Great video. Those rocky roads are complex but once you get to learn how to deal with them, it's actually natural, but though anyway. Greetings from The Andes in Southamerica. Thanks for sharing.
If you don't know how it works, I can understand it can take some time. The most important is to get a stamp for your passport and the papers for your bike. The best thing is to let some people fill in the papers for you, like you can see in the video, and give them some money. They know what to do, and who to speak to. ;-)
Nice adventure and vid. I saw that you change the rear suspension [shock], try to do something with that useless front fork, and you'll and up with a 10x better bike.
Looks like a great adventure. How far and how many days did you spend there? Do you have any tips on maps, and where to find gps tracks for a trips like this?
Great Ride mate! I'm planning to buy F800 GS Adventure soon. I saw a few riders in the video on 1200 GS as well. What's your feedback on 1200 GS vs 800 GSA on such terrain? As I live in Australia and have plenty of similar roads in the outback so will be good to hear your opinion.
Rohit Sharma Go for the F800GSA, you will have a lot more fun offroad ;-). The F800 is the perfect bike for this. The 1200 is a very good bike but it's just to heavy for offroad, it only has more comfort on the highway.
Rohit Sharma What did you like about the KTM 1190 overall? Any comparison to the BMW 800 gs? I am considering a KTM as well, and have only rode the 1200 & 800 BMW's so far. Safe travels Rohit! Cheers.
Wow, that's the best sounding akra on the F8. I've been mulling one of those, but damn, those are expensive. Saw your farkles video, sweet looking bike!
I agree Xerra, and leave any BM-boxer at home for this stuff, the 800 is superior to that clumsy heavy buffalo.... you can't lift it yourself? Then leave it at home!
Iz Meorbin i agree. i dont understand why you would ride an adventure bike that you cant pick up on your own. But it is good to see the bikes actually used in the dirt. Not like all those reviews that use sealed roads with the occasional ride in a gravel parking lot!
I see you pointed out your ABS kept kicking in. Did your GS not come with the option for turning that off? I know the new F800GS Adventure has that option, thats all. Maybe its a new thing.
I forgot to turn the ABS off after starting the bike. When you stop the bike and start the bike again, you will need to turn it off again. It's annoying because when travelling in a group, I shut down the bike when waiting for the others. And when I start the bike again, I forget to turn off the ABS sometimes.
Obviously they can, as they went to Morocco and back in a fantastic trip with their bikes and their mates. It must suck being such a good rider that nothing is challenging for you.

Dank u voor de mooie beelden
Looks like a lot of fun man. Good ride!
Very nice video! It`s a enjoyment to see this.
You dusted those brave desert pedestrians @ 1:54. Hahaha. Awesome journey!
Very nice vid. Some difficult stone passages would be great for Quad... :D thx, for that vid.
A fully loaded Gs through the Moroccan desert makes me giggle
The exhaust has a pleasing note to it.
Amazing video, my dream to do this.
Looks amazing. Getting through customs didn't look as bad as some of the stories I've heard.

Cool guys, i have done a trip sub Sahara myself....
Great!!!
Greate trip

Nice trip! In the bucket list
hi, great ride. can you please detail the exact path taken. i wish do the same

Looks like an awesome experience! What did the ABS do at 8:50?
Ótima moto, dispensa comentários .
Hi. I'm planning to ride to Morocco this summer. can you tell me the name of the place where you shoot the rocky road?
You’d rather break something on your bike which will strand you and your mates, rather than walk it to safety. Makes perfect sense.
Even in the Dakar, riders will walk/run their bikes.
hi! Great ride. I'm lanning to do onde to morocco aswell. How difficult it was? Where did you take the boat?
They took the boat frok Ceth (france) To Nador Morocco

Thanks, Kenny Hendrickx I test rode quite a few bikes and finally bought the KTM Adventure 1190. It's an amazing machine.

Nice adventure!!!
What you wear gps and supporting this fixed? thx !! and gasssss
The gps is a Garmin Zumo 660 with Morocco mapping. The bracket is from Touratech.
What exhaust are you running on the F800GS? The one you have sounds really nice and throaty, and doesn't feel too loud in the videos. I like it!
it's the akrapovic one
Wow, that's the best sounding akra on the F8. I've been mulling one of those, but damn, those are expensive. Saw your farkles video, sweet looking bike!
Thanks. Love the bike, took me 4 years to build it the way I wanted. :-)
It looks very tricky
2:48 This is what i hate,a heavy motorcycle fall.
No se deben atravesar las zonas pobladas a esa velocidad , es un peligro

there's always someone on a ktm
Nice try. I see the rocks and think of one word…Scotts.

Kenny Hendrickx Use the kill switch rather than the key and it should stay turned off :)
Michael Laubscher great tip
Waving your left hand at the locals isn’t the best idea.....
Nice trip, but most of these guys should have taken some motorcycling courses first. They can't ride.
Obviously they can, as they went to Morocco and back in a fantastic trip with their bikes and their mates. It must suck being such a good rider that nothing is challenging for you.
You boys need to load some more shit on them bikes. Honestly what have you got in them? Hairdryers, anvils ???
you can find a complete list of my gear over here lucifer4x4.com/?page_id=1248
Kenny Hendrickx Wow you got the packing down. Nice job. Did you know how much the gear is weighing.
You must be kidding? I mean, the adventure looks fantastic but your team is lacking basic riding skills
One of then is a paris dakkar driver . did you drive Paris dakkar ?
Clowns at play 🙄
There is no story line no words and no respect so not sure what you are doing no sense ok
