Gas Gas ES700 Review | Absolute Carnage!!
Vložit
- čas přidán 14. 09. 2023
- I've tried all sorts of enduro and adventure motorcycles over the years and the Gas Gas ES700 could be the perfect real world trail ridding motorcycle!
Its light, fast but also has decent road manors and mile munching ability, while keeping the essential lightweight handing which makes a good off-road machine!

Appreciate the risks your 360 camera took in the making of this entertainment.
That horrible realization when you have taken a route that is really difficult and you have gone too far, and/or can't turn the bike around so the only option is to keep going...the relief when you finally get back to something resembling a real road! Great review.
Had that happen when I decided to go ‘off road’ across south Wales to Fishguard on my way to Eireland. Got to the top of a ‘mountain’ cloud dropped within minutes and I was greyed-out! Had to chase sheep through the mist and bogs back to ‘civilisation’ - a white-painted farmhouse in the distance.
On the other side, marshalling on the ISDE and watching the pros launch through a farm gate and land halfway down a steep muddy field then slide sideways to exit the field from another open gate was a marvel to behold.
I ended up once in something similar to Chopsy on my S1000XR. I know now why BMW changed it from the Adventure to the Sports category in the catalog.
Tell me about it! 😄👍
Such a bad feeling. Never had it on an MX or dual sport, but certainly felt it on my GSA and Tiger 900 RP.
Love the way you “ deliberately” took a tumble to show us the Akra can Chops! Nicely done👍
Can see it better from that angle 😄👍
Smashed my 690 Enduro R, thank God I didn't cheap out on gear, Klim adventure pants are in pieces but my ass (and knees) are in one.
Careful out there boys.
That was great fun to watch Chopsy! Bike seemed to have handled the spill with no issues. Great little machine!
Love it Chops ❤
Your reviews are pure entertainment. 😊👌
Well you definitely had a knee down !. Great video Chops , I’m sure this type of machine will be popular with the off on road younger riders who go and explore. It’s got loud styling and bright colours.
Chopsy, this is one of the funniest videos out there, you're a star for putting this out, thank you for your personality & subsequent laughs!
Thanks very much 😄👍
Oh, you are very welcome, just when I thought that it couldn't get funnier you get swamped by midges! You should sell this video to Ricky Gervais, honestly. I'm stuck in a hotel in Anchorage, the other side of the world from my family & this video has kept me chuckling all day! Thank you.@@LambChopRides
8:02 “I’ve fallen foul of big ruts before, woooaaaaaahhhhrrrrgggg” 😂😂👌🏻
Haha I know! Timing is everything 😄👍
@@LambChopRides honestly mate your banter is superb, that video had me belly laughing all the way with your one liners 😂👌🏼 keep them coming…
Love it! Cracking vid Chops 👌
The 360 survived. :)
Yes, up here many of the routes I used in the past are closed.
It's perhaps why I see loads of the supermoto version of this bike, hardly any of this one.
Great review as always.
A great review full of action and comedy 😂
Legend 👍
Fantastic vid as always Mr chops
Thanks Michael 👍
Nice one Chopsy, been looking around for a go-anywhere tourer so will take one for a demo run,
The midges are evolving. They set up a road block to trap their prey! You had me in stitches. Thank you for making great content!
Haha thanks mate 👍
Absolutely brilliant. I was chuckling all the way through that. Your pain for our entertainment Chops. You’re a legend pal 😂
Haha thanks Paul 👍
I bet the truck and the van are still trying to work out how to pass each other! Great review!
I have to say Chopsy you’re selling the green laning world to us! 😂😂
Haha 😄 👍
Get into Wales for some lanes Chopsy, absolutely brilliant and you get left alone! Loving that GasGas !
I rode a CCM 560 MX bike converted to road legal to work (80 miles) and loved slicing thru traffic on it like a hot knife thru butter! Bars were high enough to clear car mirrors with ease, plastic was more forgiving of damage than expensive metal or ABS fairings, 300mm of ground clearance could manage any pothole London streets could throw at it!😊
You can’t beat a bit of Off road Chops ! Fooking hilarious, Yet informative 😂😂😂 cheers big man 👊
Glad you enjoyed it 😁👍
LOL Chopsy there were a number of laugh out loud moments in this video like always, you are hilarious mate.
