Motorcycle Adventures I will say that the best bikes for tavel are the one that never brake down on you.. and europeen bikes do not have the statistics on their side l belive. Bing a tent if you go to Norway...hotells are extreem expensive during the summer time..and dont shop on gas stations... Good video again..thanks

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks Toby! I know the prices in Norway. I was there in 2014 - crazy...

[@bebekadventure]

all you said is correct and true mate. its very rationable and good thinking. This is why I like you alot as sources to get to know something . Guru !

Eduard Durik great bit of advice!!

[@edodurik]

thanks, I like it as well...and the saying has got really "something".. :-)

[@eberbacher007]

Basic rule about tents from a German perspective. If you ride north,west or south, take a tent with you. If you travel east, leave the tents at home, because you can usually find hotel for 15-20€s a night. When campgrounds are 6-10€s, even in Poland and cheap hotels are 15-25€s, the price difference is just negligible. In contrast if you are in France in the summer and hotels cost 70-120€s, a campground for 10€s is a much more sensible option if you don´t have unlimited money

[@motorcycleadventures]

Very true. Thanks for adding!

[@AndrewBrowner]

campground.... drive 100ft into the woods and setup for free

[@TC-yx1qt]

Disagree. Always take the tent too many amazing places east to camp in a tent .

[@Knakkerman-]

@@AndrewBrowner This is not allowed in every European country or area sadly...

[@AndrewBrowner]

@@Knakkerman- they have police walking every square foot of wooded area's every evening? i have no problem breaking silly laws like this.. we as a species used to exclusively live in the woods in basically tents and shacks living off the land hunter gatherer bla bla bla.. now its illegal to even spend a night in a tent in government owned wooded area's? absurd.. what possible reason can they give "oh its for your safety" no ones asking for it to be safe or anyone to be responsible for you.. were all big boys and responsible for our own decisions and circumstances...

[@maxvb9764]

Really usefull tips, Pavlin. And something to consider is the fact that being about 15€ the price of some campings, 30€ the price of some hotels/hostels, and about 100€ the minimum camping equipment...you can sleep very comfortable in hostels/hotels and without carryin a lot of camping luggaje a lot of days with the same money. And I assure you that trying to mount a tent in the rain is a really upsetting thing. I discovered ferrys and are a great way to reach places for cheap. You save a lot of time, petrol, food and bed. Remember always to take some food to the ferry. Food can ve really expensive there! Keep on the good work, Pavlin!

[@motorcycleadventures]

When I travel I sue the tent in very rare. Usually I am able to find cheap hotels or hostels, but it is good to have it as alternative.

[@fatpigeonadventurerider2118]

I’ll be doing my big trip to Mongolia on a Yamaha XT660R, purely as it was cheap and I know it is a reliable engine. The colour is black and looks nothing in a crowd. Truth be known I’d love a better bike but I feel it’s a good option. I have spent a few £’s on it, but I’ll sell all the none standard stuff when I return. I think your videos are absolutely brilliant, which I feel are fair and true. You seem to give advice that’s for all not just the BMW loads of money brigade. Thanks

[@andrei93ro]

Your videos always prove me that I did the best choice buying my Suzuki GN125. In my opinion, it's one of the most affordable, reliable and light bikes if you don't mind riding an 125cc.

by the way I'm not sure if you already know but wild camping is legal and free in Scotland.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks Karl! Keep riding!

[@teneretraveller8980]

If you can avoid toll roads do so. Not much adventure or interest to be found on them. As well as the money saving. Eat in non tourist areas in cities, not where the rest of tourists do. Buy half pints not full pints of beer, but make sure you have a well deserved one at the end of the day. Happy travels

[@motorcycleadventures]

Valid points, thanks for adding Richard!

[@DarkAristocrat]

I agree, foods on tourist areas are so expensive. They think of tourists as rich people, well, not all tourists are.

