money on a little farm bike. Should be fun. Light, nimble and manageable for an old cripple. My adventuring kit would only weigh about 15-20kg for tramping or kayaking for a week. Looking forward to it. Thanks for another excellent, no nonsense video.

[@TheRealSykx]

Awesome, have fun!

[@fwijffels]

I was already aware of counter steering in low speed situations, but now I learned that counter steering has an incredible usacase at high speed too! Awesome

[@Toonces311]

"my core followers,.......off-road riders that are transitioning to adventure" You are an oracle mate!

[@OsadabwaMoto]

I really like that somebody's showing fast cornering, and light luggage setups. Are you 100% better rider than I am, yes! Which is precisely why I like to watch. If people are pissed off by these vids, they can quit watching them. Now... bring that baby to Kenya and lets test it in the stones!

[@-W8WHAT]

I have been riding for ever it seems, and honestly know my stuff....BUT Geeez....i always learn so much more from Adam's clear simple advice videos!!! Quality stuff...RESPECT!!! 😎✌

[@TriAngles3D]

While watching a list of Motology videos a new one pops up... Have to watch it.

[@tonyspencer4379]

I'd love to comment and tell you how much these videos have helped me with my adventure bike trips (helped me more than any other resource) but these videos have transformed my abilities on my dirt bike. What I've learned here has helped in ways I hadn't thought possible. Especially when you talked about letting off throttle/brakes when the wheel slide or could slide. I genuinely appreciate these lessons.

[@dionoliveira4058]

This is like giving gold away, you are good man Adam, keep em wheels turning.

[@hsscha]

invaluable, thank you as always!

[@jovcha]

Great advice! Thank you Adam

[@Braapncamp]

Awesome Adam, i always learn from Your pedagogic training vids 👌✊🏻✊🏻

[@REBOUNDMOTO-kb1ws]

Always solid content and advice mate! Your videos have been incredible helping me on my journey! Although I carried way too much, learning from your skillset and expertise is 👌

[@user-hq7rb5hv7s]

great info...bringing back my old training and riding days

[@mattguzzim1744]

As always, top notch direction and advice. Thanks!

[@Grazzo77]

Golden, Mate! Keep up the good work. We talk about counter steering on the road and track all the time but you are the first I've heard talking about it on the dirt. The hill climb was awesome, fantastic to watch.

[@johndemmink3539]

Your honesty shines thru! Appreciate your insights. Thx.

[@greyfisher3897]

All "self proclaimed" instructors out there take heed to Adam's master classes, best on the planet hands down, he will reshape the ADV world in time with his "truth bombs" and no nonsense expertise and teaching with clarity, no B.S., no stories from the great book of motorcycle myths common in most other instructional videos out there...thank goodness.....This man is saving lives from camel collisions, reducing helicopter rescue rates, and preventing (at least to a minimum) the "its part of the adventure" broken legs. Bottom line, this sport is an intellectual endeavor. "make some better choices in what they are buying" "the more comfort you have, the less enjoyable the riding...you are kidding yourself otherwise"....This man can articulate.......Cheers from Canada....

[@sidmarks265]

Balance, control, confidence and experience personified. Thanks Adam.

[@screaminR6]

Another great video! Thanks for the wisdom Adam! 😎

[@AgentJayZ]

I've got a quarter million miles of riding experience... on pavement. Trying to learn gravel and dirt on a G/S. These videos are extremely helpful. You taught me how to corner on loose gravel. Thanks heaps!

[@gonegliding2966]

all good information. cheers!

[@martincyr7259]

Greatly appreciate the techniques you teach. Always clear and precise. Now, time to practice. Thanks Adam!

[@spsingam]

I need to practice this within my capability. Thank you Adam for another skills improvement video.

[@TheDailyRider]

Wow! I know all about counter steering coming from riding ninja, GPS and Ducatis in my young age. I now ride adventurer bikes and I was taught to mosthly use pegs steering off road. This is a revelation to me! have to practice that ,thanks!

