Suzuki VanVan 200 vs. Ducati Multistrada 1200 Enduro Rags to Riches! | On Two Wheels
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Instead of some faraway land, Zack and Ari are off on a local adventure, and turned it into a challenge: what’s the cheapest (and most expensive) way to go camping on a motorcycle? Ari has chosen his weapon, and Zack has piled multiple weapons on board his machine. They’re off to the wilderness where blue skies, and some trouble, await.

Wow, excellent video! Although I am not a huge fan of big bikes off road, the amount of gear they can haul is amazing. I loved how you guys showed that no matter the budget, motorcycle adventuring is a great way to get out there and have some fun. In fact, an argument can be made for making do with less as it adds to the adventure. Loved this video!

The reason it feels like a commercial - is because it basically is a commercial. who do you think lends them the bikes? If they shit talk the manufactures, they burn bridges, and stop being invited to luxurious European test rides. It's a win win, manufactures get advertising, and reviewers are given bikes to "review", expensive holidays and media content like KZread videos and magazines that make them money.
What an awesome vid! On2Wheels is by far the best moto series on KZread! Really wanting to do some moto camping this summer for some weekend adventures to get out of the work grind and this is pushing me closer to hitting buy on some soft luggage to upgrade from my current bungee cord system..

Great video! That looked like a lot of fun! I was looking at a VanVan 200, for the first time ever, just yesterday. It took me back to simpler days when I would 'adventure bike' (we just called it "ride" back then) on my 1972 Honda XL-250. The world needs more basic motorcycles like that: mechanically simple with seats low enough for normal people. We used to think 5" of suspension was plenty and it actually is so there's no compelling reason to have a 36" seat height on an enduro. All of that being said, it would be really good if the VanVan had a big brother. Perhaps a VanVan 350? A little more oomph for those big hills would be nice.

Van-van was DEFINITELY the better choice. I probably would've gone with a CRF250L, the fancy one. By the way, did you guys remember to deflate your tires when you went offroad? That would make the Van-van into a BEAST on those roads. (and would also help out the pig) Ari could've at least had a 1 man tent. You guys have deadly spiders out there, probably poisonous snakes too. The tarp was not as genius of an idea as he thought.
