dirt dame 559 Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) These two guys have a goofy adventure on 50 year old enduro bikes, since 90 percent of the roads up here in Wyoming are not paved. Edited February 1, 2023 by dirt dame 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThumperBob 21 Posted February 3, 2023 The video makes me miss my 1970 RT1 Yamaha Enduro.☹️ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cmbthumper 160 Posted February 3, 2023 Thank you for the vid. That 75' Honda XL350 is calling my name for my next ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tntmo 887 Posted February 3, 2023 I recently picked up an older Honda, would be fun to take it out on something like this. I think I would be okay to ride some pavement if I had to. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.JAJA 380 Posted February 3, 2023 I can't remember how many I had in my younger days. Yamaha DT250, DT50, XT500, XT550, TT600, Honda XL185, XL500, XL600RV and the 2stroke KTM'S 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 559 Posted February 3, 2023 My first bike was an HT1, was the same color as the DT in the video. Because I had that bike, I knew what was going to happen to it when it hit all that mud. The front wheel got locked up and I fell down on my HT, the first time I rode it in mud too.😂 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThumperBob 21 Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) Loved them both. I rode the Enduro all over San Diego county. A few trips out to Borrego Springs and back.😁 Edited February 3, 2023 by ThumperBob 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zubb 1061 Posted February 3, 2023 They were the genesis of todays Adv bike movement. I miss the economy and the simplicity of those days. …. Right up until I sling a leg over my 1250. 😂 Here’s my dad Adventure riding his Yamaha 80 across Idaho. I really enjoyed that movie. Half expected @tntmo to make a guest appearance in the middle of that snow storm and rescue them with a stick of chewing gum and a shoelace. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tntmo 887 Posted February 3, 2023 I felt so bad for them having to give up on the fix in the field and load up the bikes on the truck. Still....they crossed the entire state on those old bikes, very impressive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zubb 1061 Posted February 3, 2023 I know!! I was surprised the truck bailed out. WTH?! Granted, I've not 4WD'd mud like that. But I have ridden it in Colorado. I pushed the locked up front wheel for awhile in spite of it, but that didn't last too long. Too slick to put a foot down and hold the bike. Had to get in a rut and stay in it to just stay on the trail. We quickly tired of that game and picked out way back out. Did a simple 180, like a slow motion overweight ballerina . . . No getting out of there until that fender was removed. Mud packed up in there like concrete. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