[@sm-ov1wh]

Such true words !! Well done on the advice 😊 I travel alone and the freedom i feel is the best .... love your blogs keep them rolling in 😉

[@alexanderbazhanov1806]

the last advice is the best, whatever happens it's just a part of adventure I'm traveling with a hammock, even better experience

[@Freeyourhate1]

I like most of your videos, I agree on most of what you say, although I already knew it all due to my long trips lived experience on the roads alone since I was 20 years old. I admire the fact that you're honest and that you like to share your road riding experience and whatever it may concern but especially the down to earth humor that comes with it, you remind me a good old friend of mine from Bulgaria whose name is Niko, I wonder where the heck he is right now.. On the other hand, I can't say the same for your motorcycles reviews though, since saying..It's great and nice doesn't do justice to the in depth technical aspect of a Motorcycle.. I have been riding any sorts of motorcycles ( I mean any sort of motorcycles ! ) And scooters as from the age of 14 regardless of the weather. Unfortunately, I can't share any of it since I seem to be destined to ride always alone, I must emphasize that I don't like to ride with a group of bikers ..I'm fine to travel alone also because if you wait for others to join you, you may hardly ever reach your goals in life. Don't think about it too much, just do it! Get out there and discover your inner self immersed in the nature and the elements, everything is alive and interconnected so whenever you feel scared, stop the bike and become acquainted with the surrounding nature and even talk to it and to yourself, sleep outdoors get that courage back and carry on son ! As an endurance solo rider, yes ' Solo ' rider because it's also difficult to find a good mate to ride with due to the time and the money that a long motorcycle trip involves, depending on your destination naturally. I would strongly suggest to keep yourself light, fit and fast ( My cruising speed has always been within the region of 140 to 160 kph where allowed as it can get boring at much lower speed especially on your own) If you're on a budget, avoid motorways ( if you can..) Avoid expensive ferries, I personally don't see the need to go to any European northern rainy and depressing countries, apart from this stop by a local market instead of a wasting your time and money in a Supermarket.. Hence, try no to eat too much and especially no dead meats of any kinds which will only harm your body, no salty foods and definitely no sugary drinks, like fruit juices or whatever drink that may contain excessive sugar or salt, eat real fruits instead and bring along with you any kind of nuts and dried fruits, no alcohol and NO DRUGS ever ! Most importantly, get to know your motorcycle, learn how to fix it yourself, learn to speak at least 3 or more languages including English naturally ! Learn to do minor repairs at least as far as the exterior of the bike is concerned, like replacing the oil, filter and or repairing a flat tire or else then be a good observant, be vigilant and always alert..! Take your due rest time and do it all over again tomorrow :) I hope I can be out there again soon, in the meantime, I can only wish you guys happy trails !

[@robpinter5431]

Pavlin, I have been thinking of you wanting to replace your motor, If your current motor has no problems but has a lot of milage, just keep riding it and monitor the oil quality, you can send a sample of the oil away and get it tested for any engine issues, if the gearbox is changing OK then why replace the motor? Buy a good 2nd hand one and keep it as a spare at home, if you need it on a trip get one of your mates to ship it to you, then change it. There tenere motor is over engineered and under powered for a 660, thus it should last much linger than 130,000km, I have seen the way you ride, and you never rev the engine hard. Just to remember to check the hub drive sprocket bearings as they get a hard time, and change the oil and filters more often than the 10,000km service interval. With the fuel injection buy a new injector or get the old one cleaned, EFI systems are very reliable now days. Check your throttle cables too see if they are still in good condition.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks Rob, I am aware of all of this. I am just talking about my future plans, but I am sure that the engine will last many more km.

[@clakoclakson]

Not only your video is very good, but it has brought a lot of interesting comments down here. Thank you!

Wow...thanks!

[@DarkAristocrat]

I love your views. I have a 220cc motorcycle but it is very reliable. The spare parts are quite rare but I do know somebody who sells them, so I buy all spare parts and store them at home. Also, I agree with planning ahead. I planned my first ever long ride (12-hour ride) for 4 months. I got my bike and myself ready for it.

[@motorcycleadventures]

If your coming back to eastern England on your trip, make sure you ride the Yorkshire dales (butter tub pass) plus the Yorkshire moors. You'll have to trust me it's stunning roads. Some fantastic advice as usual.

[@motorcycleadventures]

I might change my route a bit and ride there...thanks!

