Solo ride ADV - AURSJØVEGEN Ep.8 - Can you tour on a Livewire?
In Episode 8, I continue my ride from Eidsvåg towards Eikesdalen. There I see nice weather ahead up the mountains, so I ride in the valley and up to Aursjøvegen mountain pass. I almost crashed my bike inside a wet tunnel, but managed to manage it well and did not get eaten by a troll inside the dark tunnel either. Up on the pass, I meet a group of Swedish ADV riders. There was some rain on top, but I managed to shake it off with my Livewire. After the mountain pass, I continue to ride to Oppdal, where I stay for the night at a camping site.
Can you tour on a Livewire? Livewire is an electric motorcycle and has a short range of 160-240 km (depending on speed, wind, temperature, and so on), and many people claim it is too difficult to tour on an electric. But with a good charging infrastructure, it should be possible, right? Join me on this tour to watch the beautiful scenery in Norway and ride with me over many epic and amazing mountain passes.

That's an epic scenery! Beautiful landscape, you did a great job capturing this vastness with your drone. And kudos for riding the ELW up there!

Yeah, this was a great pass. This was the first trip with a drone; I had never flown a drone before, so I just did simple shoots. I'm glad you liked that. It was so much fun riding roads like this on an electric bike.
Watching video from Bangladesh

Oh great! Please feel free to share my videos with your friends 👍😁 Are there many electric bikes there? Or mostly gas bikes, maybe?
Awesome views. Love the use on the gravel road as well, demonstrating what the bike can do.

It was truly amazing up there. The livewire I ride in this video is stock. Only added bags and a windshield. Maybe I will change tires if I go on more gravel roads. It is not fun on wet gravel with the stock ones.
Ser kjempefint ut! Aursjøvegen står absolutt høgt på lista over plassar å besøka med Experiaen. Ser også at du lader på Tesla v3 supercharger. Energica har trøbbel der, så bra å sjå at nokon får det til :)

Jeg det er bare a plusse til på lista :) Jeg likte veldig godt turen fra Eidsvågen og innover mot Eikesdalen også. I Gudvangen ladet jeg på Tesla, men der måtte jeg bytte til en annen Tesla-lader da den første jeg prøvde ikke startet. Sto ladere ved Circke K også, men velger Tesla når jeg kan pga de er pittelitt billigere å lade på :)
The problem with these is this, nobody can hear you coming!! I've been walking trails, and suddenly, an electric scooter comes flying by. It could have hit me if I crossed over.

I can agree if the bike is very silent, but I have to say that the Livewire is not as silent as you think. People can hear something coming. At slow speed, it is more quiet, but then it is not a danger for anyone. Another aspect is that the rider has to take responsibility because people who are walking may be deaf, listening to music with earplugs, and so on. Always adapt to the speed. I am a truck driver and know what responsibility I have in traffic, and I am aware of dangers like that.

@@xomoto I may sound retarded but motorcycle should sound good. Like VTX1800 or Raider1900 with straight pipes :) I know it's forbiden in many countries but in my country it's not. Sounds awesome. I know it may disturb some ppl, but actually I fly by in 5 sec and they wont hear my bike anymore

@@BEDbMAK1 Haha, you sound perfectly healthy. I have owned and ridden all kinds of bikes. My 61-mod BSA 650 twin was my favorite. 2 years ago, I did some of the passes on my 2017 Slim S with Jekill and Hyde exhaust. Pretty close to your pipes, full open. After 25 years on ICE bikes, it was fun to try something else. I still have a twin-cam Harley, though. I can't live without that sound.

Don't get me wrong, I would like to try out ebike, but for now they look like toys for me. What I really wanna try is neander - diesel cruiser :)
