In last three years I would have seen this video numerous times. I have been planning for this trip since 2015 and at last in Nov'19 I finally did it. What a place ...Nepal! The locals do it on a 150cc motorcycle to most parts of Nepal and when they see us on big machine, most just smile :-) BTW Jana was surely entertaining :-) lol
i watched the crossing pakistan video and then i couldn't stop myself from viewing each and everyone of your videos and I'm a fan now. I'm an indian and if you visit india again I'd like to show you around the mountains and your old good friend "the mud roads".
Amazing scenery, challenging "roads" and good cheer among friends. I would think you might be more careful at speed when next to such a drop off, particularly on a rocky trail, but you know your own skill level. Ladies did acceptable and kudos for taking the adventure. Am picking up a 2003 640 ADV soon. Can't wait!
Cool und würdet ihr Nepal empfehlen? Wie viele KM hast mit der KTM während der Reise zurückgelegt und hast du Wartungen eingeplant oder erst nach der Reise? Wie waren die Einheimischen?
I love it for it's offroad-sport-capabilities. However, it needs quite a lot of servicing, official service intervall of 5000km and a number of parts in the engine that usually fail every 35.000 to 50.000km...
+Shane Edele Hey there! All the best for your plan! - Unfortunately I don't think I'll be in this area of the world again anytime soon... Other priorities....
Wir waren jetzt nicht besonders weiträumig in Nepal unterwegs, die Dirt-Road Szenen sind aber alle westlich von Pokhara gewesen, soweit ich mich erinnere... Generell: Desto abgelegener, desto gut! ;-)
Well, it wasn't that little most of the time, only when we did some two or three day trips from some sort of base camp, then we did leave most of our luggage there. Most of the time though we were fully packed, as you can see at the beginning of the video...
We totally loved our bikes on the entire trip! And I still do, just came back from 1800km tour to Romania, now more than 100.000kms on the clock and still going like the mad dirteater she was born as! ;-)
Before the trip we were riding for about 5 years, purely onroad and mostly on powerful bikes like a Speed Triple. The 640 Adventures were our first ever offroad capable vehicles!
Ahoy! I really like your videos and bikes! Is it a BIG problem, if I can only get one foot on the ground on a KTM 640 adventure? (I'm 176 cm high) Can I still go on adventures like you guys do?
Well I think Richi is roughly your size. I would say in 99% of the time it is not much of an issue, but when the terrain is getting difficult (deep sand, loose rocks) it is more difficult for him to catch the bike before it drops. You can see that at the beginning of this video... ;-) So the answer is: No worries, go ahead!!! :-)
Knightofspirit You two guys made me really want to ride a bike. I never rode any bike in my life. 2 month ago I started to learn (first motorbike traffic rules, handling, etc) On the first day of practice, I started on a moped. After 4 hours, I was riding a 250cc bike. It was awsome! On the next day 400cc, after that 600cc! From zero to hero in 3 days. One more test (traffic) and I'll get my license :D
Knightofspirit AWESOME!!! It's really great to hear that my videos had such an impact on you! Makes me a bit proud too, I must confess! :-) I kinda did the same to my girlfriend, she now owns a 640 LC4 Enduro - which is the same height as the adventure, and she's less than 170cm! What kind of bike do you want to get yourself? Congratulations!
triplehoernchen Thanks :) Well, I just have to get a job and save some money. (I just finished university) I visited a shop some months ago, and find this one: www.hasznaltauto.hu/motor/ktm/ktm_640_adventure_r-8061130 I couldn't ride it, and it felt a bit high, but this could be the right one for me. Unless KTM introduces a 390 Adventure this weekend in Milan (EICMA). There is a lot to be done till I get my gear and my bike, but when I do, I would like to meet you guys in Austria, and thank you personally. I dust off my german ( I learned it for 13 years, but didn't use it since ). So wir könnten zusammenfahren, und spass haben :D
Died you go through China? If so did you have to get a guide for Tibet? Or did you realy go through Pakistan and India? Looks like an amazing adventure! Great riding too!
Check out that video, it should answer some of your questions: ruclips.net/video/C5mFpqS9V4g/видео.html And you can find a more detailed map in some of the last posts on our blog nowsomethingcompletelydifferent.blogspot.com
Wow! This is the best ride that I have seen. That was a really rough ride, love the bridge crossing. With all of the other bike dumps I was beginning to think that if you dumped yours you might edit it out, but you didn't.I am impressed. Driving at the pace you are, do you ever get to enjoy the scenery?
I don't have a spare socks!! lol funny man. very funny. you people are so amazing. I would love to watch your videos whenever I feel down. Wish to meet you someday. love from India
May i know the number plate of the country it doesn't seems to be Nepal's, any ways just enjoyed your video and that lady on the ktm ride looks to brave to travel such a danger road
We're from Austria, some of the travellers we rode with were from Germany and England. And the girls in the video were riding a Suzuki Freewind (Jana) and a Suzuki DR 400 (Fern)! KTMs are too high for most girls! ;-)
Great video guys. I love the KTM640. I'm heading to Indian side of himalayas to ride Royal Enfields in July. It should be great fun, too bad I can't take my KTM however.
Well, the fact that it is practically impossible to rent a proper bike anywhere in India was the first reason for me to even consider riding there overland... ;-)
Nichts Konkretes, und vermutlich in längerer Zeit auch nichts in der Größenordnung. Vielleicht mal Marokko, Zentralasien würde mich auch sehr interessieren, aber die nächsten Jahre hab ich definitiv andere Prioritäten...
+kloppskalli Das ich nicht OT suchen muss liegt am sehr gut funktionierenden Autodeko, das sie so gut anspringt an der Vergasereinstellung. Wenn sie kalt ist muss ich sie schon bis zu 3 mal treten... ;-)
Well, so far we've always found a piece of "road" behind every corner, altough sometimes it wasn't quite where we thought it would be, but somehow we always managed to get around without too much trouble... ;-)
I love it, no boring chit-chat... just straight to the action!
Thank you guys..
Hello, mate!
Have you the tracks what did you do across Nepal?
Thanks!
Yes, think so. If you tell me an e-mail adress I can send them...
triplehoernchen ok, thanks a lot. My email is rodrijrr@gmail.com. I really appreciate it!
I love your Videos I know you guys have so much fun driving through different countries
Great to see you guyz travel lot of mountainous roughroad where i have not yet been...its a kind of cool....!!!!
In last three years I would have seen this video numerous times. I have been planning for this trip since 2015 and at last in Nov'19 I finally did it. What a place ...Nepal!

