Thanks! Yes, skills get you out of trouble and spare of lot sweat and tears :)

Plenty of torque, not such a good on wet terrain using OEM tires

I do about 50/50 On/Off Road and so far did not have any tire puncture. How ever I was able to deform a front tire on hard impact and bend rear rim (later fixed with press). But must point out that I use my AT quite aggressive Off-Road sometimes. Over all spoked rims are more forgiving on impact than casted ones but still for aggressive riding it's a good idea to buy racing spoked wheels (I was looking at Haans from Netherlands), they are about 1/3 stronger than OEM in my case.

No, I have stock suspension, also tiptoeing. I compensate with leaning to the side that I need, then I get full foot down.

It's an interesting structure isn't it!? Not far away there is "Gola Plješevica" mountain that's got an amazing view, recommended. I use GoPro10 stock out of the box SuperWide View 60FPS.

Thanks! Garmin Zumo XT

Yes, she still need to work on coupe of details... :)

About the same on Metzeler 80/20 tires. On this Mitas 50/50 it's a little bit lower

Yes those tires were not quite beneficial for such terrain... :)

i can tell from 2018 dct user perspective, stock gearing is perfect, never felt need for shorter gearing and i do quite a bit of offroading ; if anything, 6th could be a little longer for highway ;

I use standard ratio

I actually take care to use low speed when encountering cyclists or pedestrians. I just checked on this video, I passed that lady at 18km/h which I don't consider too high... But yes overall I tend to drive little bit faster than averidge driver, must be all those years of driving... gives me little bit more joy I guess.

It was an opportunity run, so it did not come to my mind, but yes it would be very sense :)

Indeed but makes me comfortable. Tradeoff... :)

lol it’s not like he’s going 80mph

Thanks! Yes the weather and drive was really nice :)

Totally agree with you

Got you 😁

Hello bro! I must admit I had high expectations for 2024 AT, but when official spec was released by Honda it left me a little bit disappointed. I was hoping for more power and off-road orientation. That would be the trigger for me to buy 2024 ADV version. But since it's almost the same (except the wheels) as 2023 ADV (what I have current) I will stick with it for now. This is also the reason I did not do the test ride with 2024. When buying AT the very important thing to get electronic suspension as well, this makes big difference.

@@RideWithGec Bro; I watched many users talking about how well the DCT transmission works, how can they want to use a DCT transmission in an adventure bike like the Africa twin. If I'm not going to change gears myself, why do I drive a motorcycle, I'll just go and buy a car with an automatic transmission, am I right?

Watching from the Philippines

​@@ahmetokur1903 you are spot on and if you are going on some serious Off-Road clutch can not be fully replaced with DCT.

I just realized you might not speak Italian :D I was asking about the year of your Africa Twin, and the front tire size. Thank you!

@@mrv9467Thanks for your support! Yes Italy especially North part has some amazing sceneries. Honda is 2023 with 21'' front wheel :)

@@RideWithGec Thank you for your response!

Here used to take off jets once

Thanks! Here is link for the mount. You still need to buy Garmin original mount since it goes on top on this one: www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004207327849.html

@@RideWithGec Awesome! Thank you.

Sony FDR-AX43 Handycam and GoPro 10

Epic scenery ride is coming soon, stay tuned! :)

I am using Garmin Zumo XT. It's not perfect, it has a few glitches. The biggest issue is the power cable connector (PINs get damaged especially when used Off-Road, then powering the device fails, it's common issue with many users). Garmin replaced me 2 power supplays with this cable under the warranty in 1 year of use. Then I figured it out why this is happening and made some custom bracket that fixed this issue for good.

Hello! Currently I am on Mitas E-07 Enduro. 19''' wheel will still do the job Off-Road however bigger 21'' is more suitable, but you can hardly feel the difference.

@@RideWithGec I have already had a test drive with the same Afrika Twin DCT. Your films convinced me that it is the machine for me. I like your way of exploring.

​@@ChallengeFamilyTV glad to hear that :) AT is not the fastest on the road but it pay it self Off-Road.

Thank you for your support very much! I have a little bit of crisis going on about my channel. Hopefully I will deliver more good videos in near future. Plans are there...

Thanks brother!

I had serious Off-Road accident. Actually I am still in recovery mode at the moment.

@@RideWithGec I feel so sorry for you. I hope there is no serious problem. I wish you to get well soon, take care of yourself.

@@ahmetokur1903 At first there was high possibility of complications since I had internal bleeding that created huge hematoma. I was administred to emergency room... Not long ago I had to visit my doctor every second day to thread that hematoma, thankfully this is over now. So I can say no complicationa are possible any more. I am left with some permanent skin damage, but the body mechanics should be 100% repaired over time.

@@RideWithGec Get well soon, please take care of yourself.

@@ahmetokur1903 Thank you bro!

Thanks! I am trying to improve the content, but channel grow is so frustrating slow... :)

@@RideWithGec it'll pick the pace up soon, brother. There's very few riders who take out their bikes to where they actually belong. I really appreciate you for being one.

Thanks! Yes riding alone Off-Road presents elevated risk if something goes seriously wrong. This year I had one such situation on much lighter Off-Road bike and it was not joke at all. I end up in emergency room with internal bleeding 6 hours after the accident... This things are rarely to happen but they are something to be aware of so you can prepare for it as much as possible. I might post full story about this incident in the future, so it might be useful for other drivers as well. TET's are great but yes, unfortunately single trails are disapearing from the TET Routes all over the European Countries. They are becoming mostly tarmac and some of gravel Routes. Take care!

even in our country driving in nature is prohibited. With the big exception that you have a big yard 😬

11K EUR. When I installed all additional parts it went up to 13K. Arrow being the priciest part.

Thanks! The fact is that riding off the tarmac gets more and more restricted over the Europe, even on some gravel roads. It's getting harder to explore some wild parts legally. I know that Bosnia and Hercegovina allows Off-Road without any restrictions however there are soo many mines left from the last war that you don't want to do that over there randomly... :)

Follow your dreams until they materialize. Africa Twin gives me therapeutic effect also :)

@@RideWithGec Definitely. I currently have a Kawasaki ZX14R. I love it, but people are getting absolutely insane on the roads. Time to get back to the freedom of off-road. Please keep your videos coming, for our sanity, as well. Thanks, man!

@@Jeremiah_Johnson139 You are spot on about the roads. I had ZX14 too (great bike) and it was the same reason I switched to Adventure bike. It's just not possible to use high performance bikes full potential on the streets any more.

I use to do amater hard enduro races in the past. It's just about the practise and determination. More you train better you get.

Mitas Enduro Trail (E-07)

Clips are from different parts of Croatia and Slovenia like Hills above Passo della Morte, Butoniga waterfall, Kotli village, Prelaz Bodaj, ...

Thank you, I am glad to hear that :)

Yes, waiting to put myself together in working condition so I can use the Husky again :)

Thanks mate! :)

I am already ripping mine. I am impressed over this engine, good torque on low revs and also likes to rev high, perfect combo. Yes, I found front brake little bit weak also, but for Off-Road seems perfect.

What did yours come with a removeable baffle? Is this with the baffle in? Is it so loud it’s obnoxious or does it just sound better than stock and a bit louder? Thank you

@@Mad-Max171 The baffle is in the cat in out. It's louder than the stock but less than the racing one.
