Ahhh, good to know, thanks for sharing with us!!

High level day 1, start in Babbit, take the Prospectors trail to Ely, Echo trail from Ely to Voyagaire houseboats. Then, take the trail that starts at Voyagaire to chief wooden frog campground. If you look at the trail maps and ATV maps for the area, you can put together a really awesome route. Bikes are allowed on the ATV/SXS trails. Hands down the best ADV riding I have done in MN.

They have held up much better than I thought they would. For most people, they will last many years. For me, I have worn it down a good bit in a few spots. It performs about the same as a cheaper nonstick pan you have in your kitchen. Worth the cost IMO.

Thanks! First KTM family bike I have had. I absolutely love this thing. Most fun I have ever had on a motorcycle since my first motorcycle at 7 years old. They got something right here for sure.

@ same for me, in my second season and love it…my favorite mod was to Motoz tires

The rain fly is not in contact with the tent, especially when you are in it. there is a gap. condensation runs down the inside and drips to the ground. My second video shows this a little better.

Dirt and water can pile up there, and when you open the cap, it can get in with the stock cap. The biggest thing for me is not having to use the key to open it, and the top is 100% out of the way when filling. I was not sure how much I would appreciate this mod, but I am actually happy about it EVERY time I fill up or I get dirty offroad.

but super blue you can get a way finer edge

I did not, this does not have a snorkle, and it wouldnt work if you had one

The windshield has a quick connect/disconnect. So if I am going to do some fun offroading, I can take it off. But for things like ice fishing or farm chores, I can keep it on.

Thats really upsetting to hear.

Good question! I have not worn them on real hardwood, but on everything else, I have had no streaks or issues. as long as you are not wearing the carbide ice cleats. I use the snow cleats when snowmobiling/messing around outside I use the trailtrack for everything Not Winter I use the ice track for ice fishing/icy conditions. I suggest 2 soles at a minimum. the ice track and the trailtrack.

@@LuckyLoonOutdoors ▪️ I'm thinking it might be less work switching them - and cost - to just buy separate cleats... Just bc I'll be wearing these to work & don't want to take extra time frequently switching between outsoles... Would you say the default outsoles hold up on the normal snowy grounds? & Do you have a specific brand of attachable cleats you'd recommend? Preferably ones that I can throw on & off pretty quickly... 🟥

@2NDFLB-CLERK I think the cleats that come with are just fine. I would get the ice cleats instead of some other ice cleat. They are easy to swap out, and being able to switch out the cleats is the main point of the boot. When I go ice fishing, my korkers ice cleats are with my gear, I just do a quick swap out, then head onto the ice. I have found that the traction with the regular outsoles are pretty good and rarely have to swap for ice cleats regardless.

Right now $338 with insulated pad, 7lbs 10.5oz

@@LuckyLoonOutdoors thanks for the reply. It’s too heavy for me. That’s a gallon of water. A gallon of water is 8lbs. The price isn’t that bad I would pay that but I can’t do the weight. It’s too much for long hikes. My base weight doesn’t need to go above 31lbs. I’m sitting there now with the set up I got. Take out my chair and I might could drop my weight a pound or two but even then it doesn’t make up the difference. My hammock now weighs 3 pounds. 2 and some change but I say 3. I could squeeze 5 lbs and even thats pushing it and taking a chair away. I’ll just keep looking. Maybe one day I will find one like I want!

@josephspruill1212 This one is def not the setup for cutting weight. that weight includes a rainfly, insulated pad, hammock, and straps. If you go to the lightest weight version its 7lbs .5oz. I am old enough now where I just carry the extra weight for the comfort. Even then my canoe does most of the work. Take a look at the kammock mantis ultralight. I purchased that setup for my brother. Its more tedious to get setup right but it cuts a lot of weight. the weight gap starts to close when things get colder. but otherwise its a little over 2lbs.

@@LuckyLoonOutdoors yeah you have canoe to get around in etc, I’m walking everywhere I go. I hiked from GA to Maine on the AT trail. I’ve hike the Colorado trail. The smallest was the Colorado trail. And it’s 486 miles. That three months of walking my friend, Day in day out too. So how you get around makes a big difference. When I was in the military we carried 45-50 lbs yet we didn’t ruck that far. We also got picked up along the route a lotto by heli or truck. Yet there is no river where I go. It’s nothing out a trail in the woods that leads you thousands of miles away. I hike the cdt. Next spring I’m hiking the pct and you can call me a triple crowner for hiking all three mayors in the USA. I’ve hike the one in Spain. I’ve hike all over Europe. I even hike the Himalayans before.i would like to hike all majors across the world. I don’t have to work anymore so I can take all the time I need too. Again thanks for getting back with me. I hate it wasn’t a fit for my style. I will find one somewhere. I see one before yet they wanted an arm and a leg for it. It was over $600 after taxes. I’m good they love it more than I do thats for sure. I get military discount yet it’s not enough to fix that price…..

