Great to see some fellow Mexican's enjoying a blast in the Valley with you Joshie. After riding Barry's 701 recently, I was blown away how good these bikes are. ON the Unicorn scale they get a 9/10 from me, if they were Japanese 10/10 LOL. Well done Cal & Matt, great time of the year to be up in QLD. Regards FPPete.
While the southern states freeze their proverbials off, every one heads north. Well done to the boys for escaping the cold especially on those big red single cylinders. Good riding great tracks and a stop for refreshments. Awesome video Josh. Cheers 🍻
Cheers Nate 🤙 there was to be 3 of us heading up to Gladstone on the T7’s but work commitments made it that that trip had to be cancelled, Matt n I then quickly decided to just throw the Red Pony’s on his ute and just go……. We drove 2 days to get to Gympie, rode with the little legend and then turned around and headed home. Yes it’s a big commitment to do that and I can absolutely declare that any Victorian who’s clearly not in peak fitness shape SHOULD NEVER go straight up and straight into the Mary Valley and ride that stuff, that air isn’t the same so it is advisable to take a couple of days to acclimatise, that’s not an excuse but a fact 🥵 Wait till Josh comes to Victoria and I’ll do my best to make him hurt 😉😂😂😂
@@CalumT700 🤣🤣🤣 yeh definitely different in air/ riding conditions.. I can vouch for that, Victoria in the high country this time of year will hurt any sunny coaster 🤣🤣, she bloody cold in vic today
You did say... get outa the rutt Josh 😅 great content as usual Bro, good on ya fellas, great riding, thanks for taking us along Josh, definitely entertaining 😊👍
Well that was fun, spills, single track and GAS GAS Bikes and the Victorians come up for a visit. (not hard Josh!) I quite enjoyed the video. Well done. It was nice to give Mark, Bikerbits a shout out! David.....Adelaide/Kilburn.....Triumph Scrambler 1200X .....
I know of a person who broke their AXP Bashplate and all they did was make the distributor aware and they were sent a replacement free of charge. It’s rare they break because obviously they’re designed and intended to take some harsh knocks but the manufacturers are aware that the welds can occasionally fail. I’ve had mine on my 701 over two years now without any issues. Ask your mate to give the shop a call. 👍
Hi Josh. Great video Could You use this kind of riding to explain ABS settings on a bike. I.e, the new (and old with the LSK dongle) T7 has 3 ABS modes. Which mode would be suitable in what setting? Id like to tap into your experience to learn more about the topic for an offroad/touring setup I'm preparing for. Cheers from Kenya
That's easy mate when I'm on the dirt (any dirt) ABS can go get f*cked completely, I don't want it on the front or rear. Don't really mind not having it on the road either but that's the only place I'll leave it on if it's on already. Cheers
I simply walked into a dealership in Hamilton Vic just before Christmas and spoke with the fella there for less than 5 minutes, told him to crunch some numbers and give me a price I can’t say no to on the 2023 model and walked out, Morg’s sent me an email 1/2 hour later with the quote for $14,149 on road, Matt was looking at a KTM but at that price it was too good to pass so he ordered one as well. I are hearing rumours that GASGAS are selling them for even less now????
11:06 and 13:01, man I know that feeling 😄😄 Another great video Josh, long way for Cal and Matt to come for a ride but good on them, cheers Maddog 🐕🦺🐕🦺🍻🍻

Cal & Matt looking sweaty in that Qld weather, now it’s time to travel south Josh.
Dunno about right now per se, bit cold for this banana bender down there in winter 😉
Glad to see the golden orbs have gone Joshua-san!
Too right mate they've been frozen out of existence until next summer yeww 😏
Awesome seeing y'all jumping and hooning together, they look super fun bikes, makes me wish I was taller!
Barrels of fun Pete, get some leg extensions and get on it 🤩

I've had a similar experience with AXP the guy there is really quite good to deal with. Cheers 🤘
Awesome guys
🙏🙌
Man, the tractability of those bikes is awesome, just about can't stall them. Impressed, but am pushing 75 so may be a plan too big.
They are a ton of fun mate and go anywhere 🍻 cheers
Hiya mate. What gearing are you using on your 690.
Brilliant content always.
Just dropped one tooth on the front to a 14 mate seems a pretty good compromise for this shitty close ratio gearbox, cheers 🍻
Cool vid as always, can you tell me which GoldenTyre model would you use on T7?
Not a lot of options for the big 4" rim on the T bird but GT723 is the go to 👌

Nice ride. Did they say they got their GasGas 700s, brand new for $14,100? That's a bargain. Cheers
Yeah the Gas Gas bikes are way cheaper whilst being basically the same bike as the KTM & Husky.
Yeah exactly mate I paid not much less than that for my 2nd hand Kato 😬

Incorrect but humorous nonetheless 😁
@@MVDBR nah look at the husqvarna emblem mate it Evan has th crown on it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👊👋🤠👍
Josh do you turn off your abs on single tracks?
A while back I put a spacer in the rear wheel sensor that has disabled the ABS completely 👌
1:38 hey Josh have you not got mode 1 and 2 on your ktm
Nah mate none of that crap 💪
@@MVDBR why not thought they was basically the same 👋🤠👍
