Utah adventure ride - Part III - One week with the Kove 450

Part III:
After a great night camping we had some breakfast and began loading up the bikes. Ready to head out I found that my lithium ion battery had finally died. It was failing the day before and it was a worry no doubt. We tried jump starting it with some nearby barbed wire lol. It did work, but not really. Gary was able to get signal and call one of his guys at GPX command and run down a battery to the nearest road. Scott and Andy went down the mountain to meet up with him. It was kind of a bummer and potential show stopper, but we had some great fellowship while waiting. We soon got on our way with nothing but amazing scenery ahead for the rest of the day!

The “soundtrack” from the Kove is intoxicating. Thanks for sharing!

[@LCARSADV]

Yw I’m glad you enjoyed it! Ride on!

[@rustynail9007]

The kove is pretty impressive. Ive heard good things. The price point is definitely a nice selling point. The trails look amazing

[@LCARSADV]

Yeah it seems like the working man's adv do all bike for sure. Utah is amazing!

[@michaeldavison430]

Was hoping to see you at the spring or fall family fun rides in Hancock and pick your brain on the GPX/Kove bikes. Maybe next year

[@LCARSADV]

I didn't do the family fun ride, but I was at the Quarry Run. Feel free to shoot any questions!

[@inrptn]

That was absolutely spectacular! I gotta get up there. Planning to do the AZBDR in May and hopefully hit Utah in Sept! All on the Kove 450, most likely.

[@LCARSADV]

Yeah it was! I bet that AZBDR is going to be a blast! I haven't done a BDR yet but I would like to do them all.

[@IndianRiderZRX]

That’s amazing. Which part of Utah is this ? Looks totally green and different from the Moab area I’ve been to. Can you share the general route area please. Thanks.

[@LCARSADV]

Yeah it was! The route is really Salt Lake city and take the Wasatch mountain range south. There are so many trails! We bushwhacked a lot but we were headed towards Beaver as a base camp. I'll probably do a video at some point and share a general route.

[@TheKokanut]

Nice videos but do you go into the thoughts in the Kove more specifically?

[@LCARSADV]

Yeah I have a few review videos out there as well

[@russpaton8877]

Oh some details on what happened with the battery or your thoughts when you get a chance would be great. I have found mine to be good but did get the battery symbol pop up for a short but after a start recently

[@LCARSADV]

We later found out it was a bad rectifier. It happens sometimes, but we got through it!

[@russpaton8877]

OK I have an aux voltmeter on mine so will watch for signs

[@jean-patktm9243]

Please, what are the differences between the two KOVEs in your video? Question from France... Merci

[@LCARSADV]

I don't know every single difference off hand, but the major differences from what I know are the carbon tower, the roll chart, added water tank, different ecu tuning. You lose the LCD screen. I wouldn't buy it unless I was racing the DAKAR or something.
