800 miles on my 23 so far. Gets compliments every time I ride it. No stalling issues, no false neutrals- but finding neutral is way easier from 2nd than 1st. My son is new to bikes and uses mine to practice, so it did take a nice stationary drop that yeeted the clutch lever tip into a neighboring state. Swapped on aftermarket adjustable levers, added CarPlay, engine bars, skid plate, hard bags, voltmeter and USB ports, fog lights, ratio swap... lots of mods. I hate the feel of the clutch, though. Feels as though I need to slip it and goose it more than any other bike to get it going. Just bought a 24 Triumph Speed 400 and the clutch on that is far superior- and it's a crazy fun bike also, but very different. The 310 is due to be retired, so it'll be interesting to see what replaces it. I prefer light bikes- so if they come out with a 500 or smaller replacement, I'd likely upgrade. Rumor is something in the 400 range.

Give the other safety improvements - ABS, traction control, radar collision avoidance, et cetera, I'm surprised that motorcycle manufacturers aren't offering a rear facing 170 degree view camera and a wide display above the instrument panel that would function as a full view rear view mirror that's in the rider's field of view. The human perceptual mechanism would quickly integrate that information to allow a constant 360 degree situational awareness. Cameras and LCDs are not expensive. For a little more money, the manufacturers could add a front camera and provide a front and rear digital video recorder, but being manufacturers, they'd find some way to use it to spy on us and sell our data. It shouldn't take much to replace the oversize thumb screws that secure the DoubleTake mirrors with stainless steel button head cap screws to prevent the mirrors from being stolen, and carry a thumb screw hex key on your key chain so you can still adjust/fold your mirrors easily.

Nice video, you have convinced me to get that little GS, I was in doubt between the g310gs and the versys x300, many said that the kawasaki is better but it truly is not better in every area, for instance, the bmw has more torque, more ground clearance, more suspension travel, a more comfortable seat (might not matter much since you can always buy a better seat), 3 year warranty, and those are the ones I could pick up fast from my mind. Besides, the g310gs looks bigger than it really is and the insurance policy in my country, Mexico, is way cheaper than the versys, for some unknown reason.

I was riding my TW200 on a weekday in the mountains close to my city. I was going up a fairly gnarly trail, and I had a 4 inch wide trail to miss this huge boulder that was buried. I missed my 4 inch trail and the rear wheel went into the hole at the bottom of the boulder. My torquey little bike instantly went over backwards and landed on my left leg. I was not hurt, but I could not get into a position to lift the bike off my leg. I always ride alone, and I have done so for 40 + years. About 7 years ago I bought an ARC Personal Locater Beacon. That first one aged out after 5 years, and I bought a new one to replace it. I really did not want to call out Search and Rescue just to lift the bike off my leg, but I would have. Fortunately I wore my Carr-Hart slip on mini boots that day. With some effort, I was able to slide my foot out of my boot and get out from under my TW. I did have a deep abrasion on my ankle that left a mark that will be with me for the rest of my life, BUT, I did get out without needing to call S&R. On one of the websites they had a story about an older couple that was driving their Jeep up by Flagstaff AZ. They were 30 miles from the pavement, and got hopelessly stuck. They had a PLB, but they thought that it was only for emergencies. They Husband decided to try to walk out, but after 1 mile, he realized that 30 miles was not doable, so he went back. They activated their PLB and about an hour later S&R made it to them. They started to apologize right away because neither of them were injured. The S&R people then said, "We would much rather come out here and help you folks out than come out for a body recovery." I never have forgotten that!!!

In genuine neutral full roll back and forth, 93 octane gas, idling at 1,500 rpm, slight free rev to 3,000. On the rpm fall the bike will stall. The ‘23 should have the low rpm anti-lean tune along with the “automatic” high idle. Why in the world after a couple of super light free revs in genuine neutral would this thing be stalling out? I get it’s a single cylinder with a wide bore and short stroke but come on. The bike is brand new and it’s stalling after free rev in neutral?!?

You could try using the proper fuel. It's tuned for 87, and higher octane burns slower and has less "energy" due to the higher resistance to burn.

