"i just want one of those" Perfectly said mate, lot of emotion involved in choosing bikes

I was choosing between T7 and AT and my heart went with AT. No regrets, awesome bike!

Just an amazing video... I'm a rider and found this channel researching ADV bikes. This was so beautifully filmed, edited, and written... I actually found myself getting emotional at the end of it when you described what I bike can do for you and where it can take you. I don't have friends that ride and my wife doesn't get it, so it's wonderful to hear and see someone so eloquently deliver the message... Keep up the good work, your channel should grow profoundly. Cheers from San Diego, CA.

You’ve captured so much of what I’ve felt astride my AT but failed to put into words, let alone pictures. Thank you for taking ADV films to another level.

Beautiful cinematography. Makes me want to emigrate.

Absolutely love the fact that you bought it because it made you feel a certain way! I lost a deposit on a bike I ordered because when I was my bike in the show room I couldn’t walk away

This is the best looking bike hands down

I really enjoy this video, the drone footage is exceptionally remarkable, well done sir. Hello from Alberta, Canada

Always so jealous of the sheer amount of trails and off road you guys have access to. Here in the UK there’s very little, and what there is is constantly being removed from use.

I really liked your riding skills and the entire ride centric video editing! Thanks for the amazing video.

Damo, love your story telling and videography! Beautifully done and narrated! Subscribed for more! Loved the bloopers!! 😂

You motivated me to also buy an Africa Twin. An older 2017 DCT model, though. Absolutely smitten and love it. Does everything my DR650 could do. Mine is named Toto. Good name for an Africa Twin with a rider from Africa (Southern Africa). Love your videos.

i REALLY enjoyed watching your videos on your KZfaq Channel, Even I do love Japanese bikes since childhood, I don't know why but I really loved Japanese Bikes. God Blesses you always and enjoy your safe ride...

Great bike and a fantastic video so well put together. Your time and effort put into this is appreciated👌

Damo, you have excelled once again, setting a standard for humour, humility and a thoughtful review. The cinematography and production are excellent, whilst your narrative is outstanding. Really looking forward to more videos of your journey with Murray.

The Power Of Dreams From The Top Of The World ❤

And now I want a Africa twin as well 🤦‍♂️ Great video mate. So much detail. Can’t wait to follow along and see more. Can only imagine the time spent 👌🏽10/10

Excellent video. I really hope you keep it up. Your video was simply great to watch.

Amazing drone videos, quality of entire film is terrific! Well done! Subscribed, looking forward for new videos!

Thanks for sharing your adventure! Great filming and editing. My ATAS is parked for the winter here in Norway now - good to see fresh videos from the southern hemisphere during this season, while longing for spring to come.

Great video. Enjoyed every bit of it. Just checked Adventure 890 and Africa Twin. As you said - I kind of felt that 890 is something I need… but just by checking out - Africa feel much more like something I want. Enjoy the rides!

Outstanding video production. Really great work. I had never considered ADV bikes when I was younger, but understand their appeal now.

thanks by share your experience...It was amazing.

Great video brother! A good overview and reasoning about the bike, a nice road trip, and excellent videography and editing.

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant...both the content and the bike! 🏍👍

It's a long time dream of me. The Africa Twin is unique ❤️ you drive in a wonderful Area! Best wishes from Berlin /Germany!

The "Todd Carney cocktail", brilliant, along with the rest of the video. Murray suits you and the fact that you know how to ride it is a bonus.

Winner winner chicken dinner. That was epic mate - well done. Test rode a 21 standard/manual the other day - loved it. There will be a 23 AT AS manual gearbox in my near future, just got to sell 2 other bikes to make it happen. Love the “loin” skit haha. Cheers from NZ.

Beautiful cinematography, mate! Loved this 🙌

4 minutes in and you absolutely nailed it. The outtakes at the end cracked me up.

I'm so happy to own an AFRICA TWIN 1100 ADV SPORTS DCT EL SUSPENSION in black matt. I'm in love with that bike-the GOAT bike!!!!

My V Strom makes me feel exactly the same way. Including saying g'day to it when venturing into the garage.

Brilliant video Damo. Loved the outtakes at the end as well. Great production and content. Awesome….

I have an 2020 ATAS and I love it for many of the same reasons that you do, I also love the reliability! I get off into the mountains in western Canada whenever I can. It's amazing to get off the beaten path and challenge myself and my machine to get to places that most people never see. It is quite literally two wheeled therapy for me and is so good for my soul. Thanks for sharing and never stop riding!!

I love a content provider that doesn't take himself to seriously yet gets some good points across. Spot on 👌. Just bought myself a Tuareg 660 can't wait for my own adventures to begin

Bloody brilliant! came here for the adventure left thoroughly entertained 😂 Thanks my man enjoy the festive cheer

Spot on, the almighty brain battle between an 890R, Tuareg and T7 for offroad agility, yet here we are, a 16 DCT, 17DCT and now the 1100 as the RouteBike. It's not a BMW on the road, nor a Kato in the bush, it just sits square in the middle.

