“Giv’em a little bip” Righto! I’d rather light my hair on fire than take my chances driving in some places but that was pretty cool nonetheless. Thanks for sharing this instructional video!

[@mallearoundtheworld6932]

Great video! Ive always wondered how to drive a tuktuk :)

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

[@Corkoth55]

[@Valent_Nomad_vlog]

Nice! I had tuk-tuks, or tukxis, in Thailand, Cambodia, Philippines, and even Spain, but Sri Lanka not yet … 😀 Have fun guys! 😀😀

[@kasunsathsara5306]

[@zankfrappawdeezil5566]

ok i am sitting down at home watching this early in the morning, we're leaving Cork (ireland) today in t afternoon, change plane in Heathrow and then straight to Colombo! thanks for the tutorial; we've rented a (self drive of course) tuktuk for our entire 3 week stay! thanks, can't wait now, hint of trepidation but that makes it more fun!!

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

Hey guys thanks for coming over and watching 😊 glad it could help.. You guys will LOVE Sri Lanka it's honestly. so beautiful and because you have your own tuk. tuk. you will really be amongst it with the wildlife, locals, the beaches there so much to do there 😁.. if you need any Inspiration on what to do etc check out our Sri Lanka series, it was our 2nd destination so editing is a bit rough but it will give you a good insight what to look out for (b35 Road elephants), 😂

Thansk bro

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

no worries, glad you enjoyed the video

[@talham709]

I have to fix 2-4 off these some time soon for someone 😅

[@tutionclassessrilanka3097]

Struggling to get to 2 gear , ends up in N or 3rd , any tips ? Thank you

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

there's a fine line between N and 2nd, best thing to do we found was start the engine keep the clutch in and while sitting still just get used to flicking up and down the gears, then find a quiet road to practise on.. it took us at least a week to nail the gear changes... fingers crossed for you 😊

[@nevienmalubay3173]

Just got a Bajaj RE Tuktuk and l’m having the same struggle on gear switching. Thanks for this tip! And great content!!!

Good

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

thank you for the comment

[@Short_alex4808]

Does it stall the tuk-tuk if you let go of the clutch fast

[@TravellingonaShoestringAJ]

Hey Alex yeah you can stall it if you release the clutch too quick or if there isn't enough revs, ideally you wanna find the biting point nice n easy, then release slowly as you increase revs, should prevent stalling, are you off to Sri Lanka soon?

[@Short_alex4808]

@@TravellingonaShoestringAJ no I would like to go but thanks for the info 👍