Glad you are ok and thanks for sharing your story. While I certainly don't know your whole story, a couple observations from someone who has been exploring the backcountry on big bikes for a couple decades. on . A stuck pant leg is not an emergency if you have a knife....ALWAYS have a knife and a whistle w/in reach. Goot that you had your InReach w/in reach. Often, I see clients with their PLBs on their bike, or on a "backpack" that can get ripped off. Tip....Keep you PLB w/in reach using a broken arm. The WRT is a very popular and active trail, before you trigger an SOS and divert rescue resources, ask yourself. Am I currently in real danger or just unconceived and scared? In this case you were inconvenienced and maybe a little scared. If you intend to ride solo, even on mainstream trails like the White Rim. you should have a "non-emergency" contact in your support stack that you can reach out to. Then, you can get their help in non-emergency situations (if available) and not tax the real emergencies. Again, I don't know you details, but there are a lot of people headed into the backcountry these days that rely on trained professionals to assist in inconvenient situations that might seem scary to the uninitiated. This can be problematic. If you are not bleeding out or broken, in a desert with no water, or about to freeze to death....call a friend.

Most BT communicators work fine for music & phone calls. The thing that distinguishes the models and brands is intercom functionality. Cardo & Sena are the clear leaders in this area. (You want to have the same brand and series your rider friends have and if there are more than two people you need a mesh system.) This unit has mesh, but is is extremely unlikely to be compatible with Cardo or Sena mesh. Claiming this unit is comparable to a Cardo Edge without testing its intercom functions, even with other ASMAX units, is BS. You don't even know if the intercom works, much less how it compares with other brands/models.

Hi. I understand what you're saying. I said the sound quality was just as good. I didn't have the opportunity to check the mesh. So it's not bs. when I have a chance, I will make a video on it. I had issues with the mesh on the Cardo packtalk edge where I couldn't connect with a sena or Cardo. so if they're the leaders we have issues. Thanks for watching.

you can absolutely connect this to a cardo and/or sena through the mesh platform
@GallAnonim-jx2cz23 күн бұрын
Cardo and sena are overpriced. Asmax have its own mesh, so if you have two asmax sets you will have BETTER intercom than two cardo sets, for half price. asmax cant connect to cardo mesh btw, but it can connect to cardo through bluetooth and works pretty good.

Helmet is gorgeous 😂😂😂
The music is too loud. Can't hear the bike, nor can i hear you speak.
Keep up with a pickup truck on a low speed tour? I'd hope it could.
hahaha you didnt feel my sarcasm. it was a lot of fun. wish I could have passed that truck.
800 miles on my 23 so far. Gets compliments every time I ride it. No stalling issues, no false neutrals- but finding neutral is way easier from 2nd than 1st. My son is new to bikes and uses mine to practice, so it did take a nice stationary drop that yeeted the clutch lever tip into a neighboring state. Swapped on aftermarket adjustable levers, added CarPlay, engine bars, skid plate, hard bags, voltmeter and USB ports, fog lights, ratio swap... lots of mods. I hate the feel of the clutch, though. Feels as though I need to slip it and goose it more than any other bike to get it going. Just bought a 24 Triumph Speed 400 and the clutch on that is far superior- and it's a crazy fun bike also, but very different. The 310 is due to be retired, so it'll be interesting to see what replaces it. I prefer light bikes- so if they come out with a 500 or smaller replacement, I'd likely upgrade. Rumor is something in the 400 range.
Interresting device 🙂
What a great way of engaging with your audience! I'll give it my best guess. LOL
you may win it|
Great information!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks! I've had an InReach SE for years. Actually it's a DeLORME, from before Garmin bought them. I have it while exploring the Nevada desert. I've never had to use the SOS button but it is nice being able to send the wife a message that has my exact location when I'm in the middle of nowhere. Glad you're okay.
Thank you. glad you haven’t had the need to use it. Stay safe out there!
This video would be sooooo much better without the background music muffling the commentary.
I redid the video and lowered the music on the new one. Thanks for watching
Finally took one for a test ride and really liked it. Not quite the power of my old Fireblade 😂. Ordered it pick it up next week
hahaha fire blade has triple the power. but maybe not as fun. Congratulations!
