Is one of the best bikes that will never Produced again. Only mechanical parts. No electronics, less problems.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Amen!

[@zdenekstary1]

What? 950 is one big problem...

[@Tws5515]

Your buddy has a wicked mustache 👍👍 And great looking 950, black was always the best looking color for this model.

[@wheelhousegarage]

I agree!

[@MrTench8]

I bought a new 950 adventure in 2004, took it all over Europe from the UK several times, Awesome bike! I could be tempted by one again if a nice one turned up for sale! The suspsension is amazing!

[@christopherwall8468]

Great job Bill! Your video skills are better each time. This is something I look forward to every Saturday. Keep them coming.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Really appreciate the compliment Christopher!

[@cycles4fun]

That was a really fun ride. Good times with good peeps. You ride the heck out of that big girl and it sounds soooooo good! And like any hot one, they always look great in black!

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thank you so much!

[@jeffferguson899]

Old guys rule .love your channel

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thanks Jeff!

[@herbyderbys1629]

That thing is beautiful. I would KILL to have an on off road! I've only had sport bikes but that's been 10 years ago. That thing looks so incredible thank you for showing it to us. Much love from Georgia!

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thanks for watching!

Super cool video! Jimmy from Murphy’s turned me on to this when he gave me a tube for my KTM 250. I just got a place in Forest Meadows. I used to ride an 89 R100 GS and I still ride an 06 950 Adventure! The best way to describe the 950 is “raw”, such fun bikes to ride. Hopefully I’ll see you guys out sometime. Would love to meet you and maybe tag a long sometime.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Right on! So nice of Jimmy to mention my videos. We will have to get together for an adventure ride!

[@michaelglynn2638]

Perfect day. Great bike, great company, great ending. 👌

[@wheelhousegarage]

Couldn't agree more!

[@waisel1]

Great video Ned Flanders! ;-)

[@wheelhousegarage]

Haha thanks!

[@ireneuszireneusz428]

this GS rules

[@wheelhousegarage]

They are wonderful

[@ScottieSharpe]

Great video! Always a pleasure to hang out with you guys! See ya at Aria coffee shop. Thursdays at 9a 😜

[@wheelhousegarage]

So fun riding with you Scottie!

[@davet3947]

That machine is an absolute mule and I will bet it is as stubborn in some cases😎 the machines,and the scenery were top notch and you guys handle them quite well!!!

[@wheelhousegarage]

A mule is a great description! Thanks for the kind words!

[@Matthew-wn8oq]

Nothin better than tearing it up and steering with the back wheel.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Oh yeah!

[@kloss213]

Found a 2012 990 Adventure R this year had to buy it. Installing Heed bars and a pair of slip ons. New tires 70% off rd use.

[@richardsimpson3792]

Nice one...I've got a 950 Adv. Amazing countryside...if you are ever in Cornwall, UK you must come & ride with us!

[@wheelhousegarage]

I would love to!

[@MM-xr6tz]

Cool ride Bill.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thanks!

[@Beyond2Wheels]

Where are you out of? I ride my 950 in West Point on occasion,I grew up in Calaveras.

[@wheelhousegarage]

Nice! I'm in Murphys and typically ride out of Arnold.

[@daviddrabek5834]

Love your channel! How does the 950 handle with elevation changes?

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thank you so much! You know, for being carbureted, it kind of surprising but I actually do not notice any significant differences between sea level and 8,000 ft elevation

[@daviddrabek5834]

@@wheelhousegarage wow that’s pretty good!! Thank you for your quick reply and content.

[@spwb2k]

Worthy.

[@wheelhousegarage]

🙏

[@jfabllck]

what jacket are you wearing? looks great!

[@wheelhousegarage]

Thanks this is the first adventure jacket from Leatt, I think I got it back in 2017 and it has been really great for off-road riding in colder temps.

[@jfabllck]

it would be almost imposible to find a second hand one in mexico. @@wheelhousegarage

[@mauriciosoto4638]

Vale la pena comprar una ktm adventure 950 cc año 2005 ahora en 2024❓

[@Matthew-wn8oq]

Holy gas prices! 😂

[@wheelhousegarage]

right!

[@cfvgd]

The 950 had the worst tires installed out of all bikes in that crew.

[@xXRedEyedStrangerXx]

Never sell that bike ❤️
