@ericwilliams6262 жыл бұрын
Do not think its wise to use the CT for traveling. If you wish to use a small bike to travel use the TW200. The only issue with that bike is long term use on the carburetor and if you want to fiddle with that issue. I was considering it but I have something in a larger form factor that is similar and I like the Honda nostalgia of the CT for around town.

I learned riding the tat from Damascus Virginia to telico that trying to keep everything charged is a chore. And almost makes the ride not enjoyable. I would recommend getting several batteries pack to charge stuff like you already have then stopping and doing a cheap hotel every 2 or 3 days. It can be a pain in the ass to video it all, but you do an exceptional job at it..... also I'm not sure if you carry a firearm. But I would highly advise it. Me and my dad ran into a naked man in north Carolina on the tat who had been shot 5 times and left for dead. He had been there 3 days laying in the ditch. It was extremely nerve racking because neither of us brought our pistols and didn't know if someone was up in the woods trying to jump us or not. He ended up getting life flighted out of there. Drug deal gone bad.

I have not done any long distance riding, but have done lots of trail riding across many years; many XR’s, KDX250, and a CT90. I’m here because I’m interested and kicking around the idea of doing the TAT. One thing about your situation and bike selection is that there are two of you… two people can team up and wrestle a couple of heavy Enfield’s through the truly difficult spots while still being comfortable and having abundant power on the other 98% of the trip. So far I’m considering a XR650l.. lowered w/ a different seat.

Check out the TAT videos if you get the chance - we ended up taking the CT125's. I did half the country solo and it was great. Then I hooked up with Johnny Pow in Colorado to finish - and that was also great. Hope you get to do the TAT - you won't regret it. I've done some overnights with the REH too and I love that bike - but it probably would have been too heavy for me on the TAT. Would have really liked to have the speed of the himmy on the slab though... (and the comfort and better luggage setup options...)

I used to have those maps. I'm 54 and a truck driver for 33 years had to find my way around LA . The millennials would not know what you're talking about they probably don't even know what a mile marker is.lol

6:40 You're using two phones here with two different mapping tools I assume? I think I recognize Gaia maps on the left, but could you briefly explain your setup and what you like about it? Thanks man!

I'd read where some folks like to have one zoomed in to see turns and one zoomed out to make sure you haven't gotten off track so I think I was trying that out. (Also was testing out the two different phone mounts). I get why people would do that - but at some point I just went back to using one phone with Gaia at about 2,000 feet and it was fine.
