Suzuki VanVan 200 vs. Ducati Multistrada 1200 Enduro Rags to Riches! | On Two Wheels

When Zack pulled that knife out, I thought "That's exactly what I need for my ride into London".

He'll say it's “part and parcel of living in a big city” ;)

I'm nervous when I ride into London and I'd be worrying about my bike every night if I had to park it in the city.

I have the VanVan 200. I have terrible coccyx tailbone pain. I thought I’d never be able to ride again. The seat of the Vanvan is so comfortable, I’m back to riding! 🙂

Without a doubt, the best motorcycle show on TV, internet, or otherwise. An honorable mention to 44 Teeth.

@@evgenygolovlev9579 yes.

[@adamdowns3075]

I’ve been wondering if anyone commutes on it. I’m looking at the vanvan because I have a short commute on city roads, and also being able to ride some trails is a plus. Wanted to know if you’ve modded it at all or made any gearing changes, etc.

[@MagicRoosterBluesBand]

@@adamdowns3075 yes, I changed the rear sprocket to 42 from the original 46 so i can go 60mph without over revving the engine. Put a small windscreen to cut through the wind at higher speeds. Put a rear rack. For city commuting it's perfectly fine stock.

Yamaha TW200 great option too

Awwwww Zack brought a second chair for Ari, that's the cutest thing ever, bromance on!

[@mr.carguy654]

I prefer the van van! The multistrada is too big, heavy and technical! And fitting advanced electronics to an Italian bike is dangerous. So many things can go wrong!

[@jeremyclarkson-69]

Italians are the reason the phrase "the less there is ,the less can go wrong" isn't accurate a lot of old simple Italian cars and bikes are not reliable at all,as I grew older I realized reliability is more related to good engineering and design language

The "little guy" (#6) 2019 VanVan is absolutely a favorite!

I have the Suzuki Van Van and it's so much fun! Everyone loves it and i get a lot of comments whenever i stop 😅 You can bring an one person tent and have a nice camping experience instead of just the tarp. It's the best for mud and sand, with the big tyres and no weight. And you won't find a nicer seat, if you love slow rides enjoying the views, it's the best 😊

What kind of bike is it? The last street legal dual sport bike that was sold here in the US that I'm aware of was the Kawasaki ke100 two stroke. Great little bike and fast for its size. I know that there are many options in that size in Asia and Europe so very curious to know what you are riding.

[@ashwinprakas606]

@@dylanmacaya9166 Sorry, I missed your comment. I ride a Bajaj CT100B in India. It's 4 Speed and the cylinder configuration is similar to the Honda XR100, though it was Kawasaki that brought this engine to Indian in the form of the Kawasaki 4S Champion back in 1994 IIRC. Kawasaki and Bajaj used to work together until recently.

Wow, excellent video! Although I am not a huge fan of big bikes off road, the amount of gear they can haul is amazing. I loved how you guys showed that no matter the budget, motorcycle adventuring is a great way to get out there and have some fun. In fact, an argument can be made for making do with less as it adds to the adventure. Loved this video!

[@gorylizor]

Absolutely love the chemistry between you two! Awesome fun!

[@peterholthoffman]

Great video! That looked like a lot of fun! I was looking at a VanVan 200, for the first time ever, just yesterday. It took me back to simpler days when I would 'adventure bike' (we just called it "ride" back then) on my 1972 Honda XL-250. The world needs more basic motorcycles like that: mechanically simple with seats low enough for normal people. We used to think 5" of suspension was plenty and it actually is so there's no compelling reason to have a 36" seat height on an enduro. All of that being said, it would be really good if the VanVan had a big brother. Perhaps a VanVan 350? A little more oomph for those big hills would be nice.

[@shadelz3305]

This reminds me of a lesser versión of Top Gear for motorcycles, Which I absolutely adore.

