@@TheDirtyyoungman1 the damage done by TQ is more myth than reality. Before GWoT, we were trained to rarely use the TQ because of the perceived injuries it would cause, since then, it's been proven that it causes far less damage than bleeding out does and is about on par with compression bandages. You will want to have more than a few rolls of gauze for packing wounds to apply sufficient psi to stop an internal bleeding injury. QuickClot gauze is far superior to the old granuals and doesn't cause the thermal damage the old stuff does. Look for the better gauze that has the X-ray detectable threads so it doesn't get missed... I like the CAT tq's for ease of use, durability and effectiveness. Yeah they're @$30 but I've seen the lesser and chicom counterfeits fail under use. Get legit first aid and don't be cheap. What's you life worth.

I came over pulled the alt cover and jb welded his cover and its still holding over 2k miles and 8 months later! although i did have to hammer the edges closer to sealing the cover, sanding the entire area of the whole and 1/4" out, and jb weld with setup of over 12 hours.

I agree that the Seat Concepts reskin is a great upgrade. From my decades worth of touring experience the dished seat option from Corbin probably would have been a better bet but I couldn't justify the price tag for a negligibly better (on paper) seating option given that the DRZ's stock seat was good for me up to about mile 400 of +700 mile days. The 15 year old stock foam that was weathered and crumbling on my DRZ just was no longer up to the task during my last long tour. Honestly, IMHO the worst part of the stock seat is the rearward can't when sitting close to the tank. Even cutting the hump out from the front portion of the seat near the tank so that there's more of a forward cant into the tank when the bike is unloaded made the stock seat so much more comfortable.

Very nice run down. If there was only ONE thing I would say to add to your "survival gear"... it would be a water filtration system. I use a Gravity Works system from Platypus that will clean about 2L of water a minute with no pumping... or can be used as a simple filter straw. Tablets/Powder/chemical water cleaning is slow (average 30 minutes before you can drink it), and tastes like yuck yuck. Rule of 3s... 3 minutes without air.. 3 hours in harsh conditions (too hot, too cold)... 3 days without water.. 3 weeks without food.
@eveRide
@eveRide 9 жыл бұрын
I SOOOO agree! I've seen those life straws and those things are super light and would fit nicely into the kit. Man your rule of threes sounds like... brutal! Those are the limits before death, right?
@TWiGsADV707
@TWiGsADV707 9 жыл бұрын
Yeah... the Rule of 3s is our average limits before death. We are tender beasts in a harsh world, but we can control our destiny like none other. The great thing about the Gravity Works kit is you can take as much or as little of the kit as you may need or want for the trip. Just carry the filter and short tube to use as a filter straw (works better than the life straw stand alones) ... or take along the dirty and clean water bags with you for cleaning more water, faster. When my family hikes and camps, we will hang and use the system like a camp sink. And not having to pump one little squirt of water at a time beats those pump filters any day. Not "cheap".. but WELL worth it, especially when you find out your friends didnt pack enough water like ya told em too. ;P www.amazon.com/Platypus-6951-2L-GravityWorks-Filter/dp/B00A9A2HKM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1423171854&sr=8-1

May I recommend a tourniquet and SAM splint? Perhaps an Israeli Gauze? I know that bumps and bruises are common but, a traumatic bleed will ruin you day quickly. A SAM splint for those fractured tib/fibs or radi/ulna. If a CAT TQ is too large, go for the RATS. We can't always carry an entire "jump bag" but, as an EMT... I recommend these few items.

Very nice presentation. The one thing I'd add to your med kit is a tourniquet, and if you don't already have it, you should take a class to learn how to use it. It's the difference between life and death if you are ever injured in way that results in significant bleeding. Plus, they're small and light. Dark Angel Medical has a good selection.

Id suggest putting a kick starter on that bike!!! If you are going out alone its an absolute MUST have on your bike. All models the "E' "S" "SM" can all have a kick starter installed.Batteries can fail, especially the stock drz battery. To that the obvious answer would the the tried and true "bump start" right?? one would hope, but I find personally most of the instances where my bike stalls out, the bike is in a position where it would be very difficult to bump start it if your battery or starter were to crap out on you. I still carry jumper cables when I ride (always packed with the essentials). they are light and easy to install. I kick start my bike all the time for fun and to lighten the load on the battery. Its simple insurance, cheap parts , easy to install. although depending what oversize tank you use, you might have some clearance issues but that can be solved with a shorter kick starter.

