GSXR Off Roading - Baron von Nightmare

[@jd2192]

Going from 0 to regret in 3.2 seconds

[@Clocktacular]

Awesome Comment Bro ! :D

[@chrisbradshaw7273]

Can't believe 8 years has passed since I first watched this, where does the time go !? ...and I'm glad Chris is still alive, well and doing well...

[@BaronVonGrumble]

total damage was £41... :)

[@sorkmine]

£41 poorer and one experience richer. Life isnt worth living unless you experience new things.

[@jjammmees]

:0

[@stephenstead7852]

What a bell end. Epic fail

[@tylerrue3108]

I have seen some stupid shit before, but my god man, you've earned the gold medal. Unreal.

[@anbyte1]

Totally agree bro. Dear Lord..

[@Banditmanuk]

Seen this clip posted on various bike forums with many derogatory comments, personally I think its a great bit of comedy and entertainment and is probably what got the Baron noticed to a wider audience.

[@jaegerpenguinch]

+Adam Hallwood ayyyy lmao

[@AussieR1]

I love coming back to this video every now and then. It is still epic.

[@jackk_tvv]

AussieR1 Me Too!

[@theurbanloner8879]

2021 classic

[@AussieR1]

Back again. 2022

[@1888mag]

2023 and still as epic

[@BaronVonGrumble]

i got halfway through it - ive walked it since and if it just pushed past the last bit it got easy from there - shame, should have kept going.

[@FudgeMonkeySmurf]

Always roll forward... I wish I had a video diary of all my f**k ups🤔. Hilarious though!

[@APECK636]

when he said " Im fucked, Ive made a fatal error" I died.

[@steeveedee8478]

Be even funnier if 'Rider Error' message flashed up on Gixer clocks!

[@thomas0086]

I went “YES YOU 🤬 DID”, yes you did indeed” 😂

[@WALTERRIFIC]

I have nightmares about my motorcycle, and this video provided me with the same stomach-sickness feeling. Excellent.

[@Khryker]

I heard about this man from one of you’re moto Mondays

[@DregKiller]

this is painful to watch

[@markholman9775]

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. I’m a 53 year old “stroke survivor” and after stumbling upon 44 teeth I was inspired to buy my first (ever) motorbike - a Fantic Caballero Scrambler 125. I thought I may have bitten off more than I could gobble - but then I found this! Thank you again for your continued inspiration. Good job you had a bloody Double Decker for sustenance!

[@KristianKumpula]

You should have used full power. That's a good idea in any situation and very exciting.

[@aljazpogacnik5445]

clarckson like :P

[@Konstantinos_pap]

aljaz pogacnik POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWER!

[@anythinwithanengine6384]

Maximum power

[@TheG60528XiJinPing]

Speed and power

[@davidpostin2999]

You Tubers and their crazy shenanigans!! If I ever thought of taking my bike along a green lane (K1300s) I now don’t have to because I know it’s a stupid idea. Great watching and the mood music makes it even more stomach churning.

[@jamescannone1425]

If you were Jeremy Clarkson, you would probably have just gave it the beans through the entire track and almost died 27 times

[@potnudles]

Reading your comment just reminded me of Top Gear :( lol

[@jamescannone1425]

I vote the Baron, Mighty Car Mods, and Regular Car Reviews for a whole new sort of Top Gear Show.

[@christiaanaalders972]

JL Cannone Don't forget the Roadkill show on the motor trend channel!

[@jamescannone1425]

:)

[@jackalfox332]

POWWWWWWER! Shouting, shouting, shouting!* FAIL! Blame James May!

[@fordblue5711]

Don't blame ya bud....you never know what's at the end of the road. It coulda been a bunch of smokin hot woman ready to get it on with baronvonpimp but turns out its just a muddy old road. Now we know though. Ya learn something new everyday so keep your head high chap

[@cruzanbum3108]

Ford blue bloody hell don’t think he’s into the other sex that much

[@theyoutubeguy1]

At the end was prop a angry guy in a blacked out range rover.

[@AAARREUUUGHHHH]

@@cruzanbum3108 He was married and had a kid ffs

[@AAARREUUUGHHHH]

Well, I presume he still has it...

[@surg23]

It would be damn funny if you did this on a demo bike and come back to the dealership with mud all over it. When they ask you what happened, just reply, I thought it was a dirtbike.

