THOSE CRAZY ITALIANS! (Stelvio pass) [RAW Onboard]

[@Zanpaa]

They were faster on the straights, harder on the brakes... And you still caught up to them every time! Nice riding, especially considering the size of the road and the traffic. This looks like a bucket list destination for every rider!

[@Schaaf]

+Zanpa it should be! Thanks man!

[@speedmutant]

Which bike you ride bro

[@jakubhornak107]

nah stelvio isnt that good for example passo gardena nockalm strase or grossglockner are way better or even roads around Mariazzel are way better than stelvio. In my opinion Stelvio is the the worst passo i have ever ridden

Fantastic! I've already loved the part 1, but the part 2 is even better! 😍 Now, there is probably an Italian motovlogger who has posted a video of his ride at the Stelvio pass, asking to his subscribers: "Do you know this guy riding a Honda CB 500 in touring mode with a GoPro? It was f**cking hard to pass him, and he kept following us so easily..." 😉 I

[@Schaaf]

+MrKiddo ahahaha that would be awesome :D So far unfortunately I haven't heard anything. Well, Italia is kind of big :D Merci Kiddo!

[@motanelustelistu]

Hello friend . Dacian/ Rumanian rude here 😉 . Just some curiosities , if you don't mind. 1 : CB 500 is air cooler. Doesn't it overheats on this long rides,especially forced/hard riden like this ? 2 : Did you tried '90-'98 Bandits ? What do you think of them ? 3 : Schaaf sounds german. Are you german from italy or just italian from Tyrol 🤔 ?

[@ul1993]

BRAVO!!! Great driving, really precise and on point for speed/prudence/fun. I love to watch these videos, but I'm crazy scared of riding the 2 wheels. Stelvio pass is a biker paradise! Compliments again, da un Italiano!

[@Hadgerz]

One day I may ride these roads.

OMG took me back to 2005, took my brand new R1 there. Shredded our rear tyres in 7 days, mental trip. 15 years older now, don't think I've got the balls any more 🤣🤣

[@Schaaf]

For me it's 6 years but I also lost my healthy dose of stupidity to ride like that ;)

[@brandongardner3073]

Hey man great video, I'm in Australia and i ride a 1999 R1, but it's like new, i would love to ride in Italy.

[@miclchaos]

Nice ride. In 2014 after having watched lots of Alps Riding vidoes I contacted a guy down there named Derpanzer Bau. I went there for a month from the UK and rode (& drank) with them. I learned so much and it made me a better, faster rider. Love the Alps. wish I could live close to there. France & Italy have way more respect for 2 wheels than the British. In the UK everyone has Island mentality. They all own their little piece of road. And I agree, Italians are crazy but we love them!

[@VisualCarReviews]

+Schaaf Thanks for the tip!

[@Wolfox360]

Stelvio has to be done, because it has to be done at least once, But for riding just take any other road around it or around the Merano, Bolzano, Trento to enjoy your bike!!!

true that

[@thomasenkerud2303]

You really are a threat to all of those who think they are better because they got bigger bikes. I saw those bikers shrinking for every turn you kept hanging on their tale. You are a calm rider. And that 500 Honda seems to be on the same pulse. While the other bikes are screaming the Honda is newer “stressed”. It seems so balanced. I like that David vs Goliat “theme”.

Got to love the CB500 for the twisties! Totally appreciate the brake comment though. After jumping off a twin disc bike & onto the CB it's a world of difference.Great vid none the less. Thanks for posting.

[@Schaaf]

thanks man. Actually the CB500 brakes very well once the brake gets a good maintenance. I did that the year after that. Huge difference.

[@nomdeploom5707]

Maybe it's my master cylinder that's just a bit tired. I've got a 1999 CB500 with EBC HH pads & HEL lines (& no air) but it still takes a bit of lever action for the brakes to properly bite. I've also got an '07 FZ1N too though so it takes a bit of getting used to when jumping back onto the CB. Pic of my babies: i.imgur.com/e8uvLoE.jpg
