TW200 MotoCamping | Wandering Aimlessly around the Forest Until I find the perfect Camp Spot

[@shawnscrimsher2207]

He's Alive‼ Going to breakfast and watch your video good to see you back. Then I'll be out on my TW in the desert today😎🇺🇸

[@TDubsKid]

hey there! still lots of motocamping videos to edit. great to here! glad to be back. have fun out there, i'm going to the grassland monday

[@FreeTimeAdventures]

​@@TDubsKid I've missed these camping videos! It feels like forever since the last one! 🎉

[@RandyChaseII]

You can always start a fire with your bike. Dip a cloth in the gas tank pull out the spark plug and turn the bike over using the plug spark to ignite the cloth. We do this with snowmobiles.

[@JulesMariani]

TDubs with the cinematography. I'm happy I recently joined the TW squad. Maybe I'll try to make a video of riding in Hawaii

[@RealShipmate]

Good things come to those who wait.

[@TDubsKid]

haha for sure

[@johnF56]

As usual...another excellent adventure / video. It inspires me to get my TW out and ready for the season. Thanks for sharing, Wes.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks so much! Glad the videos are inspiring. No problem!

[@timothypdevine]

I bought a TW last fall because of you, and I'm happy I did. I just wish I lived in an area where I could explore like you do. In Minneapolis, the trails are all a few hours north. No matter, I can live vicariously though you and your adventures! Your love for the outdoors and your youthful spirit are fun to watch. Please keep these great videos coming.

[@WanderingDad]

It's been a long cold winter, it's good to see you back in the saddle.

[@TDubsKid]

It has, everything change for me over the winter, whole new life now. Thanks

[@lukebaker717]

Good to see you back! I just found your channel a couple of weeks ago and you inspired me to take the plunge and buy a bike! I got a 2024 TW200!

[@NAT-rd8fl]

Replace that front tire ASAP, they're frankly dangerous

[@JacobAnawalt]

"I blame those rocks" So do we, so do we! You're MacGyver enough. Thanks for sharing!

[@TDubsKid]

Haha! They setting traps! Well much better than I use to be, thanks for watching

[@jhackett9482]

Great to see a new video! Look forward to more of them this summer.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! More to come

[@maxflight777]

Super content ! A TW200 isn’t the world’s most exciting dirt bike … but who cares ? You are out there enjoying yourself! Thanks for sharing, best wishes

[@TDubsKid]

thanks! it's a fun bike for sure. yeah nice being out riding all the outdoors

[@davidweeks1997]

[@plantme777]

Amazing cinematic work…for real! Favorite one yet, and I enjoy them all so very much. Thank you!!! Come ride in the NC mountains sometime. 😊

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks so much! Glad to hear, maybe ill make it out that way sometime

That is some beautiful country out there.

[@TDubsKid]

Indeed! It never ends haha

[@Troubleshooter539]

Wow 😍 New video. I’m ready to watch 😎😎😎

[@TDubsKid]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@monoshock57]

Glad there weren't any talking rocks. Lol that freaked me out on that one video.

[@TDubsKid]

Haha 😆 people love the talking rocks 🪨

[@whitecompany18]

Get a ferro rod and striker to keep under your saddle 🔥👍

[@TDubsKid]

Great idea!

[@kevinnashskitchen3517]

Spark plug might light some lint you could get out of clothes.. transfer it to dry grass. 😂

[@trueword247]

Great to see you post again! Miss you man!

[@TDubsKid]

Hey, thanks! More to come

[@advfortheking]

Nice opening!

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks!

[@matthewkrisowaty8960]

Man glad you're back... always enjoy your videos so much !!!! and man I was thinking the whole time why didn't you use the jetboil for starting your campfire.. then you added that at the end of the video man I did l laugh.. not at you just the whole thing..so now you will always remember that trick !!!! and also carry spare wooden matches and or extra lighters... hide them all over your bike.. 😁

[@LetsrideJ]

great video, makes me want the snow to hurry up and melt to get back into the mountains.

[@birdmandave]

I’d LOVE to be able to moto camp with you, the scenery in Colorado…. Makes me want to moto camp it

[@TDubsKid]

Its awesome here im in a new situation that allows me to moto camp like crazy this summer

[@BJJNINJA215]

Man I absolutely love these videos ❤

[@TDubsKid]

Glad you like them!

[@miskinanacademy7583]

Love your videos man, I'll watch this one after work

[@TDubsKid]

Glad you enjoy, thanks for watching!

[@uncletom1971]

18:30 Yep, I know exactly how it feels. The road just wants you to go on it.

[@TDubsKid]

Haha exactly!

[@RC51Rod]

Just stick a stick in your gas tank and pull your spark plug and hold it to the stick and hit the starter button! FIRE!

[@bradh74]

I enjoy your videos! We need more young men like yourself in this country/world! I know there's a ton of good people left but it wouldn't hurt to have more good natured free spirted young people in the world today! I should have moved out of the city so my sons had more places to roam, we don't have the parks like you do out west. I love Ohio but there's @10-11million people here!

[@freetv77]

The time lapse segments were really beautiful. Thanks for posting. Also, I think you might be able to get a fire started off the exhaust. Perhaps dip some dry grass or paper in gas, and then hold them to the exhaust right from the cylinder. Worth a try at least. Peace. Out and Happy Resurrection Sunday! (Aka Easter).

[@MarcAmenson]

Hey man! Heading out to the Glennwood Springs area with my TW, a TTR125 and a CT125. Do you have any videos of trails in that area? Thanks buddy!

