    Loved the video I have the same bike in the UK I have been to France and Spain but never to Morocco .how did your chain and sprockets cope with all that sand .

    • @SaharaMotoAdventure
      @SaharaMotoAdventure  Рік тому +1

      Thanks John, if you get a chance to go to Morocco, do it, I bet you will like it. Great adventure.
      It's fair to say, the abuse on the chain was very high on this trip. Before I started the trip I installed a new set of sprockets and chain.
      The chain is now shot, the rubber seals are slowly but surely falling of. So new chain for the next season is needed.
      But it was worth every penny 😎

    Did you have any satellite phone or similar in case of an emergency or bike brake-down in the dessert?

    • @SaharaMotoAdventure
      @SaharaMotoAdventure  Рік тому +1

      thanks Martin.
      I was amazed by the good cell phone coverage, even in the desert I had cell phone coverage every know and then.
      But I also rented a Garmin InReach satellite commutation device to be able to communicate anywhere. I'm glad I didn't need it. road side assistance and medical helicopters are far away in the desert, so better not get hurt.

I didn't have a problem to find accomodation. however after the lockdown and reopening of the ferry transport, I was one of the first tourists, so it was very quiet everywhere. it may have become more busy now, not sure

    Really cool trip. I am thinking about taking a similar tour with the same bike, a 2005 F650GS. I don't have off-road experience. Do you think is it necessary to have a certain degree of off-road experience? Thanks

    • @SaharaMotoAdventure
      @SaharaMotoAdventure  Рік тому +2

      Hey thanks for your feedback. Morocco is suitable for all kinds of bikes and skill levels. On the ferry we saw Goldwings and regular street/touring bikes too. Morocco has good asphalt roads.
      But also good off-road tracks if you are into that.
      I think you will be fine to start slow and easy on gravel roads, take your time and get used to it.
      But without much off-road experience I'd say stay away from the sand and especially don't try to go up the sand dunes.
