Well, if you're going to fall down a lot, the KLR is a good machine to do it on.

OMG that is funny stuff.
The locals are getting a free show. The sad thing is he probably has a drivers license. He bought a good quality video camera just to video himself being a total loser.

Props to an Adventurer. Dry conditions/ knobbies could have been a different outcome.

That guy is Ryan Grassley. He was living in Panama at the time but has moved back to the US and is now on a BMW. He's a real rider; he's just not afraid to make fun of himself.

The one thing i have noticed when videoing and riding is how much easier the terrain looks on video. I ride on something rough and or steep but when I watch it on video it just doesn't seem to come close to capturing how bad some of the terrain is or steepness of a grade. maybe it's the camera (Gopro HD hero) or the angle i have it mounted on the handlebars. With the mud and angle of that terrain it doesn't look impossible but i wouldn't probably even attempt it on either my 2000 KLR650 or 2012 DL-650. I wouldn't hesitate on my wr250r however since it is so much easier to pick up than the KLR.
I do applaud him for filming himself even though some think it made him look like a loser, I think it showed more what people should be like. Be yourself and who gives a cr*p what someone else thinks of you. I wish I could be a little more that way myself.