See my previous post for how to run without the headlight. I ran my 12V adapter direct from the battery so that I can use it without the key in the ignition. Handy for charging things overnight. Be sure to use an inline fuse or tap in after the main electrical fuse.

sew or glue a first aid patch on your kit if you want people to be able to find it. Is that plug like a little power inverter??? I am planning an inverter install for my car. I never thought about slapping one on a moto. Smart man packing multiple ways to get a fire going. It's always wise to carry FIRE WATER FOOD SHELTER, or the means and skill to manifest them yourself. Good call on the saw, I keep a folding saw close by along with a leatherman and flashlight. I always carry a knife of some size depending on where I am and what I'm doing. My current camp/wilderness knife is Becker BK9 along with its sidekick skeleton knife. Good times. Early on you mentioned riding alone and that is something that I think about too. If your out there alone and happens you're going to have to take care of it alone. Which reminds me that we should carry a few means of signaling for rescue. A mirror is an easy one. Maybe a satellite phone or emergency beacon. Safety is always important. Out in the bush a little cut can get infected which can eventually kill you via blood poisoning. My main concern is always people.I might be a little over precautious but I've heard the stories, and out in the woods all alone a predatory person(s) might see me as an easy target. You already made a very smart move - you blasted a big poker to your gas tank, within arms reach and for all to see. Somebody scoping you out might see that a decide to move on Now I am curious to hear the story about the crazy man in the desert. I love a good story about scary people

Forget the pump and use co2 cartridges. Weld a socket attachment to your tire irons and your tire irons will double for a socket handle. Did it for years back in the day in Mexico and Southern CA.

Does anyone know where to get an extended shift lever for the drz? I called chaparral, Cycle gear and 2 dealers locally. No luck at all. I have a 2019 drz and a size 13 boot. I can’t use my motocross boots at all.

the ram mount is really expensive. i got a china version of it which holds as good as the ram mount (offroad and crash approved by me). you can connect it with the battery and USB charge your phone with it (idk if the ram mount can do this too so i mentioned it). i will post the amazon link below this comment. its about 20€ so probably around 25$

Nice video. Have you considered putting a personal locator beacon in your first aid kit? It looks like your first aid bag is very easily accessible. Might be the perfect place for a PLB.

My favorite mod I performed on my bike is a little red button (Radio Shack, 2.99) mounted on the fairing. It's wired to my old school garage door opener velcro'd under the seat. Gets me in touch with my inner James Bond. People always ask me," Is that a nitrous button?". I tell 'em it's a rocket launcher.

I think you should add a tourniquet to your first aid kit. If possible a SAM splint and a compression bandage like the Israeli bandage (can also be used as a sling) would very handy with the types of injuries you are likely to sustain on a motorcycle. All 3 of these would be a little bigger than a soda can.

Nice mods. You should buy all that kit, package it, and sell it as a job lot to DRZ riders. Lots of DRZs here in New Zealand but prices here are just way too much.

Hey! coming through this video i got a ton of idea's for my DRZ but i had a question about the Adapter you used to power all your goodies. i can buy the parts easily enough but i was wondering if you made a separate Battery holder and used that for JUST the adapter or if you just ran it into the bikes normal battery that you happen to be using the TMS battery for.

the first thing you have to do to throw all these irons and spare parts you carry on you and especially the knife,you have to give us explanations because you carry the mobile phone as if it is a road machine while you are on uneven ground in what you need,it must light on the motorcycle as you have to lose some pounds to get better and faster

the ram x mount is a great product. i use it every day. the one thing i noticed though, is when it gets wet, the rubber "fingers" come lose. i suggest putting super glue inside the slots to keep them on.

+Kevin Powers (Dracko8000) That's a great tip! Recently, with a lot of the riding I do, my X grip started to get a little less grippy. I replaced it with a hard-to-find spring RAM and it's sooooo solid now! The X Grip is excellent for roads and most trails, but on some of the tracks it was better just to stuff my phone in my pocket. It fell out just too many times :\

Excellent video... Oh the Black Widow! Your load out is thought out and well stocked. Great example for all... Prior Proper Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance... Which, I suppose, is the Marine Corps way of saying the Boy Scout motto of Always be prepared. You won't need all of those all the time but Murphy dictates that when you don't have it... You will need it. that makes me feel under prepared now... Sheesh. Time to rectify... :-)
