Yeah, Charlie was really pissed about that. Tore the KTM posters off the wall in a fit of rage. Pretty interesting that the camera guy's cheap Chinese or Indian bike did a lot better in the tough stuff than the BMWs.

On that subject, these things are very cool and crazy cheap:

2017 RX3 Adventure - CSC Motorcycles - Adventure Touring Motorcycle - Zongshen

I've seen them several times in person and can say that they rival Japanese bikes in quality. I was pretty blown away at what you get for the money.
