Lyndon has more to take care of his bike than himself. At least he got himself some bandaids 😅

[@adventesia245]

everyone, for 5 years: show us your toolbag Lyndon Poskitt: this is my toolbag®, you can buy it. *open and closes*

[@folxam]

I got a Enduristan tool roll because of you, and I had my eyes on the 4H tank bag as well. Gonna get it! Tell Enduristan that your exposure works :)

[@stefanvanvuuren3931]

The timing of releasing this video Lyndon was perfect! I'm leaving on a 8500km trip through Northern Western South Africa, all of Namibia and Botswana on Saturday. Thank you for sharing your kit. P.S. thanks for that Enduristan Tornado 2M bag mate.

Enjoy your trip! If you're not already on Wild dogs forum I suggest you join www.wilddog.za.net/forum/index.php

[@MichaelAbramo]

Man, I've been spending so much time and effort racing enduro that my XR650L has been sitting for a year and half and I haven't done any moto-camping trips since 2017. I watch R2P religiously and somehow it's your "Lyndon's Luggage" video that's giving me the itch to ADV again.

[@colinkutz5930]

Me too! I guess we get some kind of enjoyment out of the self reliance, preparedness and cool gear!

[@desertdenizen6428]

Very thorough and useful. I am only missing youth, skill and money. Excellent channel. 👍👍

[@mr_danwalsh]

Very insightful, thanks Lyndon!

[@petemcdonald8894]

Nice & tidy Lyndon, thanks

[@JoeJoeMoto]

What an awesome rundown! Thanks for taking the time to do that for us.

[@christianmouraux7269]

Thanks for sharing your great experience of remote travelling! 👍

[@brotip1]

great review, thanks a lot!!!!

[@Nanducho]

This is the best video after all routes. Thanks.

[@badbadgerretiredinthailand]

love this video, great great insight in what you carry, gives me some solid ideas, thanks

[@RideyBikes]

Awesome Lyndon, thanks very much

[@FrancoisPeens]

Awesome info mate, thanks

[@spinsing3529]

At last! This is a video I have been waiting 2years for you to make - thanks Lyndon, awesome job & good luck with the arm, mate

[@tomb.8485]

Thanks for sharing Lyndon. When they made the tank bag, if the would have flipped one of the quick disconnect clips, then after you disconnected the bag from the bike, you would be able to connect the two ends of the straps together. This would allow you to hang the strap over your shoulder to free up a hand when carrying things. Just an idea. Stay safe and don’t break anything (else).

[@Spidouz]

Yeah I had a tank bag like that that was converting into a backpack. It was very useful to keep valuable items.

[@rumo100destino6]

thank you, very good video

[@syncrosimon]

Thanks Lyndon, a real head start for people. 👍👍👍

[@RoadGlideAustralia]

Great video Lyndon. The thought process and methodology around the layout and carry list is 👌🏻 Best of health on your recovery. Thanks for the content and ride safe. 🇦🇺

[@sva9834]

One of the most complete gear vids out there. Cheers mate! Safe travels.

[@tanmilne]

That's an amazing set of spare parts and tools!

[@motoxr22]

Great video Lyndon. Thanks so much for this.

[@danocampbell3599]

Awsome setup.

[@twopoke]

Always been interested in the camping gear and tools... Thanks for the info and very long term testing!

[@TwoFourCharlie007]

Fabulous! A great source of info Lyndon, thanks for sharing😎👍

[@Trieuphoan]

Super detail... whoohoooo 🎉🎉

[@allenhuling598]

Excellent idea video....thanks for sharing your set-up! Mend quickly, and well!

[@user-wz1kd4zg9b]

Nice man! Cool vid, this will be my basis when I start riding. Thanks for the advise!

[@paulocarreiro5855]

Holy crap! Those panniers are like Sport Billy's bag! This was great. Thanks for sharing.

[@mrc1539]

The most amazing thing to me is that you were able to put everything back in after you took it all out !! I have never been able to do that , I always have stuff left over and no where to put it. 🤔 ! Take care and thanks for the video.

[@mathieubosse]

Thanks Lyndon for this video! Very impressive ! Not a lot of clothing and a lot of parts! It will help me to plan my next trip !

[@harro9447]

Ahh I love your videos in the future I want to buy one of your bikes they are amazing and so are you keep up the good work

[@Equi-Table]

Merci beaucoup pour cette description complète. (merci pour les sous-titres). Simplement bonne route ;-) Didier from Belgium

[@Paul-hu3zr]

Brilliant, best prepared moto traveller, ready for everything.

