Trans American Trail Oregon Days 28-32 XR650L

FINALLY!! Oregon was amazing! A truly beautiful way to end and adventure I will never forget. Thank you for joining me on my adventure across America on Sam's Trans American Trial! I plan to post a couple more videos showing some of the gear I have been using. Van life: The goal is a Ford Transit extended, 10 KWH of batteries, and built by myself. It will house my fiancée and I.
Trans American Trail Idaho days 24-27 XR650L

Little bit of bike troubles, but I get it fixed up quickly enough and I'm on my way! Idaho was nice, a lot more farm roads, which meant I could pickup the pace a bit. I hope you enjoy my adventure!
Trans American Trail Utah Days 19-23 XR650L
zhlédnutí 27KPřed 4 lety
I didn't think it could get better than Colorado, but Utah has taken the cake! I was and am completely enthralled with Utah's beauty! Only 2 states to go, Idaho and Oregon. Thanks for keeping up with me and my adventures! I will create some review videos in the near future talking about the gear I brought and used. Thanks for watching!

Finally Colorado! I am quite proud with how this video came out, Colorado was really a treat after so much flatness and heat from the previous states. I can see why so many people want to move here, it is truly breathtaking in so many ways. I hope you enjoy my journey, as I most certainly did! Thanks for watching! Thank you bensound.com for some of the music used.
Trans American Trail Oklahoma Days 13-15 XR650L

A lot did not go to plan particularly on day 14. Even the GoPro was dead which is why the lack of riding footage. I didn't realize it turned itself on and drained the battery. Yes that was incredibly dumb of me not to check the oil more often. Theres just a lot going on, and a lot I need to do everyday. Checking the oil just slipped my mind since it has never burnt oil before.

These are my experiences on the TAT. Hope you like them! I complain quite a bit towards the end, it was a very hard day and I wanted to include that in the video. Some days on the TAT are much harder than others and that 97 degree heat was not helping the situation. Don't worry it will get better!
Trans American Trail TN & GA days 7-9 XR650L

These are my experiences on the TAT. Hope you like them! Editing, riding, recording, uploading, camping, and still working when I get a chance. Lots to do!
Trans American Trail North Carolina days 5-7
zhlédnutí 15KPřed 5 lety
I tried to upload this video a couple different times now, turns out rural America does not have the fastest uploads speeds. North Carolina was not all that different from Virginia, once I got out more towards western NC it started to turn to more farms with a lot of beautiful valleys. I am continuing through GA and TN in the next video, stay tuned! Thanks for watching

Starting out the trip getting to the trail from the train station, which ended up taking about a whole day. My first experience wild camping alone, and my first 2 full days on the trail. I'm working on the video production side of things day by day. Trying things out and seeing how they look. More drone footage to come once I get out of all these trees. I plan to make 1 video for every state, o...

Starting the TAT! This is a quick overview of my last day packing and getting ready to head out to the Amtrak auto train. Which will drop me off in Lorton VA, only about 160 miles from the TAT. I plan to make a video every 2 days of my adventures and upload it along the way!

Starting from Central Florida we made it to Prudhoe Bay Alaska then worked our way down to Seattle where we flew home and shipped the bikes home as well. 11,600 miles 37 days, 13 states and 2 providences.

