@@JJamea thanks for watching mate, 👍 I try and ride and film every week so more to come 👌

@@j0rdan9016 big one that 😂

@@dubla6314 what you mean by 1st gen?, mines a 2022, and it shakes a lot, I have snapped most of the brackets tho through pretty hard riding, you can get a heavy duty bracket and I will be doing so, but yea ; it shakes even on the road. The light is really shakey

Hahahah mate literally the best description of it 😂 the last bit, both out of breath looking at the bike on the ground 😂

Nice man!!!! I love them; mines just ran out of mukla wondering what to do with it 🤷‍♂️

@@haraldblauzahn6863 yes UAE

Keep it real 👍

@@ADVdiary Showkha area buddy

@@KamikazeJoeNYC hahaha, got rid of it mate, it kept coming lose so in the end I just took it off. I would have lost the other one too but don’t want to have to look over my shoulder to check for my pal if I’m cutting across the trail when out in front 🫡

@@Max-bn8jg thank you for the comment. You can absolutely transition from mx bikes to bigger bikes, I spent many years on mx bikes racing motorcross and then transitioned, the smaller bikes are key to learning the skills to handle the big bikes. Just take it easy , sand is hard work on the big machines , can be done but not all that fun in my experience: get your licence and get out there !

@ActionJonesT7 amazing, thank you so much for your response! I'll get on then. Weather is turning now, I'm keen to see more of the country:)

@@Max-bn8jg I have a Africa twin 750 2001 I might be tempted to sell, 44k on the clock, if your in Dubai that is

@@ActionJonesT7 I am indeed in Dubai. But it'll all take me still a while, still need to pay for a wedding first 😆 happy to reach out when time has come and we can see if you still want to sell. Thanks already 🙏

@ ooooooffff weddings will do that 🤷‍♂️😂

thanks man, get one buddy there a big dirt bike, lots of fun and a very capable machine, I have no complaints,

Yeeeaa Bro it was a decent weekend away

hey,,, scorpion enduro

@@DBOLT666 hey Damo thanks for the message, I am from Brighton so I know your neck of the woods very well, have spent many a day on the M25 and blasting around the UK countryside, it’s funny because I often miss it too. You tour to Oman sounded ace, lots of miles and you had the perfect bike to do it on, I’m curious , did you rent the bike on a tourist visa ? I would like to do something similar with my dad when he visits but I was unsure if he would be able to get a bike. If you want to get off road , get the world raid , or something smaller, it will be easier to handle if your new to off roading. And also, don’t wait to get off road, your GS although big, will do it all. Check out the UK TET, although it’s not as wild as here the lanes will give you a taste of the off-road , and freedom that you don’t experience on the tarmac. You can take the TET all around the UK and wales. I recomend wales very much. But also Europe!! Keep me updated on your adventures mate and if you come back to the UAE for a visit let me know, we can take a ride out , stay safe mate

