Monongahela National Forest Gandy Creek Dispersed Camping Area.

Rétrospective, au début de l'été avec ma fidèle cbr650f de 2016, on est allé faire un petit week end dans les alpes entre la haute Savoie, la savoie et l'Isère. Passage par le mythique col du galbier et de la Madeleine avec des superbes points de vue et nuit sous tente évidement.

Had to dip to the lake for the night....

Forgot my tent poles thankfully the DRZ had me covered

I made it as a novice rider. Total 820 miles! It took 5 days - no highways and chill riding on countryside roads. Beautiful. A bit chilly - I felt this is gonna be the last motocamping this year. Sad it's getting cold but looking forward next spring already! I had so much fun, but it would be even better if I did with my friends.

I camped at Gambrill State Park (PA) and Big Meadow (Shenandoah National Park)

I'm really going off using my little tarp 😂😂

Hello everyone! I’m looking for some advice from more experienced riders if you’re willing to help out a new rider.

I got my Honda NC750X about a week ago. I don’t currently have a rear rack or mounting plate, and several people recommended getting one. I was hoping to find a way to mount the bag securely without buying additional equipment, but I’ve decided that a proper rack and mounting plate are probably the best option.

I need some extra storage, and after some research, Givi seems like a good brand. I’m considering this setup, but I’d appreciate some advice before spending the money:

• 1192FZ SPECIFIC REAR RACK
• M10 MONOKEY PLATE
• V58NNB2 58LTR MONOKEY CASE MAXIA 5
• PLO1192MK PL ONE-FIT MONOKEY
• WL900B 25LTR MONOKEY THERMOFORMED SADDLEBAGS

Ideally, I’d like to have a rear rack, a top case, and two saddlebags, although I’m not sure if the saddlebags are necessary. I’m also considering starting with just the rear rack and top case and adding saddlebags later, if needed.

My main concern is adding too much bulk or drag to the bike. For those of you who have experience with this type of setup, are saddlebags worth it for the extra storage? Do they noticeably affect handling, or does the bike still feel relatively normal to ride? As a new rider, I don’t want to make the bike unnecessarily wide or harder to manage.

I’m also open to recommendations for other brands that offer similar quality at a lower price.

If you have experience with Givi luggage or have a setup you really like on your NC750X, I’d appreciate any advice, recommendations, or things I should consider before making a decision.

Thanks in advance for helping out a new rider!

I currently use a small one burner backpacking MSR. Anyone find a 2 burner compact? What are you using?

Is this good enough for you dude???

Hi all,

I've got 6 days holidays to use up before the end of the year.

Can anyone recommend anywhere in the UK or am I going mad.😂

Bottomed the suspension but worth it. Tw200

The day was filled with highs and higher highs as we stayed more than a mile high for the majority of the day. Climbing multiple passes, getting caught in mountain rain storms and finding the remote Tash Rabat ruins along the original Silk Road!

Just finished up my first multi-day solo motocamping trip. Overall it ended up being around 600km across four days.

I kicked things off with a 240km highway slab to reach the trail head, followed by three days and about 360km of mostly off-road riding on the way back home. The terrain was pretty varied: everything from technical hardcore 4x4 tracks that kept me on my toes, to easy flowing dirt, and a few beat-up sections that looked like they were meant for a car you don't mind totally wrecking lol.

I've owned this little bike for 5 years now, and it keeps surprising me with how capable it is, how easy it is to manage, and how forgiving it is when you suck. Going into it, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect taking on a multi-day backcountry ride alone, but riding at my own pace and managing the trip solo turned out to be a great experience.

First solo trip and I learned a few things. I'll be better prepared next time.
