Designing a Motorcycle for Overland Adventures

We discuss what we think are the most important requirements for the perfect overlanding motorbike and what we would include in the blueprints for motorcycle design.

Listener Questions

Scott Dobie - Pandemonium in Trip Planning

For someone who wants to do a trip, [post covid], how should one cope with all the noise? Soft bags, hard bags, smaller bike, large bike, the bike you love, no planning, a little planning, plan your borders, just rock up, don’t worry, just go, don’t be silly…

Scott Dobie - On Back of the Bike

What are some tips and tricks to make the pillion more comfortable on longer trips. Bike brand, bike size, gear, modifications? I have a Honda AT and I love it but [my pillion] gets sore and is not interested in more than short rides. With the pillion strictly in mind, would a GS be more comfortable for the pillion etc?


SAM MANICOM:

Sam’s Long Sleeve Motorcycle Travel T-Shirt

It’s blend of yarns give an incredibly soft feel (which stays soft even with repeat washing),

·         The shirts pack down small, 

·         The creases drop out fast – within minutes, 

·         And they dry amazingly quickly.