Great vid Chops, this is very entertaining but has done nothing for any ambition I may have had to go off road. Fun watching you though lol.
The bike is a great machine for the 50/50 rider , good basic bikes are difficult to buy these days especially for the purchase price thanks Chops ride safe
Best review yet Chopsy, you worked so hard you had a little lie down and the midge attack had me PMSL 😂 I'm a wagon driver and I think I might have chosen a better route than that but the van was not very helpful at all like you said. Shame all the green lanes and byways are disappearing they should definitely keep them open
This was pure comedy. Especially the swarm of flies following you. 😂😂.
Laid up in bed with a bad back this morning this really cheered me up. Youve overtaken the Missenden Flyer as my go to CZcams bike channel now. He needs more comedy and to start falling off a bit like you to keep us entertained like you do.😂 Oh and Andy's gone AWOL again this morning! Keep up the good work Chopsie
Thanks Paul 😁👍hope the back improves for you 👍
Interesting new approach to showing us “around the bike” with it laying on its side 😆👍!
Yeah haha 😄 👍
Were are wombble , and Greg in the time of Great laughter,,😞😞 another great video 👍👍👍 ☘️☘️☘️☘️ from northern Ireland
Great video and comedy gold!
Nice one Chopsy 😁 good to see you offroading again .... Never easy lifting a bike up off-road !!! Like lifting a mate off the ground that's well pissed.😀😀😀 a usual day in the countryside there , ate with midges , moaned at my dogwalkers , cars and vans clogging the place up 😁😁😁 especially midges in your Helmet 😁😁😁👍
Haha was an eventful ride! 😄👍
Love the bugs. I'm glad you keep it real Chops.
And I thought we had a shit ton of bugs here in the Southeast US! 😅
Finally! I have been waiting for this one, YAAAY! The WP XPLOR suspension is more than decent, it is actually very good suspension, so suspension is not something that they have "cheaped out" on with these bikes. I have the WP Xplor Pro suspension on my Husaberg FE 501 Enduro, it is race spec.
I have to ride about 70 minutes highway to get to the nice offroad places where I live, and while it still sucks riding a bike like this on the highway especially if you are 200cm tall, it is perfectly doable. The engine is doing fine on the highway at 60-80 mph (100-130km/h) like mentioned in the video, it is just that you are sitting very high up and you get a lot of fatigue from the windblasts.
The GASGAS ES700 is like my 690 ENDURO R 146 KG DRY, so with a smaller slip-on which removes the catalytic converter and basically makes it a full system made at least my bike weigh 156 kg fully fuelled when we put it on the old scale. Almost 100 KG lighter than the V-strom you rode with Greg against the Africa Twin, that is a big weight difference.
Back to Enduro school for you old man And after that we want to see you and ole Greg ride the Desert X comparing it to the KTM 890 Adventure on some on and off road shenanigans!
PS. Did you mean TET ? The Trans European Trail ? It runs through Sweden where I live and goes through whole Europe and even up to you guys in the UK.
Yeah that's it the TET, thanks buddy 👍
Have the 701 but really like the Gas Gas color and graphics.
Cracked me up this vlog 😂
The 690 enduro is my fantasy 3rd bike.
Pure gold Chopsy 😂👏🏼🍻
Haha thanks 😄👍
Oh chopsy, you crack me up! We're gonna have some fun Tuesday, I can sense it 🤣🤣
Haha its going to be fun! 😄👍
👍thumb up chops,
You will soon be doing the dakar rally chopsy very entertaining as usual
As an owner of a Husky 701 I can honestly say these bikes do not need re-mapping nor do I agree with Chopsy’s comment that they’re not any good for touring the country. People use these bikes for travelling the world never mind just the country. 👍
Is yours remapped or power commander? If not then you don't know what your missing
@@LambChopRides No, not remapped, the engine performance is standard. I've got an Akro on it but I've no idea whether that gives me an extra couple of HP or not. However I've got a Husqvarna FE350 as well and that will leave the 701 standing especially on the trails. Now that is an animal! 😳
Great video chops have you put up the 2nd part of your Spanish off road trip yet ? Keep up the great vids 👍
No not yet, will do very soon!
