Well done lads! I have wondered what Hell's Gate would be like on a bike. Super impressed with the riding and the bikes, you really commit, love it. What a great time to be ADV bike shopping.
Yes, I've watched it in past trip and just couldn't pull the trigger. This trip, I went in with a "You only live once" mindset and we got some great riding in.
Heck that is steep indeed the camera flattens everything but this makes me nervous 😬 just looking at it on the video. Well done great riding very entertaining video
I was just here and saw a bike attempt to go up- same basic results. He fell once but then made it to a round of applause! It's fun to WATCH! At my age, I value my joints too much to risk them for 5 minutes of thrills.
👍👍 Love the place! Stay left on bike, stay right in Jeep... Stay outta the big hot tubs on a bike. Video in no way represents how steep these obstacles are. Great video guys!
Can’t wait to see how you did on Cliff Hanger. We were in the red Gladiator but only made it to the creek. It will be nice to see the rest of that trail when you post it! Nice climb up Hell’s Gate guys!
It was great to meet you Brian. We made it, not without some drama along the way though! I'll get a video up once I have some time to edit. Why did you only make it to the creek?
@@CamelADV Hi Cory, needed a spotter to get over the ledge. I tried to take the ledge on the right but my wheel base is just a tad too long and didn’t want to get stuck in the V notch on the left, where you guys ran up, without a good winch spot to tie off on. After watching a recent video posted by the “Trails Offroad” guys, they had their JLU up and and back, we really would’ve needed some spotters at Cliff Hanger. Holy smokes that looks sketch! I’ll let you know how my T7, with the ported race head, dyno’s in a couple weeks. I’m waiting on a hi-flow velocity stack air cleaner from the race team in Brazil that goes with the head. Will be interesting to see what gains are made. Thanks for posting up the great videos!
Great vid. I’ve done it on my Raptor ATV and recently a rental kawi sxs while my wife and I were out there for our honeymoon. Seeing bikes go up it is cool. This perspective helps appreciate how formidable of a climb it is. My friend did it on his XR but I wasn’t there to see.
@@CamelADV I wish a had a good cam at the time. My low end GoPro took a crap right before the trip. Definitely be going back though. Keeping momentum whilst not bouncing yourself to oblivion looks like the key on a bike. I’ve never been a bike guy. Twist throttle always got me into trouble.
GoPro's absolutely flatten anything and everything. That shit looked STEEP. This is something I'd probably not even try if I were given the chance, just because of how badly your bike would be fucked if it started sliding back downhill.
@@CamelADV i would have had “cracked fairings” anxiety 🤣. Just made a walking speed tip over the other day at a sandy and rocky spot. Busted a rib or two, so no riding for a while 😒
Some of my worst injury crashes have been at very low speeds. I’ve given up on worrying about brittle T7 plastic, I’ll just replace it before I sell it.
@@CamelADV i thought i also saw rear crash bars from HEED on the blue one. is that correct? I also have same HEED setup. only totally untested. How do they hold up, any damage or bending? thanks upfront...
@@CamelADV I’m used to running 15 pounds of pressure coming from a tubed with rim lock setup on my 300. With these bigger bikes with higher torques, what’s the minimum pressure you run without a rim lock. Sorry no rim locks is a totally new concept to me so I appreciate the patience
@@bjwilliams6115 For our local technical single track (max - 3rd gear stuff) I run 8psi front and 6psi front on my 350XCF-W. In the same terrain on the T7 I run about 24psi front and 18 rear. For fast, rocky desert 2 track riding with on the T7, I'll run 30-35psi front and 27-30 rear. No rim locks required due to the safety beads in the rims. That been said, at lower pressure, the tires can rotate on the rims. My valve stems are often sitting at goofy angles after a hard ride at lower pressures.
I couldn't disagree more. The 890 has strong mid-range and top-end but they flame out far easier than the T7's do. However, the 890 may have done better with the traction control engaged as it may not have spun out on the sand kicked me to the left. It's moot point as it's 90% rider anyway.
Welcome to my home state! No way would I try that on my T7! 😯 Nice going! 👍
I love Utah. I haven't ridden nearly enough of it yet. Hoping to get a couple more trips in this year.
Savage! That low end torque really helped out there. I love that motor.
You guys are mental! Absolutely awesome run
Nice 😎🤘🏼 headed to Moab next week myself.
Have fun! I'd love to get back again this year.
Well done boys. Very savage!!! Big stones and talent. Love it!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Glad you enjoyed it. There are so many great choices for ADV bikes at the moment with a few more out shortly. We're spoiled for choice!
"Like new t7, never been dropped, been babied it's whole life"haha sweet riding!
You know it!
Thats a gnarly trail for an adv bike.. thanks for sharing this video man
It's a handful for sure!
Been there and watched, don't have the balls to do it. Great job and cool video!!
Yes, I've watched it in past trip and just couldn't pull the trigger. This trip, I went in with a "You only live once" mindset and we got some great riding in.
ADV savages! Always inspiring to watch.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
You guys are awesome! difference between riding a 500 and an Adventure bike is demonstrated here ...
Wow! nice riding Cory....
Thanks!
Heck that is steep indeed the camera flattens everything but this makes me nervous 😬 just looking at it on the video.
Well done great riding very entertaining video
Cory the sound of your bike grinding on the rocks is like finger nails on a black board lol
It definitely was ugly!
Good heavens derrrrr mergahtroid! That is awesome on a mid-size!
It's a great bike!
Good vid of how the tenere is getting some. Good stuff
Thanks 👍

My joints are a mess already ;)
@@CamelADV Sorry to hear that. They will ache more when you get older- sorry. At least you are having fun.
👍👍 Love the place! Stay left on bike, stay right in Jeep... Stay outta the big hot tubs on a bike. Video in no way represents how steep these obstacles are. Great video guys!
I looked at a couple of the Hot Tubs... one looked OK, one was nasty!

