That looked like a complete nightmare at the start but you always keep your cool and make it look easy. Cracked me up with your “yeah and twice on a Tuesday” comment 😂 such a kiwi thing to say. Also crack up when you limmy bash roosted those fellas in that little paddock. 😂 i love watching you videos and listening to your commentary as it cracks me up all the time.
This is hilarious. I used to lease that property at the end of the stage, to run a bed and breakfast. Awesome riding by the way. There is no way I would take my 890 through all that.
Better than netflix Amazing; nasty trails on an 890. You are the boss. I'm waiting for my 890 R, maybe next Monday. What tires do you use and air pressure for that type of terrain? 2nd part please
Great video. Thank you for not just posting a success story, but some of the issues you face and that you stall just like us newbees. I bought the 890 as my first motorcycle last year and was a little discouraged with my first few times into the wild. You build my courage!
Helge remembering he did this with a machete, a couple of months, twice the weight and one quarter the horsepower 😅 well done guys, looks exhausting, thanks for sharing
I never understood why people get to the top of a hard line and then stop like there is nobody coming up behind them. Show some courtesy, move past the spot and get tf out the way. 😂
Absolutely rips my nightie, too. Time and again I work out a line up root mud bastard hill and some ambulance chaser is parked right in my high velocity and spectacular exit.
That looked SLICK! Could you explain to me why you go full throttle with the wheel spinning like crazy? I thought this would only give less traction and drive?
I take it you don't use the slip settings? I've been enjoying my Norden and it's slip settings but I've never been in anything that gnarly. That looks like it takes the fun right out of it.
Mr. Birch, I am sorry for my ignorance but I was wondering which of your say no to slow courses you would recommend. I am 43 and while I have ridden motorcycles for quite some time I would classify my skill level as not very good. While I don’t reck a lot I cannot even wheelie. I currently have and xr650r and some smaller low displacement bikes but I am thinking of changing out the Xr for a 690 or 701. My goal is lighter adventure rinding. I did not know if you would recommend the dirt bike course or the adventure bike course. Thank you for your time Sir. V/R Jonny
Thanks.
I’ve always wondered what a 890 would sound like doing 24000 RPM.
🤣
🤣😂🤣😂😅😅🤣😂🤣😂😅😁
hahha
“put er’ in the ketchup!”
Chris just put about 2500 miles of wear on that DR in the space of 25 meters 😂
I was thinking the samethine! He was bouncing off that rev limiter like kids running into balls in a ball pit.
Your attitude and who you are is the reason I watch . Thank you
Thank you!
"yep, twice on Tuesdays" broke me
You're awesome and we appreciate your videos. I gain confidence each video you post. 🤙🏼
Thanks man!
5:10 I had to tell my DR650 to look away for this bit! 😳🤣 Crazy slippery hills, well done Chris 💪😎
That poor DR didn't know Chris was coming up the hill
Ride it like you stole it Birch!
He reved the shit out of this poor single cylinder
XD
This was so intense, I nearly cracked my tablet in two pieces as if it was the handle bar! Great ride Chris!
Got to love it! That looked like some hard going there, looks like you had a good time with it!
Yeah it was a lot of fun. Definitely a work out.
Just Insane !! and on a 890 doing hard core rpm .... respect Chris !
Wow Chris! I knew you were a badass but that video was fun! Shelby and I enjoyed getting to hangout and ride with you in Panama

Nothing but respect mate - incredible.
That was epic, great bike and even better rider
👓great to watch
Thanks!
Awesome! Cant wait for the next videos. Dunno how you do it, insane skills.
Always showing what the bikes capable of in the right hands! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏽🏍💨
This is hilarious. I used to lease that property at the end of the stage, to run a bed and breakfast. Awesome riding by the way. There is no way I would take my 890 through all that.
It's a nice place!
Another incredible show of skill on an adv bike…deep mud is such a pain in the ass
Epic day sums it up Chris, glad the DR and the 890 are not mine on the limiter😂. Great watching!
Better than netflix
Amazing; nasty trails on an 890.
You are the boss.
I'm waiting for my 890 R, maybe next Monday.
What tires do you use and air pressure for that type of terrain?
2nd part please
I feel like taking a shower after seeing this!
The footage and editing are as impressive as your bike skills.
That’s just awful conditions, I’m so glad I’m not there 😂🏍🇨🇦
Continuous watching making me to jump in to the ride and my mind saying.....go. Go...😆🤣😄.excellent energy ,brilliant riding skills. Best wishes.👌
🤣🤣 twice on Tuesdays hahahaha that was a Kiwi answer hahaha loved it
🤣🤣🤣 “yeah, twice on Tuesdays”… so funny
My favorite video yet. Thanks.

Absolutely best choice for a first bike!
Bravo...COMPLENTTI sei un pilota incrdibile mi piacci tantissimo.❤
damn, difficulty level through the roof, wel done !

