    Just recently stumbled across this great editing app for the iphone and i am super impressed and loive working with it. This is gonna be my favorite workstation and super practical for on the road editing.Love it!
    apps.apple.com...
    Final Cut Pro X
    For this Video and for all the videos i do at home, not being out with the bike i use Final Cut since for me it was the easiest to use program with a very intuitive Interface and cool colorgrading options.
    KineMaster on Iphone
    Here's the link to the IOS App:
    apps.apple.com....
    Using the Iphone allows me to cut all my videos and clips on the road without carrying the laptop which makes everything so much easier and it's fun with the app;)
    More about that and how i do stuff i will probably explain in future videos.
    Adventure Bikes that I like:
    Honda Transalp
    Honda Africa Twin
    Royal Enfield Himalayan
    BMW F800 GS
    Channels I watch right now that inspire me a lot:

    I've had s few of these engines,n they awl suffered from top end oil starvation,cams,valves needed replacing,once needed a rebore,as the engine seized,you are right they constantly need the oil topping up;I believe there is an oil filter screen that needs cleaning,in the feed oil feed pipe that goes from the front down tube,into the braided oil hose,that it is connected to,at the bottom of it,into the engine,I'd get the water cooled xr650r engine,n retro fit it into the dominator,the bike it should always have been,if possible,or a Transalp,they are reliable

    Another beautiful ride with you. Why may I ask has that town got so few people living there? Oh when I was reminiscing about my evil kick backing, leg destroying Honda XL500 I forgot to mention another trail, adventure bike I had for a couple of years, three I think it was. And that was my Honda Africa Twin 750,
    It wasn’t one of the latest ones it was the double round head lighted ones with that cool looking strip over the dashboard (I thought it was cool) lol. In reality it was just a digital clock and not many uses for it, it was so dim you couldn’t see it till it was dark.
    The main reason I got rid was I couldn’t get it to fit me. I had the saddle reupholstered in memory foam and had it thicker to try to help with the issue which was this.
    I’m 6ft 2inch and you needed all of that to mount the bike and tiptoe on the floor yet when I bought my legs up and feet on the pegs you needed to be about 5ft the distance meant my weight was on my backside and my knees to high and under strain. I couldn’t sort it.
    But anyway back to your great video well done and keep uploading Dave

      Oh, what a shame, but then again if I was in my 20s I might have a different outlook but I would need my beautiful wife of 44 years with me. The problem would have been keeping your children near you when they settled down and work would be a problem I guess. But what a place eh?

    @robson_mohr Před 2 lety

    Everywhere you went there were paid campsites and when they were full you kept looking until you found an available spot. In these places can not wild camp? I ask because I follow a channel of a friend who traveled by motorcycle in all the countries of America without ever having paid for a camping, they were all wild.

    • @MarcTravels
      @MarcTravels  Před 2 lety +1

      No wild camping is not allowed in many European countries to preserve nature. Very important especially in Iceland for example where flora is very fragile. Thanks for watching mate 🤙🏼

      Well, I finished watching all your videos.
      Many experiments and improvements - fantastic job man! you're becoming one of my favorite Moto Travelers on CZcams!
      couple thoughts - Insta360 on the bike makes barely watchable video. On the helmet pretty fine.
      you pick good music, sometimes feels like retro, I guess because of your bike, but for you. You look too young therefor I think Soundcloud ought to help you.
      Keep it up! Best wishes from Vietnam)))
