''Motorcycle stories can be the most interesting stories, and the second you throw a leg over one, you begin writing that story'' Loved that! 😍

You spotted it too. Just pure romance eh. Mustang Valley to 4000m, Nepal was a that story for me in my 2nd yr of riding ever at 62! Thru the islands of Philippines was great too with lots of fruit!

Exactly. When people ask "What is it about motorbikes?" That is pretty much the answer if not, a large part of it.

That's true motorcycles stories are very sweet to narrate.

Was awesome to meet you and see that i made it to your adventure @ the 13-minute mark. i was pissed with myself that i didnt have my phone on me to get a selfie with you so the mates (Anthony & dave) i was riding with believed me. but now that it's on this vid i have been able to prove it happened. Great meeting you Thanks

Grabbo is really showing the capability of that Norden. Doesn’t really need a track, just a heading. That campfire discussion was on point lads.

Adam, a major part of the worlds bike population just bought a ticket to Australia... They can't wait to greet Bob and Marge. Thanks for the ride along.

I’m addicted to Grabbo’s laugh. It’s part cheeky little boy, part wolf creek, and fully legend 😎🇦🇺👍

What an incredible half hour. Thanks for sharing this adventure in what can only be described as a first class production, with amazing cast and scenery to boot. You guys are legends.

There's never gona we be such ADV motorcycles era like the 90's... pure raw motorcycling, no fancy tech. No laptop on wheels.

Love these videos about the Warhorse....In July we did a tour from England to Ireland, I was on my ZZR1400 and I saw a XRV 750 Africa Twin for sale on the first day in Wales on the way through to the ferry, these videos sprang to mind so I bought it and left it at the Air BnB till I could collect it when I got back from Ireland.....just hope my Mrs doesn't meet you, she was fuming 😂

Well told and beautifully shot series Adam . Grabbo's laugh is bloody infectious😂

Adam, glad you made it to a clean spot for "open heart surgery' as you say. What an incredible trip mate. This drop really puts the campfire chat into perspective. Trusting the bike, trusting old technology to solve tricky problems quickly and "easily", and using all the horsepower you need and not letting all the horsepower of a present day bike use you! Once again, what an incredible trip and thanks for another great Motology offering. I love seeing 750+ cc bikes with soft luggage!

I can't believe the warhoarse is stock. What a beast! . The light touch on the key amd she fires up so beautulky! Just think. Not so long ago she was sitting in a barn.. thinking. This is it.. It's s over.. and you come along. ..

24:27 i really feel the pleasue Mr Rieman has when he is summoning the warhorse for the next episode of the life she was build for. Firing up an old school bike with carbs, good battery and functioning ignition is like silk wrapping around you and flattering you and make you forget all the hardship of past and future.

You capture the ESSENCE of adventure riding!!!!!!!! Totally INSPIRING!!!

What a journey, what a ride, what a time. Love those old Africa Twins, always ignite that passion in me for riding. Times are challenging now, but there will always be a ride in the future. Cheers!

You are amazing, no traction control, no abs, no cruise control, no hill descent control and you make it look so easy, one day I hope to ride my Africa Twin + wine into the unknown like you 🤣🤣🤣🤣, thanks...

I love how old mate Trev came up for a chat when you were refueling . You and Grabbo are a great team. More adventures from you guys would be great. Love ya work Ad. 😎

You are exactly right in your comments on how they are marketing adventure bikes. I just bought a 1993 supertenere and I'm taking it up in the hills where it belongs. It's surprisingly capable and it's simple, pleasurable bike to ride.

So awesome. Living The Dream!!! I do this stuff on the weekends here in Arizona. If you ever come to the states, reach out. I got 2 XR650R's....AZ will blow your mind. Keep up the good work!