Oh man that's such a dick move,it's so logical to get off the line 🙄
That used to strip my sprockets with frustration
Natural selection I guess.
Not all understand that though
Good stuff making sure the lads get their tip!
Gotta respect the locals!
@@ChrisBirchNZ Aye the Colombians are great folks too-We'll get you over here sooner or later
You are a king 👑 off-road..no problem 😊🤗
Crazy adventure! Cheers from Brazil
10:30 you are puffing like me when I use my helmet GoPro 😁
That mud just makes the day a slog…
Good video though 👍🏻
Very impressive but I can't say it looks like much fun! I live in Costa Rica so I know all about that kinda mud... it is super extra slippery!
That's amazing bro! we are scheduling in Colombia some trips, just let me know! Regards!
Hey excelent even. Hard to be done on Adventure motorcycle simple you are an allien. So good to lean from your off road clinic here in Panama
What a mess man! Good times.
Brilliant 😊 have ever done a old verse new, like 690 v 625 or 990 adventure v 890.
Now THAT'S a lot of mud! Truly an endurance track, "get to the finish or die trying" 😂
I wonder what kind of tyres those were on the 890
Well done Chris, was having heart palpitations just watching you on my computer let alone being there. :)
What an awesome job you have.
Great vid, ace 💪🏁
Thank you for the route uncle #chrisbirch...greetings to trail lovers 🇮🇩
Love seeing big bikes being punted through crap terrain. Makes me want to practise and give it a go. 💪👍
Get in to it!
Looks like you were going from the Caribbean side to the Panama city side (north to South) and looks a lot like that NZ clay
Absolutely Bonkers!!
Well, There Chris goes again! Riding an 890 where I couldn't ride a 350. Way to go Birchy!
Holy shit, man! That was EPIC!
Living the dream! 🧡
Was giving a thought in trading my ATAS for a smaller bike... found to first gain some "nail kits" to harvest that best! Impressive !
Nice riding 👍 Great video too! 😁
While down there should try crossing darien gap.
MUUUUY buen capitulo . 👏👏👏
🐴 7:07 min
Chris is a Very skillful rider .. top
Awesome!.. By the way I like how you have kept that banana there for quick bite with zip-ties :) ..
Love it...., So You can try in Indonesia for the next... 👍👍
Nice job Chris.
that's pretty intense, I could hear your rear tire howling for mercy at certain times during the video.
As always Chris to the rescue 😂😂
Just another day in Nevesville or Riverhead A 👍👍
"Send in the probe, and your it " love it.😆
That looked SLICK! Could you explain to me why you go full throttle with the wheel spinning like crazy? I thought this would only give less traction and drive?
Great effort doing that on the 890 ADV R. I'm sure you were expending a lot more energy than the guys on the 300s. 9 hours is a long time in that mud.
It was a big day that's for sure. I love the challenge of the bigger bikes, most of the time ha ha
"twice on Tuesdays" hilarious!!!
Wow impressive ! We wanna see that rear tire 😉 thanks a lot for your videos!
Jesus christ, that was Insane, but really cool. 👍👍
I take it you don't use the slip settings? I've been enjoying my Norden and it's slip settings but I've never been in anything that gnarly. That looks like it takes the fun right out of it.
Bleeping brilliant
Awesome - Thanks!
Good one Chris you are the tough guy showing Spanish how compete, bit different to south Island, bet its real HOT too
“It seems like the sort of time you’re supposed to do a wheelie.” Yeah buddy! 😂🎉
"YEP, twice on Tuesdays" lol!
Mr. Birch, I am sorry for my ignorance but I was wondering which of your say no to slow courses you would recommend. I am 43 and while I have ridden motorcycles for quite some time I would classify my skill level as not very good. While I don’t reck a lot I cannot even wheelie.

Epic video, I would love to do this trip 👍⛰️
Fantastic video Chris, like always thanks👏🏻👏🏻but I think maybe you really enjoy that terrain a little bit more on a 150 😂😂
I couldn't believe what that 890 would plow through!
Awesome can't wait for part 2
Does Panama have any trails that are not garbage ?
Oh man. I feel this ❤😄
Epic 👌🏼👌🏼💪🏼👌🏼👌🏼
My girl friend has ridden and mapped all of the south western Nicaragua on a 150 Serpento, and is now riding and mapping Guatemala..
is that a banana strapped behind your headlight?! 🤣🤣🤣
On that first big hill, were you in 2nd gear on purpose to limit wheel spin?
Epic!!
How come you're in Panamaaa! Come over to Colombia man
Legend!
Woowww cool, this condition as same as my island, west kalimantan, indonesia, condition soft land, clay, peat, jungle tracking,
You can't get enough of the DR650 now ay
What did you do to your bike? My 890 won’t wheelie.
Gooey! BTW, how is that little bag between the clocks and screen mounted? Just velcro?
have you always a little bit of front break in the mud or just your finger on the lever..???
Just the finger on the lever
Love from Nepal♥️♥️🇳🇵
what kind of rubber model mitas?
More like a pack of angry chainsaws than motorbikes. Lots of clutch and fork seal carnage!
Will we ever see Part 2 ??
We are all at the town of "where ever we are" I suppose.
Glad I’m not the only one that vocally admonishes themselves whilst riding…😂
Do you ever feel like the weight and momentum of a big bike helps you in some ways?
Hard core!
Awesome Chris!....very well done!, probably you are in the biggest bike riding there...am I right?
There were some guys on big bikes taking a slightly easier route, full respect to them!
Just 🤯🤠
