in 2006 myself and 2 friends decided upon a 'Long Way Round' style trip, inspired by the Charlie and Ewan. We didn't't have their budget, we didn't have a tv crew, in fact we didn't really have money. We set off from the UK, 2 of us on XT 600's and I was on a newer XTz660. our route was not dissimilar to yours until we got to Mongolia. I and a friend ran out of money, though the 3rd chap by chance met another English guy and they both continued on the Road of Bones through to Magadan and then to USA. Overall, my most memorable occasions were the ones when were were in trouble. ALWAYS someone came to our assistance. If it were a push, if it were a spanner, if it were welding, if it were a bed for the night and a drink together. We found, the less people have, the more they are inclined to share it with you. Often we found ourselves in a spot of bother (even a similar in Ukraine to your russian visa problem (100 Bucks made it go away to the right person)) but it was a life changing experience. If you are thinking of doing something similar, DO IT. Life is short, life is uncertain and life is for living. LIVE IT!

We hiked around the base of the Mayon volcano, came back down for lunch and they claimed they had nothing. Turned out they fed us the last of their food. Long story short you are right, the more poor people are the more they want to help.

I have a 2012 NC700 and everything is fine, I rode about 12000km on it, in total it has 24000km on it now. I bought it as my first bike. My longest tour was 2000km, the only issue I had was that I ran out of fuel (500m before the gas station and it was totally my fault, the range is fine). The fuel gauge is a bit pessimistic xD The only other things I did (except the regular maintenance at 12k and 24k)was change the tires, replace the fork seals at 18k km and change the chain at 22k (it was already in bad shape when I bought it)

After a very bad food poisining in Kashgar my travel partner and me had to go back to Bishkek for a new chinese visa and spent four months there in KGZ...... the most impression experience was the very amazing kindness and hospitality of the people on the whole trip. my next adventure will be the Panamericana from Anchorage to Ushuaia, but then by motobike.. stay safe and healthy and enjoy your life !

Dave, Darren...Wonderful. Well done all round. I realise it's been a while since this was first put in KZbin, but I'd be very interested in a full break down of your trip. I guess it would be a video on the 18 months prep you did prior to the trip. Some of the things I'm interested in are: Costs, including cost of bikes, cost of getting them ready and exactly what changes you made to frame, suspension etc etc and the costs for that. What gear you carried etc etc. Also interested in things like how many punctures did you have over the 4 months, what sort of tyres you guys ran.......Visas and costs for those and so on. Once again though ,WONDERFUL STUFF!

I don't know if that's really true, it's just that people are less likely to talk to strangers. Much easier to strike up a conversation in a county pub when there are only 3 people in there :)

Another thing I keep seeing is how "kind" people are. Isn't it odd how we typically judge an entire people based on their government? I think we can all find a common theme here as far as where most of our problems come from. It isn't the people as much as it is their gov'ts.

You mean west is ruining reputation of state which backstabbed other countries during WWII and started it together with Germany? Hitler wouldn't start the war without Stalin by his side. Now with Putin in power they try to write new history. And yes, people are nice in Ukraine and Russia, but no one says people there are bad, it's just corrupt government that you hear about.

So lessons learned: ride a diesel bike or install a fuel filter if you drive thru russia :) Same thing 25 years along the way to Greece, it's only possible in a diesel or an older car without injection. And you have to be prepared to clean the filter if you running low on fuel before refueling. I guess the issue is greater on petrol because it's more fluid and on vibrations particles keep going thru the tank. Else petrol bikes tend to suck from the bottom of the tank, diesel trucks not, they have a lower layer in the tank which is never used.