[@CAL740JJ]

Lol :D

[@pappy-qq3ne]

lol that would be hilarious

[@alusionns]

so hard watching this as a dirtbike owner without forgeting this is a sport bike

[@frogmanjack8790]

surg23 hahaha ha that's really funny I like that

[@RobinHimself]

It's like going cross country running in high heels hahaha

[@ABIKETHING]

I watched this video 10 years ago and again today. Still love it

[@TheMototerrestrial]

Haha.. what music is that? It made the video epic! :P

[@BaronVonGrumble]

I made it in Garage Band!

[@TheMototerrestrial]

***** Sounds pretty good man! Well done!

[@MrSuperkumar1]

Music is epic

[@jjammmees]

Mototerrestrial Alternative rock music.

[@MADdaDJ]

Mototerrestrial so, can we get a video of this song?? :3

[@polarbear111000]

"I've made a mistake. I've made a fatal error." Hilarious. I almost laughed out loud in my office.

[@OhiSr]

6 years ago and still good 10/10

[@my600cc]

Watching this nearly 10 years later is soo funny.

[@cfcfubar]

I’m rewatching because you just bought this bike back and I must say this is a masterpiece of editing. The music is so tense! Incredible.

[@MrAdambinnie]

Swear I rewatch this at least twice a month. It. Never. Gets. Old.

[@Thebosun78]

Ahhhh. Just come back to watch this again, after all those years, never gets old Chris.......Brilliant mate 👍

[@2500gamma]

The Baron does this, so we don't have to - love this vid!!!

[@sickunit2096]

This one is a classic. I’ve had to go back and watch it a few times. Ive found myself on paths/trails like this and felt that same sinking feeling.

[@2WheelTrev]

This was the golden era of motovlogging. I had to go back and rewatch, funny AF.

[@regiondeltas]

Haha, oh man. When I watched this 11 years ago i was only just starting my bike journey. For 10 years now Ive had bikes - done the sports bike thing, but of off roading, adventure etc and this video hits so differently but every bit as hilarious. Ended up on a not that dissimilar lane with my VFR and i was utterly bricking it. Top quality work Baron

[@definitelyfunatparties]

Craigslist be like ''Never dropped, never ridden in the wet'' xD

[@krazyface8488]

LMFAOOOO!!!! I just spent the last 12 minutes cracking up laughing so hard!! And it wasn't because I was laughing at you, but because I've been in those situations where you want to do something, but something in your head tells you not to. Then you commit to doing it, and the second after you start, you're kicking yourself in the ass the whole time, screaming and cursing because curiosity got the best of you. Definitely one of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time!

[@rjo2020]

Agreed! I'm sure a few of us have "been there, done that" in varied forms. For me, it was taking an unknown mountain track in Slovenia on a Tmax in search of a pretty view of the valley below. Once started on the track it was clear that it was a bad idea. Cracked asphalt turned to gravel, which turned to a rutty dirt path mixed with gravel and sand. Too narrow to turn around, and no clear indication where it actually led. When I ended up on a hiking trail that was heading toward a ledge several thousand feet above the valley I finally summoned the strength to turn that bike around. It was either that, or risk cliff diving. I avoid those off road tracks these days. Until now I was almost certain I was the only nut who tried stuff like that. Thanks for the reassurance that I'm not alone.

[@MrSutekii]

In Australia we call this sort of road a "highway"

[@woooster17]

Wow...I’m new(ish) to Barons aka Chris aka Sue Perkins videos... but I heard rumour, nay legend..of this video. And here it is...KZbin gold. Simply brilliant!

[@doughboi007]

Still coming back to this to see more vonTumble

[@portlandrider7966]

Probably one of my all time favorite motovlogs, some seriously funny shit!

[@FRFM00]

***** I watch this at least once a month! Love your vids, from Canada! I've rode a Daytona 675 for years! Thank you UK! You're so funny, love the music choice during the excursion lmaaaao wow!

[@twistedlemoen]

You're a legend.

[@stephenbrouwer2228]

Its the year 2023, and this is still one of my favourites. I have to come back every now and then to still the inner voice telling me to do the same thing.

[@-a0-]

this 12 minute episode of "long way down" is more interesting than the entire last season of motogp

[@houldendub]

5 years later, this is still the pinnacle of motovlogs

[@krazyface8488]

How are there 245 dislikes to this video???? Some people have serious problems!!

