Join me on my dirt and pavement adventure, filmed on 3 cameras, riding 2000 miles on my Honda XR 650L motorcycle to journey from Denver through Hagerman Pass, Kebler Pass, to the ghost town of Crystal, to Blue Mesa Reservoir, to Crested Butte.
I crashed my drone on the final day of my trip, so I apologize for the non- 4K drone footage in the video. My next video will be back to full 4K.
Bike Review: This was my first time riding a dual sport motorcycle (as opposed to my usual Triumph Bonneville), and the Honda XR650 made it easy. It coasted over the baby heads and sand of some of Colorado's major passes. On the highway it was much more comfortable than I expected, mainly due to an upgraded gel seat. Comparable bikes: Kawasaki KLR 650 and a Suzuki DR 650S.
Locations Filmed:
Hagerman Pass - Moderate
Kebler Pass - Easy
Crystal Mill (Route 3) - Difficult
Blue Mesa Reservoir / Curecanti National Recreation Area (Route 92) - Paved
Name of Film: Mettre le Contact
