I love this video, I would like to setup my WR450 in a similar fashion... smaller tank and deeper gearing for singletrack rides, bigger tank and taller gearing for light-duty adventure riding. I suppose the light-duty adventure riding means around 90% dirt, hauling just enough gear to camp and carry enough fuel to travel 200+ miles. I'm not talking about a bike that you'd ride to Alaska... but perhaps around Baja... exploring the backroads around Moab, the Swell, etc.
I've slowly been gathering stuff to go this direction, would love to add an oil cooler, Rekluse and a cush drive hub... but for now I have a Acerbis 6.6 gallon tank, the more comfortable seat and a 15 tooth counter-sprocket. Hey, it's a start!
Great tech about setting up a WR450 for longer rides... some great beach drifting and wheelies too!
