One Old Man Riding
United States
Приєднався 6 кві 2021
One fifty plus rider who took thirty years off of motorcycle riding. I have been regularly buying, selling, and riding both on and off-road recently. While dual sport riding is my preference, I am spending more time on the road than I originally planned.

KTM 390 Adventure | IMHO if there is one thing the East Coast lacks, it is Adventure Rally's. We have more than our fair share of Harley / Cruiser Rallys, but we need more adventure ones.

KTM 390 Adventure | When Duke asked if I wanted to head to Troy North Carolina, in December, my first thought was "Didn't it SNOW there yesterday???"

I met Duke at a random campsite on my way to the Palmetto ADV Rally, and let me tell you, he is a very interesting fellow. Friendly, funny, smart as a tack, and t...

Oh come on now!! A New Yorker sleeping in his camper van in the southland where it's warm? Shameful, just shameful i swear. 😂
It was very cozy in the Van when I woke up Dave, 26! SPRING weather! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding It was even more cozy when I woke up. It was about 95 degrees in my tent. Those Mr. Buddy heaters work like a charm let me tell ya. 😂
It was a awesome weekend hope to see yall next year
I love the old farm/country roads, cow smells, don't mind it at all, reminds me of milking cows with my grandfather in Ohio. You are very lucky to be able to ride those country roads with only a random side by side. Perfect day.
Very nice roads. This looks like the type of riding I enjoy. Thanks Frank!
ROB!! Us city slickers would kill for those roads 🤣
Beautiful through there, cold or not!!
Hello Patrick, a nice area. Though maybe not this time of year... - Frank
@ snowmobile!!!
PATRICK!!!!
@ Dave!
😂😂 I have run into a few of those UTVs, if they don’t know you’re there, it can be a wait…..
Don’t know if I can handle those yankee drivers, the last time someone from my family was that far north there was a war going on. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great vid Frank, Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you and your family
DOC650 is a cold weather beast!
Seriously. He never complained at all! Swabby made it sound like he was about to die! 🥶🥶🥶 - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding 🤣😂🤣
I have found the RallZ front to be an awesome tire. (Likewise, the Adventure or RallZ rear) Ive put roughly 50 to 60,000 miles of riding on them, either on my old 990 or current 890. 60% off pavement, on BDRs, CDR etc. I get between 5000 and 6000 miles out of them consistently. Most of my riding is the mountain west, tons of rocks. Zero issues on pavement, but I absolutely ride recognizing I am not on street tires, and corner and brake with that in mind. It is not intended to perform like a street bike tire. Wrong tool for the job. I dont expect a mini van to perform like a lifted rock crawler jeep off road, or visa versa.
👍👍
Heya John. Minus three on the way to a client today, how is it out west? - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding 11 degrees and crunchy, but sun is out being bright but not warming
I swear, them yankee drivers are just rude hogging up the whole roadway like that!!! You should beep your horn and rant about it! 😂😂
SWABBY!!
@@verbalwidget0919 What!!!! I did nothing!!😂😂
The problem with Hondas are that buying new is stupid, since buying old is the same. Also driving honda is so boring. I went for 390 adv instead. Hopefully in 4 to 5 years they will sort out the problems of the bigger brother and then I will buy it.
Ran these on my klr years ago. Really liked them!
In Canada I'd like to see the Adventure S as an option to lower the cost, like India has.
Frost on the bikes???
It's was 15 overnight. Unfortunately I forgot my cover at home! - Frank
I would love to see these guys in action first hand, but I might never do a UA-cam video again! They would prove to me just how lacking I am at creating content!!!
We will need to get on the phone sometimes about this. I count being able to see professionals like Stev, Chris and Jason work as one of the best experiences I have had. It was amazing. - Frank
@ I’m good with a phone call about this, but I was being sarcastic. I would love to meet, ride, and LEARN from those guys. They seem like so much fun!
@@Motoramblings This would force you to engage with other riders! Sounds risky! Could involve a Motorcycle Rally! - Frank
@ 😂🤣😂 I never get involved with strangers I met through the internet!!!
@@Motoramblings Solid policy! - Frank
Frank looks the most sad 😢 Cheer up buttercup
I was riding a KTM, of course I was the saddest Kyle, I had no idea what would break before I made it home! - Frank
Your comment about the food🤣😂 just like an airplane!!!!
Hello Tracey!
That looked like a great adventure!
Hello Tim, like Timfest without the credit card camping! - Frank
It was fun following this adventure. Very likely a part of the world that I will never see in person. Thanks Frank, for taking me along!
Hello Rob, North America has so many beautiful areas. I wish I could see them all! I am glad I can bring some of them to YT. I myself enjoy seeing areas far from me, like your mountains and canyons! - Frank
Did you have to bring your bike straps?
Of course!
Thanks for the big shout-out! Cool to see these remixes.
Hello Jason, the original were over twice as long. I wanted to bring the series back with a tighter edit! And it was a great trip down memory lane for me as well! It was an amazing trip! - Frank
First off the gen two seat isnt uncomfortable and second the aftermarket seats will remedy that. All the other benefits of the gen 2 over gen 1 will make you forget about that small issue if you actually ride the new bike. I rode 40k miles on a full bolt on 2012 fz1 and i rode it to max capabilities more often than not. Definitely one of my favorites and I personally owned 5 motorcycles at one time this year including a 2021 gsxs1000 and a 2009 fz6s .
Hello Jeremy, just an opinion Sir. I have never found the Gen 2 seat unbearable; I just never find it as comfy as the Gen 1. The Gen 1 seat is absolutely the mist comfortable OEM seat I have owned. Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
@OneOldManRiding I know the gen 1 is comfortable, similar to my fz6s honestly, but I would never go back to a gen 1 after owning the gen 2. I do ride them hard though which is why I appreciate the gen 2 so much. It is a proper sport bike but comfortable enough to ride high milage!
Was great riding with you Frank! See you at the Palmetto ADV Rally!
Hello Matt, it was a pleasure meeting you, and honestly great to see how happy you were on that 390 Adventure! See you in SC! - Frank
Riding up that bank at Low Water bridge is kinda like a Uwharrie right of passage for adventure bikes. 🤣 Awesome to see some video of the area. I really need to get an action camera one of these days.
It was a great ride Duke, job well done! You can usually grab an action cam for very little on Facebook marketplace. New models come out every year, and folks sell the old ones. Even though very little features change year to year. - Frank
Hi this is a great help. I bought something similar but when braking the fender runs hard on the front tyre at the rear of fender. What was the name of the fender you mentioned ? I have the plate just need a new fender. Thank you
Hello, it's an Acerbis fender from Amazon. Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank Fender: amzn.to/4gKNYFl
Will check out that area next time I am down there.
Hello Humnan, I certainly recommend it! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
That's a clean ass 390 Adventure!
Hello Greg, for mine it is! My 790 is actually clean! I went to the Bearded Grump school and did clean it properly before putting it away for the winter. It's never been exposed to our slated roads, so it's clean and in storage! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding How is the 390 on highway? Will it cruise at 75? I'm strongly considering getting 390 adv. Can't make up my mind, this or Honda rally? Thanks for videos.
Great video buddy. I ride in the camp in the URI quite often. If this is an annual thing and you come out next year, see if I can go riding with you. Be a lot of fun
Hello Moto, I should be in Tennessee almost full time this summer, I would certainly like to be shown around the URI area by a local if you have room for another! Takes an extra 30m with 40 closed, but it's not a bad ride over at all. Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
Enjoyed this video Frank! Lots of great areas to ride there in Uwharrie. I would have gone with you but I was still in defrost mode 😂 It was better later on in the day. The OHV trails are a mixed bag of mellow to wild with lots of rocks 😮 Actually, riding at night there is awesome!!!!
Hello William, I completely understand. You have seen my videos, you know better than to follow me into the woods! 🤣 - Frank

