Half way through editing this my hard drive self destructed (my fault) I lost about a months work…I came so close to binning it. Thanks for those kind words, it means a lot. I’m probably going to put out a series on this tour with all the arguments, banter & failures that didn’t make the cut, so business as usual. Stay safe buddy, glad you enjoyed it and I’m pinning your comment👍🏻

What an amazing adventure. Great scenery and awesome footage. I don my cap to you both 👊

@@GreenString 12k on my 2023 Africa Twin Adv, too heavy, too much electronics. Seriously thinking trading it for the t7, big adventure still in my mind…

@silveriojohan Yeah I get what you mean. I have zero regrets going from a GS to a T7. I’ve beaten my T7 to death this year, 20,000 km, 10 countries and I love it more and more. Most of all though every time I swing my leg over it I feel like a Dakar hero😂 even though I’m terrible at off road riding! I guess it what makes you happy that matters most👍🏻 let me know how you get on with your bike choices in the future.

Absolutely awesome video. A joy to watch and keeping it real as always 🏍️🏍️

As always guys great video and looks an epic adventure. I know you like exploring off road on the big bikes and all credit to you both.. my gsa is definitely a tarmac only bike 😂. People dont release how hard off road riding can be, i tried it last year for the first time (after 30yrs riding) and struggled even on a lightweight CRF!! Ride safe 👍🇬🇧

Yeah I agree. Riding those bikes on the Trans Euro Trail in Spain is borderline stupid (with our skill level). I did a bit of research before we went on the TET facebook page and was told that the section we did was easy on any bike, and it was in most cases but still you can very quickly get out of your comfort zone. Jason did exceptionally well on the big Honda, the T7 is definitely an easier beast off road than my old GS…alas not easier on my backside on the long motorway sections😂 As always thanks for taking the time to comment, stay safe and keep riding👍🏻👍🏻

What a brilliant adventure 🤩 your motorcycle gang of 2 is going wild this time 😁 Loved the video 💚 DlzG Diana

I'm really impressed. This definitely was an adventure. A tough journey to get to Morocco... a long highway journey... but an incredible rewarding adventure. Great video editing. Tough journey, gents. I really enjoyed watching. I'm so curious about the weather... In the vid you bought some souvenirs from the local man. What is the temperature in such a spot? Perhaps not that warm, but what about the 40km desert stretch? That seemed HOT?

@GreenString

Ай бұрын

Typical desert temperatures for that time of year. I think the hottest it got was 34 degrees and you’ll notice in the evenings we were in shorts but had warm jackets on, not sure on temperature then but chilly. You could equally have an amazing road trip around Morocco we spent only €200 in Morocco for 7 days riding. Ferries are super cheap but a bit crap…. Oh and temperature on top of the fortress must have been high twenties but very strong winds ( my tripod was blowing over)

Awesome video, fair played to you

Did I hear that correctly "transmission oil level is low"

@GreenString

Ай бұрын

Yeah, the DCT oil level wasn’t actually low it was empty. Although this was not linked to the braking issue it was one of a couple of fluid levels that were not checked on his service ( by a Honda dealer) prior to departing.

@@johna6968 Possibly? I mean, I’m blaming the Honda dealer for not checking but we had already covered over 1500 km before it became an issue and like you said some of that was off road so I guess the DCT was working hard. It’s difficult to pin point who or what was at fault but it was an easy fix.

@@GreenString interesting.. scary... No warning light for the lack of oil? And if there was no leak... where did the oil go?!

Off-road? Looks like a road to me buddy.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, it’s always appreciated and naturally your right, it was filmed entirely on “roads” and not “off- road”.