When it’s an Adam Adventure, that’s epic on its own. Add a legendary mate to the mix and head off into Australias toughest & most spectacular outback…unreal! Adam, you are a storyteller & cinematographer that truly shows the soul of adventure riding. Thank you for sharing…gold! 😁🙏🏁🏍🏍💨

Bob and Marge are putting in the WORK

In my opinion the nearest answer to your question at 16:40 is none other than the Warhorse's descendant - the modern Africa Twin. No impressive power figures. Suspension is not sporty stiff. Maintenance intervals are long and of course, Honda reliability :) That's why it's my dream bike and it's inspired by you and the Warhorse's adventures of course!

This is the man’s core adventure in entire life. I will be doing that soon. Salute u brother. True adventure never ends.

Warhorse she is a beauty ! ♥ Trustfull, strong and a heck of a piece of a Japanese enduro motorcycle.... I ride her little light sister, the Honda Dominator 650ccm RD02. 32 years old from 1991 and only 168 kg wet ...single piston, twin exhaust....fixed her this summer with a set of brand new headpipes and silencers in high-quality stainless steel, did a engine renovation and gave her a new piston....Uhm! she runs like a dream now...My Thunderwomen! Great to see motorbike riders like you Adam letting a good old African Twin shine again as the bright star she is...thank you for another great video !

No detailed itinerary, just fuel her up and point it in the right direction and the adventure will write itself….. love it!

Gorgeously shot. What a pleasure to see the spirit of the ride with a friend.

Ya gotta get Grabbo back on some more rides and vid’s - He’s an Aussie Off-road legend and he’s always having a laugh

This is the " True Core " of what adventure motorcycling is all about. Adam..... You & Grabham are the real deal. So glad you are sharing this adventure. Love your videos brother!!!.Keep them coming........ I have a notion that the motorcycle manufactures will be listening & watching your videos for some future R&D👌👌

Most enjoyable to follow this ride thro' Oz, so good to see someone else riding an old bike doing what it was built for. Mine is a 30year old carb Tiger which just needs finishing touches before it goes for the roadworthy test here in Germany.

Adam, I love your work. The reflection on the marketing of motorcycles is great, I agree 100%. It's a shame I can't give my xrv 750 the same adventures, I hope it lived them in the 30 years it wasn't with me. Greetings from Galicia, Spain

i love this nasty laugh of Grabham.... cool to see both of you riding side to side :) greetings from Germany

Adam, Absolutely awe inspiring footage and story telling. There is definitely something special about the outback which just keeps drawing you back to it. Watching you and Grabbo blasting along the tracks (if my eyes saw right at near warp speed) had my heart in my mouth. Oh to be able to ride with such confidence and style. Keep up the grat work

Grabo what a terrific bloke every time I hear his infectious laugh it cracks me up, fantastic adventure thanks for sharing.

Im not one to become emotional quickly but these warhorse videos do something with me. Its truly inspiring. Always loved the africa twins, time to find me my own "warhorse" and make my own adventure happen! Cheers from the Netherlands❤

One again I've renewed my love for my Africa Twin RD04... a real warhorse like Adam's. Absolutly fantastic job Adam!!!! Greetings from Porugal

Another performance of Linguistic excellence! (Meaning) hinges on the mastery not only of basic vocabulary but also the specialized terminology and differences in intonation that can completely alter a word or phrase's meaning. The editing combined with the narration is just relaxing and joy to watch. Thanks Mate!

These episodes with Ben have been incredible. Love to see the camaraderie between you two through the miles. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us Adam and Ben.

wooow beautiful scenery, good bike and great friend.. what more do we expect?

if this was 3 hours i would have watched all of it in a heart beat i just love your videos man

Y'all hit the nail on the head with the discussion of ADV marketing. I live in Ohio near Cleveland in the US and must ride about two hours before i can ride a gravel road. Almost everything is paved or gravel in the US or restricted to motor vehicles. As i began traveling more on my old KTM 390 i began to realize that a sport touring bike would be a better fit than an ADV bike for my area. Great videos! I have become a better rider from watching them! Thank you!!!

