Motorcycle Camping - Everything I Took on WY BDR
Im going to use some of your ideas. Thanks
I have the same issue with lights hahah what was the solution??
Bridges and shopping Malls don't garner my attention, please show CARS!
You just passed us in the pilot on 37! You were great at Power Tour!
Thanks, exactly what i was looking for!
Nice job! Thank you for listing the parts.
Hi, I like your content. I'm Elsa from Amoffroad. Do you accept sponsored products?
Why would you leave the engine run while you’re recording?
Very nice simple setup.
what's the name of your awning where can I get one?
It is made by Overland Vehicle Systems (OVS) Affiliate Link: amzn.to/42Pg9gI
Great video, but next time could you dump the music. I wanted to hear the motor as you were lugging down those trails. Its one of the best parts of a Guzzi. The Sound!!
Nice , love the awning
Nice video 👍😎. I have same truck with 8”lift on 38s same step just a tad bit to high, would I be able to mount this on that existing step to make it easier to step up??
When you mounted the bed rails and cabinet to the walls do you screw into the metal studs for each brace or would the plywood be enough to anchor it?
The Bed rails are screwed into the metal studs. For the Cabinet I actually screwed a 2x4 across the front wall since there are only 3 studs then mounted the cabinet bracket to the 2x4. The interior plywood is only 1/4" so I wouldn't trust it to hold much.
Thank you@@ShanesWay12
Very cool. I plan on building one this year and you've shown how simple is better to just get started camping. Love it!
You're adventurous. I've got a 05 1200. Fun on back roads but no good on the highway. Too squirrelly. If you have any older 2 strokes. I hope you do video's on them.
Loving the road trip videos, but when you’re adding in the music at too high of a volume to hear speaking.
Nice roadtrip, I've driven some of those roads and they're fun in any car. The advantage of a fuel injected 4.0 liter can't be understated though, the constant changes in altitude can send an iffy carb quickly to the grave or at least test your sanity lol
Definitely nice having fuel injection! Starting at sea level and reaching a high point of just over 7,300' coupled with temps in the low teens could of been very frustrating with an old or dirty carb. Smooth sailing with the 4.0!
I bought a '73 Hornet Sportabout this year, in January... Would you please reply with the brand name or part number of that fuel filter ? As who knows, I may have the same one in my new '73 ... And, have you discovered the fuses location ? Enjoyed watching your clips ... 😁 🇺🇸 ...
... Been thinking of posting some clips here... As I bought a running '73 AMC Hornet Sportabout Gucci X a couple months ago ... AMC's are pretty rare these days, so I enjoyed watching your clip 😁🇺🇸 ...
Go for it! They are certainly less common. I think posting some videos is a great way to document vehicles and history in general.
So you were camping in below zero weather for 6 days. How did you keep your fresh water and waste water from freezing? Was it all close enough to the camper to keep it warm enough?
Actually spent several weeks at a time below freezing (32). The cassette toilet is completely within the camper and had no issue freezing. When cold weather camping I kept fresh water under the dinette bench in 5 gal jugs which I routed the water pump intake line to. I did not utilize the grey water tanks when camping below freezing but rather dumped grey water. Tanks did have heaters installed but I do not think they would have kept up in that cold of weather. If I was building a camper from scratch I would keep all tanks within heated cavity. I believe the interior video does a better job of showcasing a few of these features.
Good coffee is important. There's a lot of driving through nothing. Take the train if you want to see every junkyard from there to here. Kinda a cool car. Would have been boring if you didn't have some trouble. I hope you do it again. Maybe next time get something a little less suburban Mom gone bad.
Thanks for watching! Definitely a whole lot of nothing. If I had the time we would of stopped at every junkyard along the way as we passed a ton of them. Did not anticipate the Hornet working so well when we purchased it but hard to complain too much about that!
The intake icing up?
6 X 12 would be a perfect size for my NEXT TRAILER. Agh... I started a 5 X 10 and it has taken, working very part time on it, 1.5 years to do what you and your other half did in three days' time in your build vid. Hahaha... how nice to have a helper and some shop shelter rather than one's driveway to work on yer rig. But I'm not too envious... I like what I'm building but it's far smaller, albeit more easily towed w/ my 1/2-ton, same ground clearance, etc... I'll have a report up in the next six months LOL. Congrats! on a great, big, simple, wonderful build! my friend. Safe travels to you both.
The mighty Hornet! Best statement ever
Dude, How did you find that Hornet with a manny no less?
Dumb luck! Fuel injection and a 5 speed. The Hornet is a super fun little driver. Not to mention 20+MPG
@@ShanesWay12 This car is so damn amazing!
Beavis and Butthead explore the great unknown in a yellow slice of old American cheese!
2:34 - For the rest of us mortals this would take about three days! You must drink some strong coffee 😂 Like the easy wiring access.
Haha thank you! Strong coffee, a good plan, and some past experience!
Were these videos like an after thought? What's the story here. How did you get to California? Is this what you went there to do, buy a car and drive back?
Lol, the videos definitely were not the priority. I've always wanted to fly across the country, find something fairly old and road trip it home. We had 6 days to make this happen. Ended up taking us 2.5 days to find something to buy. Thaks for watching!
Did the previous owner swap in a later 4.0 Jeep inline six? If so, he probably hacked and hodge-podged it in. I noticed it tried to die on you in Part 2. Would've been better if it remained stock with whatever 232 or 258 it came with.
