Good advice!! Plenty of room and stay away from other vehicles and it’s a fantastic bit of road 👍 there’s always someone there having a bad day ..

Thank you 😊 I will making plenty more

Thank you 😊 i do try 😊

Zapraszamy . Wszystkiego najlepszego w Nowym Roku

Thank you Richard.. how lucky are you living in the lakes !! It’s a lovely bit of countryside to ride isn’t it .. all the best

Thanks 😊 think you definitely need to be there to experience that road !! I watched a lot of videos before I went with all the fails .. it’s a lovely pass to ride in the summer you just have to plan your moves 🤣👍

Absolutely, I didn't bother filming mine eather as you say it's not until you actually see it how steep this pass is I took a picture at the top of Hardknott pass looking towards eskdale just for the scenery really. Loved every second of the ride.

Thank you , glad you got something from it

It’s so hard to get the sound right without proper mic’s , I might invest 👍 the bike sound was on the video but it was overpowered by the music in some places

It was !! It was a Great ride

Thanks Stan ! I enjoyed making it .. it was a beautiful day and it was fun tackling the road on a 400kg bike 🤣

Hahahah I went up and down 4 times helping and old cyclist get up , you’ll be waiting for them 👍

I have a GS now but been up there a few times when I had my 1500 Wing and to be honest I found it slightly easier on the Wing than the GS. EDIT: Oops! Just noticed this video is 2 years old.

@mickemmett6828 goldwing makes it easy 🤣 but I’m sure the GS is more than fantastic as it’s probably one of the best bikes out there

Ps.. I need to go back as it’s been two years now !! Love that place

@@mrts.bike.adventures The GS is a better allrounder but a GoldWing is great at what it's designed to do . . . . . and it does so much.

Probably the best bike to do it on !! Some fantastic roads around the lakes isn’t there ! .. sounds like you’ve had a great 2022 Paul 👍

@@mrts.bike.adventures I most certainly did. I used the Tomtom rider satnav while I was up there. All I can say is I've never been down so many single track lanes in my life in all the years I've been coming to the lakes. Highly recommended.

It was a beautiful day so I thought it would be nice to get a good perspective of the pass with the drone 👍

Ullswater is my favourite too !! Hardknotts pass is definitely worth going 👍👍👍👍

We did pick the best day to do it !! 🤣👍 beautiful scenery though

Fantastic!! 👍👍👍👍👍

Yes definitely no problem for the super fjr!! Keep good distance from anyone in front and it’s a nice ride 👍 have a great summer 👍👍

It’s a free for all at busy times , can’t trust anyone for courtesy ! Every man for himself 🤣

Hahaha yes I’m very sure there are roads that put it to shame 🤣 it’s a lovely stretch of road and I did pass that pub , looked worth a stop next time 👍

Haven’t you been !

Thanks 👍 was a fantastic road to ride , scenery was epic ! I need to go back

I did it on a silver wing and come so close to dropping the thing!

@@dartmoormole it is easy for it to go wrong isn’t it ! The goldwing did it easy as the weight is so low , it almost felt like I was cheating 🤣 my friend on the bmw found it more challenging with a higher centre of gravity. I also have a friend has a lovely silver wing 👍 quite a rare bike

谢谢

Not the best roads for that type of bike 🤣 was a fun day though

Hey Dave ! It was a great day , went up and down several times , it’s fantastic on a nice sunny day isn’t it .. the goldwing made it easy being as the weight is so low .. I don’t have any complaints about the goldwing and I find the throttle response lovely.. it’s all about how you use it , the fuelling is perfect I find , I mainly have it in tour mode and sometimes in sport.. thanks for the kind message .. I love making the vids for memories

🤣 sounds like a bad day!! I guess we were lucky with the weather .. so many throw the bikes down on that road it’s crazy.. one bad move and your day is ruined ! Glad you made it home to tell the story

The k1600 and goldwing are very different!! I’m not even sure if you can compare because they are so different.. the goldwing is very much more laidback compared.. the bmw is faster, more agile and eager . The goldwing is more sit back and enjoy the ride with the engine bumbling in the background

I took my K1600 GT SE over it, on board footage here...kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oZOKnaZ9yOC0ZXk.html . Hardetst hing was keeping it steady on the tight apex high inline bends, the 1600Gt throttle is very eager and its a big bike to be feathering the clutch on..

@@alexwright1359 hats off, but this "road" is not quite the right one for this kind of motorbikes. I admire the courage, but I wouldn't take the risk , been there, did it, not worth it. Maybe with a pushbike, for the sake of the scenery , but the potholes don't offer this chance. It's just for ticking the box from the list, otherwise .... My 2 cents, folks .

It’s in the uk 🇬🇧 up north in the Lake District

@@wingandhog definitely worth a visit presuming it’s not raining to much 🤣 it was the first time I went , you can always guarantee some drama/entertainment on them roads

My mate on the BMW didn’t enjoy that pass , it was a bit hairy at times with the crappy roads but if you take your time it wasn’t as bad as I was expecting it to be .. also my friend wouldn’t say I’m a good rider , just a stupid rider 🤣.. there’s plenty of videos with people falling off on that road

@@mrts.bike.adventures wow that is insane. It did not look like fun😬 I am glad u made it and thank you for the vid. I will ride vicariously 🤣🤣🤣🤣

frenler çok iyi, bisiklet iyi gitti! Teşekkürler

@@mrts.bike.adventures merci,ya lastikler?

@@arslanicoz1928 lastikler harikaydı, sadece iki Dunlop veya Bridgestone arasından seçim yapabilirsiniz. Şu anda Dunlop kullanıyordum

I’ll have to take your word on that ! 🤣

Funny you say that ! There was a group of monkey bike riders that day doing the pass 🤣👍

They look like they are flashing but they are on in reality, it’s the frame rate of the camera that makes it look that way

Yes it is a DCT 👍

@@mrts.bike.adventures Thank you, I'm looking at buying a Goldwing, And really struggling on which to get, i have been riding for 40 years and wondering if I would do ok switching to the DCT ??? Low speed maneuvers you always pull the clutch in and rev the engine and release as needed to keep pace. I will ride one as soon as I can find a dealer in northern California that has a DCT demo. I would like your thoughts as you handle that extreme rode well with the DCT, we have a extreme rode up to Mount Diablo here in my area very tight and twisty and Steep, i had to work hard riding up the rode on my RT as first was to low and second gear to high, it was a work out with my wife on the back. Thx for responding. Love your vids.

@@bayouboy8644 I’ve have all sorts of bikes over 30 years , I love the dct , I brought it without even trying it so it was the first time for me to .. and to be honest I don’t even think about it any more other than when I’m in slow traffic and stopping where it makes life a lot easier . It make the ride more relaxing and you can appreciate your surroundings. I can’t really think of any downsides if I’m to be honest , I believe it’s quicker than the manual as it has 7 gears and your passenger with have a smoother ride not feeling any if the gear changes .. i guess everyone is different though and I’ve never ridden the gear Ed goldwing . If you’re unsure you should definitely try the gear one first to get used to the bike and then try a dct one .. if I had to buy another it would be dct personally.. feel free to ask another question mate 👍

@@mrts.bike.adventures Thank you very much for your time and knowledge on this, I'm very excited now to try it, I do ride two up 40% of the time, and eliminating the head bangs would be nice. Thanks again mate, and stay safe.

Thank you !! Must go back next year .. I’ll look forward to watching your video 👍

I find the music enjoyable. No talking needed. The videography captures the challenge

...try turning down the volume next time.

🤣

I Had a GTR 👍 hope you had a good day doing it
