hey josh your rear axle is in the wrong way, if you put it through from the left side your snail cam adjusters will be pointing up and won't get knocked loose.
Na mate haunted stream track is one of the most popular, almost as much as blue rag and golly goats. So glad you were able to get a video up, and not there’s three ways this story was told and it’s fantastic. But this is the high country. It’s not like the north coast where you go up a 100mt hill and down again. There’s climbs here km’s long and the same going down. Many try and too too much too fast and thier bodies fail them. Thanks for sharing man and epic trip
Darn good edit Josh 😁 even with the audio stuff up 😎 , was great to watch and your telling of the ride was quite interesting 🤔 seems you a a natural story teller mate 👍 keep well Sir and ride safe-ish 😉🍺
Audio issue happened to me on my Simpson trip too. It’s actually been a good thing, forces you into expanding editing skills etc. that’s what I found anyway. Cheers
Josh, a genuine shame about the audio issues but I have to say you’ve done an excellent job recovering the story telling aspect of the footage. From the viewers perspective it looks and sounds perfect so don’t beat yourself up too much over it. 👍👍
mate absolutely loving your channel, I currently have a Africa twin but after having it for a while I m thinking of downsizing and going the Drz 400. I live in Brissy and am just looking ti have a lot more day and over night adventures with matbeabig ine once a year. Keep it up and great to see you loving the old technology.
amazing watch as always josh 🤘 i think every adventure ride should come with a 'lance', that guy picks up your spirits as well as your bike! watta unit 😉
Awesome video mate been waiting to watch your version seen the other boys videos but always enjoy your videos. Hopefully heading down at Xmas time to do most of your route and can’t wait 🇦🇺👍💪
your airbox has a one way duck bill valve on the bottom to let dirt and liquid out, if it has some junk stuck in it it won't stop water coming in. and the side cover on the airbox isn't 100% waterproof either, it will stop water coming in during a crossing but if you stop water will slowly find it's way in given enough time. another reason for the water if your top vent hoses are pinched or ran into the airbox it can pick up water from the bottom vent hoses.
Thanks mate Water wasn’t high enough to get into the air box. I have re routed the Carby hoses so I am thinking that the water crept up the two hoses that remain pointing downward while I sat stationary for a bit
Check out the breather tube routing from your carburettor, this is often how water makes it into the carb or the bike cuts out in a water crossing. There should be plenty of info online.
I’ve had it done for ages mate. I did a video on it myself 😂 Bike would of cut off much earlier from that. Having the bike turned off for a minute or so I think water may have crept up the two hoses that remain pointing down or came through the fuel filter somehow.
That would’ve been heartbreaking realising the audio failed however you made a great video and voice over to make it entertaining and still showing us the adventure 👍🏻
Great video Josh, you and Lance have inspired me so after 30 years off the bikes I have bought my own drz and myself and 3 mates are off to the Cape in July. Next question is what's the link I need to buy your gpx files please
Got my DrZ a month ago. Absolutely loving your videos. You’ve probably been asked 1 million times but are you running the stock ratios or have you changed sprockets? GC to Inskip is a long way on a bike.
Thanks mate It’s not normally an issue. 2 batteries a day is usually all I need but I have about 3 in my kit that are damaged and weren’t holding charge on this trip.
having a battery bank allows you to leave the camera on, so you don't have the 3-5 second delay when you hit record. I run a 20000mah battery, it never runs out, and can even change headsets during the lunch break. try it, you will never go back to swapping batteries