Epic! I can’t wait to come ride that land mass called Australia . Thanks again for a good watch! Cheers

Hey there Adam I’ve been fallowing your channel for a few years bud and I can honestly say with all your riding training you have been passing to the masses of adventure riders and now with you taking us along on your travels around the world I just want to say thank you!!! The warhorse was never available in Canada but I sure wanted one , I live in British Columbia Canada and we have some amazing riding here also ! I know your travels have taken you all over the world so hoping one day you find your way across the big pond to BC for an adventure in Canada cheer mate your doing a great thing for the every man adventure rider around the world thanks again bud , travel to Canada for an adventure !

That wire gate at the cattle grid was a 10 cent 5 cent moment. Phew!!

What amazes me is the way how you two seemed to have your bikes surgically connected to you, you make it look so effortless. Another amazing film, with just a small Bob and Marge cameo to keep me chuckling.

I was just watched one older video than saw at the end, that thumbnail, with the same title :D I was like, hell yeah, the story rolls on !! thanks for all your content Adam! you inspired me to buy an adv bike! Saying hi, from Hungary

Carry that long lens in the backpack, yeah? Excellent storytelling and yeah DR650! Woot!

Awesome series of the War Horse and your epic journey. I’m riding RD07 from 96 and smiling every day🙂 stay safe and enjoy🍻 regards from Denmark🇩🇰

Thanks for sharing this adventure with us. The terrain reminds me of the western US, my home country. Also, I’m sure the Husky is a nice bike, but for me that AT is the bomb. I had a chance to buy a used 90s version when I lived in Ethiopia but let it get away; I’m still sorry I didn’t bring it home with me. Also, thanks for taking the time to get the drone and static shots.

Love it Adam. Inspiring as all hell and what beautiful country we have. To share that adventure with a good mate and ride like you have no care in the world. So jealous of your adventure and envious of your skill and ability. Waiting for the next part of the journey.

Just at the right time. Nice Adam. My dinner entertainment is sorted now. Edit: You both are absolute badasss, 140s in the dirt, pure skill. I enjoyed the whole series, that shot at 20:20, the amazing backdrop, and 2 guys just sending it in the dirt.

An amazing series!!! You do everything to perfection from your bike build to the editing of your footage. Also watched your other videos about basic bike maintenance and you explain things in simple logical common sense steps. Also your comments on marketing of modern adventure bikes being off the mark is very true. Thanks!

Start watching film, Warhorse pt 3 drops, stop film & watch Warhorse instead. Keep up the great content, it’s getting me through my injuries sustained in the Sahara, I’ll be back at it soon.

Love watching the landscape of the outback . Amazing journey for yourself and the warhorse . The Conversation around the camp fire about the marketing of the adventure bikes got me thinking too …. We should all know that they are so much capable of long journeys across the world , more manufacturers are getting the message across that in the right hands these bikes are more capable than what most enduro riders think they can do . We all support the under dogs and to see a mid weight bike amongst the fast enduro bikes holding there own is an amazing sight . Great to see the new and old adv bikes in this episode riding together in tandem . 👏👌

Grabbo's laugh is the best! Amazing cinematography!!!

Your face starting the bike at 18:00 is everything you need to feel with your bike

Love the old Honda's, I have a 93 nx 650 awesome bike just keeps going

I have one from 1995. RD07. In green. 2nd owner. Bought from my brother back then. And since 2020 I've been driving a new AF Adventure Sports ES DCT. I've always driven Hondas. Never had any problems. The RD07 is a beautiful motorcycle. But has never seen hard terrain. Street and dirt roads. Not more. It would be a shame to drive it off-road with it. Only about 66'/67' kilometers down. With the new one I've already got 12' down. Haven't had any problems yet either. You should take one of these with you on tour. Without switching gears is really good. An old and a new AF. That would be cool. Greetings from Germany👍

A true to heart Adventure nomad❤ , that klim backpack just keeps on sliding over the left shoulder 😮

Superlatives couldn't do justice to how much I enjoy your adventures so...Thank You Adam!!

