Big Bike Enduro 3: KTM 950R Super Enduro vs Africa Twin - MVDBR Enduro

[@muddyxr4628]

No music. All engine. This is how it should be.

[@jollibeetilao3604]

yes,pure adrenaline engine sound.

[@Lewiseyers]

Never ruin a bike video with mooosic

[@alren8477]

How good does the KTM sound !!!!! F#@kin horn !!

[@JoeJoeMoto]

Man Moz can throw that big bike around!! I've always drooled over those big SEs.... such amazing bikes!f

[@MVDBR]

Bit of a wildman on that thing, awesome to watch 👌

[@raylyndon7941]

Nothing better when you have had a shit day at work and get home and watch your video's and puts a smile on my face. Two mad men on big bikes excellent.

[@MVDBR]

That's great mate, makes us happy to know we're making ya day better 🤟

[@gumbyenduroadventures6225]

The weight shifting those boys were doing on the big bikes up Rooster was first class. Very impressive to watch.

[@MVDBR]

Yeh, they're damn good on those big heavy monsters. Thanks for the comment mate 👌

[@deeemac]

Just when I think it can’t get any better Josh’s editing raises it to another level! If that’s Mick’s bad day, I’d happily settle for half that talent. Even on a “bad day” he punts a road bike like a 250?!?! The way he reads the trail and anticipates the bikes movement is incredible. Thanks for putting in the effort Mick. Moz man and the Kato are just plain nuts and it was really interesting to see the difference between the AT and SE. Easy to see where the money goes in a KTM. This one will be on repeat in my playlist for a long time yet. Thanks for the great viewing you guys definitely put together the best adventure/enduro vids out there.

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Don! Hope you're getting at least some of your money's worth then mate! Hehe cheers big fella glad you liked it 🤟

[@DK199811]

The way the AT moves so smoothly through the trails and the SE rips it up, both are amazing!! Keep up the vids, just discovered your stuff and it's amazing :D

[@MVDBR]

Cheers mate glad you like it! 👌

[@inthepumpkinpatch5383]

I love seeing those big bikes catch air it's always amazing to see what they can do!!!!

[@MVDBR]

Yeah the Kato definitely has the edge over the AT in the jumping department but Mick still doesn't mind launching it 😁👌

[@Backhurtsbad]

This has become my favorite adventure bike channel haha . You might have like 6-7 videos with big bikes but they def beat whole channels on the rest of YT.

[@MVDBR]

Haha thanks mate that's awesome. Hopefully plenty more big bike vids to come, got a few riders coming out of the woodwork keen to give it a crack. Cheers 👌

[@BrokenSprocket]

This is good to watch the big bikes in the tough stuff.

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Steve glad ya liked it 💪

[@glossblack1098]

Inspirational seeing those 2 guys riding 200+ kg adventure bikes up those steep hills. Great filming & editing too.

[@MVDBR]

Cheers mate 💪

[@JustTex]

Another madman joins the crew...good shit. Man that 950 can more some dirt! Bummer about the leak. It was funny when you show the 2 bb roaring up indicator and then show miss nat just cruising up it hahaha . Cheers 4 sharing again.

[@MVDBR]

That thing... holy shit. I get a bit worried following the AT too close but the mad bastard on the 950 had me shitting bricks! Especially after that rock hit me fair in the chest haha. Thanks for the comment Tex 😎👌

[@southernseclusion9525]

Loved watching the skill and commitment aboard those two bigens. Transferring weight like a Boss. T4S

They are good to watch mate you're not wrong there cheers, thanks for the comment 👌

The Big AT and Big Kato sounded great ripping through the trails. Top work on the video mate 👍

Oh yeah you should have heard it mate! Awesome 🤘 Cheers Danny

[@Irishpete78]

Can you send that 950 around, my garden needs digging up!

[@MVDBR]

Haha it would certainly make short work of ploughing a garden mate, I don't think it would take him long at all to do a cornfield 😅 Cheers for the comment 🤙

[@MVDBR]

Cheers Graeme, thanks for taking the time to say so mate, appreciate it 👌

[@stephaneichenlaub]

Suggestion to the 950SE rider: Gear down, rev a little higher. The 950 V2 feels like a tractor but loves pushing around 4-6000rpm. I run 15:45, love it.