[@specialcircs]

Definitely not lesser :-)

[@stormtrooper9404]

And unlike those failed actors,Zak and Ari knows what are talking about.And even better... knows their craft. So if something is lesser,than it must be topgear in this case ;)

Been on both ends of that spectrum and I love it, Motocamping is addictive when your destination is remote... or Wales

[@Kreidlerjugend]

Idk if it's just me... But when I see someone on a VanVan with some camping stuff on the back it makes me happy, and I'm immediately interested to talk to the person. But when I see someone on a Multistrada/GS whatever I don't really feel the need too, and I wouldn't even turn my head.

[@SaffronWorldCR]

I can confirm people do talk with me both with or without camping stuff on the back. I guess people really love it 😊

[@Smaug1]

Van-van was DEFINITELY the better choice. I probably would've gone with a CRF250L, the fancy one. By the way, did you guys remember to deflate your tires when you went offroad? That would make the Van-van into a BEAST on those roads. (and would also help out the pig) Ari could've at least had a 1 man tent. You guys have deadly spiders out there, probably poisonous snakes too. The tarp was not as genius of an idea as he thought.

This could be commercials for many of the items or bikes in the episode, as always so envious of you guys having the chance to ride those good bikes in the great nature. Especially when we guys even couldn't ride a Harley or Triumph on our highway in Taiwan :(

[@bradystead7480]

The reason it feels like a commercial - is because it basically is a commercial. who do you think lends them the bikes? If they shit talk the manufactures, they burn bridges, and stop being invited to luxurious European test rides. It's a win win, manufactures get advertising, and reviewers are given bikes to "review", expensive holidays and media content like KZbin videos and magazines that make them money.

[@Tritamer]

Ok, I will just come out and say it: You guys are cool. No marketing, no major agenda, just two guys outfitted with bikes that could only be categorized as two ends of the extreme, having a good time together. Here’s to riding!

I added a top case and commute on it. It hauls my 250lb ass around to 60-65 easily and scores 80mpg. Oil changes cost $10 and valve checks take 30 min.

[@DistinctOgre]

I hate how there are no real or unbiased reviews of the Van Van... all of them are manly men complaining about it not being a "real bike" and not taking it seriously enough to actually give a fair or inclusive review.. Just "It's a fun silly little joke bike lol look how crappy and silly it is!..." No thanks. I actually want a Van Van, I'd like an actual review please. How does it ride? How does it handle? Is it a good commuter, or a city bike.. is it fast enough for short jumps on the highway? How are the ergonomics? Is loud? Or is it quiet enough for fun midnight rides without waking the neighborhood? Is it easy to learn on, or learn to work on? Fuel efficiency? Range per tank? Parts availability? ... We get none of this, just jokes about how it's a fun baby bike for babies and if you buy one you're just as much a joke as it is... not cool. Not everyone needs or wants 1200cc or wants a 600lb beast of a bike to learn on. Some people just want to cruise around locally and enjoy riding a small bike. It really sucks I can't find a single decent review of this bike, because I like it alot and really want one.

Might I suggest a good old Australian Army hootchy poncho, you can wear it as a poncho when wet. You can clip it together with a buddies (or several buddies) hootchy's, and you can tie the loops with shock cord to trees to vastly increase interior space. If you are clever, you can use slender branches and bend them through the hootchy loops and make extraordinarily spacious and versatile geodesic (almost) forms. You can also cut (or borrow) some poles, run them I parallel, and then wrap your groundsheet over them to make a stretcher that gets you off the ground... very important. You can also use a trenching tool to run a little ditch on upslope sides to sluice water away. Can make all the difference between a mild discomfort when it rains/dews to full on soaked to the skin for days. Just takes 30 min. tops, once you are prepared. Makes me nostalgic for the spartan aspect of it all, doing really well with very little is a very satisfying way to comport yourself in the bush...

Did Zack pull out a machete on the road? Don’t you, like, get the death penalty in Commifornia for doing something like that?
