Thanks for your time explaining all of your gear! Love the crickets in the background ;)

Thanks for sharing. Great to see someone not over packing.

Lol the soap dropping humor! Great overview. Appreciate it

Great video! I also had the Klymit V Luxe, ended up giving it to my brother for that lack of insulation problem you were talking about, I'm just too cold of a sleeper to have a sleeping pad with no insulation. I replaced it with my Exped Synmat UL pad, that also came with a pump sack so I don't have to use my breath and risk growing mold in my sleeping pad. Also! I really love Pack It Gourmet if you haven't tried those yet, love them. Some of them can be sodium heavy, but it's soooo good and I find that their cook time on the package seems to be more accurate than my experience with Backpacker's Pantry and Mountainhouse. I like those tank bags! Excellent idea!

Great video! 👏🏼

I had to laugh, we were chatting last night and i remember watching this and asking you about those dmada bags probably from my first channel attempt moto camping gear. Small moto camping youtube world. I am hoping to get Idaho Bdr in this year again doing the North part solo and then possibly flying in the wife for the darby section down which should be interesting 2 up on a 701 for the first time off road lol. If I get up there I will make sure to hit you up. This year I have been meeting as many viewers and other channels as time and cash allows which has been pretty fun considering until last year I was pretty much a shut in reclusive type lol. Great load out you have me considering the sea to summit pot for sure.

That was a great walk true on your gear sir... Have a nice trip.

Hey Kyle, thanks for the video. Nice camping setup btw! Are there any more issues with your right foot peg mount? saw your last video of the camel brace two weeks ago, which convinced me, to buy one of my own. But if it won´t work when you drop your bike, I wouldn't purchase it back here from Germany :D A friend of mine will first try to weld my broken foot peg mount before I buy a new one and after that I will add the brace (plus model).

Kyle, I love the video! Thank you for the details. I bought an Africa Twin and now I'm in the market for a new helmet, and I've been waiting for your review of the Krios Pro. I tried one on, and I have a slight hot spot on my forehead. Will that go away? For the price, I really want to love the Krios Pro, but I'm hesitant with the hot spot. ...or should I look at Arai XD4 or Shoei Hornet?

@backcountryadvmoto

Hey Brian, Thanks for watching. I don't know about the hot spot, I didn't experience that. For me it was nice and plush from the moment i put it on. I know for some the helmet runs slightly big. For instance if you are a Large then consider going to a Medium and a XL to a L. Ive owned both the XD4 and the Hornet X2 in my opinon the Krios Pro is FAR better. Its way lighter than both and about as quiet as the X2 but breaths WAY better than the X2. The XD4 is a good helmet, but VERY loud. If the Krios fits you head shape go with the Krios hands down. In my opinion :)

Take the helmet that fit your head the best. Hotspots may ore may not go away, l have experience on bought. You can use your finger to push the helmet foam on the hotspots area, it may work, l have done it with luck on a shoei once. But l do recomend a helmet that fit your head at the beginning.