[@ToroZxF1]

Hey Adam, i realy like this kind of your Clips. There is so much knowledge in only 13 Minuts. Im totally in love with your Camera Setup. No Film Crew or fancy Stuff, just you and the Camera. Thanks man

[@baciucatalin2199]

Your videos are amazing! I feel like my best friend is teaching me how to be safe and have fun on the bike. Just great

[@paulmedwin]

Very informative, keep up the great videos mate.

[@mikelowry1053]

Thanks mate, great video.

[@antonisp6629]

excellent video!!

[@glenweeks7615]

Great education as always.

[@konxx8280]

So much FUN sitting in your school & learning. Even after 40 years there is sooooooo much left to learn and to do! Thank you and regards from south-west of Germany

[@user-qh5pp9jm3y]

Brilliant brilliant brilliant. Thank you for finally showing instructions with a loaded bike. You should train how and what you ride, on a bike you use, loaded the way you travel. It drives me insane watching instructional videos on naked and unloaded bikes, exactly the way no one actually rides. Thanks for the reality over theory approach. Love your work, take care.

[@tf841]

Love it! I will apply this to dirt bikes!

[@hehanssen]

This is my favorite KZbin Channel! I just instantly know the content is going to be top quality and very interesting, whenever a new video uploads! Thanks for doing what you do, and sharing your knowledge with the community. I''m really hoping to bump into you somwhere in the north for your next Norwegian adventure 🙂

[@Pcfly]

Always great insights Adam, appreciate your advice and videos. Mint!🖖

[@gregheth]

This is so valuable. Thanks

[@rickybobby1055]

This helps thanks. Took my T7 up to Idaho with friends last year and had a blast, this year going solo to northern montana. Thanks for the info!

[@philipbarton2634]

your videos are just outstanding. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

[@buckfiftyfilms6088]

Really enjoyed this and other tutorials on the channel. Please keep them, coming!

[@WayneSutton]

I learn a lot from you! A fellow T7 rider! Thanks!

[@pilgrim.on.a.motorcycle]

I really appreciate all the input Adam. It is also great to see you working with the 'World Raid'. I took the nice Black plastic Radiator cover off mine and used plastic screws to secure some mesh to the back of it - to keep out the larger stuff.

[@SagarSheldekarOfficial]

GodSpeed Adam! You are like the tree of knowledge that keeps on giving. Cheers!

[@jpadv4157]

Thanks Adam, coming from road, these tips are very helpful as not much transfers over. Its a bit like learning to ride from scratch and learning to ride counter intuitively in some cases

[@charlesbarnett2724]

Love your videos. No nonsense. You make it look easy😅 Cheers mate.

[@DanielMores]

It's so soothing listening to you explain stuff 🙂

[@cyclemoto8744]

"the more comfort you have, the less enjoyable the ride". This is exactly what i've been attempting to explain to others in various discussions however I have failed to articulate my point in such a short succinct manner. As usual, very well said Adam. Thanks for sharing. Cheers

[@TheSilmarallion]

Thank you for this, I was wondering how to go around the corner like this, thanks for the explanation.

[@LostnRunning]

Light is right for adventure bike luggage. Soft bags ftw too. Cheers again Adam👍

[@JBMOZ]

Thanks Adam.

[@karlwebb8914]

Another great video especially for a newbie off road/adventure rider thanks 🙏 😅

[@lukefish7562]

What’s up my friend! Thank ya Adam! I watched a couple videos before going out to ride this AM as I’m always trying to learn. Take care buddy!💪🏽 🏍️💨

[@MALVSMACHINE]

Oosh! the life of a two wheel drifter 🤘🏻

[@majorlee1]

I am definitely not on the same skill level as you my friend. But, your videos have helped me get a lot better. Thank you 👍

[@MotoFishy]

Doing my first bike trip on the new 800DE, and really my first motocamping trip. Swapped out to the soft side bags last night for the first time and it's really making me think about packing order and what I really need. One day I'll get to the harder offroad stuff, but new tires will be a must. The OEMs won't do much in the dirt and sand.