Dang thats expensive. I never did a lot of hiking camping over 30 miles or so. Ive always done canoe camping or Army sponsored "camping". So, hearing from someone who has some time and distance in that type of hiking is great. Completing those trails is a big accomplishment! I am curious about the colorado trail. I have only seen small pieces of it, when climing to a couple peaks, and a couple short out and backs while visiting.

I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience. They pay me nothing. If you are having problems, reach out to their customer service, they are extremely helpful. My experience with this wrangler has been very positive.

I got it originally from Surefire. Its the Surefire FM33 IR filter. Specific for use with night vision devices

Definitely been extremely impressed with this bike so far.

Glad this video brought back what sounds like a good memory! The area is beautiful especially this time of year.

its not much, but its honest work.

@LuckyLoonOutdoors I'm going to pick up either the ktm 890 or the Norden 901. Are you happy with the Norden? It looks to be a very capable bike.

So I love it. I was literally in the dealership to purchase the 890 adventure R. I was watching the $$ rise. Needs a more comfy seat, needs heated grips, needs the tech pack, needs a better windshield, needs a bash plate, etc. The Norden 901 expedition is the same chassis as the adventure R. AND it has the same suspension! The suspension setup was my primary goal. I had no idea it was the same until i saw it. The Norden already has the tech pack, better seat, heated grips/seat, bash plate, better windshield, better lights, more outlets, pre-rigged for a gps, on the fly headlight adjuster and more. It was definitely a better option and cheaper if you are planning to do those upgrades. I took the Norden on a 3 day 3 night motocamping trip (video uploaded) put approx 400 miles on of atv/forest road/gravel road, dual/singletrack, water crossings, regular road. Didnt drop it once. Literally the most fun I have ever had on a motorcycle. The offroad DNA of the 890 adventure R that is its core, makes a HUGE offroad difference. It comes down to your goal. If you are planning to use it almost exclusively offroad, the 890 has a more friendly setup for that. But if you are looking for a machine that can conquer offroad, but is more comfortable, especially at speed. The Norden is where its at. They took the 890, cut out the upgrade BS, and made it more comfortable.

@LuckyLoonOutdoors wow. That's sounds great. I'm sold. Thank you for your input and advice. Also, thank you for all the great content. Keep it up. Maybe I'll see you out on the trails one day. 👍

Ohhh no worries I already saw it. thnks

Taxes did not pay for any of the event. Our Fire department does not have much funding, and our community recognizes this and supports the event. This is why the fire relief hosts the pancake breakfast every year. Funds help the fire department do things such as get new equipment or repair it. Things they have a difficult time getting funding for.

I appreciate it! This was my first trip with the new Norden, and my first time hitting the trails in that area. The trails are simply incredible, and some are extremely challenging. The camera most certainly does not do it justice.

@@LuckyLoonOutdoors I just picked up a new 790 Adventure and I'm so ready to get back up there! Jeffrey with is WR250 got me out of trouble a few times on my last trip 🤣

He was talking about that! lol! The 790 is a pretty sweet machine!

@@LuckyLoonOutdoors I'm sure he had a lot to say. He has offered to ride with me again so it must not have been too bad lol.

Isnt that crazy! The rocks and inclines are way more extreme than it looks on video!

a little, you can also get the heat deflector. Its more of an ambiance and smore machine.

Absolutely, I am glad I was able to help you out!

good to know, thank you!

If you were in the military, then you would know. Everyone knows we are there, everyone wears reflective belts to avoid accidents, and we put chem lights on the tent roping to try and avoid injury. In conditions where reflective tent roping would be a problem...we dont typically setup tents.

most of the time you can pretty well. but not all the time. If you dont have them installed quite right it can be thrown off.

Its $335 for the setup that I have. Which is 302EUR. So not sure why the price is so high for you. Even at 302EUR its still on the higher end. Worth it for me, but if it is really 450EUR where you are, thats $500 here, I could not justify that high of a price.

LOL, that happens!
