Come along for a ride on my custom Honda DAX ST70 – converted with a 125cc Lifan engine – as I take it off-road through the legendary Maungatapu Track in Nelson, New Zealand.

The Maungatapu Track is one of Nelson’s most famous off-road trails, winding between Nelson and Pelorus Bridge. It’s known for its steep climbs, rocky surfaces, river crossings, and incredible views across the valleys and forests. A true test for any motorcycle or 4WD, this track has a bit of everything for off-road adventure seekers.

In this video, you’ll see how my little Honda DAX – built in the garage, customized for the dirt, and tuned for off-road fun – handles the rough and rugged conditions of the Maung. From rocky hill climbs to forest trails, it’s all about testing the limits of this classic minibike on one of New Zealand’s most iconic adventure routes.
