CFMOTO Ibex800T/800MT Explores the Birth Place of the Current River....

[@markmcarthy596]

Missouri’s geography is so unique-the sharp divide between north and south features was helped out by a chain of meteor strikes along the 38th parallel. Traveling from east to west they scarred and “cracked open” the bedrock bringing underground water to the surface and exposing (possibly delivering) many of the minerals found around Washington, St Francois and Iron counties. I’ve several meteorites and impactites in these areas, as well ancient stone tools and minerals.

Thank you for sharing your riding area with us. I've never been to your region of the country. I enjoy your lighthearted commentary on your ventures away from the World Headquarters.

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

When we were kids I remember my dad using creosote on the fences mixed up with a gallon of engine oil that he'd just changed. Those fences lasted forever!

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Hello there sir, good to hear from you... creosote is the ultimate preservative for sure or at least it was before the EPA banned it... Thanks for watching... :)

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

I rode my mighty Tiger 1200 down to West Plains Saturday and went through Chen’s drive-thru for some groceries. Made me think of your last visit. Great video as always. Ride safe!

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you sir, yes Chen's has the best groceries in West Plains... thanks for watching... :)

[@klh3244]

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you Hank, thanks for watching.. :)

[@henryhawk978]

The bars in the windows, I thought at first it was a mental hospital.

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Hey there Hank... good to hear from you... The Park service bared it up to keep folks out of the cave... Thanks for watching... :)

[@thekikendallsautoandrandom1271]

John next time your in the salem/licking/rolla area riding the ibex find me! Would love to take the two ibexs for a roam!

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you sir... sounds like we are both Stallman customers... Thanks for watching... :)

[@thekikendallsautoandrandom1271]

Yup! If youve been up there lately, the used 23 KLR 650s for sale is the bike i traded in for my 800t.

[@randyhanlon4746]

Good job. Your bike is set up nice, you buy the quality equipment. You get what you pay for right? Safe journeys.

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you sir, Thanks for watching :)

[@anthonywilhelm8177]

Been looking at this bike. Trying to decide between it and the tenere 700. Any big complaints on this bike?

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you sir... Yes the fuel mapping is not good on the Ibex... is suffers from lean surging at lower rpm's.. that is my biggest complaint with the bike... Until CFMOTO fixes the fueling on the 800T and 800S I am giving them a " do not recommend to purchase rating... for now I would go with the Tenere.... thanks for watching... keep safe out there... :)

[@FranklinBurns42]

You sure it’s a hospital? Sure looks like a jail to me. Lol

[@GaryWilbert-o7s]

Why do you own a Tiger 800 and a CF Moto 800

[@ozarksbackroads5484]

Good to hear from you sir, I own a Tiger and an Ibex because I cannot afford any more bikes at the moment. The new Trans Alp and that new BMW 900GS would look really nice in the garage with the Ibex ant the Tiger... Thanks for watching.. :)