[@krazyface8488]

I guess. I loved the video because I have on MANY occasions, done something really stupid, knowing it probably wouldn't end well , but let curiosity get the best of me. That's why I enjoyed the video so much, because I can relate to it. LOL

[@Meekerextreme]

I find people don't really understand the Thumbs up or down buttons. They might be giving the thumbs up for all the wrong reasons, and same for the down. For example someone might like a product so they give the video a Thumbs Up, someone else might hate the product and give it a Thumbs Down when the product is not what you as a viewer are reviewing as a rating. You as a viewer are suppose to be rating the VIDEO. Was it informative? Did it help you? Was it well produced? I don't see an issue with the VIDEO here. It's a little long, but not crazy long. I assume the 331 Thumbs Down are for tossing a sportbike on the ground...LOL Again not what the rating system was meant for you to rate. I wish negatives they required input like "I didn't like this video because it was too long" Or the village idiot would say "I didn't like the video because your momma is fat"...and then let you flag those stupid negatives to be removed. I pay little attention to them myself, as I know people have a hard time grasping the concept of the rating system...but then again I'm sure a lot of people are the stars of the Russian driving videos so what do you expect!!!

[@tonythies1827]

I gave him a thumbs down because I couldn't give him a trophy for dumb fuckery. Thumbs down for 12 minutes of stupidity. Although it does take balls to post a video of your complete ignorance.

[@biggeorgiaspots]

KZbin gold right here. Thank you for this.

[@Antmattroman]

damn its been 4 years since i got into motovlogging. About 4 years ago I met my old next door neighbor with a GSXR 750 and he got me into bikes. Legit, Baron Von Grumble, you are the first motovlogger I have watched. Clap Clap.

[@rackbites]

10 year anniversary ... Sue needs to come back and repeat it on multiple different bikes ... as well as the original Gixxer.

[@Petrolheadish]

Hahaha, this is the most hilarious video you have ever made, Baron. Wonder how you look back on this today.

[@Roger101Watson]

I laughed, I cried, I was left with a cliffhanger. Hollywood could learn from your movie making..

[@AdoreYouInAshXI]

What in God's name possessed you to do this Baron?! ...I sure am glad you did it.

[@chazphot]

Can't believe this gem is over five years old. I love you Baron, don't ever change.

[@honestmaxx81]

This is still my fave baron video, I rewatch it every few months or so

[@auntbetty92]

Can anyone inform me where this green lane is please? the postcode or name public road that joins it would be preferred but any help is appreciated. Thanks.

[@BaronVonGrumble]

Search for "Well" as the village and the lane is called "Frog Lane"

[@auntbetty92]

***** Much appreciated Mr.Baron. Gonna dust off the old gopro and record a ride!

[@englishelectric]

I'm pretty certain it is in a tiny village called Wells, in Hampshire. Right on the Surrey border, near Farnham. It goes past a school.

[@nortondlcl]

You need to revisit with s1000xr ?

[@TheAdamie]

you should take a 1299s green laning, it would get you a ton of subscribers

[@nichisjesus]