Altitude your have that lean rich screw 🪛 if you don't re-jet you lose power no matter how much you lean out the mixture at the Rockies altitude.
Your bike is nice but your camera sucks.
Great job gentlemen..
Hey Eric. Young man I have watched your TAT videos over and over. They are very well put together, and i really enjoy them! I am 68 years old and setting out on the tat on Tuesday. Hope to make it to Utah and then back home to NC via the tat northern route. Thanks again for the pleasant and informative videos with no foul language! God bless. Ed.
Are you going solo on this trip ?
Yes, I did the whole thing solo. In fact I didn’t even meet anyone on the way lol
why was the stock speedo inaccurate? do they come like that from the factory or was there a change u made?
If I remember correctly it was like that from the factory. Wrong lol
Awesome video fellas. Best experience you can have in your younger years.
Thumbs up for the UCF shirt. Fellow rider from central florida.
One of the best adventure series i really enjoyed. Unfortunately , you left followers in the wilderness.
Beautiful bike
IMHO Colorado is the best place in the USA to ride a dirt bike. Hundreds of miles of single track motorcycles only trail.
Yes, but I would say Utah is the best place for an adventure bike! Longer stretches, higher speed.
Hell of a series and all the footage you were able to capture along your solo trip was epic. Enjoyed watching it -- straight to the point travel with not much filler. Well done
I just watched your entire TAT series. Awesome! Perfectly condensed.
Eric, your videos are terrific. Knowing what you know now, if you were to do it all over again, would you stick with the dual sport or go with an ADV for the longer road sections? I'm sure that dual sport was better for some of the rough trails.
Dual sport 100% you really aren’t on fast pavement often (60+). 250-300cc range would work perfect, I’d probably take a crf 300L if I went with a new bike for this trip. Definitely same luggage system too.
How many miles?
Just under 65,000! But also a 125,000 mile warrantee is included!
where is the part 4? great video
Bravo guys par excellence Travelog ! From my V-Strom, these bad boys are Tip-Happy, unless you're 6'2" + 34" inseam. Which few are ! I'm 5'9" & 30 inseam, have already dropped her once. Came close half a dozen times ! So I'm adding adjustable lowering links & will slide the forks to match. Maybe 2" lower will be perfect !
Looks awesome!!!! 🩷
And all this to go to the shops😮.
Sounds like wristpin and piston slap. ???????
Saludos de la Baja México bienvenidos
Nice
Suzuki V-Strom 650 - probably the best general multi purpose "middleweight" motorcycle that will ever be built. No unnecessary excessive high tech features so far yet on past to current versions of this bike. Understated looks and appearance, understated all round ability. And hugely customisable. Note to Suzuki - for next year's version, don't add anything new other than including the centre stand as standard (pun intended) on all V-Stroms. If it was good enough as standard equipment on the 1980s-1990s Honda CB600F, then it's definitely good enough to include it on the V-Strom 650.
It been two to three years since you posted any videos. I have to say that, in my opinion there have been NO videos as entertaining as the videos you put. Unbelievable that no one can speak as normal story telling events. Hope you are all doing well!
Thanks for the kind words! I’ve been living in a self converted cargo van for a year. It wasn’t the best lifestyle for me and my partner, so it was hard to record and be honest. But i’ve recorded a couple videos still of our last couple months. I hope to post those before the end of the year. Working to sell the campervan now so we can create a more stable life. And therefore create a lot more content!
Looks fun guys! My son just got a 650 and doing a xcountry from Cali - lower states to Florida up NY n back upper to Cali . Thx for sharing .
watching again with my moring coffee. love your shirt about "diversity". Any plans for more motorcycle adventures/videos?
Literally the absolute best motorcycle to take a long trip on a budget. Bombproof is an understatement.
After watching your videos, I got my motorcycle license last week and bought my first bike, a 2006 Suzuki VStrom DL1000
In 2018 I rode 2 up around the world on my 2nd gen 650 V strom. 43,000 miles and no issues. Awesome bike.
Could you have picked a shittier song? … probably but, damn
great job on video,,, questions,, 1. did you keep gearing stock, 15/45? 2. what size gas tank u have? 3. did u keep stock jets on carb? I live in Arkansas and planned on doing 5 to 10 day trips... but plan to do some trips in colorado and wondered how your jets in carb do. OH, nice shots of the stary sky... I do a lot of astronomy also.
Eric , I hope you start making videos again soon.
First LEGAL beer. I understand the clarification 😂. Great videos
Safe travels.
fun
nice
any plans to make more videos of motorcycle adventure? I really enjoy watching these sitting in my chair in Connecticut as I wait for winter to end to get out on my motorcycle. From one Eric who loves motorcycles to another. Keep it up.
man im so glad you dont have that shit battery on the back idk why everyone doesnt remove that shit battery
Following your journey to Alaska. Great series bro. Subbed! Next time y'all make it to Las Vegas, hit me up. I got a group that would love to ride with yall!
great adventure. I like the music you use in the background. Do you have plans for any more adventures and more videos like this soon?
I’m new to your channel so forgive me if this is available in another video but how are you mapping your way?
I love how u documented this trip. I was just starting to type this and ask how you got the footage of the two of you riding from overhead when the video showed you retrieving the drone. I still wonder how that works. So you send it up in the air and ride and it just hovers catching video????? I guess I am just an old guy 50+ years old with no drone experience. Do you have anymore big trips planned?
That drone actually had an autonomous mode and it will follow me automatically.
@@DaddyEric222 that is really cool. I just discovered your videos. I have enjoyed watching many of them. Do you still tour on your motorcycle? Do you have plans to make any more videos documented your travels? They are well done.
Great video! Can't wait to see the full video log. You also sealed the deal for me, I'm getting a V-Strom 650!
Pretty good vid , but the music sucks . I wanna hear the engine or your voice .
So Sweet!I have a 2023 coming in March or April.Can't wait!
Bahama village to Point Barrel 👉 👈 👇 🤔 👍
Pityt you didnt start the video with the presentation of the moto and the plan od the trip..That would have been a great intro. Great video thou
Great video and editing! Just stumbled onto your journey and loving what you guys did. Great experience that you will treasure. Thanks for sharing!
bruh i HAVE to do this one day.
You seem to have a frontfork brace you didn't mention. How do you like that one? Does it make a difference?