Very good job on the video
Thank you very much! 👍
Midges in my helmet!! Queue the Benny Hill music. Great entertainment Chopsy.
Ah the joys of UK laneing 🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟🦟 😂 Love the red 👍👍
I'm not a fan of the off road bikes but I've just sat and watched this and it's pure comedy gold 🤣 😆
Haha 😄👍
TET trans European trail 👍🏼 great to see you back on the dirt mate it's pretty much all I do now 👍🏼
Yeah that's the one Bob 👍
number one accessory for this bike is the comfort seat essential if youre doing any distance...!
Chopsy book yourself onto a day at Mick Extances in Wales, it a fantastic off road day in some wild welsh countryside.
Haha love your vids Chopsy 😂
Great video great bike but not enough places to ride where I live, I’ll stick to my Sur-Ron for my stealth forest,field work 👍
That was…entertaining 😂 thanks.
I thought you were going to do the walk round talk when it was on its side 👍
Haha I thought about it 😄👍
Put in a 7000 mile tour on the 701 last year (TAT). A true lightweight ADV bike.
The weekly occurance of chops ending up on the floor in a pile. 😂😂😂
Haha, getting to be a regular occurrence!! 😄👍
I’m sure you dropped anther gas gas in that same spot a while ago 😅😂😂 cracking vlog mate!
Yeah I did! Got me twice there now! 😄👍
Well choppsie after the week I have had full new hip and you have just made laugh which didn't think i could do at the moment, so thanks for that mate, and bye the way i know it's a gasgas but ktm have just got away of setting suspension up not like Japanese manufacturers just throw anything on and hope it works. Ride safe mate.
Good to hear it made you chuckle buddy 👍
Fair play mate… I’m like a duck on rollerscates on an off-road bike. Nice bit of kit though ain’t it. Keep ‘em comin’ 👍
Haha me too!
My god the sound effects were hilarious, heavy breathing, ooooo ruts everywhere, ahhhhhh f@@k 😂 brilliant! Now midgies 😂
Takes me back to when a bought a new DRZ400 to commute to work
But I couldn’t help but go laning on it and doing wheelies and practicing supermoto slides on it
As you can imagine it ended up on the floor many times but it was so durable you could just pick it up and off you went again
You could try getting on the pegs a bit more often, it gives you more controll and frees up the bike to move with the obstacles. I was quite often dropping the bike when I starten ridning Enduro 11 years ago but that phase will eventually end, you just need to put in the hours…, keep it up,,,, cheers!
Always entertaining lol
I love this type of bike it's an all-rounder. A mototard set of wheels and tyres I think you would use it 90% of the time. it's a great commuter, a Sunday ripper with your mates and a spot-on green laner. do we really need a 200BHP bike? Just been for a rip around Cheshire on my mate xj600 on a + b roads fantastic fun, a lot of work. then came home on my Tiger Sport 1050. the tourer is easier to ride. I understand why you have both. enjoyed that well done.
That was fun
Nice conevalve forks
Hello, I notice the heel guards on this bike. What brand are they. Thanks
Ahhhhh, yes ... the joys of off roading. You can keep it.
Your doing good for 72 mate
Haha 😄👍
That reminded me of a carry on film another great review had everything , I'm starting to watch chops for the laughs now not the bikes
Haha good 😄👍
When I was young, a lot of people rode the dirt roads in my village on MC machines (illegal, but nobody cared, we also had 4 dead in 5 years, colliding with a rope, a barbed wire fence, a cyclist and an agricultural tractor) Belgium was world leading in MC at that time. Maybe silent electric dirtbikes will bring this back someday.
the tet trans euro trail 😁
Always watch yr content hows the kawasaki going
Front suspension U upgrade...its a big difference?
What do you think of the seat height? I bought one not knowing it's one inch taller than the KTM. Now I wished I went the KTM route.
Never quite understand why KTM insists on marketing the same bike under 3 different liveries.I have owned 3 x 690's and they are wonderful off rd bikes.Cheers
Great view on green lane riding. Now reall bit pointless so much is restricted or made out to be by signs taken out. I have a beta 300rr ace bike but as you say comprised for road. Plus tyres are everything off road chalk in the wet like ice. Don't forget tractors and horses can still use them. 200 kg adventure bike 😂 more like 240 plus with fuel.