About 6 years ago, before I had ever even touched a motorcycle, I saw a particular one (either a harley softail or a honda rebel, I couldn't tell the diff at the time) on the road and was hooked, obsessed with obtaining my own bike. A few months later, after becoming aware that there are different types, categories, genres of motorcycles, I became really curious as to how possible it was to take something like a sports bike off-road. I quickly came across this video, which had not been up for long, posted by some British dude with a cool name (I did not yet know that the Brits were much more into bikes than us Americans). I was enthralled by the video and the genuine adventurous spirit that was animated in this video. In a way, this video portrays the adventurous spirit of motorcycling more than any legit off road video. Anyway, I spent the next year watching everything that The Baron put up, simultaneously failing all of my college classes because NOTHING mattered anymore except motorcycles. I spent all the time I should have been spending on studying and homework by scavenging the web for information on bikes in general. How they work, how it is to ride them, how to perform maintenance on them generally, the pitfalls of the various types, and the reputations of each brand. I became as informed as I possible could without ever having touched a bike. Throughout all this I started out wanting a Harley Blackline, because it most closely (or obviously?) resembled the bike that had given me the itch on that fateful day. I then got a chance to sit on one and realized it was not only ungodly expensive, but ENORMOUS and effectively unrideable for someone of my size and experience level. Around this time, the Ninja 300 and CBR250 came out, and I spent considerable time looking at them both, thinking that one of these might be the bike for me. They were both so good, how could they not be? But then I watched a video from Jake the Garden Snake and from his advice, garnered that sport bikes, even in their smaller CC forms, are still fairly specialized and thus restricted, and somehow from there I ended up looking at the also recently released Suzuki TU250 X, affectionately called the "TUX." I also looked at the Savage 650 by proxy, but son dropped the idea after sitting on one. The TUX was THE ONE. It was the bike for me. It was set in STONE. It was cheap, looked ok, fun enough to ride supposedly, and a good jack of all trades. My GF and I took our MSF course, and got our licenses, and I started saving up the cash for a new TUX. And then, one lonely night while looking around on craigslist just entertaining the idea of getting a used bike, I came across a particular bike I had seen outside of an office months before getting my license, but had written off because it was even smaller than the TUX and from some lesser known Taiwanese brand, SYM, whoever that is... It looked so cool still though... Almost a year went by, and I had moved out and had some dough in my pocket. Not enough for a TUX, but enough to lock myself into a downpayment maybe... And then, in another lonely, procrastinating search on Craigslist, I stumbled across the same SYM Wolf. I felt something for it that I couldn't deny. I called up the seller just to chat, and found out that it was actually THE very bike I had seen in person outside of an office forever ago. I felt a connection. The TUX was a great bike, but it could wait. I met up with the lady that owned this awesome little SYM Wolf 150, and we called it a deal. A week later I had a helmet and I took my first venture ever out onto the road on a motorcycle. After a few laps up and down my road, I ended up venturing further and further from home. Four hours later, I was 50 some-odd miles from home, on a bad ass FM road that I previously didn't know existed, looking out from a bridge over a river, smiling with pure joy that I had literally achieved my dream. For the first time in my life, I had achieved a dream, no if's and's or but's. Fast forward 4 years, and I still have that SYM Wolf, plus a 30 year old Honda 450 twin, an even older project bike, and I'm saving up for a 4th bike - this time something more dual sporty. I've gone on several giant trips on each of my 2 main bikes, and motorcycling has consumed every aspect of my life, every fiber of my being. Bikes fucking rule, and if you say otherwise... then hey man, to each his own. Something reminded me of this video recently, and I realized that it now represents a very, very early milestone in what has now become a lifestyle for me, and maybe it's the margarita talking, but I just felt like sharing. Peace brothas and sistas.

[@Ex250Rider]

This video reminds me of when I took my Ninja 250 off roading. Got it all on video, but it was a hell of an experience. Nowhere near as much mud where I was riding, but lots and lots of loose gravel and dirt. I did eventually get to a stunning part of the island that I have never seen before. And at 6:15 when you mentioned that alone feeling, I was on the most remote road I had ever been on, I know the feels. Only saw one other person on my way out.

[@MrCombuster]

Im gonna fucking take my cbr 250 offroading after this. stock tires.

[@BurntOnBothEnds]

As far as sportbikes go, the CBR250R is (relatively) excellent.

[@MrCombuster]

ikr :D

[@IllAdvisedHooligan]

The things you do to entertain us fellow motovloggers

[@Vandragorax]

OMG this is hilarious hahah xD What WERE you thinking? I hope the ego isn't too bruised after this and the bike could be cleaned up lol

[@gazobee]

This still makes me chuckle today. What were you thinking! On the plus side I had a double Double Decker today!

[@allaboutkalergi5012]

Cheers for the great video Chris. I was going to buy one, but now realize it wasn't the great all-rounder I'd hoped for. Oh well...

[@jamesdean8864]

Still makes me laugh, this video got me hooked to BVG all those years ago and still KZbin recommends me to watch this

[@Stephven69]

never thought i would ever see a GSXR off roading XD great video

[@SnewJ]

Lmaooo this is great man! #TeamGSXR

[@mohawk1778]

Back to this video in 2024 just to remember this amazing piece of KZbin history. 😂

[@raymondthomas1422]

I can't understand the thinking behind this, you basically ruined your bike for no good reason.

[@mattie_world]

On the contary, about 20% of his subscribers probably subbed from this video

[@VengeanceCore]

Raymond Thomas ye this is 1 of them things that sound fun, and then it all end up going tits up.