[@kleck1981]

Thank you very much for this video. It helps!

[@osimnod]

Very informative and gave me a better understanding of just how meticulously you prepared for your R2P adventures. Impressive, as always, and delivered with trademark humility.

[@jonastorsein9294]

Good, useful video.

[@marshalbird2480]

the clear can of chain lube and your explanation was good way of teaching the why's of oiling a chain--thanks

[@kawkawmccarvs7802]

Tuna and pasta in the pannier.......I never would have guessed. :)

[@thearchibaldtuttle]

Excellent and thorough presentation! It's probably very little that he cannot fix himself! Hope the hand is getting better soon!

[@beardedbaldbikers4634]

Wow you are a moving KTM spare parts department. Very impressive. Thanks for this excellent video.

[@DCCLourens]

Just ordered the backpack and addpacks with the other accessories for the bag! Well done testing and talking about the products!

[@Ronart1000]

Excellent video!! I guess I must do some shopping with Enduristan...

[@MikeMueller]

Great content. I'm rethinking a few of my packing plans now. Biggest items for me are my sleeping bag, tent and pad. I'd never get the present ones in a side bag.

[@TwoFourCharlie007]

Those pannier bags are like Doctor Who’s Tardis! A great insight there Lyndon, my missus just bought the tool roll for me for Xmas😎

[@sickunit2096]

Ive had quite a few tank bags in the past but gave Enduristan a chance. Really happy with it.

[@carpediem3006]

Thanks 👍

[@nawiribrahim]

Most well prepared RTW tripper. You know what you are doing for 👍

[@marceloaraujo5978]

Excellent and smart ideas and really very well organized! interesting for me is that you really trust on your GPS around the world!! you do not take any map just in case something happens with your GPS!! Hugs from Brazil!

[@Jamiebob9771]

Topnotch, Love seeing how people are make video on thier motorcycle.

[@gafrers]

Fantastic

[@beerfeverag]

Lovely man... Very handy 😉

[@johnburgess5534]

Hi Lyndon for the demo. I was extremely impressed by how quickly you re-packed your gear. I lay all my stuff out before packing, then I halve it and pack what’s left, and I still come home with some stuff unused. Safe riding.

[@uavoftexas6925]

Wow! You are very prepared and need to be with the adventures you do. Impressed! My bike weighs the most when riding with all my buddies. They don't carry a thing because they know I do. A few have found out that it comes with a healthy price when needed. LOL

[@swimlilfizhy]

Best video ever

[@smrangers22]

love it .... just start the bike up and off you go ... frrrrreeeeeeeeedom

[@ThisTall]

This was muc more interesting then I thought it would be. Would love to see a fully loaded weight of Basil Bike. I never would have guessed there was that much storage in the front faring, or an entire Pannier dedicated to spare parts/tools.

[@patrickcooper9641]

What a fantastic review. You just remInded me of a couple things that I needed to pack for my next adventure. Now my problem is when and where will I go since it might not be possible to travel across any borders for a while! Cheers

[@robocombo]

Just bought a t-shirt on the Lyndon Poskitt Racing website. Had a browse through the other products, there's quite a few things on my shopping list now. I'd certainly rather spend money there than on Patreon.

[@dustinenduro44]

Good vid big dog!

[@86afritz]

Amazing video, just what I needed for planning the big trip. Thank you!

[@vityacan]

Brilliant idea of mavic controller on velcro on tank. I use spider net, but now thinking of ways to mount controller to GPS mount (or actually to GPS itself) so it is directly in front of my eyes when I ride

[@Rufus-OG]

Fantastic video Lyndon. Amazing to see all the stuff you carry and given the massive adventure you’ve been on it’s interesting to see your version of the essentials. Only thing missing for me .. all that stuff but only a 2 litre water bladder? Surely you have more water than the bladder in your backpack given the remote locations you’re travelling in. So how much do you carry and where?

[@zawawiyahya1512]

Great👍❤️

[@sharonsharon2604]

I wonder how much these panniers weight... Great vid about adventure packing, straight from a true professional.

[@thedukeofrotherham9551]

Would be great to see the tool roll sold with the tools you take with you. Appreciate that some are bike specific, but could this be something for the future? If not, then it would be great to see a list of the tools you decided to ride with. All the best!

