S1E2 Black Hills BDRx | KLR650 | Pushing forward on Section 1

After fixing my rear tire in the last episode, I continue my journey on section 1 of the Black Hills BDRx on my overloaded KLR650. There's surprises around every corner in this episode.

Great scenery attitude. As for getting killed, gazing at scenery, "STOP ... and smell the roses!" "It's not the destination (time); it's the journey!"

Discoveror9576, this is the truth I'm learning. Stop racing back to the time clock. Thanks for the comment!

I gotta say I’m really enjoying these videos. That looks like a truly beautiful part of the world. The scenery is spectacular. Definitely KLR country. Thanks so much. 👍🇦🇺

WE NEED THE NEXT ONE!!

[@SunSpireSunny]

impatiently waiting for the next one!

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Working on it, I had to buy two more hard drives, ran out of space!

[@kusadlamini5896]

Very inspiring Vlog

[@joellikness2121]

The Black Hills is my "if you could live anywhere" place. Glad you're enjoying it.

Great ride, man! Call of the Wild is an awesome game, also! I played that game for a few years. Can't tell you how many times my buddy and I have been taken out by bison lol. Keep up the awesome videos!

Fun video series so far. I do have some observations though. You way overloaded your bike and you also don't appear to have practiced riding with the bike fully loaded. Personally, I like to practice with about 20 pounds more than what my actual loadout will be which does two things. It makes sure I can handle my bike with everything on it and it also makes it so I'm ready if I should pick up a few souvenirs or end up needing to add extra food/water for a portion of the ride. You should work on your terrain reading and off road skills on the KLR as well so handling the terrain will become so easy that you can ride almost entirely by feel which will let you take in the scenery without those "oh shit" moments. Motocross and hard enduro training help a lot for adventure riding. My racing experience enabled me to take my KLR across the Rubicon Trail. Anyway, this looks like one hell of an adventure and I hope to put my DRZ or my KLR on that BDR one day!

[@retiredwaterdoctor]

great place to ride....keep them coming

[@Thepig-wm5hq]

Good stuff man!!

[@AzMtnThumper]

This looks like a fun route. Looking forward to the next video.

[@alt0v14]

nice sound quality you have

[@towntourin]

Great drone footage bro!

[@Handirifle]

Lol, you picked your screen name very well. Loved the video.

[@michaelledford3315]

Another KZbinr called " Some Guy Rides is always saying he is going to die because of such beautiful views he sees while he is on his bike. He calls it " Death By View " Great to see your videos. Keep them coming. I love seeing another KLR rider video. I love mine!!!!

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Thanks Michael, these bikes are addicting!

[@andrewkay5829]

I don't know how this video dosen't get more views

[@kawabungah20]

Fun ride for us viewers, too!

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Glad you're enjoying it, means alot!

[@biggooddad]

If your going to ride that aggressively, i would 86 that tank bag so you can sit all the way forward and stop the front end from washing out so bad in the corners. Great ride by the way

[@lrs_reloader3634]

Can't wait to see more! Great job on the editing and narration! What RV is it that you have?

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Thanks! That's an Intech Explore, works great for this purpose.

I just did that very same BDR rout in this episode, I swear the same cows too. I did it on my 2023 KTM 890 Adventure R so I did it faster because the KTM just wants to race where ever it goes. Did the hard rout up to Bear mountain lookout too, cost was one windscreen.

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Haha good old Bear Mountain, that's where I laid it down too!

[@joseph401]

Wheres the rest of the videos? A movie with no ending...lol

[@frostbitevinnie]

Good job! SD is nice riding compared to MN!

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Yes the landscape is breath taking, I will definitely be riding out there more.

[@DrewBonham]

Do you have progressive springs on the KLR or just stock?

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

Hi Drew - suspension is all stock, really been eyeing the Cogent setup though for some more versatility.

[@DrewBonham]

@LostOnTwoWheels I'm 205 before gear and did progressive front... haven't resprung the rear shock yet but either way you go new springs make a world of difference. I did steel braided brake lines, new pads, and the Tusk oversized front rotor.... its like a different bike now in the TN hills and mountains

[@LostOnTwoWheels]

I want all these upgrades!!

[@DrewBonham]

I got parts from rocky mountain moto and atv, tusk lines and rotor kit, ebc pads, progressive front springs. All under 500

[@DrewBonham]

Sick videos! I think he's answer is yes to the KLR. Doesn't do anything well but it's an awesome tool to learn on and will do it all

[@Motorideto]

When will new vids be released? :).
