A foot note; Having the Two bikes, if you can, its the best. The T7 is perfect for long haul trips and camping The KTM690 is perfect for the fun Day Rides that you do a lot of, each bike has their merits and purpose...
I’ve ridden Paddy’s Flat about 4 or 5 times. The first few times it was so much fun and grippy. Since they’ve graded it it’s very sketchy in places and not as much fun. The swimming is amazing on a hot day.
Yeah I've seen footage of it looking a lot better than that. But yeah the swimming would have been a lot better if the water wasn't like 30 degrees 😬 cheers
Last time i went through paddys flat road was around april 2023. They were doing road works so big sections were compacted clay. Was fine when dry, but after rain it was like ice. And I’ve still got a layer of the mud from it on my bike.
Paddy’s Flat Road & the valley is a great little spot. Did you know there’s a little cemetery where you were camping? 🤞😂⚰️ It’s always an adventure…carry on! 😁👍🏍🏍🏍💨
Hi Roz! Thanks for the comment, no I didn't know about a cemetery... hope it's not an Indian burial ground I have enough bad luck already haha. Cheers 🍻
Hey Josh! Thanks for sharing the ride, fantastic scenery, the variation of roads was tops, the camp site was great, to have a nice creek to have a dip is the best. Last weekend I had done the Flinders Ranges and managed a couple of tracks, its been pissing down here in SA for the last 4 days... OK safe travels and looking forward to the next one! David.....Adelaide/Kilburn.....Street Scrambler 900.......
What an awesome camping spot. Them CRF300 Rally bikes had me quite tempted prior to getting my Aprilia, would have been able to sell the Beta then too!
I haven't actually ridden a 300 yet mate (I'll have to have a go soon) but I reckon the power would be a bit underwhelming. Other than that a great all rounder 💪
@@MVDBR aye... but had I gotten it prior to my Aprilia, it'd feel more like my old Beta for power, so although less than my current Beta, it wouldn't be as noticiable compared to now vs the Tuareg 660
Fantastic views mate 👍, I brought a Rally , my my on his 701 Husky , KTM 890. ,1090 DRZ 400 couldn’t keep with me in the bush tracks ( except my m my mate on the 701 ) he was blown away “ power is definitely not everything. It does help out of the corners but . Rode in that slippery crap 2 days ago down a mountain with lots of sharp corners “ was pretty hairy 😂😂😂.
Gday mate. I bought a Tenere a few weeks back and the first job was to sort the back brakes. I live in Orange NSW and a bloke by the name of Johnny Prior runs a moto shop here in town called Orange Motorcycle Service Centre. He’s a very decorated dirt bike rider from his time. He hooked me up with organic material rear brake pads made by Newfren part number FD0206BD and we adjust the rear master cylinder piston so there was just the slightest contact of pads on the rear disc. Perfection and no more 3 inch’s of brake pedal plunging to the ground. That simple, I’m talking 450cc dirt bike rear brake feel. Look into lads 👌🏾 save money on that Camel foot pedal rubbish.
@@JustTex Perfect size and I didn't need the duffle bag on top. Kept the weight nice and low. Seems like good quality, see how long the straps and stitching last.
Don't know mate we're running out of time hey and I'm busy as a one legged man at an arse kicking contest at the moment 🤔 Imagine if I had a real job to juggle as well 🙈

Haha, if you want shit brakes ride a drz400e unloaded they are shit, fully loaded its freight train stopping distance, scary AF b4 you get out of the metro area when heading out for a few days
Amazing scenery and riding Josh, except for the bull dust 🤔Looks like a great trip, be interesting to see how the 300 Rally goes, of course Black Betty was the choice for this trip, cheers mate 👍👍🍻🍻🥃🥃

I know sequels are rarely better than the originals in the movies but I think part 2 of this shenanigans will be the highlight, cheers ears 🍻
How goods paddy’s flat camping great flowing river sand to camp on🙌
It's a very nice spot and lots of room to spread out too. Pity the water was so warm that day!
And thanks for the review on the Olight…ordered one so I can clearly see the Yowie at Paddy’s Flat next time! 😂👍
Hahaha yeah you have to keep an eye on those Yowie movements 😬
Groovy Moovie as usual Josh, 😎 looking forward to part 2 😊👍

That was fun Josh, always good to have a crew.

Road to Woodenbong - be Killarney ?
Mt Lindsay Rd
@@MVDBR I mean from Warwick..
Oh, looking at the map it looks like we took Nobles Rd, Long Swamp Rd, & KIllarney Barlow's Gate Rd. Didn't actually go to Killarney
@@MVDBR ok, sweet. Only been to Killarney once to service the alarms at the school and cop shop.
Josh 13:47 did you see my comment last time about the person Moto rear subframe strengthening kit ,if you put bags on 690 you'll need the kit .
Phil's fitted the Perun Moto bolt kit and also the Oberon clutch slave, thanks mate 🤙
George loving his $600 chair 😂

Nice area down that way. What was Barlows Gate track like ?
Sure is mate, and I'm not sure but I don't think we did that one 🤔
