Don't worry about youth crime in QLD as long as they got your $430 that's all that matters

That’s a dirty game being a filthy cop

Wont catch me saying i have the utmost respect for polie. What was he doing that was worthy of respect? Blind compliance is more dangerous than 58 in a 40. Thanks for the video mate.

You are a very nice guy for helping that policy enforcer meet his quota.

I didn't know bikes were still allowed on the island! Planning a trip right away!

Haha, same thing happened to me last year. Beach was covered in massive jellys, so I was sitting at about 60 to dodge them, just too unsafe to do 80 at the time. Didn't realise I hit a 40 because I was focused on the road. Oh well, best place in the world to get a speeding ticket IMO. What got me was how angry the cop was, I just said to her "you work on a beach all day and you can't crack a smile? I'd be loving life to work here", that didn't go down well lol.

Takes me back to the Fraser trip I did with my wr450 about 10 years ago. Before I had a missus, mortgage, and kids, when life was a lot easier and simpler. It really was a bucket list trip and watching your video made me relive it. Thanks for posting.

I think we all agree to cop a fine for doing the wrong thing. But the amount they whack you nowadays is obscene. It deteriorates respect of the law as it gives an overt impression of blatant revenue raising.

so trippy seeing the town near where i grew up and work at on a KZfaq vid never get over how good Fraser looks nice vid :)

That cop should know speed is your friend on a bike in sand. Oh well, shit happens, just got to move forward... Last time I was on Fraser was in 1989. Drove around in the day, put the tent up at night, not knowing we were camped on an ants nest... woke up to dingoes opening our esky, the handles were locked on and they still got in it, stealing our food. Swam in lake mckenzie and saw a dingo bite a young girl on the leg, she was sitting down building sand castles minding her own business. Then stopped at the shop for a burger and dingoes trying to eat them off us... So bloody hot, but you can't swim in the ocean 'cause of sharks. A cyclone hit on the 2nd day, everyone was told to get off the island and I've never been back! 🤣🤣 But I loved your video. Thanks.

I am enjoying the journey you have shown so far. Your commentary showing the lay of the land has helped me more than most other vids of Fraser. I plan to take my family there in a year or so, but with the fourby. Good all rounder the DRZ. Last time I met riders in Maryborough the came up through the forest from Gympie, just another way to get on the trail and end up near enough to link Fraser too.

It’s a top ride. Did your entire journey on an XR600R, best memories. Great vid 👍🏍️👏

Amazing. What wonders you guys have downunder. Planning to move to NSW later this year... Looking forward to getting a DRZ and join the club! Awesome stuff....

Nice video, reminds me of driving in the outback dunes, got to 140km/h before the rear started dancing but 58 k’s is slow as snail in sand.

Stunning beaches, and great edit Josh 👍 But that copper! What a revenue hunting scam that was. Hope the rest of the trip was less expensive 😎👍

The police seem to be completely out of control in QLD, NSW and Victoria these days. Thankfully over here in WA things are still pretty good.

The drive up from the GC is so long, but also a lot of cool sights along the way! 😄

Excellent adventure video. thanks

Drz400 is such a good bike! Love that thing so muchh

another great adventure!

Thanks for posting this video, what a great Drz trip!! I’m in Oregon and might have to try out our local dunes(Winchester Bay, Coos Bay) areas:) thanks again

Liked your drone work around the Maheno.

My step farther went over on his DRZ 400, with a few mates a couple years back. He's always up my ribs to get a dirt bike to go over again with him. Best trip ever on the bike he rekens.

Happy Valley has the best Cheese & Bacon Pies! - Looks like a good ride for the DRZ

You have convinced me to buy some knobbies for my drz 400sm, hopefully I see you out there mate!

Love your videos. On my bucket list to do this ride. Thanks very much for sharing 😊👍

Awesome mate!

Amazing!!

This is Epic!! Keep up the good work

The DRZ 400E was my first bike. I learned on it. Nice power for a Lams.

Went there once before and it was one of my favourite holidays.

