Honda X-ADV | Will It Float?
Yes it's an odd ball, but it handles itself well on a dusty trail and it won't be stopped by a little stream. This is a true 'Go anywhere, do anything' bike.

Nice cameo of you amping up the star power in the background of MOTOBOB's T100 vs T120 video.

It works really well. Unless you're taking through a stream obviously.

Love that MotoBob is collaborating with you. Even with his massive success as of late. Love seeing creators help creators. My issue over here in LA is I can't get bigger creators willing to collaborate.

Yeah we met through other work and it's really nice to have a riding partner when you're recording. Brilliant day out by all accounts.

It might be capable, it might be practical, but I need to love a bike to justify owning one. I have to open the shed door just to look at it. If I like a bike it makes me want to buy parts for it and clean and maintain it. I just don't think I could ever do that with a scooter. I'd always be thinking about the money I could be putting into something else.

It wouldn't be my one and only set of wheels. Speaking of buying parts though, your bike is looking good now man. Congrats on the build.

Fun vid, looks a useful thing for the city commute. It's the green slime at the bottom of those fords you got to watch for........

Thanks man, I'm just glad I didn't have to stop half way. Would have been tough to get through otherwise.

I have to admit being curious about the X-ADV, think it would struggle with much more than you put it through though, small wheels and so wide down low! :-) Kinda cool all the same though! :-)

So he's called Rob. I have thought about one of these in northern Thailand. What do you really think about it? Is the weight carried very low? Does it feel heavy? Is the suspension compliant? It's 238 kilos, but the engine is canted forward 42 degrees, so it sits low in the frame. Interesting video. Nice gloves.

@RarefiedRoad 4 жыл бұрын

The weight is really low so it's nice and composed but you'd need to modify the peg position if you ever wanted to take it off road properly. Otherwise it's all the convenience of a scooter with a more capable engine.

What brand jacket is that? I like it. Rode the X-Adv too for a testride, but the impossibility of footpegs and the position overal I am not gonna go for it. I like the concept though, it is way less boring then most scooters.

@RarefiedRoad 3 жыл бұрын

I think it's a brandit m65. Not really a biking jacket so I stick a Knox Urbane under. Pando moto do a bike version that's similar though

Hey man i noticed you went from an AGV (k3-sv?) to an HJC(rhpa11?). How much difference have you noticed between the two? why not make a review of them.

@RarefiedRoad 4 жыл бұрын

I did think of making a video when I got it but I don't think I have much to say on it other than that it's a nice upgrade from the AGV K3. The visor is better, the fitment is better for me and its lighter, but it is a bit more expensive so you get what you pay for.

@@RarefiedRoad Nice, thanks for the answer.

I wonder how many adventure tires are available in that size?

@RarefiedRoad 4 жыл бұрын

That thought had crossed my mind. It's probably a fairly limited choice.

I figured it would be. I only realised it was low when we got on the motorway and I turned into a bobble head. I think Rob lowered it for the gravel section.

You Managed to tell us nearly Nothing about this bike ? Other than its Weight !

@RarefiedRoad 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your concern but let's address it. First of all, at no point did I say this was a review. And secondly, no one's buying this based on its specs.