I do enjoy a rocky trail...
I can’t believe I missed this
Hello Neal, sorry we missed you! I hope you were warm. 😁 Next year! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
Just seeing the sunshine makes it feel warmer than it is!!!!!💪
Hello Tracey, it was nice in the sunlight. You could feel a noticeable DROP in temps when we were under the trees! - Frank
This does look like a great area for riding. Much like central Oregon, it would be a shame not to have an adventure bike if you live anywhere nearby.
Hello Rob, having ridden out west, the East Coast requires a little more work to find great spots, but they are out there! - Frank
Those low temperatures Frank would kill an old Phoenix native like myself, but everyone was having fun and the BDR looked like a good mixture of dirt and street. Have you found out the problem on the 390 yet?
Hello Dave, the error went off the dash, and it started to generate enough power about an hour and a half in. I have not ridden the bike since this ride as I brought to to Tennessee. I am hoping it was the bitter cold! Though stator issues in high mileage 399s is not unheard of. - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding Your 390 loves you and fixed itself, that's loyalty. The 2025 KTM390's are a really a nice-looking machine, I like what they did with it.
👍👍
Warmer than NY at the time John! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding Lucky you Frank, retirement is not too far off, I will have more riding trip time then, till now, have to keep the boss happy. Staying employed until I turn 60 is a must so I can retire.
Uwharrie is a great area, most of the OHV trails are EXCELLENT ! A few are very challenging, reminds me of areas of Colorado and other BDR trails, on a smaller scale. Ride safe !
Hello Broadway, I am hoping to arrive to the area a day early next year to ride the difficult and relaxed route! Thank you for stopping by and commenting! - Frank
@@OneOldManRiding You'll really enjoy, each trail is fairly short but challenging, perfect for us older guys !!
@@BroadwayT660 Sounds good! I take more breaks riding than the young guys! - Frank
Ha! Throwback to the beginning of the TAT.
Steve sounded so excited when he looked around, and then said with a Smile on his face "We're on the TAT!" - Frank
Beautiful area!!!
Very much so Patrick! I hope you are able to find some time to ride there! By yourself obviously. 🤪 - Frank
@ 😂😂😂 Yea, by myself. I guess that guy from just across the state line won’t invite me….
Despite the cold, it looks like a blast out there!!
Mile temperature for a New Englander Patrick! You will be fine next year! - Frank
@ I’m looking forward to it!!!