@@Sasqmoto cheers mate looking forward to it
Give the other safety improvements - ABS, traction control, radar collision avoidance, et cetera, I'm surprised that motorcycle manufacturers aren't offering a rear facing 170 degree view camera and a wide display above the instrument panel that would function as a full view rear view mirror that's in the rider's field of view. The human perceptual mechanism would quickly integrate that information to allow a constant 360 degree situational awareness. Cameras and LCDs are not expensive. For a little more money, the manufacturers could add a front camera and provide a front and rear digital video recorder, but being manufacturers, they'd find some way to use it to spy on us and sell our data. It shouldn't take much to replace the oversize thumb screws that secure the DoubleTake mirrors with stainless steel button head cap screws to prevent the mirrors from being stolen, and carry a thumb screw hex key on your key chain so you can still adjust/fold your mirrors easily.
I have in my possession a test product from a company called carabc. it has dual cameras and car play for your motorcycle. I was excited to test it but unfortunately I have no room to place it on the dash. sounds like something like you're saying above.
@@Sasqmoto - I've seen a few motorcycle DVRs that would work as I described, to make front and rear video recordings on a long loop any time the ignition is on while displaying the rear view above the dash. That's on my G310GS To Do list. I'm just surprised that manufacturers aren't offering a rear view display as a standard safety feature. It's low hanging fruit on the moto safety tree.
that product records the cameras to a micro SD card. kind of like a dashcam. it's waterproof as well.
@@Sasqmoto - Moto Giant posted a DVR recording of his wreck that occurred a little over a month ago when his sleeping bag departed the back of the bike, dangled for a mile or so and was sucked into the rear wheel, locking it up and causing a high side crash at 80 MPH as he was passing a car hauler. It's painful video to watch.
It did look like the DoubleTake mirrors vibrated a bit more when the G310GS starts to buzz above 6000 RPM. That's a shame, although I don't ride highways very often. Unfortunately, faster speeds is when I need the mirrors the most. I'm still considering 3D printing some double ball extensions for my stock mirrors that will give me a view beyond my shoulders and allow them to fold... for a lot less money.
yes that would be cheaper and your design for your needs! Thanks for watching.
I got the upgrade kit for my 501 and they're awesome. the mount is much more secure, no more coming loose from use. the added size and rigidity from the aluminum core gives you very positive engagement with relatively little tension on the screw. I must also say, they look a lot less goofy than my old bifurcated pickles lol
haha yes they seem like they would be great off road as well. I need to get off-road 🤣
Thank's for the video and review ! I also have some thoughts to replace my mirrors on my G310GS to this kind of mirrors, and like you say in the video, the field of view is better over the shoulders when you drive. Now with standard mirrors I always have blind spots that block your view because of your shoulders. Nice to follow your channel, if you see my channel you see my G310GS as well and my reviews of my bike. I'm not sure if the auto translation from Swedish to English working by KZread, but it will be interresting to know if it works for you. Take care and have a wonderful day and trip with your bike ! 🙂
Thank you. I will look at your channel!
Can’t believe I didn’t think of this! Thank you! I installed the bar to the windscreen mounts but immediately removed it because it bounced around so much I couldn’t see the map when off-road.
Hi I did the same, that's when I came up with the bracket idea. hope it helps!
What do you like about the mirrors ? What do you dislike most about them ?
I like the size (that's what she said) and the ease of moving them around for different situations. I don't like that they could be stolen if your motorcycle is left somewhere for a little bit.
Wow great adventure and related story! We’re so fortunate to have this tech available to stay connected + alive. Gave you a Sub.
yes, we do. I think it save lives. I appreciate the sub. Thanks for watching and be safe.
I had a nearly identical situation a couple weekend ago on the Great Western Trail just outside of Torrey, UT. Foot was trapped and the rear peg was hung up on the inside of my boot. Fortunately I did have service and Wayne County Sherrif’s came out to save my foot and maybe my life. I was only under the bike for about 30 mins but they were pretty scary and eye opening. No injuries but still have some soreness and numbness on my leg where the bike was resting. 2007 R1200 GSA. Glad to hear your story and that you were ok. Plus the info about the Garmin is very helpful. Thanks for taking the time to post this.
oh no that’s crazy on a bigger motorcycle. that’s great that you had service and they were able to help. my motorcycle weighs a lot less than yours. I can only imagine how scary that was. Glad to hear you weren’t badly injured. Thanks for sharing and watching the video. I appreciate it.