[@MVDBR]

Thanks for the input mate! 🤟

[@terryrich4285]

Can't believe that Africa twin and 950 how quick they were

[@MVDBR]

Great bikes in the right hands 👌 Thanks for watching mate

[@paulfenn5060]

I ride my 950SE through similar stuff in Ontario. These bikes, once you get 'em dialed, are astonishingly competent. We have a half dozen or so around Toronto, go everywhere the little bikes go. The biggest fixes for me were the TripleClamp Moto foamdome filter, the Scotts steering damper and swapping out the OEM shock for a 990ADV one and rebuilding it, because the stocker's well known to be an untuneable dawg. The 990 shock is plush yet burly. Forks you can only do so much with, unless you're ready to part with $2-3k for Ohlins or the like. Best tires I've had for trails are the Motoz Tractionator Desert HT rear and Enduro ST front.

[@MVDBR]

Awesome Paul, thanks for your input! 🤙

[@Ingaroo1]

I always get pumped watching your videos! awesome work man can't wait to come out again!

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Inga hope ya get back down here again soon man 👌

[@scldma114]

Great video guys. The kid on the 950 is surely a better rider than I am. A match for Mick on the AT though? Naaaa not even close 😅

[@MVDBR]

Thanks for the comment mate 😁

[@iimjimbo]

I love watching you guys play especially when Mick and the at come out .. can you do a walk around damage report on the at after all the abuse .. can't wait to get knobbies for my at and get it out there

[@iimjimbo]

And you guys should head down to Vic .. come n play in the high country ...

[@MVDBR]

Yeah we might be able to check out any damage on the AT mate although it's only going to be a couple scratches. She handles it all pretty well. Thanks for the comment 👍

[@dbeat666]

This video really highlights Mick the AT riders skill... Heavier less suitable bike.. still makes it look easier then the 9fidy rider!! Maddd dog! I have a KTM 950 ADV with a heap of mods and they are a weapon of a motor!!! But damn they suck to work on!

[@nickgrant2249]

Mike you’re bloody amazing. I got an AT DCT and inspired by your riding skills. Just AWESOME 😎. Bon Riding from England 👍👍👍

[@suzyamerica4679]

Congrats on getting the rear-facing camera working right! I had mine mounted on the rear fender (Drift Ghost mini stealth) but it fell off on the last ride at Tillamook! :( Mounting it on the back of the helmet is perfect. Mad Mick has truly awesome bike handling skills to take an AT in that terrain!

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Suzy yeah we have tried the rear fender mount several times, it either falls or gets kicked off every time. Back of the helmet is definitely the winner! Cheers 🤘

[@KLRmurdercycle]

Wow that was quite the intro. Well done!!

[@MVDBR]

Thank you mate 😁👍

[@MVDBR]

Thanks Nerb! 🤙

[@VAGTurbo]

Hello many thanks to you for continuing the Big Bike Enduro series. It's just a lot of fun to see how you have fun :) People shouldn't be afraid of the big bikes. The normal Africa Twin doesn't feel as heavy as it really is and with the right tyres you can get very far in the terrain. You just have to ask Mick ;) Best regards to you

[@michaeldudley9772]

Hey VagTurbo , Ye the AT does tend to feel lighter than actual and as you say with good tyres and luck (on my part) it can go places you wouldn't expect of a big bike :)

[@MVDBR]

Thank you mate glad you enjoy the videos. I agree I had a ride on the big AT in the video before this one and I thought it was nice to ride... could I do what Mick does on it? No... but I'd definitely do more than flat gravel roads and lattes on it :)

[@VAGTurbo]

@@MVDBR I really think you're great and I'll please move on. I hope that the Big Bike Enduro series will go on :) . Greetings

[@HairyMTB]

950 rider looks more like a passenger than a rider.....Africa Twin rider is nice and smooth

[@MVDBR]

Haha I'd be happy to be anywhere near as good as either of them blokes on big bikes! 👏 Thanks for the comment man

[@HairyMTB]

MVDBR Enduro :P please keep the great content rolling

[@NPTTNP]

Far out Josh, you have quite the crew going man!!! It would sound like thunder rolling through the scrub.... The 950 might just give ol mate mad Mick a run for his money....... Were there any nobbs left on that tyre? Fk he rips it up! You might wanna invest in an armour unless your on a suicide mission LOL! Good job as always, love your work guys!!!!!!!

