- just a quick update on the Iceland trip, with the Triumph 400X with the Rally Raid wheels and suspension being used to guide a group of 14 Brits on a 12 day tour of Iceland

That 400-X does look good with the spoked wheels.
Excellent! As a 62 year old I can appreciate the weary bones comment! Get people to stretch gently every morning and evening Nathan, it helps!
Iceland does look an amazing place to ride. At last someone is showing it can be done cost effectively, on small bikes and by people who aren't riding Gods.
Well done organising the trip.
Gotta love the way he just fires off and doesn't edit out his return to the camera 🤣
It actually adds a touch of authenticity to the video imo!
Awesome! Lovely experience, we'll be following the content. You've convinced me on getting a Voge 300 rally in the next months. Regards from Argentina!
Been looking forward to seeing how the Triumph fairs... Keep us posted 👍
Thx for the update mate, keep em coming. I'm sure you are helping a lot of us decide whether we want the 400x or not, me included. Is thx again
Exactly! Also in dubio about this one, the ktm 390 - cfmoto 450, so much choice and test rides to do.
My favorite thing in Iceland was the lagoon in the south east . Where the ice falls off the glacier into the water. Stunning country.
Cheers for the update Nathan - "tight ship" as ever!
Ted Simon (Jupiters Travels) would love this bike for a round the world trip.
Wow you've definitely got the weather on your side, looking forward to see how the bikes do and your thoughts on them all.
Brilliant video mate everyones bikes are looking great thanks for taking the time to update I think the smaller bikes are a great idea tbh, im looking to get dad a cb500x this week limited budget once the T7 is sold (only road riding n touring now with dads prostate cancer) hopefully there’s a few more lighter bikes out next year
Look forward to the next update :)
Have a great time and enjoy every minute .
Looks fab 👌
Next year likely getting the 400x. I had a CRF250L, then an Africa Twin…sold both. Not doing that type of riding any longer and the 400x seems perfect. If I want more, like you I’ll upgrade to the rally raid…
This is my dream trip.
Have a great time 🏍️👍
Bike really looks the part, yet had it been stock still, would it been a contender..!
Stay safe n have enjoyable Trip Ya'll
Good stuff Nathan👍
It looks like you bumped the forks up to the top for and extra bit of travel, yes? How is it? I was thinking the same as I am 6'1" and want a little more height out of it. I also straightened the bar angle a bit...
I visited Iceland in 2018 for 10 days and it was just stunning!
A nice, gentle, pace for us older riders but I bet the off road sections were fun! I’d really like to join one of these tours at some point Nathan, maybe after I get my new adventure bike. Do you stay in B&Bs overnight? - I’d only want to do tents if really needed now!😂
i wonder if anyone will do some kind of larger tank for this bike
Nice
Also me too at 63 agree 👍 about the weary bones. Nathan I have the new NX500 do you think that machine would be suited to doing this kind of thing?
Hi skydar. Yes I think the nx500 would be absolutely fine for what we're going to do. It would be a bit heavy for some of the f roads so might limit you slightly, but you'd still manage a good adventure on it
Nice one. It’ll be interesting to see what the CFMOTO 450 MT is like as that’s very slight lighter and more off road biased. I know you’re running the 400x but did you also let somebody ride the 450 MT or did you leave that in North Devon in the end?
Iceland is like the UK - cheaper and quieter ‘oop North 😂
