F*ck yes man!
So beautiful, I really enjoy riding up there. Thank you for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Looks like an Awesome trip! I need to get back on the saddle soon.
Was a blast, already scouting out the area for another trip next season
Love your vids man
Appreciate it
Nice one, interesting area, likes the falls. From a fellow DR owner ;)
Thanks for watching!
Hell yeah bud! We did almost the same ride up to Whales back in Sept and a near identical ride from Diamond lake to Union Creek resort on the old highway in Oct.
We’re riding all the same trail.
We’ll catch you out there some day😀
Lemolo to Sparks lake via Waldo lake next season.
Not sure which route you're taking from Lemolo but if you can throw in NF 398 you won't regret it. 4x4 trail that goes from Summit Lake to Crescent lake and is part of the original ORBDR. Rode it last year with a couple buddies and it's a blast. Have fun out there
We took Windigo pass rd early July over to Cresent lake, down to the store for fuel and snacks, then back to Summit via the Jeep rd.
Camped overnight, then back past Timpanogas lake to Lemolo.
We enjoy watching your footage because we recognize so many trails and landmarks.
Keep up the good work😀
How do you like those mirrors? I’ve got the generic round ones but as you know the DR can be a bit buzzy and mine are borderline useless once you get moving
I really like them. They get a little buzzy at higher speeds due to the nature of thumpers but still very usable and I'm a big fan of their adjustability. On group rides I'll have one set for the sitting position and the other for standing. Little spendy but worth it imo
What tires are those? Do you like them on and off road?
Shinko 244 goldenboys. Great tires on and off road, I can cruise on the freeway no problem and handle moderate off road terrain. Slick mud is about their limit though
@@mtnmotoadv nice, when's the next video?
Got a dr650 and thinking of dropping to a dr350… just curious what is the top speed? Do you have any power mods?
On a loong straight stretch, with a slight downhill bias and tail wind.. maybe 80ish mph. With a 15/39t you can cruise 60-65mph with decent comfort but wouldn't want to do it for more than a couple hours.
No power mods but once I rebuild the top end I'm going to throw a 385 big bore at it. If you like doing long stretches of pavement I'd stick to the 650, but if you prefer trails or long trips on dirt and gravel I'd go with the 350.
@@mtnmotoadv yeah, stock form does not sound good for the highway. Spoke with built motors (formerly thumper racing) and they still do the 440 big bore kit at stock compression ratio. Was thinking this might be the way to get it going with an adv setup, along with optional factory oil cooler.
@Weltbummler23 go onto ADVForums in the DR350 thread, the people on there are DR350 gurus and can tell you everything you need to know. 440 kits have their pros and cons, you do get more power but you also lose some revving ability. The 350 has enough power to cruise 70mph it's just more of a gearing thing, you can swap out sprockets obviously but you can also get different clutch baskets that have different gearing ratios too to make gearing taller. But then you're going to lose the lower end torque and will be slipping the clutch a lot if you do a lot of trails. There's compromises but the 6th gear definitely helps with things