And here comes the best content on KZread🤙🏼

Why am I more interested in getting a roadworthy off-road bike and not a road bike? I've never been on a road bike and I've not been on a motorbike in nearly 40 years. Watching these videos is reminding me of the fun of my youth. Back to browsing adds. Just love the rumble of that twin, even I am smiling at that.

Awesome man glad the old girl made it. Currently looking at a 94 tenere, low kms can’t beat the classics

Just goes to show what a great rider can do on any bike. A real credit to you both just look at the number of views! Can’t wait till the next episode they really are a pleasure to watch. Thank you for doing what you do.

Good to know I’m not the only one with squeaky astar boots.

Just found your channel. These are among the best videos I have ever seen on KZread. Sublime 🎉

You make a great point halfway in about the spec sheet wars. And showing us all that a bike with what, 60hp?, is doing everything you ask of it. Good stuff. Like the old race engineer would say, simplify and add lightness.

For a while now I'm looking around for a second bike and your videos realy make me want to get the old gal and dance around on her. There is something about the idea of getting a motorcycle from the year I was born and boy are there some amazing options from early 90s! Africa twin, its older brother the Transalp 600, greatest dakar rival- Super Tenere to name a few.

Hi Adam, what a great series this is! Watched all of your videos but this one really hits the spot for me as someone who has been into and riding bikes for 40 years. I still have a passion for motorcycle touring and your videos inspire me to keep doing it even as I get older! Great stuff! And thank you.

You got a knack for story telling thats for sure - sensational!

Another awesome video! Thanks Adam! I’m curious why you guys were running tubes on the Norden? It comes with tubeless tires… I can understand bringing a tube as back up on remote rides, but wondered if there was another reason? I recently replaced my ‘06 950 Adv with a new Norden Expedition and have been looking forward to hearing you take on it after your proper ride… I’m loving mine so far… REALLY glad I got the Expedition… the suspension is super impressive… Cheers!

Thanks! Actually to both of you, what a trip. And nicer with a friend along with you. Lovely photos, well told.

Australia has to be Wonderland for ADV touring, especially the kind you do. It's so nice to follow your trips and dream about following you.

Man, what a ride! It's a sunny weekend and literally perfect weather for going out for a long ride and clear out the head. Unfortunately family commitments leave no chance for today. Cheers to warhorse, friendship and the open acres in Australia.

Sitting in wet Ireland 🇮🇪 watching 2 aussie guys ripping through the outback and I'm thinking ' these guys are real motocross riders having fun" Thanks guys for sharing The Magic 🎩 of The Outback on two wheels.

Bob and Marge - they are everywhere☹️. Another fabulous journey that epitomizes the adventure.

Love the chat around the fire Never a truer word spoken Got cheesed off with all the talk from manufacturers about BHP, Top speed etc etc Just give us here in the UK an affordable bike that can do the job Ride safe and keep making these videos

Again Goosebumps! Awesome pictures with 2 awesome bikes&riders!

Excellent footage, comentry and interaction, true adventure. The marketing around adventure bikes is similar to what it was in the 90s with sports bikes backing into corners, knee down, wheelies on corner exits, same old, same old, give us your money and we will give you a god machine, or at least a dream.

Beautiful. If you ride you get it. Thanks Adam!

Another chapter in the Warhorse book. Thanks for taking us along and good to see Grabbo out as well.

The Flinders is just such an awesome place. Been going there for over 50 years now and never tire of it. Can't imagine how long it takes you to edit these short films. Nice work, again...👍👍Thanks

Wow! You have a gift my friend. Beautiful photography and a story as well. Simply the best! I can't wait for the next adventure. Best!

This whole series has just been poetry in motion to watch. I look forward to the next one.