I used to ride ATVs... I think this climb would be far sketchier on an quad than a bike!

That was special. Nice one lads.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I am real impressed you can ride that Tenere places I can’t ride my XC250. Very impressed!
👏🏻🤟🏻
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I was intimidated on 300 enduro!! Well done Boys!!
It's intimidating for sure!
I think you need stiffer suspension so the bike can carry the balls on ya guys 😂 crazy!!!
LOL!
That is epic to do that on a big bike….mucho respect 👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Awesome job Boys!
Thanks!
Slightly used T7 for sale never laid over!
She's minty!
Fantastic..looks scary steep
It is intimidating for sure!
Absolute badass!
Epic! 🙌
well done very good🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I'm glad you enjoyed it ;)
If it looks steep on video, you know it must be super steep in person.
GoPro's absolutely flatten anything and everything. That shit looked STEEP. This is something I'd probably not even try if I were given the chance, just because of how badly your bike would be fucked if it started sliding back downhill.
It's a gnarly one for sure!
I sat up there just a couple weeks ago and there was no way I would have done it. Everything else on Hells Revenge was doable tho.
I looked at it the last few time we were there and just couldn't bring myself to try it. I decided this was the day ;)
@@CamelADV nicely done. Moab certainly doesn't disappoint in terms of steep sh*t lol.
3:05 handled like a boss, looked scary as hell.
Yup, Andy is a hell of a rider! He was crushing right up until the last 20ft!
Where was @thatcanadianrider ?
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Wicked hill forsure
Agreed.
Nailed it!
Hell Yeah Camel!
Hell yea Cory!!!
It was a fun section.
@@CamelADV i would have had “cracked fairings” anxiety 🤣.
Just made a walking speed tip over the other day at a sandy and rocky spot. Busted a rib or two, so no riding for a while 😒
Some of my worst injury crashes have been at very low speeds.
I’ve given up on worrying about brittle T7 plastic, I’ll just replace it before I sell it.
Good times!!
Impressive I rode that on my pit bike and it was pretty gnarly
On your pit bike... that's awesome, I hope there is video!
@@CamelADV unfortunately not, I definitely have to go back to Moab sometime though, so many awesome trails
The wicked sound of those bikes alone make me want one. Are you both running Camel exhaust?
What was that blue electronic thing on your shoulder with the antenna? Some kind of communicator?
A two radio.
Yeahhh I would be nervous in my jeep. Absolutely not on my t7 😂
I've seen a few jeep roll on it over the years. There's always entertaining things going at that obstacle!
@@CamelADV 😱
Hell yeah!!
Thanks!
What do you reckon the odds are of a DCT Africa Twin making a run up this?
I haven't seen it done but I'm sure it's possible with the right rider.
The guy from the least inclination in one go.
Great content as always. What are you running for crash bars? Are you running any racks other than the rear rack?
I had the HEED Bunker bars on my T7 and Andy had the SW Motech I believe. No pannier racks for either of us.
@@CamelADV i thought i also saw rear crash bars from HEED on the blue one. is that correct? I also have same HEED setup. only totally untested. How do they hold up, any damage or bending? thanks upfront...
Curious about your radio set up? Is it just the handset or you got something going on in the helmet? Great video btw!
It belonged to one of the other guys. I believe they are Rugged Radios. Just stand alone handsets, no helmet interface.
@@CamelADV good to go. Down in Phoenix and just looking for something to keep the kids in family all in contact
Do you all run bead locks on your teneres? If so are you still running stock rims?
I've got stock rims, no rim lock. Andy's T7 has narrower aftermarket rims, mousses and rim locks.
@@CamelADV I’m used to running 15 pounds of pressure coming from a tubed with rim lock setup on my 300. With these bigger bikes with higher torques, what’s the minimum pressure you run without a rim lock. Sorry no rim locks is a totally new concept to me so I appreciate the patience

@@CamelADV this is super helpful! Thank you for taking the time to share your experience
Does this mean you are going to be at the revzilla event in California this next weekend? That would be awesome!
I’m home now, this was from Mid March. I’d like to check out the Revzilla event soon though.
Cory do you have still have to crush your T7?
This is T7 #2, the first has been gone for 18months.
I like your opening lines. This is Hell's gate. Hell's gate is fekin stupid :D
It is pretty stupid.
Awesome! Love taking big bikes where they don't belong! @7:50 call me a hater, but I think the 890 would have lugged you up that at the end.
I couldn't disagree more. The 890 has strong mid-range and top-end but they flame out far easier than the T7's do. However, the 890 may have done better with the traction control engaged as it may not have spun out on the sand kicked me to the left. It's moot point as it's 90% rider anyway.
You probably would make it up on a klr as it tractors better than a t7 lol
@@oosteveo315 Maybe.
Hell no! I am not worthy😟
Lol!
What tires are you running on the T7?
We were both using Shinko 216Mx front and rear.
@@CamelADV Did you change to a narrower rear rim or are you still running the OEM rim? Also, are you running stock gearing on your T7?
@@alvk3996 Stock gearing and stock rims on mine. Andy has a 1.6" wide front and 2.5" rear rims with mousses. He's 14T front sprocket.
You guys are animals
You could've named this, how to make your T7's value drop 50% in five minutes...
I bought it to ride and enjoy on my terms... and I do.
@@CamelADV Right on, and so you should!
I wouldn't try that on a 250!
It's a bit unnerving!
İyi çıktın dayı ,motor ağır
You swore 4-5 times in the first 30 seconds. I’m out.
Hell Yeah Camel!
