STATION COUNTRY - 1000KM KTM 500 ADVENTURE!

[@llama233]

Not sure what caused the KZbin algos to suggest this video to me but I'm glad it did! Beautifully shot and edited, great riding and a nice soundtrack with just enough story telling over the top. Fantastic, I've subscribed for more 🙂

[@IronbarkMX]

I believe the algorithm is suggesting smaller channels more and more these days to promote growth like TikTok has seen. I'm all for it! Thank you mate!

[@raratate]

Great vid,

[@IronbarkMX]

@raratate Thanks mate 👍🏻

[@mrlemonadesandwich]

Your storytelling and videography are very reminiscent of Adam Reiman, and he is one of the best in the business. Great video, great story, and amazing scenery. Thanks for taking us with you into some truly magnificent riding country.

[@IronbarkMX]

@mrlemonadesandwich What a compliment mate. Thank you heaps.

[@roadstrom]

Excellent video mate well done 👍

[@IronbarkMX]

@roadstrom Thanks mate 👍🏻

Great vid mate, I’m up in Cairns with a 500-ADV. best bikes going I reckon. FNQ has endless amounts of tracks to explore hey, best place in Aus 🤘

[@IronbarkMX]

@chinski1 Cairns is a great spot mate. Lots of access to areas from Cairns!

[@gav7024]

Well done mate, you’re punching out some awsome vids. Always wondered what three rivers hotel looked like👌

[@IronbarkMX]

Thank you mate. Unfortunately I'm still human and didn't want to be awkward filming inside the pub. It's full of writing on the roof and tributes to slim. Really cool pub.

Mate & I did Gunnawarra Rd on our way back from Cape York in 2021. We lived at Balgal Beach. Great video. Well done.

[@IronbarkMX]

@aussiebackroadadventures9927 It was a great scenic ride. Hopefully I can find time to do the Cape before moving south!

[@youtoob8166]

[@mattparker5639]

Awesome video mate, I've just picked up a new 24 KTM 500 and setting it up similar to yours. Awesome bike

[@IronbarkMX]

Great bike mate. I ride mine a bit too hard and she's not as beautiful as it was when I first picked it up but it is a dirtbike! Wish you all the best on your build+

[@spa491]

[@IronbarkMX]

Cheers for the support mate!

[@darrylcalleja2922]

Great video ride all the same areas plus heaps more. I’ve run MT21 for years on my 625.

[@IronbarkMX]

@darrylcalleja2922 If you know of any good spots be sure to let me know!

[@JonathanVee]

Amazing video dude! How on earth did your ass survive on that stock seat?? Probably the most amazing part of this video if I'm being honest 🤣 jk the filming, editing and riding was epic! Subscribed👌

[@IronbarkMX]

Mate the Seat Concepts XL Comfort is on the way and I'm hanging out! My ass has been brutalised on one too many trips now! 🤣

[@JonathanVee]

@@IronbarkMX I just put a comfort XL on my 501. Big improvement for sure. 1000kms would push it tho. lol.

[@trevthetroll]

Just fuckin get there, heh heh chuckle, bit like that eh! Good vid mate 👍

[@IronbarkMX]

@trevorhay5181 Especially when the new KTMs start choking with more than half a litre left in the tank! Wasn't happy with myself that morning haha!

[@KeepItSimpleSailor]

Thx for the route preview. North Queensland is pretty good aye 👍🏻

[@IronbarkMX]

I just need to go further north now!

[@KeepItSimpleSailor]

@@IronbarkMX I hear The Cape is nice and wet for ya 😁

[@IronbarkMX]

@@KeepItSimpleSailor Mate I'd love to! Haha

[@Jd_Wright]

Enjoying the videos. Reckon we bought the same bike at similar times so enjoying seeing an adjacent build progress. The adventure spec mini fairing is a good addition if you want to throw off some wind and have nav and switches out of the way. Relatively cheap and light compared to a full rally set-up. Though the finish is a bit rough. I have a 15 L tank on mine and the light comes on at about 140 miles. Have only pushed it 15 miles after this and it needs a wiggle. How is the Montana working out for you? I've been close to getting one a few times. The phone works alright but I am anxious about smashing it in the middle of nowhere. Wish I could ride and film man, full-time, it's so much work. Keep it up

[@IronbarkMX]

Yeah that's definitely on the list, sorting out the front of the bike. The GPS was in a shit spot this trip but it was a rush job to get the trip going. Yeah no real complaints on the montana so far. I will be buying some more detailed topo maps for it. I love that it has the SOS function in built, as well as messaging home and navigation. I just wanted to buy one thing that did it all.

[@alanzammit750]

Loving your vids mate, definitely got to stop and take it in sometimes 👌 What gearing are you running?

[@IronbarkMX]

15 - 50 for trips with long highway runs. 14 - 50 the rest of the time. Sometimes I'll put a 13 on the front if I'm doing really tight stuff. Thanks for the support mate!

[@hackgolfer7352]

Great video. Is that a Garmin you're using? if so, keen to hear your thoughts. Thanks

[@IronbarkMX]

@@hackgolfer7352 Yeah mate it's a Garmin Montana 700i. I definitely need to download more detailed maps which I believe is more money. Otherwise, once you get used to it, it is good. And made really well, it wore the full brunt of that crash and was fine.

[@hackgolfer7352]

@@IronbarkMX Thank you