[@Veloxzr]

Raymond Thomas I don't know about you but I absolutely enjoyed watching it, so it definitely wasn't for no reason

[@hemo1001]

Raymond Thomas It's not only him, few people sometimes get this stupid idea of offroading with a sports bike or sports car, i did the same with my Vrod Muscle and my Mustang, not because i'm rich as i barely could offer it used. but cause i think it will be a good experience which is definitely NOT!

[@Candesce]

Raymond Thomas Don't know if I'd say "ruined". Baron von Grumble can clearly afford to fix his bikes.

[@Loger01]

I think this is my 3rd time watching this video.. Still great

[@MarinaDiamandis4Ever]

Me to

[@SKBKER]

Not the smartest Baron but funny as hell . He works hard for his money so he can do what he likes with it but I don't feel he knows how vulnerable a road bike is off road and to risk ruining a lovely bike...well I wouldn't . Did we get to see a bit of the Baron face too ?!!! .

[@r6simonelf]

Words fail me. It’s like a low-rent “Apocalypse Now”, if Martin Sheen had chosen a milk-float instead of a patrol boat. One man’s journey into the green hell and descent into madness. I was half expecting Marlon Brando to appear with a flagon of scrumpy, “Arr boy, the horror!” Brilliant fuckwittery.

[@wpanik]

Hello Baron! Been watching your channel for about a year now and finally decided to comment! I've been watching all of 44 Teeth from the beginning and had never seen this video until you referenced it in the face reveal interview. This is properly hysterical! I'm sure it was a rather miserable day at the time… Very well done with the music! That's some true talent to just compose all of that out of nothing. Please keep up the great content! Watching it all has been a blast.

[@gangatalishis]

lol that music tho

[@philno]

i dont want to be the person quoting clarkson... but POWWAH

[@mtvl3503]

When I saw this video, I immediately thought…I have to subscribe this absolutely crazy guy!!

[@CNCycle]

Watch all of his. They're nearly all good.

[@MegaloGater]

video is old, i know, my first experience in the off-roads was on a muddy track in poland, very very similar to yours. Only was my bike a bit more suited to that environment - Honda Transalp 1996 with Michelin Anakee 3 Tires. Still was excited before and felt exactly like you when i entered the mud. Dropped it twice, almost snapped my ankle once (had the wrong boots), but when i was back home, i was so hooked! Following years i had different tires and more experience and it really grew on me :DD Thanks for the video - even if it is already old - it gave me lots of giggles and nostalgia :D

[@MegaloGater]

Also, the music is just perfect! Very nice :) almost made me re-feel the adrenaline rush that i had :D

[@StrategyDirect]

Im new to your channel - and I know this is an old post, but holy crap I fell off my chair pissing my self... Thanks needed that...

"OK, so this isn't fun" If not, then why am i laughing! :D

[@neilmcgee2526]

Chris Harris mentioned this video on his podcast. Loved it....what happened to the bike?

[@MrHappygolfer]

I've been watching you mostly on 44 Teeth, but stumbled on this. I've been there; in spirit anyway. Yup, dumb, but wasn't it exciting! When you turned around I was sooo disappointed! Great vidography, and I really liked the "found this video on a dead motorcyclist" background music.

[@polarbear111000]

Oh, man, when I saw that big pool of water coming up, I thought, "Shit, I hope he doesn't dump it in that...." Classic. Baron I've subscribed to your channel, and I know you are starting to have second thoughts about continuing on with your silly version of douchebaggery, but I have to say, the world would be a much more boring place without this kind of nonsense. Soldier on...................................

[@BattleDadPrime]

It's like going out in shitty weather. No such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes. So stick some knobblies on there! :)

[@duncanblanchard334]

I know it’s a long time ago but this is priceless, when you shout for help it just cracks me up. I think you might have re edited this as I don’t recall the jaws type music. One of your best but worst if you see what I mean, Baron at his best😁😁😁

could have been worse!! at least no one saw you! that would have been really shameful! oh wait 668 thousand people saw. what a wally!

[@Bigsmokeandthebandit]

Still by far the best video on KZbin and just as funny watching it second time around after 2 years! :-)

[@greatkingrat]

That is mental! I see that there is an off road damage update so I'll watch that madness next. Just watched you ditch it in the water at 12:06. Omg I felt that.

[@diesel9583]

that was great ! thanks, I laughed out loud! thanks for doing what I have planned to do many times. You have made me see the light ! I won’t do it ! I have over a 100,000 miles of riding experience and enjoyed watching your disastrous adventure. Thank you many times over ! cheers

[@rossw46uk]