Some 35mm film works well in those seals… clean and reseat the rubber. That’s a bush mechanic trick that’s worked well for me in the past Have fun buddy Keep it upright

That bike looks scrumptious

I love Fraser I only live just over in Bribie sandstone point it’s a beautiful place to be love it I went out there not to long ago with my uncle in his 79 series it was sick

Bugger. But nice trip mate & video 😊

Makes me wanna jump in a 4x4 and go for a trip to Fraiser. Maybe one day soon. I'd love to check out the Mahino.

Cool shit mate! Although it cost you a fortune she's a nice part of the world to enjoy! Love getting amongst it myself, would of been a mad trip just on a dirt bike!

absolutley buetiful and amazing commentary👌👌👌👌👌👌

Wow pigs are even on island beaches now I feel safer already

Josh, great channel , recently bought a drz. Keen to do similar tracks as I am a local to Brisbane. Thanks and keep up the good work.

Awesome bro. I was there last year and hiked 160km up the middle of the island. I was at eli creek at 6 in the morning and I was the only one there. It was very special. Gotta take a bike over there next to explore the northern part.

I love Fraser Island its a family thing we do every 2nd year and i love to take my motorbike

Im heading to pick up a mint 400E tomorrow, taking my truck across Lake Michigan via ferry also to get it and stopping to ride some dunes on way home.....I hope I didnt vex meself now and get a ticket also LOL.

Me old boy has just retired up near there at caloolacove.. I love getting away to the area.. bout to buy a boat for him to use and myself when I get away from work. Amazing place.

I would have just given old mate a thumbs up from my clutch hand at 150 on the back wheel,

my last name is fraser, and alot of the creeks and places on the island are names of my sisters and brothers, been 6 years since I last went to fraser island. Hope you had fun

Not a biker here. Went on a Fraser Island tour on an off road tour bus and loved it, would like to go there in a 4x4 again and have a little adventure

nice mate, we almost made the trip last xmas in my new ranger, would love to do it on my dr650 :) only thing is making the trip up from Albury would take a while :) maybe this coming year might take the fam across.

Me and a bunch of mates did the ride up from tewantin to double island then rainbow on stock groms hahaha, the hardest part was the fresh water track on the way back

Travelled around Oz on a little Honda cd 250 in the 90s in my late teens with a dog on the tank and had a ball

I want to go back there one day and do it again.

Look at the Chemtrails. So many!!!

i hit the the 500th Like 🏆

Nice video. Well produced. Sorry for your fine mate.

I’ve been to Fraser 12 years ago, undercover police pulled me over with his gold Toyota prado and he was so nice and let us go while i was going fast on the beach with no seat belts and lots of other violations that i wont say ( i was 21 ) i remember everything about that trip it feels like yesterday, i miss Australia

Its over 20 years since i was on Fraser. Absolutely beautiful place like no other.

Imagine having a speed limit on a beach. Amazing

Awesome first ep mate, looking forward to the next! Shame about the ticket, not sure how it makes sense having a speed limit for the bikes when you can't go too slow on sand on a bike 😕

Australia-wide folks ...revenue more important than ANYTHING else

i got done for not having my seat belt on coming out of eurong, doing 30kmh to put rubbish in the skipbin right next to the outlet path 30 metres up the beach $1000.. know how you feel at the start of a holiday

mad vid! just subbed :)

Nice ride. Bloody coppers and damn fines - both a PITA. But the main thing is you had a great ride

Looks like the Copper that pulled us up on double island when we were on the bikes and was just hounding us for a reason to be able to fine us 😪 other then that mate mint video been keen to get over there for a while now

One thing that people need to understand about cops doing speed enforcement is that they are black and white on the subject. There's not much grey, if you are speeding you'll get a ticket. And the cop probably knows more about sand driving than most given he works on a sand island. When you think about it, 58 in a 40 zone is a fair bit above it as well. I passed a cop doing speed checks on the north side of the Maheno once when I was riding south. As I went past the wreck a bloke in a monster type truck gunned it north. Clouds of soot and a drainpipe exhaust so the cop couldn't miss seeing or hearing him. Monster truck probably got a few blisters that day so all in all, the copsare unfortunately needed there but it still hurts paying the fine.