What an incredible adventure seeing those shots of the big sky country just give me goose bumps, though I do feel truly blessed to be living in Tas where my partner & I can be on a back roads explore on dirt roads that feel like your in the middle of nowhere & only be 30k's from home. looking forward to the next installment Cheers Adam

Simply what Adventure is. Thanx so much! 👊🙂👍

Am really loving every bit of this videos, educating,fun

BESIDES THE AMAZING FOOTAGE THAT IVE BECOME ATTACHED TO. A COUPLE FRAMES GOT ME. 20.00 TO 20.20 THE DUSTY CORNER AT SPEED. TWO GUYS LOVING KICKING UP DUST. WHAT A SHOT . THEN ORVER TAKING BOB AND MARG JUST TO WATCH THEM COME CREEPING BY AT GRABBOS FLAT TIRE. LOVED IT. AS ALWAYS LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT SESSION. THE JOURNEY HOME.

the one is working, the other one has a red wine - love it

Came across your channel by complete coincidence, man im i glad i did. AWESOME STUFF you gained a life long supporter . I've already watched all your videos and can't wait for the next one. If my wife dosen't divorced me because of lack of attention i will have a tv to keep watching 😅 you are a legend, thank you for everything god bless you Sr

at 20.33 that would have been a great ending to the video, that was rather majestic you both side by side coming a long the road and around the bend with the dust blowing up and out then across the camera, another spectacular video, thanks Adam

adam i just returned yesterday from a 5 months long enduro jurne with my girlfriend (2 bikes of course 😂) trough greece turkey and bulgaria, and you made us wana leave again today haha. awesome 👏

I appreciate that in the same day as Pol Tarres releases his latest "doing crazy shit on a T7" video, you put out a video showing not only what the majority of people will do with an ADV bike, but even point out that the companies are showing the bikes in a way that basically nobody will use them. No disrespect to Pol the guy is a legend, and as cool as their videos look, a video like this will do far more to sell me on a bike than The Seeker series will.

You capture that adventure spirit really well. It's a pleasure to watch your channel. And learn to take the good things and the not so good things, like dirty petrol, close gates or flat tyres with an open mind. As you saif about an open mind: You can't plan adventures in advance. Cheerio, Günter/Nürnberg

Man I love these videos , I think anyone who has had an old Africa Twin can instantly relate to the relationship that grows with them. I absolutely loved mine and have always regretted selling it. I now have a Tenere 700 and in modern terms I feel it’s the closest thing to the old Twin

Same here. Why I ever sold mine is still a mystery to me.

What you guys are doing out there, there are only few people can do. I could not make it 2 miles into a wilderness out there. You are leaving a dream only few of us could. Thank you for sharing this and inspiring others.

@16:00 guilty as charged. I bought a T7 last year mainly because of Pol Tarres and his "The Seeker" series. With little to no offroad skills I was thinking that I could conquer the great forest "outback" of eastern Europe with a 200kg adventure bike and the skills of a first grader riding a mountain bike down a mildly steep hill. Lo and behold I ate more dirt, mud and tree branches over the 13k km I put on that bike than a porcupine in heat. I'm quite amazed I did not break anything or got seriously injured. Sold it about a month ago, bought a second hand CRF300L and the difference, for a novice like me, is night and day. I'm more confident, better at tackling steeper terrain and overall a much better rider on a low powered and lighter dual sport than on a fully kitted out adventure bike. Should've listened to people who told me that starting my off road adventures with a T7 is a bad idea... I guess you live and learn, and most importantly, listen to others that already made the same mistakes you're going to make.

Being a South Aussie, I make an effort to get up to the flinders every year and never experience the same thing twice. Such a diverse and beautiful area. You really did the area justice through your great storytelling.

Ha.. Key banger Trev at the flinders servo. My local ktm dealer. Been impatiently waiting for this episode. Epic as always Adam. Big thank thank you.

That was amazing! So much family scenery through the flinders but from a different perspective. It was nice to see Dave from Angorichina Village in the background it’s been many years since I used to travel through there every month for work! Amazing content as always Adam! Thank you for sharing your adventure with us.

I’ve been doing off road adventures with my cbr500r abit because I don’t own an adventure bike and the more I watch your videos the more I just want to bite the bullet and spend the cash to get one

I press like before I watch the full vlog feckin love you guys
