  • Motorbike tours alone, together, in the group?

    I don’t travel on a motorcycle often, but I like it. No big things, so far always alone. I like it. Here at home, for smaller tours, I have to go to someone who rides with me. You’re not really fat, but you know each other, you know each other, you know each other. Compulsively. Similar machines, similar driving style. I like it too. Now we have a bigger tour together at the après-mopped coffee. For two or with a troupe. Loose. Not really concrete, more palavert. But one has already experienced differences, daily performance, overnight stay etc., one squats at times easily 12 hours on the dock, for the other not conceivable, one needs a bed, the other enough a tent. One needs tipping breaks, the other not. Nothing that really bothers. I am just as tolerant, sociable and sometimes unsociable, as calm and restless. Would interest me sometimes what you have done for experiences. Alone, for two, or in the group. Long and short Have you ever regretted driving on your own again? Finding buddies for life? Killing buddy and selling his kidneys?

  • Last sunbeams 2017 by motorcycle: Piedmont at the end of October

    On the Feldberg in the Black Forest the first snow has fallen today. Nevertheless, at the end of the week we want to venture again the two-wheeled jump over the Alps, it attracts Piedmont, more precisely: the upper Italian lakes, even more precisely: Lake Maggiore. The Enduros stay at home, we use heavy, weather-resistant tourers, the destination is Verbania, hotel rooms are reserved, there we want to explore the area for three days. Tips and suggestions ?

  • Compact all-round hanger for motorcycle transport??

    Hello together, I’m just thinking about whether I can use our trailer for a motorcycle. I’d like to have the fixed mounting of a rail with a rocker. The mopped: an XS 650, the old iron weighs 227kg and is over everything, i.e. with rear protective sheet, 217.5 cm long. The trailer: A Stema high loader (wheels under the loading surface), unbraked, GG. 750kg. And now it comes: Loading area 201 x 117 cm. Is this realistic or can you forget it from the beginning? A special motorcycle Hän This is not possible because the trailer is mostly used for general transports, a wider all-rounder for reasons of space in the garage unfortunately also not .. VG Abstoiber

  • Does anyone have experiences and tips for Sicily?

    At our last regular table a motorcycle and big scooter tour to/from Sicily was proposed. A look at the topography of the island at first sight highly interesting expected. We imagine that the destination on Pentecost next year should be well to drive. What deterred is the wide access path and possibly bad road conditions and possibly ruthless Fiat drivers. Has someone experience with motorcycle rides on Sicily and with ferry connections there. Also information about accommodations would be helpful. Thank you already in advance for your opinions.

  • Travel report: the Vercors and the Col du Galibier

    The Vercors mountain range, in the extreme west of the French Alps, looks like an oversized Trutzburg. A landscape with deep, rugged gorges and wild rock falls, widely branched cave systems and dreamy little villages. This difficult-to-reach mountain range with peaks up to 2,350m height can still only be explored today via narrow and bold roads. Only at the beginning of the 20th century the area was opened up with the help of sufficient dynamite. I In vertical rock walls galleries were blown up and some of the most spectacular mountain roads were created, such as the “Gorges de la Bourne” and the “Combe Laval” }>

  • Search Tips for Sardinia

    “Good evening, everyone!” We probably want to go to Sardinia in 2014. It is not yet fixed where our domicile will be. The group can be strong 30 people. It would be possible for the overnight stay e.g. mobile homes like you can find them on camping sites or mountain huts like you can find them in the Alpine region. A bit away would not be bad – we want to bring music with us. Does anyone have a suggestion? This holiday is of course about driving. Is there anyone who has one or more tips? Directly accessible viewpoints are also asked. Museum visits are not so much. Hours of hikes also not. Which is the cheapest/best ferry option? Civitavecchia? Give your best! Thanks Q.

  • Permanently deposit motorcycle in Italy

    I plan to deposit a motorcycle at my small holiday home in Italy. Is this generally possible with a German registration number? Then I have to take it to the TÜV every 2 years to D. Or do I have to allow it in Italy. I have registered a residence there. Is there regulations /experiences? Thanks for tips!

  • Which moped for a long journey

    Moin Moin. So here he is, my first post. ?? I would like to drive from Baden-Württemberg to Pakistan next year (Indian border area). At the moment I drive a Honda CBF 600 NA ABS and a Virago 535. I like both of them, only with the Naked it won’t work. Now I’m unsure what to drive with. Time a few key dates: 1. I want to drive relaxed and not shoot there. 2. I will drive a lot “around”. So in Turkey e.g. on the coast, in Iran times to Teh 3. The way would be Europe – Turkey – Iran – Pakistan (about 12,000km) 4. You will also stay in the desert and not always in the pension. What a good load requires. To me: I am 172 cm, 80 kg heavy, 32 years old. Previous favorite bikes: – Suzuki DL650 – BMW 800GS – XVS 950 Midnight Star – Honda NC 750 – or really the Virago 535 You see I’m open to everything ?? What do you think. Does anyone have experiences? What would you encourage me to do?

  • quiet helmet for longer journeys and faster speeds

    Good day, I have often been driving a ~800km distance back and forth, which means that I sometimes use the highway for a longer time with just under 200km/h. That’s super loud (from the helmet, have nen Shark Skwal (Louis told me 2 years ago that this is the best I can get for my head and has explicitly advised me of more expensive helmets, Schuberth and the like) and after I started the route with the helmet now ~8 times? 10 times? 13 times? So I need a nice safe helmet, which is still relatively quiet at 200kmh. The Neotec II and the Shoei NXR look quite good for me on the paper, the Neotec would be like a folding helmet to fill up and just fold up or drink a little bit super, but folding helmet –> louder? I thought I’d ask the more experienced people here for advice. And where did I think a helmet change might be quite good before I wear lasting damage or make it even worse? I am already there, I usually travel with tank backpack + backpack there (except luggage roll) something else that makes the trip more pleasant, a must-have, which I may not know?

  • Vosges + Black Forest – Passengers wanted

    Hi guys, I have planned a tour of Vosges and Black Forest for May and am looking for nice people who want to ride with me. I see this as a great way to get to know like-minded people. I added the rough route planning for the Vosges part. My plan is to stroll from Cernay to Straßbourg and look for a nice place in the vineyards on the eastern flank in the evening. I would try as nice campsites as possible with good If someone who reads the article knows such campsites or culinary highlights in the Vosges, I would be happy to find some tips. Arriving in Strassbourg I want to get the Rhine plain behind me as quickly as possible and after the west flank of the Black Forest back towards Freiburg. From driving style I am quite versatile. Everything is possible with me from quiet cruises to sporty corner hats. However, I have to go straight ahead. I also like to look for my luck on the right or left of top asphalted roads and basically have nothing against well-fortified forest or gravel tracks (but don’t have to be). Sometimes I like to take a picture of one or the other. Maybe something to me (it has to fit between us). I am Simon, 28 years old and am a black waltz from Bavaria. Especially in the South Black Forest I know myself. The tour is supposed to take place between 4th and 13th May. On pure driving time I would start about five days. Maybe I could wake up the interest of the one or the other. If yes, just write! If no, can nevertheless develop a nice round of it the tips to routes, refreshments, sights, wineries, etc. in Vosgesen and Schwarzwald has ready.
