All the details and prices. No one ever does that. Epic, well done. Thanks
Yeah, I figured it can help give a guide on rough costs people are up for, even if they choose different stuff... glad it was helpful
That was a great video. Thanks very much for taking the time to do it, you helped me a lot in choosing what to take and use.
Good stuff mate, that's what it's all about hey, hoping it gives someone some ideas & gets you thinking about how you could do things. Hopefully I get out and use it soon, good luck with your set-up and thanks for the comment.
2011 rode RTW with what I could fit in soft panniers . And only took what I needed. 😊😊😊
Fantastic video mate, just the video I was after! Stay safe mate
Good to hear... I'm still new to the motorbike camping scene but the gear above (bar the jacket), I'm happy with.
Thanks mate. Great set up.
You did a detailed, thorough job on this video, thanks.
Thanks for the feedback mate, hope it was useful.
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. Great content, keep them coming...
Thanks for the kind words, glad it was useful.
Thanks Mate. Im in NZ n about to head out on first camping tip on Himalayan, you just gave a good heads up on what I need to go shopping for. Cheers
No worries mate. On the bigger bike I can fit a hiking stretcher and hiking table too, might be something to consider if you want the luxury.... hope you have an awesome time!
Really good video and some really useful tips there.
I am surprised how much stuff could actually fit in that Aldi bag. I have not done any motorcycle camping yet but it's definitely on my list of things to do. Thanks for sharing and taking the time to create this video..rock on!
Cheers mate, yeah it's a pretty long bag. The DRZ feels the weight up high a bit, makes it harder to handle - might look into suspension upgrade. Vstrom took more gear, mostly in panniers and very little in a bag and didn't notice any handling issues - actually felt like it stabilised the bike at speed. You'll love it!
That was a fantastic video. Kept waiting for the cook to come out and "Hey darl, need anything down the shops?" Keep up the grouse job.
Thanks mate, appreciate the feedback. Haha pretty much, except I'd be called worse than 'darl'!
Great tips and production, thank you! I mount a similar 3 litre Ossa dry bag on my rear Tusk rack, but mine is sideways to let me slide back on the seat while riding. (needed to put a flat lifter board to keep it away from hot pipe) I'm going to get the smaller panniers and try your set up. Cheers!
Thanks for the comment, Jack. I did try my dry bag sideways originally, but found my bike handled better along the seat (mind you I probably should re-try it sideways with the rear shock a few clicks harder to see if that helps). Good luck with the panniers hunt mate!
I think we've all done this and it's quite staggering how much you can pack on a bike...constantly evolving 👍
Yeah, since the vid: traded stool for hiking chair and added stretcher and small table (with Vstrom panniers, prob won't fit on DRZ)
Nice walkthrough the gear set up. Currently in the process of buying my initial set ready for adventures! Almost there!
Subbed :)
Thanks for the comment and sub. Enjoy the buying process - certainly part of the fun!
that zipper moment tho xD
This is one of my favorite parts, the pack up, it just amazes me how tight I can pack so much in my motorcycle and when you lay it out the groud like that, it seems to be impossible to carry all that, and that's where we get creative. Never surrender comfort :D
Recently, I purchased a 60L hiking bag and the strap that comes with it became the perfect straps to put it on my sissy bar. I just add bungee cord for peace of mind. That thing holds my tent, sleeping bag, inflatable pillow, cooking materials tarp, ropes, ground sheet, insulator, and so much more! Then I have a 50L saddle bag - that's just an overkill at this point - that carries all my personal effects like clothing, food, make-up (I mean, really? Yes really. Never forget make up lol), tools, oil, and spare parts. Oh and I have a pillion when we go camping - her stuff goes to the saddle bag.. and this is us "packing light" hahaha My bestfriend and I just love to go out riding and camping. :D
Definitely surprising! Sounds like you've got a great setup that suits you guys well - that's what it's all about hey.
Love your work, I'm just a beginner and your video was the first video I watched. We have a 4x4 truck where we carry a bike on the back. So I'm looking for ideas for these bike camping trips we would be having. Thanks again.
Sounds pretty epic mate, got all bases covered. I'm still amateur myself - would love to get out and adventure more often. Will check out your channel.
Thanks for the video. Great to reference what others are doing in the event I might be missing something.
Thanks, it's all fairly straight forward gear, but I guess we all want as compact and light as possible, with the right balance of comfort/practicality. I bought a proper hiking chair now - good purchase. And have a stretcher on the road bike (bigger panniers).
You might consider a portable electric bear fence when predators abound. A compact 2.4 lbs for huge peace of mind.
Probably not a bad idea if you live in an area with dangerous animals. Here in Australia, it's snakes & spiders - not sure the bear fence will help with these.
Awesome set up , thank-you.
