How I pack the Mosko Moto R80 for ADVenture

[@russ9534]

I'm 68 now and I take a cot with me. It's turned into a must or it's just a miserable night. There's plenty of super light weight choices, depending on how much you want to spend. Yeah, I've used pads, air mattresses and even fir tree bedding. Still, I don't go without my cot anymore. I've bow hunted all my life so I already have everything I need for a minimalistic trip. Ride safe!

[@spencer9841]

Very thorough! Great work on this vid.

[@kiwiadventurer]

Well explained and videoed, reflecting experience and common sense. A good watch thanks for sharing.

[@IslandADV]

The right side water bag with the straw is my favorite part of this rig. Hydration is so key and its so easy to neglect water intake on the ride. You know you wish you drank more water when your muscles are seizing up in the sleep bag at night. Great system Mason. As always, you've covered every angle.

[@ryanmalone2681]

Beat best review of what can be packed for moto-camping in this rig on the entire internet. Loads of reviews and talk, but not a lot of showing the packing setup so I can determine whether my packing setup and gear can be adopted. Thank you.

[@brianwest1829]

I'm moto-camping vicariously by watching videos. The Punxsutawney mosquito saw his shadow the other day which means three more months of summer for us here in the southeastern US. Can't wait for cooler, less humid temps. Have fun and be safe.

[@ryandickinson2091]

Nice to see the see thru panels on the bags as well. Very well put together!

[@Ron_C]

Experience=a fined tuned system. Your vids always make me go through the gear I have..lol...and I have a lot! Ride safe!

[@masonsadv]

I can spend most of the winter on packouts ;)

[@pinkiewerewolf]

I’m a gear nut, I could watch these videos every day. A couple of years ago I bought two MSR tents because of your recommendation.

[@maxw576]

I was searching for Mosko Moto Reckless 80 reviews and was lead here. This is one of the best packing videos I've seen. Being new to moto camping I think I'll use a lot of your ideas. Limiting myself to two bags of clothes will be a challenge! Thanks.

[@george1984]

Great setup. I will keep headlight in tank bag.

[@ssmith278]

I bookmarked this video as I am just starting adventure riding and motocamping. I like the way you have this so organized. Excellent video.

[@kevinelliott4596]

I,m going out eastside of Canada this coming summer for a 13 day tour. I think that this was helpful. Thank you.

[@hiltonhunter1]

Well done mate. Short, sharp and to the point. The Mosko Moto seems like a winner and plan to buy it for my Simpson desert crossing in Aus.

[@magna-mogg6598]

Thanks for your input, I will be using your awesome insight.

[@onanysundrymule3144]

Awesome Sir. I'm impressed by the innovative head cam configuration. Kind regards..

[@paulkoss6401]

Great seeing how you organized your R80! I recently bought a set and will be putting it to use shortly on AZ BDR and was looking for ideas on packing. Thanks so much for the video!

[@tagrach69hope]

Great informative video thanks. That's me decided which storage system I'm buying for my travels 😊

[@SeasonalTherapy]

Good break down 👍 always good to see other peoples set up.

[@andronuss]

Great run down the fun of finding things in stock slowly building a set up

[@ianferrier235]

Very helpful Mason, l love the freeze dried foods, wife and I did a overnight camp on the bikes.Learned a lot from that trip. Hopefully we get better at it lol.Thanks Mason

[@MisterPrecision13]

Thank you for the informative video. Your set up is very well thought out and arranged with alot of common sense. Just purchased a 2022 Tenere 700 and is getting its suspension and bits fitted. You have given me some great ideas and have earned my sub to your channel. Cheers from Australia...

[@cosamuel7182]

Nice breakdown. Thanks for going through everything in such detail. Nice to get ideas and see what is working for someone else

[@dirtpony]

Love seeing how you organized your R80! I recently bought a set and will be putting it to use shortly and was looking for ideas on packing.

[@mal-wx6tu]

A great setup, Mason. all that you need, and still a light load for the bike all up, it's all about being sharp about your choices, online or in the camping store.

[@paulbecker9880]

Thanks for the breakdown! Great insight.

[@dougschneider5948]

Good job.