Great editing, filming and story line. All up excellent.

Thanks for a fantastic video! I have not had curry since I travelled in India 1984!☺

Awesome video. Thanks for posting. Ive had a 2016 Africa Twin since the month it was released and I’m getting ready to upgrade to a 2023 your video answered a lot of questions for me not to mention right out entertaining. Love the blooper reel at the end. 😂

Gorgeous video, this is what realizing an ADV dream looks like

You lucky bastard... i see your video and think "a dream for every Biker" Greetings from an Africa Twin AS Rider from Germany ✌

First of all congratulations for the new Africa Twin and how well you made the video. The reason n°2 you told was exactly what I tough when I bought my ATAS 2018 DCT. Every ride they put a smile on us. New subscriber here.

Im on my second AT now, just stumbled onto your channel its great cheers 🍻 👍

😁 i was laughing at the last bit..." i can feel it in me loins " Nice filming work too ...suscribed 👍

Thanks for sharing this. Amazing quality of the production. My ATAS is currently resting, waiting for king winter to depart Norway :)

I love my 2016 AT with no bells or whistles and you've nicely captured what it means to have a slightly unhealthy relationship with your bike but I'm equally unapologetic about it. Nice vid 👍

I found this video, the narration, the scenery, everything about it, so calming, relaxing, like a mental cleansing ritual of sorts. Maybe its the purity of the land of Australia, maybe the narrator is a realised soul, I dont know, but it all materialized together beautifully. Many thanks to the whole team and best of luck for your future. Now I wish I had friends like this - people of calm spirit with a yearning for adventure and exploration.

I love the roads around RWD, and the Waterfall way!! I’ve never ridden them but drove them may times. Great to see you ripping them up! I cannot believe new the Honda Transalp runs the horrible and cheap looking headlight off the CB500X, and I own the CB500X! The dual headlight set up and running lights on the AT, and especially on the black model, is one of the best looking and toughest fronts in motorcycles, awesome video Damo, love it! Thanks!

Quality production Damo, you got yourself another sub 👍

Very nicely filmed!

Man, THANK YOU for doing this video! Instantly subscribed! All of the reasons you gave for choosing the Africa Twin, were mostly the same for me. I plan on buying mine late this year, or early 2024. Trail riding is how I started riding motorcycles, when I was a little kid, all the way through my teenage years. At 12 years old, I got my first "real" motorcycle; a 1979 Honda XL 185. A 4 stroke with a lot of torque down low in the revs. The Africa Twin reminds me of my XL 185. You're right about the internet "experts" spitting on anything larger than the Yamaha Tenere 700. This had me second guessing my Africa Twin choice. It's been since my childhood, that I've ridden trails and off road, so I thought maybe my thinking was wrong, here. I've ridden almost exclusively on road since my teens, but I'm no stranger to big bikes, as my current bike is a 2021 ZX-14R. I'm not afraid of the weight; in fact, it provides stability in situations that smaller bikes would be sketchy in. The type of riding you did in this video is exactly what I plan on getting back to. I don't plan on any crazy single-track or extremely technical riding. To quote 'Roger Mutaugh' from Lethal Weapon, "I'm too old for that $hit". I just want some fun, relaxing mind-freeing trail riding, on a bike that has all the bells and whistles, capability and reliability to get me there and back again with no headaches. The Africa Twin is still the best choice for this and far more than I want to do.

You mentioned the best reason to get an Afrika Twin; it was the bike YOU wanted, regardless of pros and cons. Glad you love it -many do.

That was very awesome that was very nice. Thanks again Man

i enjoyed watching this very much and had a good laugh . thanks .

It’s grate cinematography…! Nice to watch and had 🤩

Thanks for sharing your thoughts about this amazing bike and for the superbe video :-) Can't wait to go pick up mine!

Damo, best video yet on the Africa Twin! My sentiments exactly on the ATAS too, she's something I've wanted, so I got one. For me, she's the perfect bike for the "not so perfect" rider! I'm pretty green to all this but she inspires confidence and gives me that freedom I've desired since leaving the aviation industry. Those locations your riding in, very close to my backyard, it's just heaven out that way! Some of those gravel roads are very familiar! Great cooking tips, had me in stitches!!

Haha .awesome one damo 🤣😂👍🍻keep up the bloopers. Made my day ! have a good Christmas and new year m8, see you in the next episode!!

Mind-blowing visuals, music and narration 👍🏼

Nice one! informative and entertaining. Thanks.