[@dexio85]

Overthinking and overplanning the trip is also a bad idea - you can't predict everything that may happen along the way both bad (breakages, road closures, health issues) and good (finding about something awesome to see, getting hosted by a very nice people that you want to hang around more etc). I did this mistake once on my first trip that I overplanned, booked all hotels/motels in advance had everything written down to the last mile. Then all it took was a single day of stomach issues and my plan was ruined. Instead of planning I would suggest RESEARCHING - read about the place you are going to, what's nice to see there, what should be avoided, etc this way you will be more prepared for changes. Also, I would suggest asking around for CONTACTS - knowing some people in the place you are going to can be priceless and can help you solve a lot of issues. Ride safe!

[@motorcycleadventures]

Agree about over planing, but without plan you will reach nowhere.

[@nipponsensei]

Planned to travel by my bike to Hungary. Even I was born in Germany and live in Romania as a Turkish citizen heard that need visa for Schengen countries. So I went to Hungary embassy. Impossible that I can get visa. They asked for all countries that I will travel real hotel reservation and last 3 months salary transaction bank account. I don't have those because I quit job. So the biggest issue is unfortunately visa. Thank you for all your cool advises. I wish one day we will meet somewhere on the road Pavel.

[@momobadilak]

I love these advice videos -- I'll watch them all no matter how much you repeat some of the advice from previous videos - there's always good nuggets in there. I like the advice here about tires - on my recent trip to Death Valley California ~2300 miles - I didn't check my tire pressure until about half way and my rear tire is now severely cupped (!) -- what a dumb mistake. Also, I learned from the trip that taking hard bags onto gravel roads is a no-no -- if you fall (like I did, at a low speed) they can break easily, for example the latch!. thankfully I brought a full role of duck tape. Speaking about long trips and off road - would love to hear more advice and stories about riding off-pavement on this channel - not extreme riding - just gravel, sand, forest roads and what experience you had and how you prepared for the next off-road adventure. cheers!

[@motorcycleadventures]

I am glad that you found the channel useful, this was the original idea. You learned a lot of things the hard way, but... Nice video idea. I will make it when I get back.

[@michaelksiezopolski]

I love long trips, expensive bikes are out of my reach, yet I found long motorcycle trips affordable. First contact with different people around the world, different cultures and beautiful views that you can enjoy are far more better than airplane trips. Bike can go where cars cannot so that is a bonus as well. Bike do not have to be new or expensive, it must be luxury for the rider and in great (sound) mechanical condition of the bike. I am running old Yamaha XJ600S Diversion and I am happy with this bike. It is modified to suit my needs but is also reliable, cheap and easy to maintain.

[@motorcycleadventures]

True. The bike is just a tool...

[@mototroter]

You are right. In one moment I wondered what is the sense to travel buying food in supermarkets instead eating local food what is also very important attraction. On the other side when you do not have money it is always better to buy food in supermarket and travel than to stay at home due to lack of money for trip. And this is movie "How to travel cheap", not "How to fully enjoy the trip".

[@motorcycleadventures]

Correct, the video is how to travel as cheap as possible.

Can I add a few tips? :) 1. Cheap motorcycle = cheap maintenance, 1200 BMW and VersysX 300 are both adventure, both capable of traveling all day long, but the VersysX 300 will cost you 1/4th in everything of that of the 1200 BMW. (and yes its just as fun). 2. Being an adventure rider is all about the adventure, if you are too scared of adventure, don't do it then, get a cheap flight and a nice hotel instead. Going on a motorcycle tour is not for everyone, in fact most people wont enjoy it at all, ask yourself: Can you eat cold canned food? Can you drink hot water during a hot day? Can you sleep in an unknown and scary area like dark forests? Can you survive for 20 or 30 days without a shower? Can you survive wearing the same underwear for 2 weeks? If its all about YES, then you can enjoy the adventurer life, if not, every "NO" on the least = more money! 3. Before adventuring to an unknow country or cross continents, do some adventuring in YOUR country, you will be amazed how many places you never knew about just because there is no asphalt road leading to them and there is no hotel next to them. Sleep under the clear sky, eat whatever there is in your backpack, and mostly just enjoy the ride, do that for a week or so, my guess that after a week you will know if that is for you or not, and some other cool things, like that your motorcycle seat is the destroyer of butts, the nemesis of the spine, the angle of death himself have fun :D

[@motorcycleadventures]

I have seen a few videos advising a hammock for lightweight and cheap travel. Knowing how you like travelling light, have you ever considered hammocks if you are going through countries with trees? Not deserts, or plains, of course.