Riding my quad, lost control and sent into a ditch smashing my ankle along the way. I was clear of the quad but had enough painto feel something may be broken in ankle. Rangers responded, started checking me out, blood pressure too high so they called in a helicopter, i wasnt given a choice. Helicopter ride cost insurance company $60k to get me to hospital about 40 minutes away.
oh man. that must have been so scary. I’ve never been in a helicopter I can’t imagine having to be airlifted. Glad you can talk about it. Thanks for sharing and watching the video.
hi there, I have the same helmet and I was wondering which chin mount are you using for your GoPro? Thanks.
Hi, here is the link. it holds up nice! www.amazon.com/QKOO-Motorcycle-Helmet-Session-Cameras/dp/B091HXYQ6B/ref=mp_s_a_1_3_pp?crid=3VM56R5O74M6&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.L6oi9VIu36ZTgJrR7mCWhr1zTSTRKU17WYkgscZx4XL3QMXgbykDE1NAVXo92f4Kyz4dhG_VMzmpZUUUzqkRQsgR24CTau3D83hQyYGZc-6Ib44acy0t9je1CQSGAH8L0HRQi4gMUKb-xE90vDKRudhKWAu_E5T_inFUKaEvvY5YRSbDVDSyMun3UK6ZuQYFglxgPjl74khcD963A9h5Tw.bimEfl_lb82N5XegR62dKM1PENWYPF9qlDO-XQX8qoE&dib_tag=se&keywords=helmet+gopro+mount&qid=1720313496&sprefix=helmet+go%2Caps%2C248&sr=8-3
Nice video, you have convinced me to get that little GS, I was in doubt between the g310gs and the versys x300, many said that the kawasaki is better but it truly is not better in every area, for instance, the bmw has more torque, more ground clearance, more suspension travel, a more comfortable seat (might not matter much since you can always buy a better seat), 3 year warranty, and those are the ones I could pick up fast from my mind. Besides, the g310gs looks bigger than it really is and the insurance policy in my country, Mexico, is way cheaper than the versys, for some unknown reason.
That's awesome and those are some great points. I also would say the bmw is a lot of fun to ride and it can go anywhere. Thanks for watching. there's over 40 videos on it in my bmwg310gs playlist. check it out for different terrains that I have taken it
voice to text only works if you have signal.
I did not know that!
Great video. I'll be taking mine to the track at Lime Rock Park.
Id love to see it. have fun and be safe. Thanks for watching !
Looks great out there. I've haven't been there yet
great place to hike, get there early so you can find parking
In 1985 my car threw a rod on 1-95 in Maryland. The roadside emergency button station I walked to didn’t work. 12 hours later a Maryland State Trooper stopped and called a tow truck for me. I had no emergency food or water. AAA paid for the tow. Things are better today. I’m glad you’re okay.
that's a crazy story. glad you're ok.
Glad everything worked out OK for you. Beautiful scenery. Curious if you had hard or soft painners?
Thank you. I can't even describe the scenery and it changed around every corner. I had soft and they were full. I did a load out video on what carries. it was episode 1 of the series. I would say they were 9 or 10 inches wide. that room kept the motorcycle from completely laying on my leg. Thank you for watching
@@Sasqmoto Thank you for your reply. Keep up the great work videoing the great scenery. They say soft panniers are safer off road than hard panniers. Do you think things would have been better or worse with hard panniers.
I think in the situation I would have been worse. the hard panniers they have for this motorcycle are very thin like 4 inches so I think I would have been pinned worse. The soft ones are 50 liters so they are nice and big!
Thanks for the Real World example of how the system works. Glad you're safe.
Thanks for watching. I always wondered if it worked. I've had it for 3 years. Now I know 🤣
Thanks for the review I’m going to have to invest in one of those! I too have a 310gs and have done white rim, we definitely had some close calls and it was rough going after my fork seal blew out on the trail! The are a few shorts on my channel of it and some other local trails
sweet! I have never heard of another person on a baby g doing it. I could see that seal going out on this trail. I can't tell you how many times I bottomed out. I will check out your videos. I just posted one with the motorcycle on a track here in Washington. Thanks for watching.
