she is so pretty, please make another video with her...

[@stufoo]

that girl was a looker

[@VietnamEli]

Yes, she was!

[@kevinluu2003]

good pronunciation on the numbers Eli. I'm Vietnamese so I can attest your pronunciation is really good

[@VietnamEli]

Thanks Kevin! I always tell people the numbers are the first thing they should learn because they are easy and you use them every day. I don’t speak much Vietnamese but just knowing the numbers and a few words helps a lot!

[@socalbeauty1516]

She's a cutie. 90% vietnamese babes are thin and cute. Im a viet living in the US and i prefer women from VN.

[@VietnamEli]

Yep, she’s a good looking girl. They often choose the pretty ones for sales/retail positions.

[@vintagemotor7451]

Beautiful Vietnamese Woman

[@vanphan9318]

beautiful girl 👍

[@VietnamEli]

Yep. I haven't seen her since I shot this video, unfortunately.

[@vanphan9318]

@@VietnamEli 🤣 I'm just kidding you

[@VietnamEli]

Haha, she is though!

[@oliversridingtv]

Hi~ Nice video !! Can you make more videos like this by visiting other shops too? wondering how much the classic Vespas are in Vietnam ^^ Thanks!!

[@VietnamEli]

Yes, I can make a video about classic Vespas. Stay tuned. 👍

[@jerryle379]

Real classic Vespas are expensive even back in the day 2000s 😂 i know cause my uncle own one and even back in those day they are expensive ; with the current income it must be crazy high ; seeing how some folk willing to pay hundred of thousand dollar for a fk tree

[@AmbientWanderer]

Two things I liked about this video If that KTM is only 80 million (104,000THB) then that is an amazing price for that bike!

[@VietnamEli]

I think I can guess what those two things are. 😂 The price looks correct. See here: www.ktmsapa.vn/dong-xe/ktm-200-duke-477.html

[@williey7663]

She don’t understand u r hitting on her .... she’s gorgeous

[@VietnamEli]

Not really hitting on her, people aren’t shy in Vietnam and ask a lot of personal questions. It’s not like the west, I get women asking me if I have a wife all the time. But, yeah, she’s a beautiful girl.

[@Emilmarch]

Pretty but not gorgeous.

[@TherealQ2]

That KTM is a bargain if she said the right price... Would the 175cc and over bikes be less popular?

[@TherealQ2]

$1600AUD for the little scooter. Dollar has strengthened a bit against the VND Better than 16000 at the moment, was over 20000 a few years back

[@VietnamEli]

@Timmy Twatcop Looks like she’s right. See here: www.ktmsapa.vn/dong-xe/ktm-200-duke-477.html (I said it was a 300 in the video, but I misread it. It was a 200).

[@VietnamEli]

@ThrealQ2. Far fewer people have A2 licenses, so I supposed bigger bikes are less popular, but bigger bikes are usually more expensive. The price looks correct, however.

[@TherealQ2]

@@VietnamEli They take up a lot more room so parking them up would be a hassle i reckon. Better for touring on, but commuting locally, too cumbersome

[@TherealQ2]

The 150cc with the panniers for 84 million looked ok too

[@IceBreaker1]

Loved this, thanks.

[@VietnamEli]

No problem!

[@MrTrangen1]

no license; you would say "khong cung bang lai" aka "don't need license" License = bang lai (pronounced Bang Lie with Long I)

[@vanphan9318]

I think some motorbikes are joint ventures, domestically produced in Vietnam, not all are produced in Thailand.

[@VietnamEli]

Yes, I think some are made here, but this shop sells unusual bikes, and I think they import them from other ASEAN countries.

[@MrTrangen1]

80000000 VND = $3451.31 USD

[@motto666]

She is more interesting than all the bikes combined. Wait a minute, don't they have big bikes, I mean 1000cc bikes?

[@VietnamEli]

Without rewatching the video, I doubt they have liter bikes. Those are usually sold (new) by brand specialists, like Ducati, HD, Kawasaki, etc. This is more of a general public type shop with more affordable machines.

[@motto666]

@@VietnamEli OK, you should get her number, she is nice.

[@VietnamEli]

Well, I'm married, so that would get me in trouble. 🤣

[@motto666]

@@VietnamEli Are you vietnamese? Are you staying or touring in Vietnam? How much fine you need to pay if speeding? I just saw a video 3 foreigners caught speeding 79km/hr at the speed limit of 50, and each pay $35 usd, so it is USD $105 for the 3, Is it too much. In Thailand, I just pay $3.5 USD. speeding at 180km/hr.

[@TherealQ2]

Liked it before I even watched it...

[@TherealQ2]

Hopefully by the time I retire, long term stays will be easier for Aussies.

