[@osimnod]

Appreciate your changing perspectives on each episode. The Aral Sea is such a man-made disaster -- wonder if it would be possible to reverse the damage if water flow were returned to it? On the bikes, since the Suzuki is a pretty simple machine, did you have any gas quality problems? Others riding more refined bikes - Ewen and Charlie in LWR, Dave and Darren on MAD TV - suffered from fuel injection problems.

I am impressed by the realiabilty of the DR350, I have a BETA M4 with the DR350 engine and Im the 3rd owner of this little bike, I learnt with it, slept outside during its first winter with me, and after putting 15000 on that bike I guess its time for a oil change, carb cleaning and little maintenance. Such a bulletproof engine.

[@analdevastator3451]

eatmydirtninja what language you used to communicate with the locals? I know only English so I don't know it will make it 😅

[@analdevastator3451]

mister what tires You used for ride in the city and asphalt road?

[@eatmydirtninja]

Not sure TBH, I think the one bike had TKC80s front and back. Don't worry too much about your tires, anything mildly knobbly will do.

[@analdevastator3451]

eatmydirtninja thank You 😊