[@advphilnb]

Great advice and review of your system. Tried and tested speaks volume. I believe we all value your opinions. Thanks Mason, and keep well!

[@jose.escuderow]

great video! cheers from Bolivia!

[@motorclaw]

I just came across your channel. This was a very helpful vid. Thank you!

[@masonsadv]

Awesome! Cheers :)

[@pinkiewerewolf]

I finally ordered the reckless 80 Revolver and the Nomax tank bag. You and Steve at Big Bike Adventures sold me on the system. Took advantage of Mosko Moto’s Black Friday Preorder special. I’ve been running the Giant Loop Great Basin horseshoe set up but the modular set up and build quality of the R 80 R looks to be more versatile in use, and more durable. March 2022 ETA

[@masonsadv]

Nice Pinkie! That's an amazing sale price for sure. I was able to pass this one by but Shooter placed an order too ;) More on that later. Cheers!

[@pinkiewerewolf]

@@masonsadv Nice! Those will look and work great on Shooter’s Tiger.

[@backcountry4life]

Awesome tutorial! You ride tubeless? I have the same Mosko bags but I carry extra tubes on my BDR rides since my tires aren't tubeless. Sucks because I have to make room for those. Takes up a good chunk of space in bottom of one of my side bags. I have a pump that takes up the space under my seat.

[@tommcbeain7789]

Great video! Thanks for the info

[@anneli1735]

While looking for a Mosko Moto R80 just stumbled over your vid ☺️ That’s a pretty perfect setup in my eyes now going down to the essentials making a trip fun 😉 as well having experiences of about 35 years enjoying weight limited hobbies like small boats, hiking and now biking on a tiny yamaha crypton I’ll need that new gear for 😎 prefer that easy access and well organizing system (this for this and that for that) going blind through your stuff when anything needed especially under pressure!

[@rudyweber1573]

Can you tell something about your bike ? Looks awesome

[@JGKohlenberg]

Nice video! I just changed to the R80 bag setup from hard shell and your packing tips will help me figure out my setup 👍

[@masonsadv]

Glad it was helpful!

[@monument4865]

Awsome champ, thanks for sharing, love your work

[@masonsadv]

Cheers Carlo!

[@argentum_on_glass]

look out for the solar battery powered tent light called "LUCY" can be charged during the ride and lasts a week easy... for few dark hours...

[@2010ChargerRT]

Love the gear review videos but can’t wait to see some riding videos again soon

[@TheZakkmylde]

Hey man great video. Good job. You mentioned Ottawa I’m in Cambridge just wondering where you got a lot of this gear? Camp things. Tools and stove ect ? Sail Store near me is ok but not sure they have all These goddess

[@bobbysands5385]

Great video. Thank you!

[@KLRmurdercycle]

Cool. My packing is organized basically the same. Slightly less at 51L entirely. I do wear a pack for jacket, and pitstop snacks. Tenting stuff is also first out then everything goes in the tent. I have the same amount of clothes. I should carry a first aid, if not for me, maybe someone else. Hunting scentlock base layers can go many days without letting everyone know you haven't washed in a while🤣 Also leggings while I wear knee/shin guards are a must. Wow Eagle Creek makes a whole whack of organizational pouches/bags👌

[@DirtChimps]

Nice work. New to your channel. Fellow KZbinr who loves big knobby bikes. Subscribed!

[@marcclarke01]

Thanks!

[@OutsiderOG]

awesome video, love how well thought out this system is! I just bought an MSR elixir 2, what size Liter compression sack did you get?

[@MarcasAndrews]

Super helpful!🙏🏼

[@chrisunderhill8853]

awesome break down, thanks so much this set up really could be used in so many applications. not just on a bike can be in your suv i mean its so complete and perfect thanks again! still in the process of getting my new klr set up cant wait to go on some long rides.

[@AT2021Rocker]

Really nice set up! Looks like it will work on the Africa Twin I plan to buy next year.

[@begbie]

great video man thanks

[@BikerBytes]

Great video Mason! Thinking of getting this setup for the DR. Cheers.

[@masonsadv]

I think you will be happy with it. Great gear👍Cheers!