Thanks mate, cheers
Great vid there mate. It's amazing how much gear you can eventually load onto a bike if carefully chosen. The biggest challenge is managing all the heavy "fluids" (petty, water, grog) you might need to carry with you, depending on where you go, as that is where all the weight is. I still haven't figured out how to make a slab lighter. 🤔
You have picked the tent that I want to get, seems a good choice from all the others I have looked at buying. Tried a stool when camping once, just not comfortable/relaxing enough when sitting on it for any length of time. I have a OZtrail Compaclite Discovery Chair ($40 - 2.4kg) which is the most comfortable chair I've ever gone camping with. Much cheaper than the Helinox gear. Thanks mate. 👍
Thanks mate, yeah you're spot on about the liquids.... I don't usually do massive trips so the 17L Safari tanks takes care of the fuel, 2 x water bladders for water & 1 x 1.25 soft drink with spirits for grog.... works for over nighters.... I've upgraded to one of the hiking chairs since that vid, definite improvement 👍✊
Nice set up mate, setting up my drz at the moment to make it adventure ready. I have the same jacket and the idea of the double zip is so you can zip up from the bottom , handy when you need a leak or do up ya pants. Subbed.
Cheers mate, setting up your bike is heaps of fun (except for the expense part) - enjoy! Thanks for explaining the jacket, it's good to hear the double zip serves a purpose. Maybe I'll learn to appreciate it down the track - it was getting quite hot during that video, fighting with it hahaha
Excellent job mate. From a drz400 owner new to camping, and wanting to figure out what's what, you've pretty much done it for me. My only problem is, I don't want the panniers, so will have to stack my gear a bit taller on the b&b racks. 😎👍
Good luck with it all mate. I can confirm that I found the bike handled way worse with the gear on it, no matter what I did - had suspension beefed up, bigger tank, steering stabilizer, 15t front sprocket, etc, etc.
Maybe it was my shithouse ability or something different with my bike, as others seem to manage fine. Anyhow, I have a KTM 500 now, and love riding in the sand - hated it on the DRZ!
Hopefully it works out for you and thanks for watching and passing on your thoughts.
Awesome info, thanks for sharing 🙏
No worries, thanks for watching
A great vid. Good info and to the point. I've 'liked' and subscribed. Thanks.
Cheers mate, I appreciate the kind words and the sub.
Thanks for the video. A fair effort to show what u take and how it looks setup.👍🍻
Whats a video like that take you to film and edit, a day or 2?
Thanks mate, appreciate it. These type are probably yeah, an hour or two to shoot and a few hours when I can to edit. It's the riding ones where you link up cameras that take ages to edit.
Great Work mate, very helpful.
Thanks mate, glad it's useful
thanks mate, makes me excited about my trip.
Good stuff mate, where ya headed?
Great vid mate, awesome set up.👌
Thanks mate
Great video mate, would have loved to see some of the hardcore adventure riding to get to that ripper camp spot he he
Mate, dodging the neighbour's eggs as I circled the block was exhilarating.... 'if you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge an egg' 🤣
Cool from the U. S. if that is your backyard it is really a nice space. Great shake down on the gear and the videography was fun.
Thanks for the comments mate. Yeah, it's our backyard, some good times are had in firepit area! Really looking forward to taking the bike and camping gear away very soon - hopefully Fraser Island.
I am a fan of the Mosko Moto Reckless 80 ( or 60) soft pannier system that ties onto the bike. it isn't cheap, so not for tight arses. The side bags are held in a holster and the top bag is held by a beaver tail wrap over to hold your duffle bag in place ( sideways) . I don't take a pillow, but shove my Aldi puffer jacket into my spare Tee shirt to make a pillow. For summer camping I take a plastic tarp the same size as my mattress, a light weight tarp for dew protections and sleep in a bivi bag ( plus a sleeping bag if cold). For winter I use a tarp tent ( Aluxe pyramid) with a single central pole. Super quick to erect when caught in a storm.
Sounds like a good setup. The Mosko set looks good, if I used it more often, I'd look into it.
Fellow Aussie here I Just got myself a 2012 DRZ400E with just under 6k on the clock for $5k has all the bells and whistles, including all B&B bash plate barkbusters case savers all round the side stand and clutch mod has already been done I just added a charging phone mount with a on off switch so it don't drain battery while not in use the only things it don't have yet is after market exhaust and jd jet kit this video has inspired me great work thanks for the tips mate have to get out and do this soon
Awesome mate, sounds like you've got yourself a great bike for a great price.... Go the mighty DRZ!
Great informative video mate!
Thanks mate, glad it was useful.
Great run down and set up, well done. Only point I noticed was blowing the mattress and guessing the pillow up by mouth (and the blow bag). Bad move, your blowing moisture into both, that will grow mould. Eventually, every time you deflate them, your shooting toxin spawns out. A small usb charged blower costs about $30 and is the same size as 1 of your lights.