I'm not a need for speed kinda guy but the baby GS on the track piqued my interest. This was about my speed. That did look like fun.
It was a lot of fun. if there was no pace car, I would have used the full capability, it felt like it was only 40%. I only used 3 gears. thanks for watching!
I was riding my TW200 on a weekday in the mountains close to my city. I was going up a fairly gnarly trail, and I had a 4 inch wide trail to miss this huge boulder that was buried. I missed my 4 inch trail and the rear wheel went into the hole at the bottom of the boulder. My torquey little bike instantly went over backwards and landed on my left leg. I was not hurt, but I could not get into a position to lift the bike off my leg. I always ride alone, and I have done so for 40 + years. About 7 years ago I bought an ARC Personal Locater Beacon. That first one aged out after 5 years, and I bought a new one to replace it. I really did not want to call out Search and Rescue just to lift the bike off my leg, but I would have. Fortunately I wore my Carr-Hart slip on mini boots that day. With some effort, I was able to slide my foot out of my boot and get out from under my TW. I did have a deep abrasion on my ankle that left a mark that will be with me for the rest of my life, BUT, I did get out without needing to call S&R. On one of the websites they had a story about an older couple that was driving their Jeep up by Flagstaff AZ. They were 30 miles from the pavement, and got hopelessly stuck. They had a PLB, but they thought that it was only for emergencies. They Husband decided to try to walk out, but after 1 mile, he realized that 30 miles was not doable, so he went back. They activated their PLB and about an hour later S&R made it to them. They started to apologize right away because neither of them were injured. The S&R people then said, "We would much rather come out here and help you folks out than come out for a body recovery." I never have forgotten that!!! By the way, I am 77 years old, and I still ride a dirt bike. Go figure!!
By the way, I am 77 years old, and still riding a dirt bike. Go figure!
I’m glad you weren’t hurt. That could have been disastrous. the story you tell about that couple is a testament to not worry about what people think. if you feel you need help, call for help! I think pride plays a lot into people’s decisions. but pride has started world wars. It is admirable that you still ride. I hope to as well when I get older. Stay safe and thanks for watching!
😎. That looked like fun
it was a lot of fun. thanks for watching
How were you not able to unpin yourself? Sounds like you didn’t try enough
2023 BMW G310GS, 220 original miles. I’ve added 300 in 2 weeks, so currently 520 miles total. Bike rides fine, shifts fine. Not spark knocking, no misfire, no discernible issue. In genuine neutral full roll back and forth, 93 octane gas, idling at 1,500 rpm, slight free rev to 3,000. On the rpm fall the bike will stall. The ‘23 should have the low rpm anti-lean tune along with the “automatic” high idle. Why in the world after a couple of super light free revs in genuine neutral would this thing be stalling out? I get it’s a single cylinder with a wide bore and short stroke but come on. The bike is brand new and it’s stalling after free rev in neutral?!?
that is weird. I haven’t heard that happen. It only usually stalls when it’s in gear. I would take it to the shop for them to look at it.
You could try using the proper fuel. It's tuned for 87, and higher octane burns slower and has less "energy" due to the higher resistance to burn. My 23 has 800 miles on so far- never stalled, but I could see where less volatile fuel could certainly cause that. It cannot adapt to higher octane like some cars can-
I ran the entire White Rim trail on my xr650r in right at 4 hrs. It is a long axx trail!!!! Took all day in my jeep.
it took me seven hours with the crash lol and I stayed one night
The bike has good balance and is fun to ride, I think it would be nice to ride on a track also. Take care of you and your bike !
Thanks, you too!
Nice. You just needed a dirt section!
You got that right! It was fun though! Thanks as always for watching.
I’m out in the wilderness almost every day either hiking, motorcycling, or jeeping and am never without my Garmin! Like you, I sometimes wonder what would happen if I needed it. Glad to hear of your success!
That’s awesome. I wish I could be out more. Having that Garmin is piece of mind. even more so now that I know it works 😀 I thought it was just wasting money until I heard that everyone that goes missing while in the backcountry and dies did not have a way to call sos. it put it all in perspective to get the Garmin. stay safe out there and enjoy every moment!