[@RealHooksy]

You’re on a good bike to take your journey on mate. Good luck 👍

[@Mick_English]

If your gonna watch an instructional video about motorcycle riding in all its forms then here's the Channel. Cheers Adam 👍🏻

[@hewi6460]

Great video 🔥

[@ovelhanegra8252]

thk for yours explanations you rock man

[@unrealr1]

Love your video's and plain speak. Thanks for all your efforts.

[@stanm2.0]

the last minute or so of this video is so true and right on for what all us adventure riders need to hear. I can't tell you how much of your advice I have taken to heart. the whole video is great and filled with so much advice, knowledge and things to work on and practice. your truly are a great teacher....thanks for everything...@stanforadventure

[@TheRealSykx]

You're getting pretty good with the cinematography

[@phongo3301]

Great video. I've learned all of these technique on Vietnam's road. Everyday drive is an offroad.

[@javasoldier5926]

nice vid thanks 4 tutorial

[@caseybyrnes2697]

Nice reference to caravan, very clear and understandable too.👍

[@Garage_Perkele]

Regular Bob and Marge roast. I like it😌

[@smacnee3278]

I am happy to consider myself one of the core viewers. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge. ❤

[@mediocremichael]

Yup yup. Good stuff!

[@ralfabel8657]

It looks allways so easy, but I know it's hard work and practice. Unfortunately the not so easy in the middle of Germany to find good places for that. Thanks for your advice😀

[@alveyhighway]

i like that, comfort vs fun at the end

[@kokkiematematika1931]

For me this was a well-timed watch. Currently riding with much luggage and gravel & sand awaiting me. Thank you much

[@faisalarh]

I can only say thank you for your service sharing your knowledge and experience on this free channel, and not behind membership paywall (membership).

[@DavidGibson-se1ev]

Some great pointers Adam as always you Make it look so easy Thanks heaps for the tips Dave

[@danielhill136]

Hi Adam, your teaching and craft is Fantastic,love watching you work,keep ‘em coming,Happy Easter ol mate🍺👍🇦🇺

[@danbad6875]

thanks for sharing your knowledge, i hope to be a skilled rider like you one day

[@brettmenzie982]

Owning a 501 and now an 890 I find my 501 sits a lot so I guess I’m in that transition you speak of. Awesome informative videos.

[@MotologyFilms]

It comes with age.

[@samcooper4984]

I want to go from a 300 two stroke to a t7 and these videos are a massive help ro bridge that gap. Cheers mate.

[@christiaanF1]

Go checkout his videos on the 300, man oh man you would want to keep that 300..

[@2WHEELADVLIFE]

Great riding advice. Relax your chassis and your mind!! 👊

[@chrisblanchard4938]

Love your videos. I went from a KTM 250xcf-w to a KTM 500 excf after watching your video of the adventure trip you did with the 500.

[@maraudermitchelli]

Excellent but hurtful I’m the old guy trying to adventure ride by swiping my credit card. This man inspires me to try harder and train 😊

[@bensteere1781]

i hope you knoticed the cap off your fuel spout went flyin in the video ,hope you didnt lose it . Your a legend yet another great Vid . Im just getting my camping gear and saddle bags organised cant wait to give it a crack .youve inspired me to use the bike more than i usually would .Keep up the great work

[@RealHooksy]

Another cracking lesson from the guy who knows what he’s talking about 😎

[@philbowl1442]

I am planning to switch from naked bike to travel enduro tenere 700 next year. But as a newbie to this adventure riding i will have to practice a lot before ill go on a trip. Thank you for those videos.

[@robkeogh4593]

This is why I decided to pony up for membership. I probably could have done with the steering lesson a bit earlier, i still have the ARB badge inprint on my left knee from a few weeks back. Something to practice in a month or so👍

[@MotologyFilms]

Thanks for the support mate, hope you're back on the bike soon.

[@user-co4ey6mm3e]

simply brilliant tutorial - THANKS - so easy to understand - love the bob and marge ! but so TRUE 🤣🤣

[@enduromotorradtouren]

I really like that you put emphasis on actual skills - instead of trying to buy them ;-) Happy days, Günter/Nürnberg (on TransEuroTrail France soon)

[@vijayam1]

You and the war horse are a match made in heaven.

[@teatowel11]

Brilliant

[@lordvader2060]
