The "Oh boy" at 18:20 couldn't describe Poker Flat on an ADV bike any better!

LOL! That phrase was uttered many times on that day.

I really enjoyed that. Good ride dudes I'm adding this to my list....

It was quite the trip. Definitely worth checking out!

See if the little Himalayan can keep up with the Norden 901 and Beta 430 RR-S in our group and check out some of the other great points of interest we explored during one of our scouting missions in the Lost Sierra. For the full ride guide to this off-road paradise, including maps and GPS tracks, go to www.advpulse.com/adv-news/lost-sierra-ride-guide/

That's some gnarly stuff! All worth it to get to all those amazing places. Wow.

Couldn't agree more!

Beginner rider with 2022 Himalayan. Will be doing this slowly and hopefully do a ride like that someday. Great video!

Dang...what an outstanding video! I'm very impressed you took the Himi up there and that it did that well, especially with those tires. You are a very good rider. Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed it. Too bad you couldn't have a fire. That would have been so sweet right by the lake. :)

Much obliged! The Shinko 705s are a fantastic tire, and though they were at their limits when trying to navigate up the steep, loose terrain above Gold Lake (I gladly accepted a shove from Rob and Mike 😅), they do well as long as you're not in anything too deep and loose. The biggest issue I had was arm pump/wrist fatigue, making it hard to modulate the poor performing brakes on the Himalayan, so going down that steep section into Poker Flat I was largely just clutch out/rolling with the punches haha

Fit semi metallic pads, I can get the front abs chirping on asphalt with 2 fingers on my himmi I'm running 705's as well, with heavy duty tubes at 32 psi rear and 23 front. Climbs like a goat

I wish! I 4-wheeled those roads many summers!! it's a side of CA few ever see, even local NorCal folks!@@ADVPulseVideos

I was exhausted just watching you guys.

This is very inspiring. That Himi rocks 👏👏👏🙌

Beautiful scenery, rough road, amazing the RE survived. I guess I should give it more credit. How long was the trip? Could gas up anywhere, or did you carry extra gas with you?

Yes indeed! This scouting trip was about 3 days. You can check out our complete ride guide of this area, with maps and GPS tracks (including gas stops) at the link in the video description above.

Nice ride! I did poker flat a few months ago in reverse of the way you guys went. All that rock coming out of poker flat was challenging to say the least but my KLR650 handled it pretty good. Definitely recommend strong tread for this one.

I like the Himalayan, but the highway cruise speed is what puts it in the no catagory for me. I need a klr650 with a 6 speed and cruise control. Somthing that can comfortably hold 80 and not be rung out on the highway while still being useful offroad.

The Himalayan will do 80 on the highway as long as there's no wind or hills. 😆Maybe check out the KTM 390 Adventure if you need a smaller bike that can cruise comfortably at 80mph.

Upcoming Himalayan 450?

@PupuTheMonkey

There aren't enough middle weight bikes. The T7 or transalp are about it. Maybe a modded DR650 or maybe a CB500X.

Please tell me you didn’t say “The Los Sierra.” Do you also visit the Big Rio Grande River?

Any update on the new Himalyan 450?