At 60 yo and disabled, I am back on 2's but only on the street. I would have loved adventure riding but chose other things. I have considered doing some long ribbon and slab rides and I have considered carrying one of these as a backup to my cell. Even though I would likely not be out of service, it is possible. I am glad you were uninjured. Stay smooth and keep the ... well I guess, shinier side on top
HI that is admirable of you to still ride. Honestly, I can see carrying one even if you ride just the tarmac. It could help someone else in need as well if you are out of cell service range. Ride safe! Thank you for watching.
can you connect to the cardo mesh? looking at this brand for my headset
no cannot. but you can sell your cardo and for this money buy two asmax sets, one for you and one for your buddy. i guarantee that intercom quality is better than cardo because i used all of them. Btw im german living in China and I have low expectations from chinese products but asmax is goooooood.
thanks for sharing this experience. i always have my inreach on me but was also not sure how it would work. this gives me a bit more peace of mind. i also crashed about 2 weeks ago in a foreihn country and unfortunatly tore my cruciate ligament, but there were people who were able to help. So no need for the inreach. Thanks again and happy offroading
I am glad to share my experience! sorry to hear about your crash. Wishing you a speedy recovery. How were you able to get the moto back and how long did it extend your stay in the country?
@@Sasqmoto after the crash some people helped me lift the bike and I was able to drive to a hotel, next Day a taxi to the hospital and a phone all to a doc in Switzerland. So I booked myself a flight home, stored the bike in the hotel. I will fly back to Sarajevo in 4 weeks to continue the ride.
wow, glad you’re ok and still wanting to ride. Get back on it and enjoy life. Thanks for sharing your experience. Most people don’t get out of the city they live in. That’s admirable. stay safe!
@@Sasqmoto well, in Europe the next broder is usually not that far away, for me it is just 5 minutes to the border between switzerland and germany, so we are used to visit other countries. traveling to other cultures is a lot of fun. But I would love to ride in your areas as well. did visit the nationalparks 20 years ago on a car, but what fun it would be to do it again on a bike.
Great video and thanks for sharing. Glad you’re ok. Been looking at Inreach products for sometime, think I’ll get one now! Subscribed! Ride safe
Thanks for the sub!! I thought that it was just a waste of money at first. I researched and have heard the people they never find alive don't carry a rescue device. That was enough for me! Thanks for watching I appreciate it!
Have you considered the iPhone now has satellite texting for SOS, and is very reliable and easy to use. All with no fee.
Hi. No I have not. My experience with the phone being out in the woods has been not consistent with a GPS signal. I would not risk it. Until there's more use and testing. I will stick to the dedicated unit. Thanks for watching.
Glad you're OK. Yeah Ive been out there a few times on my ADV... There was a few sand sections that'd just swallow the GSA , I was on, itd get sketchy really fast.
Thanks, wow you're brave for riding the bigger motorcycle out there. Was it hard to handle going up the mountains and the descent? Thanks for watching!
@@Sasqmoto I felt the sand stuff was more difficult.... On these heavy bikes there's zero chance of speeds up and stay on top like my KTM 300....
Awesome review! What are some good beaches and trails to ride in WA?
Hi Thanks for the compliment. There are a few beaches that you can ride/drive on. Grayland, Long Beach, Ocean Shores to name a few. Capital forest is a fun place to ride and the Washington Backcountry discovery route will take you from the Oregon border to the Canadian border, mostly off road. If you are ever in the area riding. Let me know and I will show you around. [email protected]. Thanks for watching.
Good video. Thanks for the info. I have the Garmin Inreach+ & have downloaded their Earthmate app. You're right: trying to text on the Garmin is an exercise in frustration. BTW, I charge my electronic devices "in flight" so they're ready to go when I need them. Recommended.
Hi thanks for watching. I have a charger on my motorcycles as well. It always a good idea to keep everything charged. Stay safe out there!
Before I bought my ADV bike ( previously rode dirt bikes) I always wondered how someone could get pinned under a motorbike until it happened to me, it happened so fast I was pinned face down so couldn't twist enough to get any leverage to push the bike off, luckily finally managed to pull my foot out but it made me realise how much an extra 100kg of bike is. I carry the bigger in-reach and find it an invaluable tool, mostly to let family know where I am but as peace of mind in your scenario. Pleased you had a good outcome.
