SHOULD HAVE LEARNED MY LESSON WITH FRONT ENDURO TYRES ON THE BIG BIKES. THIS IS WHY YOU DO NOT RUN ENDURO TYRES ON THE FRONT OF A BIG BIKE, HEAVEY DUTY TUBES DONT STAND A CHANCE WITH ENDURO TYRES ONLY A MOOSE IS SAFE IN THEM. CUT THE REAR TACKER ON THE SIDE WALL THERE WAS A SHARP STONE IN THE BANK WHERE TO BIKE WENT BAD LUCK ON THE REAR.

short vid. mic playing up. if you want to see more with music let me no. testing out my bad wrist.
Some pretty impressive shots there Dude!
got to get used to setting it up quick for wild life, will have to get some big bike picks, but cant bring the camera on the bike will destroy it.
I ran out of excuses to not buy one...
just buy one great bike and fun.
Oh what’s the can on that T7 Adrian ???
full leovince. best looking can out there and sounds ace.
@@adriantompson thank you mate.
How cool is that! Looking forward to meet it.
there are 10 pups left if you want one. pop round any time you want.
My wife is already having one. Born last week. Still some time to wait.
thats good 7 weeks and your pup will be with you both. then the fun begins.
@@adriantompson it will be my wife's. Since I kind of highjacked the last one. Keeping my distance.
yes they latch on to one person as the boss.
SOB! 2 flats! Good job staying with it bud.
only just held to her. put a enduro tyre on the front but think we ride to hard for it will be back on a dunlop 908rr adventure tyre. cut the rear side wall on some sharp rocks on the bank i slid into. hope you are having fun over there.
I saw when that happened. The Dunlop will hold up hopefully. Those sharp rocks will be the test. A little fun every day! You too Adrian.
@@popup1959 dunlop will take it. trails have loads of sharp rocks they are getting worse.
You were both rapid going through there - that's a lot harder than you made it look - nice ride👍
never looks as bad on camera but as you no there are a lot of rock sections up there that have big holes all in them. we do ride there a lot but it changes every ride with all the bad weather we get.
That was a belter of a run going though there for you- damn sharp bits. Great to meet you yesterday, took your advice further on down the trail and worked a treat - thx (Matt)👍
glad you tried it, got cold later on good ride back i hope. meet up again some time.
You did well to hang on to it Adrian. Expensive day out with two tyre replacements! need now!
almost got me that one, expensive day but rear tracker will be ok with a tube in front will too. but will not run a mitchelin medium enduro on again. pity because its got very good grip on rocks and mud.
This is amazing!
nice bit of flying.
There is no way I am hitting those rock slabs as fast as you, I respect my wheel rims!
you do you have too.
You boys "are extreme", full stop!! But great to watch 👍
always fun when we get going.
👌👌👌👍
thanks.
Wonderful Adrian thank you! Have you had to do any serious maintenance yet? I figure you might have 15km by now? I've only done rear brake pads, brake fluid flush, oil changes, and buy lots of maintenance parts...bearings, clutch plates, clutch cables, etc. From Connecticut, U.S.A.
21,000 miles. one clutch my fault for that. just put a new clutch cable on because it had stretched. just put a new bearing in the rear sprocket carrier. one exhaust lamba censor drowned that in a river. not bad for wear i ride. done the brake fluid flush had to free up back brake caliper. changed plugs. change oil and filters every 3,000 miles, brake pad when needed,air filters when needed. have fun charles.
@@adriantompson Thanks very much Adrian! That all makes sense for your riding conditions. I hear most skip valve checks until 30km or whatever depending on if hard starting.
valves have not been done. will do them when it goes down on power. hope to go another 10,000 miles. most people have checked them and they are in speck.
👌👌👌👍
have fun.
Well done Adrian good wee run
and all the gates open. have fun.
👌👌👍🤙
thanks have fun.
👌👍
have fun .
What size tyres are these front and back new to the t7 curently got standard tyres on good on road but pretty slippy off
if you do a lot of road work and go off road i would run mitchelin ankee wilds. if you do more off road i run a dunlop 908rr on the front and a mitchelin tracker 140 on the rear, as we go through a lot off mud and rocks. the mitchelin ankee wilds are very good on stone tracks and very good on the tar roads, a very good up grade from the str crap oem tyres. you can run 140 tyres on the stock rear rim . these are the tyres i run and are very good but othere riders will tell you a different tyre. all i can tell you is dont run motos tractionators they are hard as a stone and are crap on tar and not very good off road.
90/90/21 front 150/80/18 rear or 140/80/18 rear.
Good wasn’t it. We went Sunday morning 👍
we were going off road then came up on them so watched them most of the day. good turn out. hope they get it next year.
Permanent strugle. Respect !
good fun though.
too much climb for your yamaha
was that day. hope you are having fun.
still rockin that same exhaust mod?
full leovince exhaust. done the mod on standard exhaust a few years ago.
nice weather Adrian
makes a change not been a very good year so far, it has been very wet all summer. did you spot the face on the tree trunk its so real , its on the rear camera when i stop at the top of the hill. worth looking at it, never seen any thing looking so real. have fun bet its hot over with you.
