TW200 Moto Camping In the Middle of No Where | Running Out of Gas, pt. 2

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Night 1 has been completed and now it's time to explore further on the TW200. This area was completely new to me at the time. The best Adventure is going somewhere new without fully knowing where you are. I ride as far as I can with now gas station nearby. Near the point of no Return I find the perfect place to set up camp. Thanks for watching!

    That was a good little run. I put a bigger tank on my TW. I put an IMS on it and it holds 3.6 gallons compared to 1.8 gallons. It's a lot better and I'm surprised you. I put that little rack on the front just above the headlight. I'll give you some more cargo space. That's what I got on mine. It works out good. Good stuff 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

    The new IMS tank on procycle is 3.6 gallons which is double the capacity of stock tank and does not require any permanent modifications to tdub. It is also the least janky and doesn't require any zip ties to hold plastics like all the other aftermarket tanks. I can get about 160 miles before hitting the reserve with IMS tank.

    @@TDubsKid I've also got a 2 gallon rotopax tank so i can go close to 300 miles without stopping for fuel! also here is another flashlight recommendation for yea, The lumintop mach 4965 puts out about the same amount of light as the Dx80 but it's a bit smaller , has a built in fan for better cooling and it also has a bigger battery (118 watt hours!) . It can also serve as a powerbank to charge your equipment and is PD capable so you can even power 12v gear with it.

    On our trip crossing south to north in Idaho, we had a few stretches where it was close to 200 miles or more between fuel stops. We both used the 2 gallon Armadillo bag from Giant Loop. It's one of the best pouring and easy to use and store of any fuel container I've ever used. I'd highly recommend it man. Koty runs the stock tank on his and we definitely had to use it several times. Great looking area up that way man! Also, procycle has the new 3.6g that isn't so pointy up top and most of the fuel is down low. I just put one on and it really fits nice. Might work out for ya.

    I have the Clarke tank which holds an extra gallon, but does ride a little high. Now IMS makes a larger tank that holds 3.5 gallons and rides a lot lower so your tank bag should work fine. Keep up the great videos.

    Greetings from western Canada . I'm still riding my TWDub at 73. Took a dump a couple weeks ago and bruised some bones . Taking awhile to heal. Any way I hope you read my comments. First, I wonder how many people think those are dirty words to give credit to God for all that beautiful riding country? My sentiments as well. Have you watched itchy boots and her channel ? You talked about covering Colorado on back roads. I watched her come up from Patagonia to Alaska on back roads she's quite amazing. I think she has a couple different ways for packing extra fuel for her Honda because she is on some of the most remote roads in the world and gasoline is rare. I think I've seen her with those flat tanks (roto tank?) attached to the side of her bike and she has those fold up bladder tanks as well. I don't recall you ever reviewing progressive fork springs. I have some but don't see much difference. It's a harsh bike to ride on rocks.

    great ride, love camping up in that same area near dicks peak couple neat trails near it and looping around into the back side of salida and the mushroom gulch area. Aspen ridge is in that same area its amazing in the fall with the color changes. on that black mountain road with the no through access there is a trail (253) that heads south east that loops around that property and drops back into eleven mile. (neat camp sites off of it too) you were talking about getting across colorado all offroad check out the Colorado bdr its a 7 day mostly offroad ride across colorado. would be a great series to see on the t dub.

    Doesnt' it seem like there is more than enough clearance under the rear fender, that some kind of tank could be tucked into there that was higher than the carb input and could be tied in so the fuel goes from the main tank to the big reserve kind-of below the passenger seat, to the carb?