Oh no, you had it worse. I could at least move around but couldn't get my boot out no matter what. It did happen so fast. Glad you are still going. Thank you for watching and safe travels!
Since I know I will never ride two up on my Tiger RP, I took the passenger foot pegs off. Just looked like something extra to potentially injure or help pin my leg if I go down. They are on a decent sized bracket that sticks out even when the peg is folded up. I also have an in reach (always on my person, along with my phone)… and a one of those “old man out on his own” Moto jacks in my panniers… may not be able to get to it, but it’s there in case I for some reason I get in a bind where can’t lift my bike. Have a decent first aid kit as well. All added insurance out in the middle of nowhere (lots of remote spaces in the So Cal desert and mountains).
Glad you are ok and thanks for sharing your story. While I certainly don't know your whole story, a couple observations from someone who has been exploring the backcountry on big bikes for a couple decades. on . A stuck pant leg is not an emergency if you have a knife....ALWAYS have a knife and a whistle w/in reach. Goot that you had your InReach w/in reach. Often, I see clients with their PLBs on their bike, or on a "backpack" that can get ripped off. Tip....Keep you PLB w/in reach using a broken arm. The WRT is a very popular and active trail, before you trigger an SOS and divert rescue resources, ask yourself. Am I currently in real danger or just unconceived and scared? In this case you were inconvenienced and maybe a little scared. If you intend to ride solo, even on mainstream trails like the White Rim. you should have a "non-emergency" contact in your support stack that you can reach out to. Then, you can get their help in non-emergency situations (if available) and not tax the real emergencies. Again, I don't know you details, but there are a lot of people headed into the backcountry these days that rely on trained professionals to assist in inconvenient situations that might seem scary to the uninitiated. This can be problematic. If you are not bleeding out or broken, in a desert with no water, or about to freeze to death....call a friend.
Thanks for the comments. If it was just my pant leg, I have always carried a knife. I wear a tall enduro boot that covers my calf up to the bottom of my knee. The under peg got caught on the lip of my boot. I couldn't get it out no matter what. I tried for a half hour, even unbuckled and tried to pull my foot out. tried pushing it off with my free leg. It was during the week and I was 50 miles from anyone/anywhere. it was a last resort. I am from Washington state and did not know anyone out there. Stay safe out there.
@@Sasqmoto Appreciate your response. Many would taken some kind of offense. I cut my off-road teeth in the Washington backcountry and did a lot of solo riding where there would be no one for days. I can appreciate your context. Thanks for sharing and say hello to the OP for me.
No problem. I’m planning on doing the Washington BDR this year as well. if you are every here in Washington, I’d love to go on a ride.
Great PA, I'm a big fan of the InReach. Glad you adventuring on!
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. Safe travels!
HA, i had a rock bust a hole in my case of my old KLR back in 2010'ish at that very same area as you. I was literally at the junction for the road that takes you to the White Crack camp ground. No garmin mini back then and SPoT was a new thing I didn't have yet. Luckily I wasn't alone, had 5 minute JB weld, spent an 1 1/2 asking the next 21 people who went by for oil and finely got back on the trail. That was my first time on the WRT. I now have a Mini and glad to see people sharing how the SOS feature is working.
your story is better than mine 🤣 I'm glad you made it safe. that's crazy that you had to ask for oil! Thanks for watching!
Most BT communicators work fine for music & phone calls. The thing that distinguishes the models and brands is intercom functionality. Cardo & Sena are the clear leaders in this area. (You want to have the same brand and series your rider friends have and if there are more than two people you need a mesh system.) This unit has mesh, but is is extremely unlikely to be compatible with Cardo or Sena mesh.

Hi. I understand what you're saying. I said the sound quality was just as good. I didn't have the opportunity to check the mesh. So it's not bs. when I have a chance, I will make a video on it. I had issues with the mesh on the Cardo packtalk edge where I couldn't connect with a sena or Cardo. so if they're the leaders we have issues. Thanks for watching.
you can absolutely connect this to a cardo and/or sena through the mesh platform
Cardo and sena are overpriced. Asmax have its own mesh, so if you have two asmax sets you will have BETTER intercom than two cardo sets, for half price. asmax cant connect to cardo mesh btw, but it can connect to cardo through bluetooth and works pretty good.