Great video mate! Salutation from 🇨🇭

I have the same😄👍Greetings from Poland!

im going to goto my grave jealous of the riding landscape you guys down there have compared to middle england , great bike choice as well i want one too

Excellent content and well put together. I think we take ourselves way too seriously sometimes when it come to bike choice, so love your outlook. I’ve recently transitions to a 2020 ATAS DCT Yes it’s too heavy for my 69yr old body but I don’t care. I love it. I love at Cooranbong so familiar with your ride

bikes are dream machines you own them not for monetary value but for the shared pleasure of therapy for the stress you feel as if you flying through time and space

I just happen to find this Gem of a Small Channel. No Joke You Keep up the work and make more content like this you will be at 1 Million Subs in no time. Seriously great quality of Work. Have fun Rude safe.

Great video bro, I love my AT, it makes me happy 😎

I just came across your channel today, subscribed. Excellent quality photography, sound and story telling. How you have only 7k subscribers I don't know. I have UK channels with more who can't match your quality, though they are not ADV focused. Hope it grows. Thanks for the in depth reviews and humour.

Mate, this is such a beautiful video. What an amazing place to live. Jealous? A little. I’m near the Alps with my 2018 ATAS but the attitude to bikes on trails is a little strict unfortunately. Have to head towards the mountains to avoid the crowds. Glad to have discovered your clips!

Great filming and perfect narration. Love it! Now if only I could find an Africa Twin in stock where I live.

Really good video, thanks

What a great channel!! New subscriber Keep um coming mate🍻🍻✌️

I thought the video was great until I saw the bloopers. The video is now classed as "AWESOME!"!!! Great job mate 🙂

You're an excellent videographer. Really enjoyed going along on the journey, albeit on my screen 😀.

Damn, you are lucky to have such a beautiful place to ride and enjoy nature, on a absolutely top notch bike

Hello, what a nice video. And what a nice scenery where you riding. whe do not have such a nice roads over here in Holland. I have a Africa twin off 2017 and for me its a perfect bike. Thank you for sharing.

I've heavily ripped on mine on and off-road or 8000 miles now, and have zero regrets other than being 5'8 doing donuts in the mud. As someone my height, it gets tough after a few hours. My biggest negative is show almost immediately around the 3 minute mark. The mud blows right up the back and all over the side of both me and the bike. As someone with a Peral white, I'd love a bit of extra flare out there to protect me and the bike a bit more, but also hasn't stopped me from having an absolute blast of road. @ 16:50 that's why I always bring two ratchets straps that are about 10 feet a piece. Use them like a winch for either my bike or for clearly paths.

As a kid I built a Rothmans Dakar Honda bike, Tamiya model , I now own a 2016 Africa and I still walk in the garage to look at it and smile that I own one. I would still love a early 90's 750 Africa. Thanks for the video and also you may have swayed me to the Karoo 4's

Top quality. Funny. Had me at RJ. I’m subbing.

Great production!

Wow Cinematic video. I am a new follower of your channel Greetings from Sweden

You seem like the kind of guy I’m looking forward to meet off the road. 🤙🏻 amazing video, awesome bike, keep it up!

Your bike has to speak to you every time you see it! That’s what my 2021 ATAS does ! It says get on and I’ll take you anywhere and bring you home again!

Well done! Just subscribed! I bought a 2016 DCT in 2016 when they first came out. Flew to the dealership 1,400 miles away and rode it back. I had switched the seat to the lower profile at the dealership because I’m vertically challenged at 5’6” with 29” inseam. Not the smartest thing I’ve ever done. Lol Ride safe and looking forward to your next adventure. Ride safe…🙏🏻🏍🙏🏻😎😁

amazing video !!!!! greetings from GREECE!

Wow, deep, tears, amazing, inspiring to ride the planet, I own the 2023 ATAS at 7400kms and I love it...

Great video! And as you mentioned, it is not about the best motorbike according to any review. It is about the motorbike you want to own and ride. This is a very personal and emotional topic. I ended up with a 2019 AT with DCT and I absolutely love it. Keep riding! Michael

Great info and thanks for listing the mods!

I'm new here, and I like it, nice humour, great ride, lovely bike! Greetings from Poland mate!

Wow man you are lucky to live near all that.

Great video!

Amigo!! Excelente video! I have the same AT AS in red white and blue. Greetings and respect to all from Durango Mexico 🇲🇽

Right on ehhh! I have the same bike 2020 tri-color version. 21000 km and still smiling. Honda reliable, and with es suspension, able to transition on the fly. Canadian Rockies is my home turf, with plenty of adventure throughout BC. There are more capable single track warriors out there, but for multi-week camping throughout mountains, highways, cities, and ocean road ways, I'll take the AT every day. Like you, I grew up a Honda Patriot, and living my dream. Cheers bud, from Canucksville 🇨🇦 :⁠-⁠)

Keep it up, Damo! Looking forward to seeing your adventures on Muzz. Hopefully will see ya again some day if they ever let me back over the ditch for a bike launch.

Awesome video! Subscribed

Just subscribed, I really enjoyed your video. I have never been off road on a bike but I beleive you convinced me to start living before I'm bound to a 💺. Appreciate you making this beautiful video.
