Jan 2025 Metcalfe Ride
It was supposed to be a 2-day ride up through Wombat/Lerderderg/Upper Loddon/Goldfields but due to technical problems, we ended up cutting it short. Will try again in a couple of weeks.

Day 1 - Training
Переглядів 204Місяць тому
The first two days of the ORS event are training - starting back at the basics of how to pick up a bike (cause you're gonna drop it), body position, balance, throttle/clutch/brake control. It was wet this morning and tested my skills in muddy conditions. I'm loving the 450MT for this and am getting a lot of jealous looks from the big bike riders. :-)

is it a music video or a bike video??
It's a bike video with music. If it isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of other channels for you to watch.
Oh man! What a ton of fun!!
Mate of mine also snapped off his starter switch. I might look at making a guard for mine.
Yeah - it seems a poor design as it's raised relative to the switch block and easy to snag something under it. Not like switches on other bikes where you can't do that. I'll provide my local dealer with feedback about this - hopefully they improve this in future models.
Well done 👍
Looks like a nice place to train. Good stuff.
Hi Alan, Great Video, Have fun. Hope to see you again in Europe. Maybe for another ACT? Greetings Bernhard
@@bernhardhofmann-rc3mm good to hear from you, Bernhard! I’ll be back with Edelweiss mid next year for the Italy Unpaved tour if you happen to be on that one. Hope all is well, mate.
@@lastdatabender All fine here, except weather. What a pity, for the moment Italy Unpaved is not on my schedule. But ACT Balkan / Pyrenees / KTM Ralley in Romania and for Italy 2 On Road (BOI&CUI) in October. Hope to CU on whatever occation. greets
Hey there. Great footage. Looks like a great weekend. Can you advise which routes you had taken?

Very nice terrain. Great footage. Well done
Thanks Alan, I am on the next tour so I will follow your videos
What happen to the stock mirrors
@@jackchristodoulou197 the right side one snapped off when I dropped it the other day. 😢
@@lastdatabender i don't miss much I brought the same mirrors for the 690
$hithouse indeed!!
love the both camera angles Mate, well done.
Very well captured mate, loved each one of those crossings.... Unforgettable.
Hi. How does the CF feel on those sorts of rides? I’m on a DR650 at the moment and I’m wondering if your bike does it easy or if it feels like hard work. Thanks
I find it a very easy bike to ride in this style of terrain. It’s (obviously) lighter and more nimble than a big ADV bike - I also have a GS1250 which is incredibly capable but more work in the technical stuff. The CF is really well balanced, feels planted on the faster flowing sections, and has a fun amount of power which is why I replaced my CRF300 Rally with it.
@@lastdatabender thanks mate. That’s great info.
Looked like a great day Al 💪😊🤘
Great day out, bike sounds like it’s doing it all well…. What size screen is the Carpuride?
@@OzzyADV it’s the 7” model.
@@lastdatabender ah thought it might be, fits nicely, looks factory.
It was a great day
Which is the name of the app you are using at the begining of the video for create the track? Amazing video!
The app is called Ride With GPS - check out the route details here: ridewithgps.com/trips/181159815
Fantastic mate I enjoyed the journey see you when you get home riding off-road to Trentham might be very boring for you now
Woohoo🎉🎉🎉 well done mate! Another adventure under your belt.
He made it look easy to pick up😂
Hitting the big time mate now have a UA-cam channel i have subscribed
related to Geoff Eldridge by any chance? anyhow.....great sum up of the bike in the description and seeing it cruise easily at 112 was good to see; i just placed an order for mine today; Two weeks and it should be in the shed getting a thorough pre-delivery and a get-to-know-you day; seems China has hit the nail on head with this bike; i haven't read a bad word about it anywhere.
Mark by the way.
Hi Alan The scenery looks amazing and some dirt roads thrown in to boot. Thank you for sharing.
On Top of the World😊 Roc de Fraussa/France👍😍
You have nice countryside there, great exploring. Nice group of bikes, too.
It will be interesting to see the long term reliability of these bikes. They look very promising.
long term reliability is a mystery with all new bikes...i've seen brand new KTM's blowing smoke from the first moment they are started; i've seen brand new WR Yamahas with engine failure in under a 1000K's....brand new $25K Harleys with broken gearboxes within the first month; not trying to sell this little off-roader but i haven't read a bad thing about it anywhere.
We've got the same bike, great choice buddy!
Really good looking bike! Can't wait the CFMOTO release this bike in Canada, definitely will be my next bike! Enjoy Alan!
Looks like an excellent ride mate. I've just bought the 450MT as my second bike for more dirt focused ADV. That route looks wonderful, can you share the GPS file?
Sorry - just saw the request for the GPX. You can see the route here: ridewithgps.com/trips/181159815
@@lastdatabender Awesome, thanks mate!
Great Vid - I enjoyed the music and this different approach.. Strokes for Folks :)👌
Just waiting for mine (in France). I’m sure it’ll be a very nice surprise. Good road (and off road of course) to you all. ✌️
I'm really thinking about putting in an order. I think this is the bike that will get me back into riding. Great visuals, Your joy comes through, but sorry, I find the music way too intrusive. Intro and outro with engine and exhaust on the ride for me. Have a great time. Happy riding.
Good job Allen, I'm loving mine. It just keeps getting better the more i ride it. I do ride out there a fare bit . great riding. I can say these bikes are so popular the vid i made had 10,000 views in 2 days. Keep them going mate just subbed.