Personally should may be only use byways say 6 until midday on a Sunday and a say Tuesday.
Where can you ride onroad in the UK these days? The roads I know are full of holes, ruts, bumps, jumps and gravel. Is it any wonder people are turning to adventure bikes and suvs.
Hello Lambchops, I have a quick Q relating to previous video on 690 SM to ask you:
The remap on your pals bike & your own PC5 - do you know roughly what mpg you got after please? (I have 690 and am considering Rade aux tank but if need a remap after, wonder if that will consume the extra capacity due to lower mpg).
Thanks. Saving this to watch later..
Yes it uses 10 - 15% more fuel now I would guess..
@@LambChopRides Thank you 👍
Well that was interesting ! 😂
Chopsie in the foliage!😂
Oh I Dooo like a good rutting🤣
Great vid, and I agree no one wants bugs in their helmet 😂😂😂
Haha absolutely!! 😄👍
"It's alright love don't worry, I'm not gonna run your rats over!" hahahahaaaa, thank you Chopsy 😂😂😂
You could do with the strimmer accessory.
It's crazy how comfortable and seamless you look riding on the streets, and how completely out of your element you look on the trails 😅
I've ridden dirt and trails since a child, no motocross or anything serious, plenty of full bore motocross bikes though (bought my first CR250R at 11yrs old, first "big" bike, not first bike), so I'm the opposite of you, super comfortable off-road, plenty of street experience with my last trio of bikes being the CBRXX Super Blackbird and a pair of CB750's(one single, one dual cam), but I'm nowhere near as proficient on the streets as yourself....all I can say is, balls of your feet for dirt, not your arches, and relax, let the bike and it's architecture do the work.
Do you know what fork internals your bike has got? Those red fork caps look non standard
I'm pretty sure it's stock.. I will check with Gas Gas however 👍
Ps I've gone back to mountain biking where I live in Cotswolds most of the restricted byways would be fine all year use. As rocky type Roman road type or just a track across middle of farmers field crops not live stock. I think horses do more damage than bikes . But I the case of uk a lot on people just don't like off road green lanes . We have to many London set here which doesn't help.
As for Salisbury plain last three time we went army had red flags up so many of the byways shut which really limits you tracks.
As for the gravel roads are just boring.
As a comfy seat to fit 2 on it?
get pipe and ECU tune .. fun fun funn.
Great fun ...you made me laugh...not really for me tho..can see why its recommend ed to go with a mate to help just in case...keep the vids coming Chopsy 😂
So, you like your KrapTM red!
Chops get on the power to avoid dropping the bike .
I wouldn't say no to the Gasgas SM 700. Cast wheels, but they look like spoke wheels. Anyway, you're not talking about the SM. 8:10 That off sounded quite painful. I bet you scratched the bike, as well. You'd think the speedo could incorporate a basic rev counter. You are better offroad than I am, mate. Nick J [NJ]
That barbed wire is very worrying, i would also be worrying about the 280,000 volts in those power cables just above your head due to the height of the hill
Bug free Helmet 😂
The lane at 13.30 only said no cars not bikes 👌
A real adventure bike. Too many heavy cruising bikes maskerading as offroaders out there.
Great video ,👍off road biking is no good in this country
I like getting a little root too.
How many miles have you covered on your 690 now chops?
About 3500, hardly anything! 😫
Should do a 5000 mile review when you reach it. Try get a sumo video in before the weather breaks!
Yeah good idea 👍
My only complaint is that it's 4 stroke, but that's just me. Great topple there Chops, you really showed us a deep dive into green laning.
Yep, definitely just you! 🤣🤣
2 stroke would be good but it wouldn't be a 50/50 bike anymore tbh.
Haha 👏👏😁👍
@@R-S-X Yeah I didn't think of that good point.
Do you use the GoPro on your helmet cam chopsy?
Yes indeed Ollie 👍
@@LambChopRides I was riding an enduro last weekend and my go pro 9 black kept turning off. I think it was due to the heat so I'm looking for fixes or a better camera that can deal with temps when they are 20-25°C!