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

This is gold brother, thanks!

[@masonsadv]

Glad to help! Cheers!

[@bobsmyth6706]

Really good review and good advice. Cheers

[@wesleydean1358]

What product did you use for your water hose insulation? Great video ...Thanks

[@wesleydean1358]

Great

[@trailsandtires1457]

Great looking setup, well organized and thought out! I pack slightly lighter then you but similar. I am camping off a KTM450EXC so I need to keep weight down. Unfortunately that means I don't get some of the creature comforts! I am due for a new sleeping bag though so I will be checking out that one you have! My tent is Nature hike and so far I have been pretty happy with it so I am definitely willing to give them a shot with other products.

[@masonsadv]

It worked well on my week away and the price is right 👍 amzn.to/2Yu0WVf

[@arsyesis]

Thank you for vidéo. Total weight ?

[@8andsk835]

Just bought the therma cell after watching your video. Great tip! Also where did u get the bags that you put your clothes in?

[@hamermohareb6826]

Still have a lot to learn....☺️👌

[@ScratchBabble]

Man that's so well thought out. I have to ask, what is your watch? What do you use when you travel?

[@masonsadv]

Hey Jim. I'm a big G-Shock guy. They seem to be the only watch that will stand up to the abuse I put them through, lol. The one I take on all the trips is the Rangeman triple sensor. Compass, Altimeter and Barometer. amzn.to/38O1qrm

[@rickvogt1236]

Good content!

[@theatticdesign]

Hi Masons, great video, just wondering how you have found the tarp compared to say more expensive brands such as hilleberg...are the klymit totally waterproof? How do you support it when there are no trees? Thanks for any tips in advance.

[@abitofaviation]

Great review! Thank you!

[@MotoPavilion]

Nice video. I just tried to set up my stuff but it didn’t work well. Last year I used cheap panniers and 40l dry bag on top. I set all the gear exactly the same way as last year but it didn’t fit inside Reckless 80. I was so surprised and disappointed. Now I have to rethink again what should I bring with me. Do you have any advice what is the easiest way to slide the bags into the sleeves.

[@hewi6460]

Could the reckless 40's beaver tail hold the SW motech 40L bag?I feel the reckless 80 may be too much bag!

[@gregoryhogeweide4121]

Afternoon, know this is an old video, went through your gear page on Amazon but I didn't see the water bladder system you show in the video. Was looking at doing the same thing?

[@masonsadv]

My water bladder is a MSR Dromedary 2 ltr bag and MSR also sells the drinking tube. You can find them at most camping stores. Cheers!

[@charliem5332]

Dang mesquites! How are the windows holding up on your 80 side bags. Mine wore through while riding with cooking gear. Only weak parts of Mosko for me.

[@toddfaulkner7745]

Mason, thanks for another great video. Could you say how much your kit weighs, including the Revolver setup? Thanks!

[@mntbighker]

I was about to ask the same question. I'm starting to out a Husq 701 and debating between the 80 and the 40 Mosko.

[@rossstanford9182]

Where do you get the food bags for and would this bike set up woion a DR 200s

[@backcountry4life]

Where do you carry your tool roll?

[@XtremeCoke]

Nice one Mason. A question regards the shape of the rackless soft bags in general: Do you think R80 tubular/holster design has any advantages vs Kriega OS rectangular vs Enduristan Blizzard sort of rectangular shape for orginising stuff? i know soft bags all give more or less but just thinking how effective can you pack&stuff things up without fine tuning some item has to go to a certain location or need to think about the sequence how things goes back into the dry bags. Thanks

[@BlackThor15]

Great informative video, well done and thanks for sharing it!! 👍👍 PS. Can you also share the content of you tool roll? Thanks!

[@masonsadv]

Sure thing! Here is an older video and some things have changed slightly but still an overview kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWmaiXqsrJZ6hK8

[@BlackThor15]

@@masonsadv great, thank you!!

[@mynomadadventure]

Wondering how much the bag system and all the camping gear weighs? Thanks.

[@masonsadv]

The Mosko Moto R80 loaded with everything here, including stove fuel and water weighs in at 58 lbs

[@mynomadadventure]

@@masonsadv Thanks! That’s very helpful.