@@adriantompson No, i cannot see it. tell me the minute and second
3min 20 to 3mins 31.
that's what i though, I saw it. :)
Fuckers! Good lane than too, someone had done it on a lane near us- 4” nail straight through.
we both had punctures with in 20 mins must have been nails put some where. wet up there good job sean had a rim lock in looked like he got a lot of grip with a flat tyre, my bike was sideways most of the way up.
Well done boys
thanks have fun.
You picked a hell of a go there mate! I see two made it up. Easy to get high sided on that steep rocky shit. Being wet made it even tougher. Did you guys get up it?
i got so far up and gave up. electorn450 got up but was not pretty but never gave up. i thought it needs to be dry before i go there again.
Wicked rough! Give em hell bud!
have fun.
Mad as a box of frogs!
not me.
😂
you boys need to have a go.
There is a bloke, who knows a bloke, who takes a BWM 1250 up there a piece of piss.
And when it's covered in ice and snowing!
bmw1250gs go up there with road tyres a piece of piss best adventure bike on the market.
they go any where.
Hi Adrian! What is the reason for the foam below the spedo?
this is for when you go through water at speed off road, it stops the water hitting you in the face. it also acts as a steering damper. but i put it there to stop water.
Thats great ride Adrian , even if the camera looking down this time !! Cheers man !!
think its me with my head down its good when i am sitting down. have fun.
Nice!! Can you please advise location
wales uk nant y arian.
That "looked" relatively easy 🤔 going by your normal standards! Where is this please? Cheers
turn right befoe carage in ponterwyd near red kite centre, follow lane up to first small pond there is a car park across in wood . you will see cars on side of road trace vid back and you will find it. nant arian again.
@@adriantompson awesome, thanks for that 👍
have fun.
@@adriantompson It'll be on my To Do, list 😀👍
@adriantompson sorry mate, I'm having trouble finding the start! 🤔 Tried Google maps, but no joy 🤬 Any chance of a just 3 words link or similar please?
Hello Adrian, amazing ride and place.
not many people up there . have fun.
👍😎👍🏍💯
have fun out there on on your adventures.
👍😎👍🏍💯
thanks roberto have fun.
Bit above my skill set! Well; waaaay above my skill set TBH 😂 Watching you guys, helps me choose suitable trails for my (very) amateur riding. Definately not this one..........yet?!🤔 Learning (slowly) on my KTM 790 Adventure. Really enjoy these videos. Keep them coming, ride safe and have fun, Grumps
keep riding and your skills will get there. better build up on some trails that get a bit harder every month. have fun.
@adriantompson thanks for the advice, more than appreciated 👍
just make it fun and dont go to mad yet.
Wow that's a tough road Adrian! I'd be nervous HA
tough road but great views up there. hope you are having fun over there.
That was good!
it was robert one for you to do sometime.
I'd like that. See what I can do healthwise. Not working as it used to. Around your area 24th June.
will take you a bit easier ride dont want any thing to put your health at risk but we can still have fun. see you in june.
A lot of ruts to catch you out along there, nice trail.
good fun up there.
not
with a nail or two.
That's where comms could be handy. And if you like quiet, just set up an agreement to only use them when a crash occurs.
yes would be good.
I see you went back to check he was ok🙄
did not no he crashed. looked for him at bottom of hill and he was coming over the top ,just thought he got held up with the land rovers.
fancy leaving your wing man behind some mate you are 😡
thought he got held up with the land rovers, seen he was coming down the hill when i looked round for him. i did not no he crashed. just held up a bit. cant see behind when off road.
Grabbed a hole lot of front brake and went down hard 😳
no sean is running a rebal front tyre adv one. and i have rode it and its crap. ask him elctorn450
I don't think so, no diving from the forks at all. Looks like it just slipped out. Awesome riding!
dan elctorn450 was trying to pass me he was 100 % not on the brakes.have fun.
It's fkin unbelievable you can do this in the UK, where TF are the dog walkers, cyclists and trekkers to complain to the council about the loud and annoying engines, to ban every fkin thing around? I'm happy for you mate, have a great ride! 😉
will do.have fun.
where is this?
RHAYADER MID WALES . ELAN VALLEY. GOLF LINKS.
Change up a gear ffs. For the riding you ate doing you are wasting fuel and ensrgy😂
nah, always good to be in a flexible gear
you need to ride up there it looks smooth but its not . you need the power to launch over the big rocks and the sharp edge rocks you do not see on camera , i have a lot of torque with my bike but some trails you need to be in a gear lower to jump things in your way as if i was hitting that stuff in a higher gear i would not have enough power. do not care about fuel . have fun.
Luckily I was wearing my Trump brand "real men wear diapers" underpants to stem the flow!
THAT WAS LUCKY YOU HAD THEM ON.
Thats a great start and end to a work day!
wish every day was like that. have fun.