Thanks for the tip mate. Yeah mattress has been by blowing. Pillow is self inflating foam. Will look into the usb blower 👍
great video, thx.
Thanks mate, appreciate that!
cheers for this, very helpful! planning to make a vid taking my drz out soon and camp from it for the first time. Only thing I think i'll add is a bit of fishing gear (:
Nice mate. Yeah, since then I've added a 4 piece fishing rod 👍
Looks like fun. Keep the camera rolling, man!
Aiming for at least 4 motorbike camp trips this year - 2 on DRZ and 2 on Vstrom - all going well!
Useful vid!
Thanks mate, glad to hear it
Great video mate, your setup is practically identical to mine 👍 ATB
Thanks mate, enough to keep you comfortable without being too much of a hinderance hey!
I love your motorbike 😍😍 i would like to have one but she is so much high( I'm small😢) ✌😁 Enjoy your ride with her !! See you from 🇨🇵
They are pretty good, and yeah, being a trail bike, sit a bit high. Maybe look into a lowering kit and see if that's do-able.
Nice video for sharing.
Thanks mate, appreciate it.
Laugh at "Free beer at this campsite" .... Great vid, really enjoyed it 🤠👍
Thanks mate, itching to get out and use it all again!
@@AdvHQ you and me both.... has been raining for the last two weeks in Cairns, hoping to get out sometime next week for a ride....
Great video buddy ride safe
Cheers mate, appreciate the feedback 👍✊
Cheers mate, 👍🇦🇺.from Yamba..I do it with a board rack, light camping gear etc on my KLX 250 😅👍.. Sandon point, Brooms head,Wooli...🏄..Good vid🍻
Thanks mate, nice part of the world down there!
@@AdvHQ going for a verseys next or if I can find a 6 days SWM 👍👍
Good on you mate. Nicely done, and very informative. :-)
Thanks mate, appreciate that 👍✊

Good stuff.
Cheers mate
Good tips. If you had the long roll bag on the Fraser trip I can see you can't get your butt far back enough for the sand, why the front tyre digs in 👍
Yeah, possibly.... or just my skill 🤣 the load does make a difference for sure
Nice 👍🙂
Great work mate
Thanks mate. Hope it helps someone out - just need to get back into using it all again!
@@AdvHQ I'm starting to build my kit now
@@ThrottleDownunder good stuff. Half the fun is researching and buying the gear. I've got a couple more luxuries for the road bike - hiking stretcher and a table. Just waiting on the panniers - the wait is the killer!
Good vid mate...looks like you pack a bit lighter than me 😳👍🏻
Cheers mate, I try to keep it simple on the bike.... family camper trailer trips do my head in with all the stuff 'needed' 😁
Nealy died when the price list was put up 😮 WOW , nice video though 😎👌 and NOT knockin you mate .
just did a quick count of my gear and came in at around $370. but was not including riding jacket or trousers as we all ready have them 😉👍
Hahaha , could be i am a CHEAP BARSTOOL 🤣🤣
keep well and ride safe ish mate 😎🍺
ps, hear ya on the neck pain 😣 i get it and have dodgy knees and 2 crushed lower vertabra 😒 oh and cant spell for sh&t 🤣😣
Thanks for the reply mate, sounds like you did well with your purchases (I could've used the extra beer money!) - would've been nice if our Kmart stocked the gear - like some do. But I'm still happy with what I got - bought it all last year so it's last year's pain now! Lucky I didn't add it up then!
That did include the panniers as well - $220.
Let's hope our aging bodies can get us a few more good trips in yet hey!
@@AdvHQ yeah i got the cheap panniers of ebay $80. Kmart air bed $20. kmart backpack with 2ltr bladder $25. DID i say i was a CHEAP BASTED 🤣🤣😉
but i do commend that you get a ebay collapsible seat WELL WORTH IT 😎👍
keep well Sir looking foward to the next video 😁🍺
Great video, Snowys is the best for camping gear. How has the tent been, is it waterproof?
Haven't done heaps of trips in it, let alone much rain, but we did get a shower on that trip and I was dry inside. As with most hiking tents, if it was bucketing for hours and pretty flat land (no drainage), might get a bit wet inside but not as bad as outside! haha the bases are adequate but it is a hiking tent. Cheers for watching and commenting.
