Dude, go get yourself the Sea To Summett backpacking solar shower. Packs not much bugger than a pack of cards. 10??? liter filled. Half the time I don't even use it as a shower. Just fill it, hang from a tree and have running water for dishes, wash hands, wash feet before getting in bed, etc. Just did my first extended trip on the bike up to Canada, Road to the Sun, Beartooth highway, etc. I loved having the thing in camp. How long will it last leaving it hanging and full over night, not sure? Only used it for a couple weeks so far. Great video, Thanks

@billmcnamara5942 4 года назад

Good job, I always over pack and end up giving things away or mailing home after a week. I like the way you keep things that don't change in size in the panders and bags that grow or shrink o top. I always went to keep the weight low and balanced. Now you got me rethink things.

@brunobastin1628 4 года назад

I have bought my Veken cubes a week ago for my long motorcycle trip. They look great and handy, thanks for the tip ;-)

@n8tim275 4 года назад

@streetrider11 4 года назад

Perfect timing on this video, I'm leaving on my 10 day trip Friday morning and I'm still scrambling to get the last minute things. Gonna have to get one of those folding bowls is a great idea. I'm running out of space fast on the little 250.

@ericsweetadventure 3 года назад

I just shared this video with some friends as we plan our first reasonably remote ADV tour north of Lake Superior in Ontario Canada. We are travelling old logging roads and trails and staying in hunting lodges and cabins for the most part (no camping) but the efficiency of your clothing choices has been very helpful. Thanks for doing what you do, hope you're well today, I have watched most of your videos and altered some of my habits based upon your shares. Thx again.

@ADVScott342 4 года назад

Pretty much the same packing I do I'm just quite a bit less organized and allways tend to over think and pack on most trips I guess it's the anticipation and waiting. Great video 👌

@jeffwalker1322 4 года назад

Tim, try the farm to feet brand socks. They are great socks. Sam’s club also sales a 75% marino wool sock that come in 4 packs. Figures out to around 4 or 5 dollars a pair. These are what i wear daily. I once wore a pair for a whole week just to see if they would get stinky. Turn them inside out every night and allow them to dry and no funk in the morning. You are living my dream sir. I have figured out how to do it yet but, I’ll get there. I pull a trailer behind my electra glide. Yes, i do take that bike on long gravel and hard packed dirt roads. Yes, i avoid mud. Not the right bike for mud. My wife rides with me most of the time.

@PatsAdventuresTravels 4 года назад

Good video Tim! I am finally a GSA owner and using your videos to help me figure out how to get my bike set up for my Alaska trip in 2020! When you're in Ohio look me up

@roger4375 4 года назад

Thanks for the tip on the packing cubes. I ordered 2 sets from Amazon @ $16.99 each. I am currently planning a road trip to Alaska with Dead Horse at Prudoe Bay as my final destination. These will come in handy not only as a means of organizing what I take but also to prevent the natural desire to over pack.... which I struggle with.

@JohnSmith-vb6jx 3 года назад

As soon as you mentioned Veken packing cubes I paused the video so I could go purchase the same set. I have been looking for a set and almost bought one at Cabela's today. This Veken set gave me 4 more bags at about half the price. Glad I waited and saw this video. Thanks Tim.

@RoadDogSteve 4 года назад

Ordered the cubes... Better than grocery bags... Lol... Good informative video... Thanks

@roger4375 4 года назад

My second time watching this video. All good choices for you in selecting your travel supplies, food and clothing. I will definitely be taking a page from your book when I do my “final cut” of things I am taking with me. 👍. Roger

Dang, I need narrow down my camping gear. I pack like 3x what you're carrying. Thanks for sharing Tim.

@pwestjr 4 года назад

I am with you you on that. I being the kitchen sink and microwave so I am also working on minimizing myself.