[@mikemills5144]

I usually bring way too much stuff but I have gotten better. First I need better luggage, then downsize the amount of clothes I bring. Oh I usually have a rope, can use it to hang clothes or towels or pull a bike ;)

[@masonsadv]

Yeah, I have a length of rope in the tool bag for the same reasons. Also works well for hanging our food in bear country ;)

[@georgesolomon5696]

Can a Backcountry Duffle 30, 40, or 50L be used in place of the stinger 22L? Thanks

[@ArcticJeff]

Nice set up Mason. You can tell there's been much trial and error and thought put into how you pack for trips. Looks very efficient. Question: the larger 'buttons' on the license plate bolts, is that so you can clip straps, etc to them? p.s. If you ever travel around the Kingston, ON area, let me know. I will buy you guys a coffee.

[@masonsadv]

The license plate bolts are led plate lights. Keeps me legal beagle ;)

[@ArcticJeff]

@@masonsadv very cool and handy for those that go with aftermarket tail tidy's.

[@stevebrinkert8339]

☕️ Good morning. Great setup ! Transferable from one bike to another, is there plans for a new bike?😏

[@masonsadv]

No plans yet Steve ;) Having too much fun on the KLR!

[@Tophershawn_]

Curious, what soap do you us to wash your clothes?

[@JosephWolf]

Looking for the dry bag with the viewing window. Didn't see it in your links.

[@KLRmurdercycle]

I think those are part of the MoskoMoto system.

[@masonsadv]

They come with the R80 system but are available for order separately too. Maybe under R80 leg bags??

[@ryanmalone2681]

What about shoes? I like to have something to wear, other than my MX boots, and I like to go into the water and streams and like to use water shoes. You don’t bring any shoes, sandals, or anything else?

[@jnel57]

I would like to know more about your hydration system. I know it is a mosko 4L bag and a MSR 2L bag. But which model of MSR and what hose length and which hose cover ?

[@masonsadv]

I run the MSR Dromedary Bag V2 in my leg holster on the R80 and MSR also sells a hose attachment so I use that at the length is comes with. The 4 ltr bag is just for around camp or if we expect to be super remote. The hose cover is just a generic Water Bladder Tube Cover and I'm sorry but I don't remember where I got it. Possibly amazon.

[@paulmost8652]

How do you find your water bladder? Is it the MSR? Where did you get the square packs for your closes? I use zip lock bags But I like what your using.

[@masonsadv]

Yes I use the MSR bladder. Super tough material! and the packing cubes are like these amzn.to/3DSPAdG

[@garyo4456]

I like the idea and cost of zip lock bags!!

[@joehunt4903]

Any suggestions for rain gear?

[@masonsadv]

Hey Joe. Im a huge fan of layering my gear so i have Alpinestars gortex boots and klim gortex pants. They cover all weather types and then i match my mesh jacket with whatever the weather may be. For rain i wear a gortex shell over my mesh. Any quality gortex works but i am running the Klim stowaway pro this year.

[@bartthomas2895]

Do you wear a ventilated jkt and pants and have a shell for underneath or a rain suit?

[@masonsadv]

My pants are gortex and I have a mesh jacket. I wear underarmor heat gear underneath my gear and have a gortex jacket for the rain or around camp.

[@tomberaro2900]

Whats the farthest you've ridden the klr to go camping?

[@masonsadv]

Our trips are usually in the 2500 KM range but The off road sections slow us up. The longest day for me on the klr has been the ride back around from Manitoulin Island. 660 kms roughly and I have done that run several times now. Long day ;)

[@FriesyRider]

Great content. Camera work can be improved with a bit less shaking

[@masonsadv]

Thanks for watching :)

[@mntbighker]

Anybody bothered by the fact the Mosko stuff is made in Vietnam or China? Giant Loop is US made but probably not as well designed. Kriega is German I think. The new Moska knobula looks like an awesome feature addition.

[@charlesmcgowen7238]

How much does all of this weigh, loaded?

[@masonsadv]

The R80 on the back, loaded with everything here, weighs 58 lbs. Including stove fuel, food and water
