Robby Talks Racing

We start out by talking about the Tiger 900 which Sascha has ridden out today. Then we dive into the differences between the Tiger 900 and the KTM 790 and 890 ADV R and who should buy each one. 

I speak with Camro LaGuardia, the one behind the cameras in the scooter comparison on my channel, Expat on Two Wheels, and we discuss the things that didn't make the video and what goes into a scooter comparison. We do a deep analysis of the bikes on the market and discuss the new Force 2.0 that was recently announced. 

In this episode of the Sideways podcast I speak with Robby Kilpatrick, an avid rider in Taiwan's 300 cc racing scene. We discuss how he started the Facebook page about motorcycles that has become very popular with English speakers and advice for people getting into racing in Taiwan.

In this episode we talk about our progression from sport bikes to supermotos and then off-road riding and the pros and cons of each. We discuss dealing with the "devil on your shoulder" and the addiction to speed and riding too fast.

In this episode we discuss the impacts to a bike when you lower it and how to ride a tall bike off-road.

Ever wonder where people ride off-road? In this episode we discuss logging roads, riverbeds, and trails we ride and issues around access and ownership. We give tips on how to leave a smaller footprint and take care of the trails we love so much. 

This episode is about how to choose safety and protective gear for dual sport riding. It's tricky because the gear designed for dirt is very different from gear designed for the road due to the varying requirements in protection. We discuss what to look for in helmets, chest and back protectors, elbow and knee guards, adventure suits, boots, and gloves. 

In this episode we discuss the venerable Suzuki Vstrom 1000 and it's recent updates, the recent news and pricing on the Tenere 700 that has everyone talking, the new 1290 Adventure R, and the Pan America 1250 and what it means for the Asian market.

What's the best size bike for you? We discuss on-road, off-road, luggage options, and different types of trails on various size bikes. 

In this episode we discuss some of the best light, midsize, and heavy adventure bikes in Taiwan. Sascha Fenster has years of experience riding all types of adventure bikes and shares his insight.
