Glad you find some of the nicest pass roads of Switzerland. Your vids are so freaking enjoyable to watch, although i know these roads in my country well. However, i bet the bread will be unforgettable as well ;-) next time try to get some famous Swiss cheese on it, or Swiss chocolate. As i can see you got at least some Toblerone back home. Not the worst thing to carry home from Switzerland ;-)

What perfect timing, I'm in England and have just started seeing and english girl who lives in Switzerland, I also have a red AT so shes invited me to go over whenever i want but what's the best time of year and do you need to buy any passes like road tariffs etc. I'd be on my own so probable ride there through the tunnel but I've never done it before so have no clue. Never even ridden on that side of the road. From the Midlands is it a one day trip or would you split it into two?

Hi, you need a vignette to ride on motorways in Switzerland - At the border you can buy one, stick it on your bike screen and off you go. You do not need one if you avoid motorways, but it's the easiest way in to the country. We went in late June, the passes open about early June so by early July its great weather!! Stay away from August at all costs, too busy and roads are mobbed. Take plenty of money! Switzerland is expensive! Its about 600 miles from Amsterdam to the passes, break this up or you'll be brain dead riding 600 miles of motorways! Have fun, and enjoy - ride all the passes BOTH ways for the best experience :D Cheers!

Have revisited this video as it’s one of my favourites. Still can’t believe you find riding a motorbike around Holland boring. You must have done it very differently to the way we did it in 1993! I can’t remember most of it but have been assured I had a good time! You should check out the latest release from “Tins on Tour” to find out how to do Amsterdam on an Africa Twin properly! 😎

I was never really happy with that comment, as I didn’t have enough time to explain…. We are always short of time on our bike adventures. So to get some well needed miles in, we tend blast down the motorways to get further south ASAP. This inevitably means we never explore Holland / Belgium at all. We’re usually limited to 9/10 days and two of those are taken up by the return ferry, so only having an actual week riding, we push hard for the first day or so. Its a bit like Euro bikers coming to Northumberland via North Shields ferry terminal; they jump on the A1 to get to Scotland ASAP, missing out on some fantastic roads and scenery. We’re just as guilty! Thanks for watching, pleased you enjoy the vids :D

Nice riding, I love the Alps and if I go, I prefer to stay in Austria, Switzerland is sooo expensive. It's not worth it. For the last two years, I have been going to the Pyrenees. Love it more and especially the Spanish side, great(er) food, great roads and if you stay in Andorra you fill up your bike, virtually for free. The Alps is more beautiful but try it, you will love it.

You are unfortunatly 100 % right. I live in Geneva and avoid riding in Switzerland has much as possible. The fines goes up to 10 % of yearly income plus the bike is stolen by the authorities you can have up to 5 years in jail (a murder can be as less as 8 years, go figure). I ride in France, Italy and other countries but its a shame with such nice places to travel in Swizerland but I cannot unless I change bikes KTM superadventure and superduke need slower bike !

I thought given the bikes this video would be off road riding. There are plenty of off road tracks in the Alps but these guys didn't ride any of them. Could have ridden most of this route on a sports bike.

Yes there are many offroad tracks in the alps, but in Switzerland they are mostly illegal to ride unless you happen to own one of these mountain huts. For offroad riding you would have to go to the french/italian alps e.g. Bardoneccia/Oulx

In these situations, it's difficult to choose as both were great, but I'd go for the Honda with it's stronger wire wheels and it is more off-road focused. If you're staying on tarmac, the KTM. Cheers :D
