Try contour cameras instead. Much better mounting system and turn able so you can mount at any angle and rotate the inerds so the picture is level. Great riding and fun video! I can't believe you guys are out there banging around with all the pure dirt bikes! I've heard nothing but good about this new honda.

Roger that. I had a first gen also. the 2+ is awesome. Great job pounding through all those rocks BTW. Excellent video.

now that's a proper test for the bike !

It was my first desert 100 and I grew up less than 80 miles away.....never knew it existed.....best race since Barstow to Vegas back in the 80's

Love this video and the music! Reminds me of being a teenager and listening to punk music. That AT looks like a beast. Just when I think I don't need the weight I see a vid like this. Thanks for posting!

Awesome Video Cory! sick footage. looks like a blast!!!

Butch Duncan It's my favorite weekend of the year, good times are always had at the D100!

Very cool, my kind of desert racing. I like that high fender mount. Thanks for posting this :-)

Wow! 1000cc or not, all I see is an Africa Twin hanging with the dirt bikes and made it to the finish line and wasn't the last in place. That says a lot to me about this bike and an excellent rider no doubt.

Love the out-take reel. Nice video and looks like an awesome race.

Great vid! Awesome to see an AT put through the wringer... and see the crash damage accumulated along the way. 😉 Props to you and the bike for that performance. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing! That's great

As a huge The Offspring fan, before I click the video I thought it should be awesome to listen the offspring while riding. Then Bad Habit came out. Wow!

Thank you for putting your mechanical issues in the sort of bloopers at the end; I'm debating this bike for serious trail use and have been searching to see what breaks when.

Looks like a hell of fun! Great video, great bike and great ride. Go for it

Hell yes! If this falls during my time off next year, I'm in!

Superb riding my fellow African Twin

Awesome video! Love the blooper stuff.... you totally crushed that dude like a grape!

great riding Cory. Fantastic effort to finish that high

Nice video.Great music, keep on.

Honda should pay you for testing their bike so we'll. Great way to throw a 500 lb. bike around. Love the video.

Cheers for showing what the Africa twin is capable of. Good video

Awesome video, guys

Bash Plate! Awesome video

Nice work Cory on the 4th place finish! A rock blew a hole in my clutch cover around the 42 mile marker. Brutal terrain but I will be back next year, again, but this time lining up next to you in the Adventure class. Your videos are great!

Great riding on a big bike, not easy! Thumbs up!

This is badass. I would never think to race my ktm 1190 across the desert. I have a hard enough time finishing 75 milers on a dirtbike lol.

Never was a big fan of offspring.reminds me of something a rebellious 12 year old would rock out with.great riding though.I have a new appreciation for how heavy that bike is though after seeing what it takes to get it out of the mud.

Best Entertainment for some time. Mahalo

Great tunes. Subbed!

Amazing vid, can't believe you managed to stay on when the front wheel dug in and you just completely stopped, probably sore bollocks though! You can ride the shit out of that at, I bet 99% of owners will never do that on theirs, I certainly wouldn't! I'd have to have a very big wallet before I attempted that race on a £12k bike, kudos man, subbed as well

Great to see a bike like yours have a go at a race like that. Did you ever bend or brake the clutch rod that connects the clutch pedal to the engine? When I saw the bike for the first time that seemed like such a weak spot for adventure riding. Awesome race, would like to have a go at something like that one day.

@CamelADV

7 жыл бұрын

I haven't bend that rod. To be honest, I'm OK with having a "fuse" between the shift and vital tranny parts. Jam the shifter into a rock or stump and you'll bend the rod, hopefully saving the transmission internals from damage. I had to limp out a few times on my old F800gs after cranking the shifter on something. On that bike, push up too hard and you can bend the plate at the end of the shift shaft which keeps the bike from shifting out of 1st. The skinny AT rod hasn't been an issue for me yet. Time will tell.

Like the shortscreen..

Seems to me that racing an ADV bike in the desert in the first place is as dumber or dumber than forgetting to jump the side stand switch! I disabled the ones on the F800gs and the 1190R before I raced them but totally forgot to do this bike's.