[@VietnamEli]

Just find yourself a nice little Viet lady to marry and all your problems will be solved. 😉

[@TherealQ2]

@@VietnamEli Or I get myself a bunch of new ones :)

[@TherealQ2]

Been married once, not a fan. Maybe in time

[@MrTrangen1]

you would say, "toy kung bang lai khong" translated I need license, no?"

[@MrTrangen1]

it's more like don't I need a license?

[@IceBreaker1]

The dealer is what we call in the USA a multi-line dealer. Almost like a broker in the investment world where he can sell you anything. Usually , in the States, these guys have the best prices and are on the edge of the knowledge of the business. Good stuff.

[@VietnamEli]

Yeah, I bought a bike from a dealer like that back in the US, but here in Vietnam, they’re not so common. Usually it’s a Honda store, a Yamaha store, a Suzuki store, etc.

[@DadsAmazingAdventures]

Nice Walk and Talk Eli. :)

[@Jeff-cz3pj]

In taiwan there are more and more electric bikes. The gogoro electric in Taiwan rocks, looking forward to seeing it in vietnam

[@VietnamEli]

Yeah, I’m looking forward to seeing Gogoro too.

[@clintonbeckway4171]

OMG, You can have the bike , I want the girl she is beautiful, wow she looks soo cute and charming, whats her name and is she single????

[@bretthoussenloge8744]

cheap duke...

[@VietnamEli]

Yep. Made in India, I believe.

80,000,000 V Dong is $3440.00 usd:) which is pretty cheap, yes.

[@goutvols103]

Enough about the bikes and more about her.

[@VietnamEli]

I know right? She’s very good looking.

[@goutvols103]

Eli the Bike Guy did you at least buy something from her?

[@vintagemotor7451]

Do day shipping Motorcycle to Philippines

[@hungha42]

Em xinh gái quá

[@vintagemotor7451]

How is the process of registration

[@MrTrangen1]

100,000,000.00 VND = 4,311.76 USD

[@primepreowned1]

There trying to sell the Honda Cub here in the USA for $3,650. I think that’s about the same price as in VN. Nice video Eli, I enjoy your work!!

[@VietnamEli]

Yep, just about the same price. Too expensive for what it is, in my opinion. I’d rather have that KTM Duke 200 for less.

[@blessedgrateful-d-j-trumpt9051]

convenient= they should have the price tag for each of them, where it made, which year is made, how is power of each one!

[@VietnamEli]

But then you wouldn’t need a pretty girl to help you. :)

[@tvong81]

that honda grom gets 120 miles per gallon.

[@VietnamEli]

I hope they bring the Dax to Vietnam -- if they do, I will buy one and make a video!

[@jbuzzy]

I saw a Suzuki Raider hiding in the corner, sweet little bike. Jon

[@VietnamEli]

Yeah, those are great bikes. If I was 20 years younger, I’d probably get one.

[@keiscott2953]

Well very good motorcycles not just another scooter shop and I was about to give you shit because it looked like scooters only haha cool I'll have a look

[@VietnamEli]

Would I let you down bro? ;)

[@VietnamEli]

By the way, they call themselves a motorcycle shop, so I did too.

[@viet5929]

Nice nose structure.

[@VietnamEli]

Very pretty.

[@ucbuii1371]

Em đến đây ... you come here 😁

[@VietnamEli]

I'd much rather have a Super Cub 125 😉

[@10000words1]

Do they sell the Honda Rebel in Vietnam?

[@10000words1]

Related question: is it extremely cost-prohibitive to import a motorcycle from overseas for your personal use?

[@VietnamEli]

The Rebel 300 is available, and not too expensive (for a larger bike): www.honda.com.vn/xe-may/san-pham/rebel-300 It's very expensive to import a bike, and a lot of hassle, not only getting it through customs but then getting it registered. If it's not officially sold here, it's a bad idea.

[@Jordy120]

Are there 'cc' size limits in Vietnam?

[@VietnamEli]

As far as licensing, no. An A2 license is good for >175cc, but doesn’t set a maximum. I’m not sure if there’s an import or sales restriction though.

[@Jordy120]

@@VietnamEli ok. Cheers for that.

[@WakingTheDemon04]

Do you know anywhere to rent a Y. Exciter or H. Winner/price?

[@vintagemotor7451]

Beautiful Vietnamese Woman

[@AustinPetDetective]

I dont have $85.000.000 to buy one ?

[@VietnamEli]

Do you have $3700?

[@gumonthepants]

Will my US motorcycle license be sufficient for the bikes over 50cc?

[@VietnamEli]

Yes, but you need to convert it to a Vietnamese license, which is a simple process. Just get it translated, then fill out a form, pay 135,000 VND. One week later you get a Vietnamese license.