Awesome content, shame about the ticket but Eurong is pretty infamous as its where the only Police station on the island is located

Its so weird to see someone on KZfaq driving through somewhere you’ve been so many times

Such a dog move by that coppa and what a way to ruin a great trip for ya. I got done doing 93 (shitty day, left cruise control on and it creeped up etc) coming into the 80 zone after Deagon Deviation at Hornibrook (Ted Smout) bridge. Motorbike coppa vs my slightly modified car, I was always going to lose that.

love the 400e i have one they are a little bit too heavy . apart from that ripper machine

Hasn't that cop got anything better to do..... like arrest 12 yr old car thieves and then bail them so they can thieve again? Fair enough if you doing something "dangerous" .....

Good stuff excited for more. Do you have a video about the gear you use? Your saddlebags look well made

my dad went there like 23 years ago he is 30 right now but over all good trip

Shame about your fork seal Joshy! Get yourself one of these jobbies. Pop that dust seal/cap off next time and the actual fork seal is under, run this around it and will clear out any crap that’s in there!! 👍

I was on the tip once and this guy came blasting through the sand dunes on an XR 600 he had a big back pack and fishing rods out the top like an army areal. he jumped a few little dune caps about 5 feet tall and got some unwanted confidence and went for the 6 footer, my riding buddy & i sat on the ground watching while he launched himself into the air and came down spear diving helmet first through the next sand dune. We couldn't stop laughing when he jumped up in shock and grabbed the bike and rode away with sand streaming out of his helmet like a giant hour glass hahahahahaha

They're absolute pricks on that island. They've got UCs on there too which most people don't know about and/or realize. We were in a 5 car convoy at Easter (we have been going to Fraser since the mid 80s) and minding our own business when we were pulled over for RBT. Our son who was driving our 2nd 4WD (my car) was hounded by the officer about the lift, the wheels, etc. and told that he (the cop) would go through the car from top to bottom if he saw our son again... very disappointed by the attitude!

Man that sucks bout the fine, thx for sharing tho, I get it important to control crazy drunks driven recklessly, but 58km/r on a dirt bike on the beach? No negligence or risk and over $400? Fk that. You’ve probz saved a bunch of newbies to Fraser some coin with this vid! Thank you 🙏

Getting a ticket in Australia is just like paying your weekly tax ...

Revenue McPig is everywhere.

No many can say they skinny dipped at lake makenzie - got the chill and the photos to prove it

Lol man rode past me hahahahaha

What sprocket size are you using?

me and my uncle are thinking of a trip from vic to fraser island what would u say are the must have things to take

Does the aircraft get a speeding fine when taking off?

What was your fuel consumption once you hit Fraser mate ?

Probably stands there all day picking easy targets.

a copper tried to book a mate of mine for parking on a rock at eurong. literally one front wheel flexed on a bare rock sticking out of the sand on the beach. there's some real nut jobs out there.

Noosa north shore. Coolum is half hour south.

Rule number one, never stop for the coppers. Rule number two, if you do get stopped by the coppers, you don’t know who those other riders are 😎

❤fraser

Gonna sound like a nerd for a sec, but what camera and mic are you using? The audio quallity from your helmet is of the charts. New subsciber, will be checking out all your content real soon. Cheers.

I bet that plane has to go over 40 to take off.

I did fraser in a 4wd but would love to do it on a bike!

Hard at it on the beat. It’s a DR, should be bonus points and a time extension

👍

As long as people aren’t ripping the beach to pieces I’m happy. Won’t be long and you won’t be aloud there anymore anyway though.

Never in a million years would I expect a speed trap on a beach! That said, looks like a pretty busy one, and there have been some high profile accidents on far quieter beaches here in NZ so they aren't out there for no reason at least. Looks like paradise none the less, makes me want to get out and do this sorta stuff!

Can land a plane on the beach, but oh dear. If you go a little too quick on a bike, you’re in trouble..

Seen as there's a speed limit that he's enforcing I guess it's classed as a main road, id write a letter saying it's unsafe on a bike to travel at that speed on an unmaintained road.

I use a ferry in Ontario to go to Quebec in Canada its 5$ I pay them 10 lol and 18 over would be like 50$ here

what gps is that bro ?

I want to go to fraser now. The cops suck but hey still looks sweet there. Enjoy mate 👌
