Adventure riding doesn’t have to cost $20,000. In this video, I break down how to build a capable ADV bike for under $5,000 — including which bikes to look for, the essential upgrades, and how to get the most out of a budget-friendly setup.

Whether you’re new to adventure motorcycling or just want a second bike that won’t break the bank, this guide will help you piece together a reliable and trail-ready machine.

In this video:

✔️ The best used ADV/dual sport bikes under $5K (DR650, KLR650, XR650L, WR250R, and more)