BTW Jana was surely entertaining :-) lol
Congratulations! Great to hear that we inspired you!
nepali people looks really awesome.
hi. nice vedio in your collection... can let me know which route you taken means the course you follow...... in Nepal..
Try for Manang, Upper Mustang, RARA and Dolpa.... These are really amazing place for biking
Great video! Just got a similar bike like yours. A KTM adventure 2003. shall start train to ride like that!
i watched the crossing pakistan video and then i couldn't stop myself from viewing each and everyone of your videos and I'm a fan now. I'm an indian and if you visit india again I'd like to show you around the mountains and your old good friend "the mud roads".
Thanks a lot! Would definitely love to travel India again, but right now I've started a family, so the next 25 years no big adventures... :-/
Amazing scenery, challenging "roads" and good cheer among friends.

i wish you guys had proper 1080p quality.however the videos looks great.
Servus, sau cooles Video, mal so rein aus Interesse, wie habt ihr eure Bikes nach Nepal bekommen?
Danke!
Videobeschreibung gesehen?
Cool und würdet ihr Nepal empfehlen? Wie viele KM hast mit der KTM während der Reise zurückgelegt und hast du Wartungen eingeplant oder erst nach der Reise? Wie waren die Einheimischen?
+drbenpepper
Das lässt sich in ein paar Sätzen leider schwer sagen, schau dir am besten unseren Blog an, link ist in der Videobeschreibung! ;-)
Hey man
Would you recommend this bike ?
How difficult to maintain this bike away from the shop ? Maybe you can make video about it??
I love it for it's offroad-sport-capabilities. However, it needs quite a lot of servicing, official service intervall of 5000km and a number of parts in the engine that usually fail every 35.000 to 50.000km...
what equipment did you use on your bikes and on you? (sory my bad english). greetings from Argentina
Awesome video. I plan on going through India to Nepal and cross the highest motor able pass in the world. Plan on going back? I got a KLR 650
+Shane Edele
Hey there!
All the best for your plan! - Unfortunately I don't think I'll be in this area of the world again anytime soon... Other priorities....
How u riding in dirt road ,so fast
Geiles Video! Grüße aus der Südsteiermark. Ich flieg dieses Jahr nach Nepal. Welche Strecken haben euch am besten gefallen?
Wir waren jetzt nicht besonders weiträumig in Nepal unterwegs, die Dirt-Road Szenen sind aber alle westlich von Pokhara gewesen, soweit ich mich erinnere... Generell: Desto abgelegener, desto gut! ;-)
may i ask what is ur gear is this adventure ? u seem travailing light and smart .
Well, it wasn't that little most of the time, only when we did some two or three day trips from some sort of base camp, then we did leave most of our luggage there. Most of the time though we were fully packed, as you can see at the beginning of the video...
New subscriber. Salute sir i hope you visit also in Philippines and we met here. God bless and more adventures . Ride safe
That Nepali guy was saying they had never come to Pokhara that quickly.

