Good video. That poor little bike, it looks like the Chinese are making a tough little product.
Cheers from the Pacific West Coast of Canada.

Wat een lekker leventje heb jij zeg. hahaha. "Opent tent recht voor de zee".. wat mooi zeg. veel plezier nog.
You need an adv for this kind of trip.
Noraly: nah, a 150cc Chinese Baotian will do 😂😂😂😂.
What a legend !!
Ik lees op FB dat er veel niet meer kijken naar haar filmpjes voor het moment, maar zelf laat ik haar niet in de steek. Ik geloof dat veel Amerikanen zich benadeeld voelen omdat ze weigert naar daar te gaan. Maar wanneer je de grens bereikt en ze vragen: wat vind je van Trump? Wat is dan een gepast antwoord om problemen te vermijden? Het is volkomen begrijpelijk dat ze daar tijdelijk wegblijft. Wat ze laat zien is hoe mooi onze aardkloot is met of zonder mensen. Ik moest dit even kwijt
hi, can someone explain me where is the Yamaha that started the adventure? I can find the moment when it switch? and why?
کی یمن را ترک می کنی؟ موتورسیکلت خودت بهتر است
