No mention in the video that the stock rear tyre was swapped for what looks like a Continental TKC80 or Shinko 805, cheeky!

The important take-away here is 'but it never stopped'.

That's what I said, he just used momentum to get through the climb. Anyways who really takes their motos to ride sand dunes??????

What do they Know? the people who watch this Guy.
I know I shuddered to see it being ridden on the Inter Tidal area, great way to destroy a Bike of any sort.
And to think someone will buy this Bike without knowing how it was broken in.

I think I need to rewatch this one on a colour TV, I think I’m missing something on the ol’ black and white portable…
I like his reviews, the only other guy I regularly watch is the one who scrambled a brand new 350 meteor (Bike World)

I was under the impression that scramblers were street bikes with tires and exhausts suitable for the occasional dirt road.

What exactly was the point of that video? Other than to abuse the bike, and make fun of the color choices. Gray with red skid pads, gray with yellow skid pads, gray with blue skid pads...

I thought the Point was to make him look smart, didn't work with me

What's the problem with abusing a bike like that? I kinda wish he'd had another scrambler type that he could try the same stuff with to show what a cracked engine case looks like.

Ride it Like You Stole it ! A Testament to RE that it survived, cost them less than taking them to the South Pole
Not like most people do this to their Motorcycles, or do they
I am Jealous.

I just assume demo bikes have been thrashed to death by people who knew what they were doing as well as people who had no idea of what they were doing. Buying a used bike is always caveat emptor but demo bikes are a whole other level of potential abuse.
