Just wanted to say "Thank you" to all the KZbin visitors - this is a new format for me and I'm slowly getting acquainted so I appreciate all the support and patience as I embark on a new journey :)

[@ClassicRides]

Good to see you getting rewarded with some nice weather for braving our terrible climate 👍🏻

[@mattyoung4936]

Love your short format stuff! Can't wait to see what you do with this channel.

[@ChrisKonings]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate you coming over here and joining me on another format 😊✌️

[@user-jy3io4iz2p]

Brittany/Normandy are beautiful. Done some camping there. That Kawa W800 is one of the most beautiful looking bikes around. Nice video 😊

[@ChrisKonings]

I’d love to head that way some day as well - thanks, it was a great bike to ride 😊✌️

[@jkmayhem]

Looking forward to my trip this summer. Going from Norway to Denmark, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Slovenia and end up in Croatia. Stay 8-9 days. Then back home. Cant wait to get on that open road and forget all the work buzz and the daily stresses that is.

Greetings from Far East Seoul! Enjoyed watching, reminds me of the cycling travel back in 2015 (London to Paris via Le Havre Ferry) and CYcling adventure in 2019 (Marseille - Nice Cote d'azur area - and to Italy San Remo). Big cities have old remains and modern section, but country side of France were just so peaceful and fun for cyclist/hiker now biker like me. Would like to give it a try for bike ride in France if I have Chance in Future. Always enjoying your video from Instagram and KZbin as well. :) As always, safe ride and best wishes to you.

[@ChrisKonings]

Hello there 👋 - that sounds like an awesome trip, I'd love to go back during the height of summer when the weather might be a bit better, so many more roads to explore! Thanks for your kind words and support, I really appreciate it!

[@OVS_13]

Nice trip😎 Beautiful places and mesmerizing atmosphere!)

[@ChrisKonings]

Thank you, it was a fun ride, definitely would go back 😊👍

[@juIiaaa.]

That's the beauty of Europe, you can always find little spots that make you feel as if you are somewhere exotic, great video!

[@ChrisKonings]

Totally agree, the number of back roads and twists we found along the way - what a delight!

[@vernc427]

Loved it.

[@ChrisKonings]

Thank you so much - I’m glad to hear that 😊✌️

[@ragarse3]

Nice job. La belle Francais and the classy W Kwaka takes some beating. Not having a boring commentary and just enough info adds to the charm. Can't wait until September for my go!

[@ChrisKonings]

I'm glad you liked it, thanks for the kind words and support - enjoy your September trip!

[@ChrisKonings]

It’s so unique 😊✌️

[@ElbinBiju-df1so]

Can we get a full review of your interceptor 650 . Each and every detail about it . I need one so

[@csyoon7948]

그림 같은 유럽의 풍경과 길. 영상 잘 봤습니다. 저도 한국에서 W800을 보유하고 있습니다.

[@ChrisKonings]

Thank you for sharing that, so cool to see a comment from Korea. I love this bike too!

[@Chris64France]

On dirait que vous avez vu de belles choses en France ;-) Merci de ce partage!

[@ChrisKonings]

It's easy to find beautiful places in France, thanks for dropping by :)

[@user-jv5dj9hx1p]

以前w650に乗っていました。 こういう旅がしたかった‥ 最高の旅動画ですね♪

[@ChrisKonings]

Thank you, I really appreciate it, it’s a nice motorcycle 😊

[@mohaa.mohammad_]

Nice bro

[@ChrisKonings]

Thanks 😊✌️

[@BFPOV]

Nice! The Kawa was a Model i thought about too. But now it’s a blue Bonnie t100 🥰 great you try KZbin too!

[@ChrisKonings]

Yeah it’s a great machine, I have an INT650 usually and this is a really characterful engine as well - I feel like th T100 would have great character as well - thanks for dropping by and supporting 😊✌️

[@Fgvmoto]

Looks Good Chris, you should start talking, I think it would be much better :) . Cheers !

[@ChrisKonings]

Thanks, I'm working my way towards talking - just trying to find my voice :P

[@BustaMayne]

i really like your video colour filters, what camera do you use and what are your go to settings?

[@-misha]

while we dream, he lives this life

[@ChrisKonings]

I know the feeling, I've been chasing my dreams for a very long time, and in some ways I still am - keep chasing them, they make life worthwhile

[@-misha]

@@ChrisKonings You inspired me a lot, a month ago I started studying for my license, I already want to buy a motorcycle in the summer, thanks for the inspiration❤️

[@Bloodborne666]

Hello. I am going to buy this moto , but I am not sure.. Is it comfortable for second number for a long travel? How often did you use a fuel station? Every 150 km ,? 200 or 300 ? Thanks

[@Fgvmoto]

What mount do you use for the GoPro? I looks like a removable mount? I mean something that you don't have to glue it on, or am i wrong?

[@ChrisKonings]

That's right, it clips on :)

[@ChrisKonings]

Bonjour 👋

[@Alex-ym2sg]

What gloves are those where could I get them? :-)

[@ChrisKonings]

They’re custom, I’m releasing them on my website for purchase soon 😊✌️

[@Jeroto]

Wouldn't your Int 650 be suitable for this trip, or do you think it lacks sufficient power?

[@ChrisKonings]

It would be, I just happen to have a motorcycle in England that’s easier to ride to France 😊

[@threewishes777]

Saw this IG

[@ChrisKonings]

Thanks for dropping by 😊✌️

[@bartek3228]

what height are you, is this motorcycle comfortable for you for such long journeys?

[@ChrisKonings]

I’m around 180, I think so, it is for me anyway 😊✌️