@johnsanford3596 4 года назад

Rumour has it that the best way to minimize the gear you carry is to do a 3 month thru-hike, backpacking. Lots of RU-vid videos covering how much stuff people started with, and how much got left/mailed home as they went along. Do that, then you'll KNOW what the minimum is, rather than taking a bunch of stuff "just in case." (full disclosure: I have a Bushtec trailer with 220 cu ft of storage. I tend to pack big. My Scrambler though doesn't have a hitch, so I'm figuring out how to pack with have the storage that Tim has. The sleeping gear is the big space hog.)

@JDeCarlo 4 года назад

Tim, I was very excited to see that you remade the packing vlog! It’s even better than the last one! Thank you for so much hard earned advice on packing. It always amazes me to see how much you pack into your bags. Why did you decide to not use a top box?

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

Thanks John, glad I could finally replace that video. The top box was too much weight, too high up. Plus it caught a lot of side wind. The secure space was nice, but I dont miss it.

@JDeCarlo 4 года назад

Forty Times Around Thank you, Tim!

@pierreeversole265 4 года назад

Like most people, I tend to overpack. However, with your help in learning to downsize. There are two things I've found that I can't scrimp on. 1. The mattress pad. 2. Camping chair. I'm older and can't get out of the small camping chairs... so I still pack a larger folding camping chair. I get the smallest, lightest one I can find. It's a little wide, sitting across the bije, but only a little more than the panniers. Great video... I've learned a lot about every aspect of travel, camping.

@MattHeere 4 года назад

Loving your channel Tim. Has me inspired to take some longer trips on the 2-wheeler. One tech tip that might make your life easier. Get an app called "Open Camera" and ditch the Samsung camera app. Open Camera will let you lock down the focus, exposure, and white balance so that you don't get all those little "blips" where the camera app thought it knew better than you...

@VikingBagsYT 4 года назад

@ronf572 4 года назад

Hi Tim, really enjoy all the videos. Just wondering if you have done or would consider doing something on rain gear or "staying dry" tips? Aspiring adventure rider here and am a bit overwhelmed by all the choices. What can (or should) double as everyday riding gear that is water resistant/waterproof and when you need the rain suit and other gloves/boots. Need to buy gear sensibly and don't want to break the bank unnecessarily. Not planning on riding in heavy stuff or winter but don't want to get caught unprepared. Looking forward to reading your book. Thanks and stay safe!

@norsefalconer 4 года назад

Great stuff! Always love to see how others pack. I was surprised to see the Sea to Summit sleep pad eliminated. For US viewers, Darn Tough and Wigwam socks are made in the USA. Expensive yes, but high quality and buying from either helps keep jobs stateside. I have Wigwam, not sure on their warranty. DT have a lifetime warranty. Btw, $20 for a set of packing cubes is a good price.

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

I love the Sea to Summit sleeping pad, I miss it. I'm trying to test out some other stuff in different price ranges and features. This one is small and cheap, not so sure beyond that... it does the trick for now, review coming soon.

@Debbie-ee2oj 4 года назад

really interesting, jess, I just spent a week in France and I took more stuff than that..but then I am a girl and I need my make up bags. and lots of changes of clothes, and shoes and hair products and...........definately getting those packing cubes..another great vid babe.x and its nice to see your face..lol

@JBMotorrad 4 года назад

Curious about hotel choices and why. I am going on a long trip next spring/summer overlap, and will be hoteling the entire trip. I'm looking for economy, but at least a little quality and motorcycle friendly - like letting you park under the overhang / check-in areas overnight, letting you refreeze some ice packs for coolers, etc. I have found in my car travels with a pet dog that La Quinta provides some nice rooms for less money than you'd expect. I haven't stayed at one on the motorcycle yet. Thanks for all your tips! Safe travels!

@robing4712 4 года назад

JB Motorrad Hi. I hope you don’t mind me chiming in. I do about 50-50 camping and motels on long road trips. I usually start looking for a motel around 5 or 6pm when I have a decent idea where we can get to. I use a few travel websites. I look for the older motels, one or two stories, u-shaped with parking just outside the door to the room. Little mom and pop places with good reviews. They tend to be cheaper and more accommodating. I like to call and request a ground floor. This strategy has worked well. There are some real gems out there if you look. Have a great trip!

