This why I subscribed. I didn’t know wether to be offended or in awe. I sound sexist but it’s fact the majority of women don’t ride bikes and then a small percent of those are in the genuine passion club. The way she talks about bikes she has the passion. The way she rides the bike she has passion. And she’s gorgeous.

Of all the approximately one zillion ADV bike reviews I’ve watched this is among the very best in terms of actually getting down and dirty, doing spinning turns, and dropping and picking up the bike. Really great video! About the boots: I usually wear motocross boots and I adjust the shift lever upward slightly to make getting the boot toe under the lever easier.

Thanks for the clip. I ride with a set of Gaerne Trials boots that offer adequate protection, they are not extremely hard and have a relatively low and soft sole for great feeling of the controls. They are also 100% waterproof (tried to drown them and failed!). BTW, you look great but blue eyes, blue nails and blue jacket better suits a Yamaha! P.S. For the power turn, you need to "surprise" the rear wheel with sudden power which means you need to dump the clutch on one go (conversely, slipping the clutch helps with traction).

Vanessa, you are a beast!! in the most polite and nicest possible sense. Woman handling that bike and picking it up so many times was a testament to you and the recovery from your hip injury. Wow. As for your backend shenanigans 🤔🤔 I will just say lucky Ruckymonster 😂😂 Your enthusiasm and bravery taking bikes off road leaves me feeling rather humble, apart from the fact that I have to pay for my bike so need to be a bit wary or BMW won’t want it back lol, I would be doing green lanes ASAP. Your presentation and technical specs are remarkable, considering you do not seem to have any prompts. You could certainly teach some so called professional presenters a thing or two. Plus to top all of that you’re a beauty. We are not worthy. Keep up the great work and your riding is becoming fantastic. You should think about starting your own riding school one day ❤️❤️

It surely is an amazing bike, I was offered a nice discount to buy the 1100 but I chose the 1000 instead. The 1100 has got crazy amount of buttons, million levels of traction control, engine braking etc. I like simplicity therefore went for the 1000 option. But the Adventure Sports (is that correct name?) version looks gorgeous! Shame the bike is so tall! I use my CRF1000 for travelling only, been to Norway 4x, visited Switzerland, Austria and plenty other countries in eastern Europe. Greetings from Bristol

Looks like there is no real tip over protection for that exhaust, am I wrong? I guess if you had saddle bags that might do it. Great video. Do you not like a chin mount camera?

The pipe kind of had a guard on it but nothing else. I've dropped it several times now and the pipe is untouched. It almosts lands more forwards. Saying thay Honda might do a pipe guard but I just don't have it. Chin mounts. Emotional one lol. I had one and then... I didn't have it or my gopro haha I need to try again but make sure I have the back up strap on as they're really good. Just losing a gopro with it failing didnt make me too happy lol

loved every single minute. i wonder how tf can you run so fast on those muddy tracks😧 it was a great info about your height-seat-foot landing on the ground. thx for the amazing video. ps. you said it's a 24 liters, was it a misunderstanding or there are other versions of standard 1100 that im missing? cause 24 on standard would be super cool

Wow great vid, I like the glamour but it's your off road ability that's the watch. I went to my local Honda dealer and sat on one. I know things are different with covid. The salesperson sat in his seat then when I left he said any good ? I said not for me. He never asked why ? I worked in sales for years and this is a cardinal sin. I'm 174cm and it felt too high and not for me. I've owned a GS with a lower seat which was manageable. You told me there is a lower seat option ! If I go and buy one you should get the sale ! As it is BMW or Triumph might get my money

haha aw thank you. That's pretty miserable sales story to hear, sorry to hear that. I sadly doesn't surprise me. I've walked into a show room before and been faced with the sales guy asking "so if you knew how to ride, which bike would you pick?" Like really? OMG haha. I'd say keep open to the AT, it's awesome! But so is the Tiger and GS lol. So many options