[@MVDBR]

Cheers bro! The tyre on the 950 definitely didn't look as good as it did at the start of the day ahahaha. Yeah nah stuff the chest plate crap I think I'll just not get behind crazy bastards on big bikes, to hell with getting the close up footage 😅

[@NPTTNP]

Haha they breed em tough in your neck of the woods! Even the chicks kick some serious ass.....👍👌😎

Cheers Jeff! Thanks for the comment mate 🤙

[@Eidrian111]

Damn that 950r sound like a freaking beast

[@PennsylvaniaDualSport]

And this is why you don’t need the “Adventure Sports” model for the extra 1” of ground clearance 🙄!

[@michaeldudley9772]

Ye it gets by although , a little more clearance could be handy at times but then, I like the low seat height tha comes with the lower ground clearance

[@YoYa_ghost]

That's how you ride an adventure bike I like the guy on the KTM

[@rocketj7449]

@@MVDBR by the way, love the exhaust notes from the at and ktm. What systems are you guys using?

[@MVDBR]

@@rocketj7449 Mick uses a $30 eBay slip-on on the AT and the 500 has an Akro titanium 👍

[@pietropugni5118]

KTM rider is impressive, but the AT' is the best in my opinion because the rider is older and the bike is heavier and less suitable for real enduro stuff. Good footage!

[@Dailyrider94]

i got a feeling that the ktm rider rides purely on adrenaline and not so much on skills in comparison to the AT. But they're having fun! :)

I just purchased an Africa Twin because of Mick and his antics on the trails.I would be happy to be half as good at riding it as he is.What did he do to get that (BEAST SOUND) from the exhaust?One thing for sure if I ever one the lottery travelling to Australia and riding with you guys would be first on my "Bucket List".Many Thanks from your friend in Northern Canada.

[@MVDBR]

Pretty sure all it takes is a cheapy generic exhaust can off eBay mate and it'll sound exactly the same 🤟 Be happy to have ya down under for a ride chief 😎

[@actstuntcam]

Doubt I will ever have the courage or skill to ride like this off-road. Amazing. I was trying to think what bike I could ride some of that harder stuff on - might have been able to do it on my WR426 on my best day.

[@billness2635]

I discounted the idea of going to a 2 into 1 exhaust on my 990, but I have to reconsider now that I’ve heard how it sounds on the 950. It’s awesome! Probably takes 20lbs off the tail too.

[@MVDBR]

I would have thought the twin pipes sound better... but 20lbs is 20lbs 👌

[@michaeldudley9772]

Bill Ness , Cant beat the twin Akros on the LC8s but , I ran a GPR 2-1 on my 950 , sounded pretty sweet too . Also ran a single Barrett for a bit and it was ok .

[@billness2635]

Mine still has the heavy stock mufflers with cats. There are so many aftermarket options that I don’t know which way to go. I’m going to call Chris at Rottweiler for an intake and a couple of other bits and I’m sure he can steer me in the right direction. Then send me a tune for the changes. He supplied all of my parts and service for my 690 Dakar Rally bike that I took to Africa. He knows his stuff!

[@leemski]

#HondaAfricaTwin is so capable in hands of Mick! Does Mick have his own channel on KZbin? Is Mick a professional rider? Or maybe adventure bike instructor? He's incredible on his bike.

[@MVDBR]

Not that I know of :)

Awesome vid guys - these are two bikes I'm considering buying, along with Tenere 700 (once there are second hand ones around). QUESTION: I noticed, that the KTM appeared to have less traction. Would you say that was tire choice? Tire pressure? suspension? or engine characteristics? Traction control? some combination of these things. Cheers Cam:)

[@MVDBR]

Hey Cam, I'm no expert and I may be way off base here but from where I was sitting I'd say it was 99% to do with heavy handed throttle control on the part of the SE rider 😎👌