@thomasblock1164 4 года назад

@GeezerWheels 4 года назад

Great vid! I've been camping since I was a teen, often wilderness. For riding/travel I've found something I love but have not seen before. "FEBREZE" IS GREAT PRODUCT! They make air freshener and fabric freshener. I use either/both the same way: spray my do-rag, jacket and any "multi-day" clothing like shirts, etc. The Febreze keeps things smelling GREAT. I have 3 do-rags that I wash - only 2 days in hot weather before it stinks! But with Febeze I can use the same do-rag for 5-7 days (commuting, maybe 2 - 3 hour rides). It is a medium size spray can and takes very little product to "wet" the cloth / jacket, etc. I won't be without it (but never used it on sox - I'll have to try that). Amazing product - give it a try. (Currently using "Tide" and "Downy" scent. -Ray, in the wilderness near Durango.

@dreamrider2956 4 года назад

Great video as usual Tim. Have you determined the weight and does play any significance to fuel consumption or handling, on/off road? Lastly, do you have a comparison to what you started with, obviously you've gotten less weight and bulk down to what works for you now, 4 months in.

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

It seems fine off road, I had a few issues in some really rough stuff with all the weight but it's not as heavy as it looks. Fuel economy is definitely affected.

@SolivagantJourney 4 года назад

I was wondering what your opinion on the forma boots are? I really like the look and have seen you talk about them before but I am wondering about the level of protection bc I have heard they aren't as good as the Alpinestar toucan with goretex but those are almost double the price... Also I started using the packing cubes and jetboil bc of you! It's made this very nice for Moto camping. Thank you for all of the reviews and suggestions

@streetrider11 4 года назад

I was looking at the forma boots but went with the alpinestsars corzal drystar due to the extra plastic reinforcements. Great for everyday stuff but sometimes I feel like the protection is lacking if you want to ride aggressively offroad.

if my bike threw so many codes that I felt I needed to carry a $400 code reader/clearer I would probably be looking for a more reliable bike.

I didn't have as many different bags but I sure had a lot more stuff on board that I didn't need, and sometimes didn't even use once. :-) The food bag idea is great, I might go for that in the future. Thanks for the breakdown!

Thanks! I'm not sure on the weight, I've been thinking about weighing everything on a truck scale though.

I tried that once or twice, seems the weigh station scales don’t pick up anything that small. Now you’re a little heavier than I was but what I found is the landfill scales are more sensitive and they can tell you the weight on a motorcycle. Hope this helps.

What gopro stick do you use put in front of motorcycle

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

Just a cheap locking one from Amazon. There's a video on my channel about the camera setup on the bike

What is your total "Liter" space between side bags and rear bag?

About 100L total

How are the GoPro batteries holding up being charged on the bike?

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

Very well, no issues at all.

Tim, What's the total weight of your bag with everything, is it less than 50 pounds?

@FTAAdventures 4 года назад

The duffle is about 35 pounds.

For odor control get a jar of boric acid powder and poke a half dozen small holes in the seal. Dust the clean socks before putting them on, dust the shoes too. After bathing and applying deodorant, dust your arm pits, genitals, and crotch area.

Avoid smartwool. The elastic is crap.

@Stevens007one 4 года назад

I love smartwool... been wearing them for over twenty years .. my buddy prefers thorlos

@jeffwalker1322 4 года назад

Stevens007one wearing smartwool right now and just like the other 10 or 12 pairs i own, the elastic is gone from the tops. Don’t have that issue with any other brand. That’s why i say avoid them. Definitely not worth the $19 to $22 a pair. Farm to feet have been the best. I own 3 pairs and the oldest is about 6 or 7 years old and still like new. Seriously. I bought all 3 pairs at cabellas for about $20