@@ActionJonesT7 A very good morning mate, thank you for taking the time to read my comment and reply 🙏🏻 A very small world indeed, Brighton is only a short blip away and often drive past (never actually stopped to look around). Some invaluable information there regarding the World Raid, I have been humming and haring for ages as to getting a lighter bike, albeit my brother is persistently trying to convince me to go a lot smaller in size but I've loved the Tenere since the day it was released. My first bike was a 2021 MT09, however at the time I was undecided between the 09 or the soon to be released Tenere. Kind of regret my decision really but for the commute to work the 09 served it purpose well on the M25 "car park" albeit she was a thirsty girl and really wanted to get up onto the back wheel (not confident enough for that yet) 😁 Regarding the bike hire in the UAE. Ive done it on two occasions. First time, I hired a bike it was done through Touratech in Dubai. My brother did pretty much all the donkey work, sorting deposits and dates ect. I think all they needed at the time was a copy of his Emirates ID, a copy of my Passport and a copy of my U.K. driving license. On that occasion we stayed in the U.A.E. visiting places like Jebal Jais (Ras Al-Khaimah), Jebel Yabir (Ras Al-Khaimah) Jebal Hafeet (Al Ain), touring pretty much through each Emirate from Fujairah, Al Ain back through to Baniyas Island so didn't need the Orange Card (I think it's called) to be able to travel to Oman. The second time I visited we'd hired the R1250GS through another company, who the manager "Jorge" (he used to manage Touratech) migrated from called "Trails & Dust Motorcycle Tours, Rental and Training in Dubai" The process was very similar (Emirates ID from my brother, copy of my U.K. passport, Driving License etc) however as we were travelling to Oman we needed to have the Orange Card as well. No extra cost but it was needed to present to the UAE/Omani customs officials, there was another form which was dual written in English and Arabic stating that the bike was a rental hence not having an Emirates ID for the vehicle, if that makes sense. We both had to get extra motorcycle insurance (insurance company was called "Al Ain Ahlia") to cover our riding in Oman which just so happens to be a small booth in the border post (neutral/central area). Only thing I will say was that my brother did have to keep on top of things as they had a tendancy to forget dates and there was a worry that a bike would not be available upon arrival. As it happens I ended up having Jorge's own GS as he'd just shipped a load of bikes to Salaleh (Airport) for another Adventure groups arrival. And as we all know a lot the U.A.E. nationals and their "Wasta" took priority over everyone else (if you know, you know). Apart from that it was an amazing trip, some long days in the saddle, 9 hours plus in 38-42°C heat which having acclimatized to U.K. temps was a bit of a shock but loved every minute of it. Some of the random police and military checkpoints got a little uncomfortable in Oman, didn't like the chin mounted GoPros (got asked to show video footage on several occasions to prove nothing sensitive had been recorded) and I also had my DJI Mini 3 confiscated upon entry to Oman 😬 Thankfully I was allowed to get it back when we got back to the border post (after several hours of waiting and showing officials receipts), however it nearly got confiscated again by the U.A.E. customs upon returning so DONT take a drone with you would be my advice 🤣 It was amazing though and to be able to do it with your dad would make some treasured memories 👍🏼 If you venture over to Oman, I highly recommend Jebal Akhdar, Jebal Shams, Wadi Bani Khalid, Ibri, Nizwa and definitely the coastal road down to Salaleh (Duqm). So much to see and do, the locals were so friendly and humbling as well. The rental side of things in all honesty seemed pretty straight forward, so I hope that gives you a little bit of an inclination of what to expect 👍🏼 I am hoping to get back over to the U.A.E. at some point in 2025 providing things don't escalate too much with Iran/Israel and Syria, otherwise my brother and I might look at a trip to the Himalayas instead (bit of a baptism of fire) as I'll have to get a bit more gravel, off road savey before taking on that challenge 🙈😁 If I do make it out I shall send you a message 👍🏼 As they say grab the bull by the horns if you get the chance 😁 Once again, really appreciate you taking the time to reply and wish the very best in managing to get your dad over and on two wheels. I look forward to seeing more of your escapades. Keep it rubber side down. Kindest regards and stay safe 🙏🏼 Damo

@@DBOLT666 Hey Damo, thanks for the message really appreciate the response and all the info, apologies for my late reply its been one of those weeks, IF YOU HAVENT STOPPED INTO BRIGHTON, MAKE SURE YOU DO, PIC A WEEKEND WITH NICE WEATHER AND TAKE A RIDE DOWN THERE, VERY NICE. Sorry about the caps haha. Yes I have visited Shams, Nizwa and much of the north of Oman, I took my Africa Twin XRV750 on a 1000 mile trip down there in December, went as far down as SUR. I actually know Jorge, he rides with us sometimes! Again small world. Anyways thanks for the info,, im now looking forward to showing my dad some of the Middle East by motorbike, and thanks for the support for my channel, its much appreciated, Stay safe bro

Thanks brother, I apreciate it, as always with camera footage it doesn't show the real savageness of the rocks or hills lol

@@nathan.kayne21 nah it’s fine man, you gotta give it the beans tho, and a new tyre on the rear would help lol

@@ActionJonesT7 790 adventure or T7? What would be your recommendations

@@nathan.kayne21 T7, iv never owned a KTM but, for me too much tech that’s unneeded on the ktm, plus every time my friends take there Ktm’s in water they stop , the Yamaha is so good man

@@netalantan4609 yea she’s a bit soft if I’m honest , my mate has installed stiffer springs and that helped a lot, I may well do the same, that 1290 R tho, beast buddy !

​My T7 wash way harsh allready, installed a cartridge, and rear springs, and even got wors ​@@ActionJonesT7

@@netalantan4609 nice one man, how is it now?

Coming from a Triumph Explorer 1200 to a 1190 R the Ktm suspension is superior and you don’t have to manhandle the bike.

@@joshgolo maybe a little fun bud 🤷‍♂️ but yea too much isn’t the one 😅

@@sawdog007 hundred percent agreed mate, there was 4 of us on the ride and the chap towards the end hasn’t ridden with us too much, we did warn him that it would be a tough ride , we all mucked in to help him through but he was out of his depth, at that point I think learning goes out the window and it’s about survival, haha, anyways thanks for the comment dude 💪

@@daveslens hahah once your in there’s no escape 😂 the only way out is to ride out! I admit I like the ast flowwy stuff more but can’t resist a good challenge. And the T7 does it all , safe riding buddy

Just waiting to see one at a dealership close to me. Went to an ADV rally here this year and 100 riders were there, almost every kind of motorcycle, T7 in my future maybe!?!

