Nice video. But now you need to come back to Washington to ride the best road...highway 20, the North Cascades Route. Known as the American Alps. Cheers.
hi liked your video, have a question. can i change my port of exit from danang to hanoi airport. during visa pplication port of entry was hanoi and exit was danang. port of entry remains the same. can port of exit be changed from da nang to hanoi. pls advice
@@ChasingtheSunVlog Yeah. I am from Colombia. My longest trip was 6 hours. My problem is accommodation, do you usually stay in cheap hotels? There are applications for free hosting but I don't know if they are secure
You didn’t address the heat coming off the Ducati. I had a 2006, 999, and I had to sell it. Well, really I traded it for a Bimota DB 5S, a bike with the air cooled 1000 engine.
I live in VietNam. Don't bribe Cops: ALL VEHICLES are EQUAL using the French Priorite A'doit system. Car drivers treasure their cars and avoid getting hit by motorcycles. Vietnamese are the most skilled bad drivers but Cops expect Foreigners to drive properly. ALWAYS USE A VIDEO CAMERA.
Get your own LOCK AND CHAIN because some crooked motorcycle shops steal their own bikes then demand you pay money. Cops expect (and know) Foreigners know how to drive properly so so don't mess around on a bike.
Yes. It actually makes sense to me because the bigger the vehicle, the slower they are you stop and manuever so it's best to watch out for those guys from a safety perspective. It's so different than in north america where pedestrians will just walk anywhere without really looking first.
Thank you for your time and posting. I'll go to VN in October for a few months to see if I want to retire there, starting in Hanoi and working my way down to HCMC. I tried Ecuador and that didn't work out. Looked into Portugal but... Nope. Malaysia is not for me. So we will see. :) Thank you again.
Great review. I’ve had the same bike for about a year now. I’ve got the dedicated GPS and cruise control. It’s really a good compromise. Not too heavy, handles well, great mpg. I’ve had ST1100s, St1300, FJR1300s, Ducati Multistrada 1260 and Concours. This is better than all of those, imo.
Nice Review. I own a 2018 R1200rs great bike. I needed the handlebar risers at 6ft 3in. Was looking it trading to newer bmw....After watching g your review and couple others I decided I'm keeping it....
Xingtian Temple is a taoist temple and you can only find taoist priests or temple assistants there. Monks can only be found in Buddhists temples. We normally will not address the entities in the Taoist temples as Gods but as deities.
I love it when riders share how they're getting the most out of their bikes. Thanks for the video! I went from an RSV4 to a Tuono because I wanted something more street-able and agree this bike let's you have your cake and eat it too in terms of being good in the corners while relatively comfortable. FWIW, as a taller rider I feel at home with a couple of mods (taller windscreen, lowered rear sets, higher and more angled handlebar).
I'm so surprised you would say the international license isn't needed. I researched a lot before spending a month in Vietnam riding from north to south. As expected, I was stopped by the cops on the Ha Giang Loop and they specifically based the 2 million dong fine on the fact that my international license did not have the motorbike endorsement.
@@ChasingtheSunVlog Ah OK, got it. Yes, I rode in Danang, Nha Trang, Ho Chi Minh and Phu Quoc and NEVER saw a cop. Hehe. I'll check out the vlog. Thanks!
Do not ever choose this school or you will regret it it is a front and does not offer a valid education and it is not supported by the Taiwan government.
Funny how the guys with the least amount of power is complaining about the K1300’s 4-cylinder power being “to refined”….too smooth?! More like your old tech (being a ‘15-‘16 vs. ‘10) shows how much they know about bikes/tech/engines in general…..
I am 69 this year ad riding a 2021 Tuono Factory. I am 5'9" and find the Tuono very comfortable for touring. The seat s quite cushy versus my old Triumph Street Triple 765R and versus KTM 890R . I added a Hepco & Becker rear luggage plate that replaces the pillion set or fin. I have different bags I can put on the rear plate so it is very adaptable for different lengths of trips this way. I also have heated grips installed which helps broaden my season and for high mountain passes. I put on about 15,000 km per year, no problem. There is adequate fairing to make high speeds on major highways and the cruise control round out me needs. I have never tried a Tracer but appreciate your info regarding that bike as well.
Sounds like you have a great setup. Curious what windscreen you're using because the wine bufetting is what I don't like about mine. I use the Power Bronze screen.
I have enjoyed your posts and value your opinion. I have 20 years riding the BC roads on vfrs, sv1000, ninja1000sx and a trick vtr1000f which is my favorite to date. I am torn between a bmw1250rs or new standard tuono. Based on your experience and my bike list which would you recommend I try first. Rarely a passenger, weekend trips, BC roads, not a racer but like fast pace and sweepers.
If you like the twisties as much as me, then you should definitely try the Tuono. I've had over 18 different motorcycles and this is my favorite motorcycle so far. My only knock on it is the lack of wind protection and also cramped position if you're a tall guy. If that is the case the 1250RS will fit you better. I like my 1200RS very much also and surprised how nimble it is. You can see my review here as a sports tourer. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9ws9otAJM44.html
Just picking up on this - I have 2023 1100 V4 Factory Tuono, I've made it touring friendly with the 2021+ Aprilia touring screen, Vogt 25mm bar risers, wireless charging and nav / phone mount, Hepco and Becker rear sportrack with SW Motech 22-34L Pro rear bag and SW Motech Pro Sport tank bag 12-17L - that gives me decent capacity without overloading the bike - Im about to put it to the test as my Superduke GT with better range and has luggage capacity has an issue and I can't use it
Thanks for your video, i actually did a tour to Halon Bay with a more budget tour package back Early January , i plan to return to Vietmam early next year and will do the better tour to Halon Bay this time, thanks for sharing your experiences with us.
Thanks , i was thinking some spending little time in Hanoi first , then contact Lilytravelagency to plan out the other cities that i want to visit also such as Danang, Hoi An , Hue. do you think is better to fly or take the train from Hanoi to the other cities that i mentioned ?