I don't think that the hammock will be good option. It is like an addition to the existing camping gear.

[@nikitasobolev7759]

@@motorcycleadventures I think it will be an interesting experiment for me in spring, when I start going somewhere more local, maybe not even overnight, but just to have a look at what it's like. I've heard a lot of good things about comfort and weight, but it's practicality does raise a few questions.

[@eliinthewolverinestate6729]

Price of up keep on bike and availability of parts too. Cheap lodging for environment. Yes lighter the better less stuff less time wasted. I love roadside markets and roach coaches. Put good tires on so you don't need to carry them. Take the road less traveled. Ask about road conditions ahead. In case of bridges or roads being impassable or bug migrations.

Hi there, I will be buying a next motorcycle for myself and since I think about having it as the "bike until I am alive or it breaks" I am thinking about something around 5 000 euro (10 000lev). I don't know if I'll be able to start following my desires and start travelling like you do for example, but I really want to buy the closest to a new bike as possible, without paying the ridiculous overpricing of the manufacturer, so I would have to fix the least amount of breaks if I ever decide to go on a long trip. In that sense, I have two bikes on my sight. The one is Triumph Tiger 800XC (there is one in good condition) and the other one is BMW F800. In those terms, I need to ask you what is your opinion on the BMW F800GS ? As general I am not looking for a heavy motorcycle, because up to until recently I've been riding mainly motocross/enduro in the forests and now I have a BMW F650 (1998) which I don't like very much, and because of which I know that I don't wan't a single cylinder adventure motorcycle ever again. Just FYI, my most favorite bike is the Honda CRF1000 Africa Twin.

I want to travel from Austria to Albania this summer. As you did a similar trip lately - how high is the chance that someone will steal the bike there? I own a sv650 (2017). Is it necessary to use paid parking? Thanks for all the hints! They will be helpful in summer ;)

Wieder ein super informatives Video :3 Hoffe nächstes Jahr meine erste lange Tour in Angriff zu nehmen.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks man! Good luck on your trip!

[@BobLenderman]

Excellent tips as always! In hindsight I should have planned ahead better on my first long trip (about 4000km) instead of riding all day till near sunset then finding a place to stay.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks Bob!

[@Milo-Mike]

Did you make it?😅

[@BobLenderman]

@@Milo-Mike with minimal injuries to the bike and myself 😁

Listening to your UK route it sounds like you will be catching the north sea ferry from Hull, its a pity I am away in Bulgaria as I am only near Leeds and would have liked to meet up and buy you a drink and have a chat. Maybe another time.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Yes John, I will catch the ferry from Hull. See you next time!

How is it with camping in Germany and France? It seems like there are not many places to do wild camping and the parks and private paid campgrounds can be more expensive than hostels or budget Airbnb rooms.

[@motorcycleadventures]

No free camping in France and Germany. The camping usually cost about 15-20 euro per night.

[@JavierLobo]

[@irishrover63]

Just back from Ireland, so when will you be in Scotland? Where do you intend to visit in Scotland?

[@motorcycleadventures]

I expect to be in Scotland around 20th June. I cannot tell you exactly the dates now.

[@Primiguys]

Hi, good advice, as usual from you. Can you tell me the brand-model of the front tire? Thanks

[@motorcycleadventures]

It is Continental TKC 80.

[@Primiguys]

I like it . It seems to have good knobs without being too agressive.

[@michag738]

Next video - next very good job, Pavlin. Thanks.

[@motorcycleadventures]

You are always awesome with your videos

[@motorcycleadventures]

Thanks!

[@leon1536]

Shame you're going to avoid riding through England, you'll miss some beautiful countryside like the Lake district and Yorkshire dales. Hope you enjoy your trip though

[@motorcycleadventures]

I know, but I cannot have everything at the same time. I will do it next year.

[@zappa916]

You left out the most important tip. How to fund your journey such as Make KZbin videos.

[@motorcycleadventures]

Good luck with this!