Nice man!! And thanks. Maybe we could meet one day when I come to Saudi on the bike!! Let me know when the channel is up!!

Will definitely do so … please do. There’s a place for you here in Jeddah if you head all the way across 🤘🏼

@@JJamea hey buddy, I was planning on it but some things came up so will miss the first round, will most likely do 2-3 and 4. Do you ride?

@@ActionJonesT7 hi sorry for the late response, yes I do ride, I participated in the first round of the rally but did not finish, looking forward for the next one, I am from Abu Dhabi

@ ohhh cool bro, good luck in the next one

@@GeneralKnowledge-xx9dg thanks bro , I really appreciate that

@@dgdsn hey buddy, it’s in the middle of no where. In the Middle East 👌

@@simonalderson6341 hey Simon thanks for the message, Dubai is great, a lot of people I feel have the wrong impression of it as a party place. I never see that side as I’m always out on the bikes. As you know it’s a bikers paradise!! I’m running Mitas Enduro Trail tyres, in all honestly they haven’t lasted very long, and I’m tearing chunks out of them in the wadis. Will go for a harder compound next time. Enjoy your T7 ! Such greats bikes!!

not sure I get what you mean lol

@@xplane7523 allways the way man!!! Literally 😂

@@joeyjohnsonson4341 hey joey, KLR650 is a great bike, super reliable and easier to handle than a bigger adventure bike. If your new to the sport this is a good option as you will have an easier time learning the basics of off road riding, I see lots of people with no off-road experience go straight to a bigger bike and struggle with it off road, great shout my man 👍

@@ActionJonesT7 Thanks man! My thoughts exactly. I was also considering the Himalayan just because I really enjoy the look of it, but the klr just seems like a better bike, especially for what i intend to use it for

@@joeyjohnsonson4341 I used to live in India, proper rate royal Enfields although I never touched the Himalayan as it had 14hp, bit gutless, how ever the new 450 Himalayan could be a good shout. But if I where to choose I would go with the KLR 👍

@@joeyjohnsonson4341 The klr is a good bike but weight is the same as a t7 the new klr is actually heavier, look at the dr650 100 pounds lighter than the klr and super reliable, get yourself a good bike and go ride and have fun with whatever you choose

@@stevehicks616 dr650 is a top choice as well, but the hype around them i feel leads them to be overpriced compared to the klr

@@KamikazeJoeNYC hey buddy, thanks for the message, it’s a off road playground that’s for sure, the temps this time of year are the downsides, that day was 42 I think, the end of summer is coming now so will start cooling down in the next couple of weeks and during winter it’s clear skies , 25 degrees in the day and cool at night, perfect for moto camping ✌️

@@AntaresSQ01 yea man it was a tricky pass that’s for sure, all good fun tho 😊 thanks for the comment

Ahhhhhh thanks man appreciate the tip; I’m so new to this I was wondering how to do it but couldn’t work it out 😂

@@2WheelsFreedom update. I have figured out how to do this 😀 thanks for the tip mate

Unfortunately it’s not for sale bud

@@ActionJonesT7 looking forward to it mate. Enjoy. Getting my license done 🤞🏽😅 so hopefully should start riding

@@cmwilfred amazing mate you won’t regret it, any ideas on what bike you might go for?

@@ActionJonesT7 planning few trips, so an Africa Twin. To get used to riding and build confidence up cruising around the neighbourhood - Bullet 350. And really tempted to get a proper enduro/dirt bike to train in the dunes we have over here in Dxb 😂 so ya, full on committed

@@cmwilfred sweet man !! Love a bullet, and I also have an Africa Twin XRV 750 that I’m gonna do some videos about , great bikes!! Enjoy the process and stay safe out there 👍

Yeaaa buddy annoyingly I didn’t have my sound on so it was music for the whole vid

@@KSbai I personally think the Yamaha T7 is the best option for the mountains, it’s smaller and easier to handle, the power is just right , not too much, are you considering buying one A T7 or KTM?

@@ActionJonesT7 T7, but I think he is to high for me I'm 5’9

You could always get it lowered slightly, I’m 511 so a few adjustments and you would be fine ☝️

@@KSbai to be honest, at 5’9 you still should be totally fine

Thanks mate ♥️