hey mate good vid looking at buying a drz do you have any problems with your carbi or high speeds or anything else that I should know about the bike
Hey, the bike's been great. Only issue was one of the breather hoses got blocked in a puddle and cut it out. They're now moved to the air box. I had it rejetted when I got the Yoshi exhaust. I don't really like it over 85km/h, I think it's part me (as over 95 on the road bike I get nervous too), and part MX front tyre. Now that I'm gonna use it more for adventure style, I'll probably go 44t on the rear sprocket which might help. I'll probably get the suspension suited to carry luggage better too. They're a great all rounder type bike - I'll probably always keep it, and add bikes better suited to specific riding. Good luck on your purchase. I did a walk around vid last year too - ua-cam.com/video/IUdtBIQ0xu8/v-deo.html
Great video. Just starting my ADV Journey here in Kiwiland. Im in me 50s. about to get my Ls. I was looking at Dr650 as it was better suited to taking on th open road to get to the trails. But see quite a few Ozzies on the DRZ400.. So how do you gear yours and is it an issue for you. Im not needing speed but NZ roads often hilly and twisty. I lke the DRZ being lighter and more manageable on trails. Why did you settle on DRZ. Im about 185cm and 90kg. Great👍
Hey mate, I originally bought it as it's an easy to ride, reliable trail bike. Only intention was to ride single trail at the time and follow my son around on his 50/110cc.... after a few months I started being interested in camping trips and slowly built it for that too.... I find it quite vibraty and skittish over 85km/h (might be due to mx tyre!?) and it may need some suspension work for when loaded up as handling is worse then.... I got a Vstrom 650 for road touring/camping and have now ordered a Beta Xtrainer for single track, as now the DRZ is a bit awkward in the tight stuff.... I'm not a good rider, will likely always sit in the beginner/novice level but enjoy hopping on for an adventure....the DR650 are fantastic from everyone I've spoken to.
Mine is geared 15t front, std 47 rear. 181cm about 80kg without gear.
Have you had any dramas with the charging system on the quadlock USB port ? I’ve found mine to disconnect sometimes from the connection being loose
No I haven't had any issues. I bought a smaller usb to c adapter (about 8 inches long), and it's been good so far - have done some pretty corrugated tracks, etc. In saying that, I've probably only used it on 4-5 rides in these conditions. So mine may not have loosened up yet.
What brand is your windshield ? Great video thank you 😊
It's called a 'screens for bikes' screen. Thanks mate
Hey mate, I have been looking at grabbing that big duffel bag from aldi for a 7 day trip on my lil dual sport. Any tips on mounting fuel to the bike with a bag that big? Can't really afford a larger tank, trying to do this as cheap as possible.
You could strap a 5L jerry on - quite a few do but I didn't like the idea of that weight on the sub-frame.
@@AdvHQ Yea I was wondering about that. Will have to look into it and see if I am confident with that weight on the sub frame. Thanks mate, keep up the great content.
@@TheHermos66 ua-cam.com/video/3WHwvMjFMNw/v-deo.html I went through the process a while ago. Have just upgraded suspension (haven't test rode properly yet) but that's nearly another grand $$.
Good stuff mate, but why no tank bag?
Cheers mate, no reason, just haven't bought one yet... would be good for some knick-knacks
Great video! Just one thing that bothers Me - your ride - It is your way home - Why would you leave it out in the rain and the elements? I always have a cover for my bike.
Cheers mate, I only do occasional camping trips, not full-time (I wish!), so I don't think a night or 2 every now & again will do much damage.
@@AdvHQ No problem. We went camping last spring and woke up to freezing rain. Had to ride on the shoulder for over 30 miles. That was a real eye opener. Everyone ok but front tire kept washing out on us. I guess we were a bit early to get out there.
@@tedbryer2512 sounds like a rough ride mate, glad all were well.
Did your Jetboil flash ignition die ..???
Didn't think it had one... will have a look for one on it next time it comes out - packed away for its next trip now!

hate to messed that 777 subscribers
Haha pretty happy with the numbers mate, but happy to keep marching on!
Looks like you set up in the back yard 🤣
Yes mate, was taking the piss a bit 😉
Liked the vid, but that accent of yours is really an incident😆. Greets from Germany.
wheres your TV AND FRIDGE HA HA ... OMG
Looks like a lot, I know. But what do you get rid of? I've changed the stool for a hiking chair since, but that's about it.
And TV is camp fire 😉
where is the tool kit bud. hammer cant fix everything 🤣
Haha tools are in the side panniers(they have pouches underneath) - I did talk about them briefly but didn't spread them out.... tube, levers, DRZ tool kit, zip ties, etc
@@AdvHQ Awesome man. love the video and the bike, super. im doing a 4 nighter with my KLR 650 in the next month or so. Greetings from South Africa
@@3104thunderchild sounds awesome mate... are you gonna upload a vid of the trip?
@@AdvHQ yeah im sure i will do. i have 1 video of just a dusty day ride on my channel at the moment. not very good quality but viewable. hoping to get some better sound and etc on my next video. we going around The Lesotho Border in South Africa. going to be stunning views for sure
@@3104thunderchild cool... sub'd and look forward to watching it - KLR 650 are a ripper do it all bike
