  1. Another lovely video I wanted to take the lawson mega coffee out of your hands I had so many when I was travelling there yum. ,love the waterfalls and the volcano brought back so many memories, even the horse meat I tried it in Okinawa ,glad I did .cant wait for tomorrow ,keep them coming .

  2. thank you for sharing with us such an awesome journey with beautiful views! i feel like this channel definitely deserves lot more viewers. keep going!!

  3. I wish your next bike would be the nx500, not triumph tiger 900, because I am considering to buy the nx500. I was thinking why I am addicted to your videos. It is mainly three things: 1. the thumping sound of gb, the looks of it, the way it can be ridden, 2. the beauty of japan and 3. the special way you can talk about simple things. You are doing a great promotional job for Honda company, who should reward you with a new motorcycle of your choice, if they only have a clue what is good for their business. I wish they soon realise this and they will do what they absolutely should do, sooner than Triumph does. Logical upgrade to gb would be the nx500 (with some sound enhancer, scorpion, e.g.), because I think, the gb and nx are interesting +- for the same group of people. The bigger touring bikes, 70ps and stronger, those are interesting for different people, people who can invest more into their ride and are willing to do so, because they need more ps to be able to do fast overtaking on speedways. I think it is important for you, if you want to keep the audience of "side road people", who can enjoy the landscape while riding, to consider my words. I know the story about your decision considering the next bike, but maybe you can think about it once more. Drastically more powerfull bike will change the style of your riding, your destinations, your perception of landscape and will completely change the character of your videos, think about it. I deliberately do not speak here about cl500, even it is closer in style to gb350, because nx500 should simply do everything better. I hope, Honda marketing people are reading this too. Good luck while riding and enjoy every moment in best possible way!!

  4. Question about the bike, i was thinkg of buy It, buy buy, im a Little esitante about the cruising Speed, can you Cruise for multiple hours at 100/ 120 kmh?
    PS. Sry for my bad english

  5. Keep it up man! I just started riding my bike since the weathers been better and its great I hope to do a trip like this one day!

  6. The scenery is so amazing and the people are so lovely. I've loved seeing your interactions with the people you've come across. It has really been a wonderful addition within the last two videos and it really showcases what adventuring is all about. Keep up the good work sir and can't wait for the next one!

  7. Another beautiful video and such a beautiful country. What I also appreciate is the diversity in the landscapes. Thanks πŸ™