[@paulaus]

If you watch the Toby Price Dakar Videos, Lydon has in his left pannier what KTM carry on a Pantec for the Dakar :D

[@carlokitzman1266]

lyndon number one

[@vespatravels9618]

Very well planed out kit or should say kits.

[@idayvueltaenmoto]

Nice video. Thanks for take your time to share with us. How many liters is the Monsoon panniers?

[@keithluke1341]

Thanks for making this extensive video Lyndon good insight into life on the road. I use the Enduristan tornado 2L and recently purchased the 25L backpack like there stuff. One question though what first aid kit do you use?

[@phildavid7272]

Cracking video sir. Your Enduristan organiser is brilliant, got one for tools and another for GoPro/phone bits. Quick question, did you make the adjustable little stand that goes under the swingarm or is it a commercially available one?

[@caroldave4037]

Always have your valuables between your legs 😉😉😉😉 brilliant packing wot yu need ....cheer from dave

[@bademeister0289]

I was waiting a long time for this vid! Gave me lots of ideas to improve my own luggage. I srsly have to get smaller camping gear^^ one question though: the only extra fuel you carry with you is the small bottle for the cooker?

[@dragonquestbarrios1092]

I wish this video was out 30 years ago. It would have saved me verbal abuse. And not tearing a new tube... Thanks for all your videos..

[@dazbagsmason]

Hey Lyndon, what happened to the Magadan panniers, i thought you loved then ?? Great channel

[@TATTOO850]

Packer PRO...!!

[@bobmcgrath1272]

Excellent information Possibly I missed it, but where do you store your food?

[@fairdinkum9454]

GoPro Hero 4…?! About time to try the 10 maybe? 😄

[@konstruktus]

Fucking awesome!

[@antonberger1233]

Thank you for this very nice video! Can you say what drone you use? Thanks a lot.

[@WRW9751]

Very well thought out! What would Basil weigh all packed with fuel?

[@varieze117pj7]

What's the total weight of all your gear including bags? Sorry if I missed that in the video. A great kit for bush flying as well. Keep it light. Super informative video. Well done.

[@onemilemore541]

Wow, this is excellent. Thanks Lyndon! I'm often thinking of better ways of packing my bike and really enjoy finding out how a pro like yourself has found to do it. Also great advertising of the products you're using. Your opinion really matters to guys (and gals) like us. I am curious as to why you don't use a form of tubeless tires. We all know you're no stranger to flats. I've been meaning to convert to tubeless, is there a reason you don't?

[@onemilemore541]

Lyndon Poskitt Makes sense, thanks Lyndon!

[@creedm3040]

Great video! What is the difference in weight between the left and right panniers ? Best!

[@thomasmakupe7759]

enjoy KENYA

[@pippoquota5736]

great tips, great idea for storage in any bike, thanks for sharing your enormous experience but you will excuse my total ignorance, what is the meaning of "basil" bike?

[@andrewmack2161]

I didn't know that durex made lens wipes.... :-D

[@sickunit2096]

A comment on those shoes you’re wearing..some of the best shoes Ive ever owned. Did you special order the green ones you’ve worn in previous videos?

[@johnbradley1599]

Thanks for sharing Lyndon. No mention of quick access to toilet paper or hand sanitizer ?

[@disabledman8697]

With the amount of weight you already have on your bike, a couple of gramms won't make that much of a difference, but the Leatherman Rebar offers more ( albeit not always the same) tools while also being slightly lighter and slightly better packable than the Wave, du to a more rectangular form. I do like the Enduristan backpack. But before I invest in that, i think i'll buy a proper set of sidecases. Far more useful on my road bike...

[@beemore444]

I thought it was your stash of condoms in the base of your tank bag lol

[@TravelCampandCapture]

When will the Monsoon EVO be available?

[@candycarsrentalcars4241]

i was looking for a tent didnt know that they are so expensive

[@Adv_Charlie]

By the looks of your pannier contents one is surely heavier than the other. Is that the case? And if so have you done that for a reason?

[@robertrobhog]

Lyndon how do you secure your bags when you leave your bike in towns and city's

[@thedukeofrotherham9551]

I've got to ask: where are your front indicators mounted?!?

[@samjones8379]

Hi Lyndon, I see the Evo panniers are being released this summer, what size are you using? 24 or 34L

[@zoltankenwell1514]

Hey Lyndon, what does your entire kit with bike weigh?
