Thank, this was really helpful. I need this to my Alaska trip.

Why you change the currency if you from SA 😂

Great car except RUST!

Honda ..reliability .

I have had the Samurai on my bucket list for awhile. Is it just me or do the interiors always look “dusty”?

I can go for about 1 minute.. after about 20 hours of static balance practice ALONE! Lol.. when you start out also try turning your bars one way “I did to the left” while holding your front brake. That’s a confidence builder. I was better sitting down at first too.. scooting in closer to the tank also helped me. You’re a pretty fast learner. For people struggling try what I said and it can take awhile but you will 100% get it down.

I have a BMW650gs and a Honda XR650l. Between the two, for travelling the bmw is better with the cush drive rear wheel. I prefer the XR due to its ground clearance and lighter weight, maneuverability in tight spots offroad and smiles per mile.

Wow sir how much for the car or what is value/price? Thanks

Broer! Jy is so afrikaans as wat ons kom! Baie dankie vir die video, ek koop moontlik my samurai binne die volgende paar weke!

Sorry, but can't listen to your horrible voice

Hot tip for all you 08-09 Gen 2 owners trying to sell your bikes, mention oil-consumption in your ad. We all know about the problem. So either say you corrected it or quantify the problem in an honest sounding way. Ignoring it will only encourage potential buyers to think the worst---that the bike has a problem and that you are not honest, with the latter being the bigger problem.

my prado had the same issue with the heater control. if you get some help you can pop the hood and get them to look at the back of the engine in the middle of the car above the fire wall in the engine bay while you twist your heater knob they should see the cable move and see where it gets stuck than its as simple as freeing it up.

2010 first dohc model, sold a few years ago 178.000km. Friend is riding it now and there are 210.000k on it (stll original clutch) only problem leaking rear ESA shock... no real other issues. Even the fuel gauge is original. Replaced the seat immediatly after buyng

Excellent video. No one should shy away because of the lower ball joints - just need to regularly check. We didn't get the diesel for a few years later here in Australia. Happy travels!

Cool...ride

2:28 Grey hornbill ? 🥰

My opinion is that you ride a dual sport bike on shorter rides, usually with friends, carrying very little and riding faster, more "sporting" because help is near at hand should you break down or get injured. You ride an ADV bike slower because you are carrying more gear and/or help is not nearby so you don't risk crashing or breakdowns. And any size bike can be used in either way but dual sporting is much more fun on a lighter bike, and traveling is more comfortable on a heavier bike. Generally speaking of course.

I just bought an XR650L! I rented one in Ecuador for my first solo 3 week ride and just loved it. Mods are cheap and easy in the US (front sprocket, bigger gas tank and rear subframe support is all I’m doing.) No it’s not a perfect bike. And not right for everyone. Who knows, I may find out it’s not the bike for me. But it’s my second bike, and I hope to modify it into a RTW machine. I am NOT however looking forward to approaching head on a huge semi truck at 60MPH with a 30 MPH side wind that is the norm in Kansas. That’s what my Gold Wing is for. 😂 It’ll be fun to have a bike I can work on and have fun with. (Oops! Really old post! 😂)

What an amazing adventure! I agree with your choice of bikes for the trip, something new, inexpensive, and very common. It makes it easier to get parts and repairs and if you have to abandon the bike or it gets stolen it is not a big loss. I wouldn't choose to travel as quickly as you needed to but we all have different time schedules and it is much better to go and have to travel faster than to not go at all. Thanks for making this very interesting video.

I'm sitting in one right now runs like a new car we call it the father of the Fortuner, Tell you something interesting we using it at construction site, but when I brought it came with one proper shaft missing, don't understand why but it doesn't affect how it drives

My 3.4 averages 18L/100km

You haven't had wheel bearings yet done yet? Wait till you see how much those cost....

Diesel with manual is perfect combo

No rear diff lock? That’s like driving a first gen Mercedes ML from 90s

Gees you guys have a ton of cables all over the place.

My KDJ95 with 1KD-FTV engine on mixed driving, but mostly long haul driving gets between 0.85 to 1.0 liter pr 10km. That is without roof rack, R151f transmission and about 31" all terrain tires. Thats around 11.76 to 10 km/liter for you ZA folks. Was a couple of weeks in Namibia 2 years back renting a 2KD-FTV hilux with rooftop tent and manual transmission and it really wasn't bad on fuel consumption. Seems that common rail really does wonders.

Would you shed some light on fuel consumption differences and also tank sizes Watching from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼

These prados are tanks love them.

I think it a nice car and a trusted car my grandfather drove one of these I like 👍 this car

it would be great to see fuel comparison of your trip

Great cars.. Can't go wrong with Prados. I have the 120 myself with the V6 petrol. Not too fond of diesels but that's a personal preference.

Two epic rides! 🤩

You're a South African, aren't you? It's rare to see my species on UA-cam

have you done the upgrade yet?

Mooi man...dankie

XT is my 1st love. I had a XT550 22 years ago, was a great bike. I like the air cooled moddels. I couldnt find a 600E but just found and purchased a '99 DR650.

I have 100,000 miles on my 2010 1200GS. No major problems. An easy bike to maintain.

Great idea to review the AG200. Thanks. What is fuel economy like? How far can you go on one tank of fuel? Cheers

How tall are you ?

Hello from România🤝! Great Suzuki Samurai, a car that does its job well 🧐👏👏👏. I also have a 1996 Suzuki Samurai SJ 80 👍.

Only use ethanol free gas

👍

👍👍👏

We had a P200X back in the day, I think about '1985? Was pretty solid and reliable.

New spark plug and a carburetor going over and I reckon you got a real gem there.

I have a 1992 Suzuki Katana in Indonesia, a 4x2 version. Good car even today, parts are really cheap and so much still available, even interior trim. It is properly built on a seperate chassis as an SUV. Being light it drives fine on 1 litre up to highway speed

Thanks. Knot the strap around the fridge handle and it won't slide around.

Hi. Do you have a video on how to bypass ABS pump?

I received my Rockfox full set crashbars yesterday. Very good quality and definitely better protection compared to OEM parts.

Great video!Thanks!