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks! Glad to be back

[@uncletom1971]

@@TDubsKid .. but you didn't meet a talking rock this time. Why?

[@drzrider3440]

Man, bummer about the no fire. I broke down only 1 time riding alone. At the top of the mountain. Did even planes on hitting up the dirt, so didnt bring anything with....not even a lighter. And when the sun goes down here, its just like there. It gets cold. I got lucky and had one car come by and gave me their lighter for a fire while I waited for help getting me and bike home. But would truly suck to figure it out like you did the next day. Id be passed at myself....but lesson learned im sure. I now Carey two lighters and one of which is one of those plasma lighters thats rechargeable, so I always have a lighter even when the fuel runs out.

[@birdmandave]

I have used my iso stove to start camp fires. Haha. Awesome video Wes

[@TDubsKid]

Haha yeah its perfect for that, cant believe I didn’t think of that

[@Super1handed_rc]

As always great video

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks so much!

[@SteveWaller-r8y]

Great ride the next time you're camping with no lighter get your fire pit ready with wood remove your spark plug dip a stick in your gas can crank engine over fire ready to put in bird's nest and move to fire pit warm and toasty have fun always enjoy watching your vids

[@lumbrjackedpcj]

It's safe to say i speak for everyone, need more talking rocks! Another enjoyable video!

[@TDubsKid]

Haha yeah people love the talking rocks! 🪨 thanks

[@lkjoiukjh]

You should try to dip some gas with a cloth, put it to the spark-plug and slam the TW's kickstart... I am not saying it should work, but worth trying and it looks fun lol

[@ArcticJeff]

Great video, Wes. Your riding videos always inspire me to go on my own rides and to get out and do that maintenance that I keep procrastinating doing. Looking forward ep 2. BTW, have you seen how to start a fire with the spark from your spark plug? Its a little sketchy but will work if in a pinch. Several YT videos on how to do it (safely). Cheers!

[@heather_the_plant]

I've been finding lots of trails in Colorado lately, where farmers just put gates over marked forest roads and claim them as their own

[@TDubsKid]

Get avenza and download the national forest motor vehicle use maps you need here is an example… Check out this map on the Avenza Map Store www.avenzamaps.com/maps/1598793 Make sure to read it all and you can ride anywhere the map allows. The latest motor vehicle use map has the final say. A lot of times you just need open the gate yourself and close it behind you, to keep the cows from escaping. if the gate is locked and it shouldn’t be call the forest service and they will straighten things out

[@ridgetop8161]

Awesome new vid.

[@TDubsKid]

Thanks!

[@mblitvich6]

If you had a piece of paper or something similar you could have dipped it into the gas tank, then pulled the sparkplug wire out and use the spark to light the paper. Haven't tried it myself but saw someone online try it.

[@steveallen1128]

Time for new navigation equipment

[@TDubsKid]

Yeah for sure, I like my phone honestly

[@davidbelz6113]

Pull the gas line and your spark plug. A splash of gas on something and crank the bike to spark it up.

[@ridethroughlifertl]

I know this was like 5 years ago, but you can start a fire with your spark plug. Or just bridge the battery terminals. I always keep a book-size magnifying glass in my pack, but it obviously needs the sun for that.

[@advfortheking]

Man that is the worse when you have no way to start a fire. Happened to me before. Had to use my battery to spark my stove. Lit a fire with that, but you have to have jumper cables. 😅 Great video!

[@advfortheking]

Also Happy Easter/ Resurrection day!

[@advfortheking]

Oh, you did find your stove lol, lol moment when you had the solution all along, mines not nice enough to have a sparker 😂

[@blinnbh]

Good for you getting out there living an actual life as aposed to the lie we are all sold... Also every time I watch one of your videos I have to check out the prices on tw200s haha.

great idea, ill have to make a video on that

[@sagebrushsteppe]

Hi really like your moto camping videos. Not too long ago I watched a video you did with your van and using a number of different power banks. In the 2000 watt range is there a particular one you would recommend???

[@TDubsKid]

thanks! yeah I have tested out a few brands. so far I like Bluetti the best. seems to be the best quality and best warranty. if I bought one right now. it would be this one. I keep seeing it going on sale under 1000 lately. super good deal for 2kwh of capacity www.amazon.com/BLUETTI-Portable-Station-Generator-Included/dp/B0BWN3MDQX/ref=sr_1_6?crid=3VEWRACV9KF0J&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.gJQk6deIpRJvEpeZFHe7t9SumJd-hvsb2txwMmWST5S3Ahscu_RBhBbHR6lMmEb0P4TLmaynbZ82nSoGaNhnje-ukUrwbP0WG_UHs1TllDedpsD1BtiOImTd5-LSYlTmmA-wivWTS5NRcCrdYRPwBy8tBNc3bt83UKtKBjaKHfA_THMu1bSJ1SH5kCURJFsZGhRGeooYCUSGFK4xmpZ7v-iFvz3R4Lbh71nsdt__6bc.zC-q6aCMlM1Cvqstx06gE2L7jjOm6LY6v5-pHbyBmFw&dib_tag=se&keywords=bluetti+2000+watt&qid=1713903214&sprefix=bluetti+2000+watt%2Caps%2C236&sr=8-6

[@sagebrushsteppe]

@@TDubsKid Thanks. That one looked like the best option to me too. I had picked up a 300 watt solar panel but found the solar panel put out 24 volts and the Bluetti required a minimum of 36 volts. So I guess I have to look for cost effective solar panels that put out at least 36 volts