We totally loved our bikes on the entire trip! And I still do, just came back from 1800km tour to Romania, now more than 100.000kms on the clock and still going like the mad dirteater she was born as! ;-)

+ThreesomeWithTwins
Of course we went through Pakistan and India! ;-)
Wow amazing. Kudos to you guys! Must have been a great adventure,
Cool video. Also, you have a green Ktm! What's the background to this? Did you hire bikes out there, ride there or ship your bikes there?
Okaycc it became clearer. 232 days of riding and 30,000km. Wonder what the route was

Best bike for these sort of trips. Nice vid. great adventure!
Cant wait to we are riding in Nepal in 2 years time..! KTM
Fantastic riding and video !
I think this is just a great video...Thank you for sharing
May i know the number plate of the country it doesn't seems to be Nepal's, any ways just enjoyed your video and that lady on the ktm ride looks to brave to travel such a danger road
We're from Austria, some of the travellers we rode with were from Germany and England. And the girls in the video were riding a Suzuki Freewind (Jana) and a Suzuki DR 400 (Fern)! KTMs are too high for most girls! ;-)
wow nice view!take care always guys!
This was one of the most funniest vids i have seen on riding through Nepal hahaha guys what type of KTM 640 are you driving?
Amazing... that last suspension bridge was killer.
I might do something like this in near future but a few notch below in adventure :D
That easy to ride . i have ride on dhodahara chadhani with fzs v3 .1 km long suspension bridge
looks very rugged roads!
Great video guys. I love the KTM640. I'm heading to Indian side of himalayas to ride Royal Enfields in July. It should be great fun, too bad I can't take my KTM however.
Well, the fact that it is practically impossible to rent a proper bike anywhere in India was the first reason for me to even consider riding there overland... ;-)
triplehoernchen that is impossible man ... in india you can rent anything from bicycle to rolls royce also ;)
N Rose royal enfield is a good one for himalaya and if you have any problem in india you can contact me ;)
Cheers for the offer Mangesh
u guys didnt go to mustang>?
we passed through! ;-)
+triplehoernchen awesome...cheers to u guys for visitin nepal!!

das war bestimmt die verrückteste tour eures leben oder? :D
+Lord YHXZ
Bis jetzt schon, aber ich bin ja noch jung! ;-D
+triplehoernchen habt ihr denn schon was neues in planung?
Nichts Konkretes, und vermutlich in längerer Zeit auch nichts in der Größenordnung. Vielleicht mal Marokko, Zentralasien würde mich auch sehr interessieren, aber die nächsten Jahre hab ich definitiv andere Prioritäten...
+triplehoernchen jo verständlich, Marokko kling natürlich auch gut ohne frage!
Thank you for the visit hope you had a great time :)
Saugeiles Video. Hat Spaß gemacht. Daumen Hoch!!!
this video kind of looks like a video game. awesome.
Royal enfield Himalayan is ideal for such tracks ! Enjoyed your video (y)

Zehr gut! Alles gute aus Canada.
Hans
I really enjoy your video man,... and I think at 19:53 is heaven!
thanks for the video ... cheers
Great sir

The KTM 640 Adventure has so many rally genetics, it's impossible to ride slow on a good dirt track! ;-)
bravo
triplehoernchen sir i wanted to watch ur crossing Pakistan border to india vlog tell me whr i can find one....plzzzzz
looks like jana is funny !! 9:50 😄😄
Great video!
Salud!
Jana is superb
"australians" are used to dirt roads......
Incredible
Nice my contry
Is this the road to Paradise? Hahhahaha, nope, this road IS Paradise! Journey vs destination.
at 9.00 haha .. that is adventure .. thx for sharing . hope u dont stop
wieso startet deine ktm so einfach mit einem kick?? kein OT suchen, nur ebebn einmal 'ritsch' und die Mühle läuft? bin sprachlos..
+kloppskalli
Das ich nicht OT suchen muss liegt am sehr gut funktionierenden Autodeko, das sie so gut anspringt an der Vergasereinstellung. Wenn sie kalt ist muss ich sie schon bis zu 3 mal treten... ;-)
Well, so far we've always found a piece of "road" behind every corner, altough sometimes it wasn't quite where we thought it would be, but somehow we always managed to get around without too much trouble... ;-)
Haha..u r fucking awesome..what a crazy drive..even I am scared to watch..haha..anyway thanks for video and visiting nepal.
Wow nice video
incredible india..
Yeah your india is incredible but this is Nepal