I believe the car was originally put together in 2017. The 4.0 was completely rebuilt then and is a bolt in. The swap was actually very nicely done. Complete wiring harness from the Cherokee was installed in the Hornet. This enabled the fuel injection to be easily integrated. A few small issues we sorted out along the way but nothing major. I believe we put more miles on the car in this trip then it had on it since being rebuilt in 2017. A 2 wheel drive AX-15 was also installed giving the car overdrive and the ability to cruise 75 at 2000 rpm.
@@ShanesWay12 That Hornet has awesome potential, even with the breakdown. Sucks that you found so many other problems that the PO failed to address.
nice car
Thank you!
Very nice cargo trailer conversion👍
What kinda of heads and cam you running if you do t mind me asking?
The heads were heavily ported factory Ford D3 heads. Among the worse 429/460 head there is. A DOVE head or a CJ head would be much better. I think the Kaase P51s are about the best head you can get without going crazy. I dont recall exact cam specs but it was pretty small. Somewhere in the 220/230 range cut on 114. Made for a very driveable combination with tons of torque. Motor is all done at about 5,000 rpm. Would be a great 4x4, towing or boat motor.
Cool beans.
Way to go! You have courage and persistence. Congratulations.
Great to see a fellow V85TT going off road, I spend 40-50% of my time on dirt tracks with mine.
Was the floor already insulated?
No, the floor is not insulated. I mainly insulated it to keep the heat out in the summer so was not overly concerned about the floor.
Nice and simple..great build.
Thanks 👍
I am in love with the V85 TT and it is probably at the top of my list for my next motorcycle. The only thing holding me back was could it handle a BDR so I appreciate your video. I have some loooong miles to get to get to most of the BDR's (I live on the east coast) so I need something comfy for the roads but can manage at least easy to moderate trails. I currently have a 2018 Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports and at my skill level it is WAY to big, hell I don't even love it on the road because it's so tall and top heavy. I also have a CRF300L Rally which I love, but not to go halfway cross the country on in a timely fashion. The V85 TT may be one of the only adventure motorcycles I love for its looks as much as its ability and value point.
I have been very happy with the V85 so far. I rode it about 900 miles of highway in one day and was pretty comfortable. It seems to cruise about 70 (76ish on speedo) well. Off road it is certainly not a dirt bike but has been very manageable. A few times in more technical stuff I have found myself wishing for deeper gearing in first but have so far always made it through. I feel it provides phenomenal bang for your buck and I think its a pretty sweet looking bike! Definitely a conversation starter.
I sold my Africa Twin and bought a dedicated road bike. Then I bought a smaller bike for off-road, but not touring.
Hey bud I just installed my rough country e boards yesterday I watched your video the night you posted it really good video but as far as your light issues I think if you cross the light plugs at the control board there’s red and black as you already know but I was thinking if you plug the red into the black port coming out of the controller and vice versa on the other one maybe it will work. Thank you for your video and channel.
Great tour.Thanks
Hey guys. Great build. I have watched many. Love your simple design. I like how you kept the wires outside of the walls covered with just molding. So many people bury the wires. I dont understand that. Safe travels.
Thanks for the feedback! We have been happy with the trailer. I try to make everything I build as easy to maintain or fix in the future as possible!
Where can you buy one of these??? This is almost the perfect setup that I have been looking for.
Hi Shane, How was your experience with the Puig screen?
Hello! The Puig has been ok. It did not make the difference in air flow I was hoping for initially. However, once I paired it with some deflectors over the top of the fork tubes, I am pretty happy with the results. It does offer decent protection and I have not had any issues with it.
Hi, @ShanesWay12, it is great to hear that Puig and wind deflectors work for you. I installed a very similar setup and I hope that it will solve the only issue I have with V85TT. Thank you for the reply! K
v85 will take you on any roads whether it be paved or rocks. I got soft bags after my buddy dropped his bike hard and bent them badly. got my bike jan 21 and have 30k on it. We did a trip to AK in 2022 and had a blast. the v85 is great for the roads less traveled at speeds less than 80. BDR two up sounds challenging. Ride safe Ride free.
hi man!, i recommend using compression packing cubes for the clothes, they reduce a lot of volume !
I love watching people who can do awesome stuff like this!! Nice job
I'm not fully educated about crating dogs, but wouldn't the little elevated spot you have the crate on be fine with an adult dog for a cozy dog bed? What am I missing?
Don't worry the dog sleeps on the owners bed and is typically running around the farm where he lives. He has a much better life then most dogs. However in the event of an emergency or if other dogs are at the farm the kennel was incorporated for safety reasons.
What is the make and model of your 12V AC unit?
It was from overseas and I am unsure of brand/model. They are getting much more common within the last year. Similar models are available on Ebay. I only turned A/C on to ensure it functioned so can not comment on how well it worked in the field.
Pretty slick setup! I'd offer one correction. That's a Double Cab. Tundras of that generation come in Double Cab or a Crew Max configuration. The Crew Max is a larger cab and has a rear window that completely rolls down, but was only available with a 5'6" bed.
Awesome. Friend and I have done the nebdr and a couple VT trips on our v85tt's. Our bags looked the same after. Different tires were a game changer. This year I've gone soft bags after getting leg pinned under bike . I'll stay tuned for more vids.
Is there tire that has worked well for you? Looking at going to something more aggressive this time around. Thanks!
