Any 2000s era cheap hi-8 tape camera

Thank you!

You will have an incredible trip!!! So much to see and so much good food. Ride safe :)

The XR190 should be good I would not worry about the bike as long as it’s been maintained well. We rode an XR150! From town to town it wasn’t too far maybe a 200km a day. The bike had enough power for two and our bags

thanks man!

I had absolutely no issues other than the horn button stopped working which I got fixed at a local shop for a few dollars because it is super necessary. I only brought spare tubes with me which I did not need. The XR150 is very reliable depending on where you are getting it from. Bike handles very well for the roads in vietnam. I highly recommend it over the mopeds and scooters. There are a lot of local bike mechanics that if you should run into any issue they can help.

@@kevinphan thank you for the reply sir , drive safe :)

I would not worry about getting robbed so much. I had $1,000 USD in vietnamese currency. I carried this under my shirt with a "hidden" fanny pack/waist belt. I used a lot of ATMs along the way. My bank didnt charge me any fees as long as I used an ATM with the same merchants.

@@kevinphan charles schwab?

@@John_DaMan you can use that. I have a bank called JDCU.

i bought it from tigit. there are a lot of motorscoot shops around that sell lots of cool helmets

@@kevinphan Thanks man. Ik looked great! How much was it?

Martijn very cheap, around $20USD

Ravi Singh no, nobody cares really. If someone makes a problem, just bribe them with 5 bucks

@@prvoslav320 thanks 5 bucks..you mean euro/dollar/rubles etc :) :)

how much a second hand bike would cost normally

@@rabbu188 i mean dollars :) You can find a chinese Honda semi-automatic copy for $200. But I would recommend the real Honda Wave semi-automatic, which you can buy used for around $450

@@prvoslav320 how to distinguish between fake and real honda

Rolling Tones they didn’t have straps when we rented our bike but we stopped at Ben Thanh market and grabbed supplies we needed including bungee cords/straps. We bought helmets from Tigit and they were around $20 for a cheap one and upwards. I’d spend a little extra because it is your head after all. I definitely recommend riding up DT725 I believe is the route and then we headed towards the coast where the views were incredible. I definitely recommend a handle bar bag that holds your phone where you can read the GPS if you are going to use it. Just remember to cover your phone from the sun because it’ll overheat quickly I found out.

Derek M no issues without international license. Stay away for the mui ne sand dunes because of the cops looking for bikers without a license. We rented from Tigit and it was around $400 for the 20-23 days we had it for. I highly recommend getting the XR or something similar because it will handle the road conditions a lot better. I see guys doing it with a Honda Win, which I don’t recommend. They are ok for city riding but for the cross country trip you are better off with something like the XR. We spent maybe another $80 on fuel. Stayed at hotels or lodges that ranged from $12-50 a night. Hope that helps!!

@@kevinphan Hey thanks this helps big time! any MUST SEE stops you'd recommend?

Derek M marble mountains near hoi an was great but honestly everything was wonderful. We rode mainly along the coast from Saigon to Hue and the views all around us was incredible. Take it slow and stop everywhere you can

Morgenstern Philipp no but recommended

Richard van Kesteren have fun and ride safe :) bike rental was through tigit (they have a Hanoi office too) and it was around $400usd for the 25 ish days we had it. So about $16 a day

Blair enjoy your time there, it is amazing

hi..my name is Ravi. even i am planning a road trip in Feb 2020 around 20 days. are you doing the same month,if yes may be we both can do the road trip together.

Ming Seun round trip in 15 days may be possible but you would be riding long days I think. It took us maybe 17 days from south to north staying a few days in different areas.

Diego Colombi rented it from Tigit

minh roisier it took us around 15 days. riding on average 5-6 hr days

Jordan Vazquez that’s really awesome to hear!! Check out www.lockcitydrift.com for upcoming events. Hope to see you at the next one :)

@@kevinphan for sure, will you guys be at Street Series Round 4 on the 18th?

It definitely was enough power for us to rip around town and in the mountains as well. The total load on the bike was probably close to 330 pounds with us and 3 bags strapped to the back.

These are very reliable and there is a good amount of shops throughout the normal routes that can service them if anything does happen.

We were there from middle of Jan to middle of Feb. A few days with rain but most of our ride was in very nice sunny weather

If you ever have a chance I recommend visiting this country for a few weeks.

kevin phan i would like one day or maybe next year.

Best way to see the country is on a bike!

@@kevinphan how to return the rental bike? They have a shop there?

@@BB-qk5zz they have a few locations throughout vietnam where you can return the bike

@@kevinphan would it b better to buy or rent?

@@BB-qk5zz very easy to rent

Vietnam does not recognize our licenses with that being said they will rent bikes to foreigners with a deposit and copy of their passport. Check out www.tigitmotorbikes.com/ we went through them and it was a very easy process

ervone09 thank you!

AK Media thank you, see you at the next event :)

Bernard Lim it was a bike w rented from Tigit. I highly recommend them

@@kevinphan How did you return the bike!?

@@bernardlim8418 We rented it from Ho Chi Minh and returned it to their office in Hanoi. They have one in Hue I believe. You can pick up from any location and return to any location you choose as long as you work the details out with them beforehand. They are very helpful and all speak english very well.

@@kevinphan I'm thinking of riding across Vietnam this coming July, and I have a couple of questions. Is there anyway else I can reach out to you?

Tiến Vũ it was amazing. We plan on moving here for a while

yeeeeeh
