    0:39 Koniciwa! RUclips sent me your channel and I am pleased to follow you on your travels.
    Japan holds a very special place in my heart as in my previous life I worked for a Japanese company headquartered at Moriguchi city, Osaka. Japan is definitely on my bucket list for touring and your videos are making me yearn to return to Japan to ride.
    Thanks for sharing your travels.

    Gotta always have rain gear! I normally always have my Columbia rain coat and pants in my bags… not for motorcycles… but if it starts raining.. a quick pull off and it’s large enough that it fits over my winter and summer gear.

    • @advinjapan
      @advinjapan  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, totally right. With this new suit though, no rain gear needed. The Kushitani can practically go through a hurricane, better for how much it cost 🤣.

    A cold / rainy day and a high end bike shop at a service stop.........it was meant to be! ;-)

      Yeah, it was totally my fault, no rain gear was a no no.

    I did a little tour around Shikoku last October with a friend on a BMW F800 and Honda CB500. Awesome trip! Have so much fun!
    Looks like you have a lot of riding ahead of you and you've probably seen your fair share of Japanese valleys but... the Iya valley was a highlight of our trip. Incredible.

      I have heard of that, beautiful place!

    初日の雨にはたたられましたね。お疲れさまでした。富士山はそんなに遠くもないのでいつでも行けます。初日少し足を延ばしたのは正解だと思います。それにしても、サービスエリアのクシタニショップでお買い物。助かりましたが、、財布には痛いですよね。。以降の動画も期待して待ってますね。

      財布は本当に痛かった🤣。 I think it worth it though. Great high quality company

    I'm with you bro! I had the same experience with my gear... I thought my waterproof Alpine Stars Andes V3 Drystar jacket and pants could hold me dry, but heavy rain soaked through. Now I do have a full Goretex Rev' It jacket and pants which keeps me dry and warm in all weather conditions. Well, we all learn the hard way, so to say... part of the adventure experiences. Keep up and ride safe. Looking forward to the next episode!

    Awesome video, thanks bro! Question, at any time did you wish you had a different motorcycle?

    • @advinjapan
      @advinjapan  7 месяцев назад +1

      I wish I had another motorcycle🤣. I’d like a 600-700 platform and a small 150-250, but I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of this bike. It makes me smile too much😁.

  • @Stefan_trekkie

    I've suffer for upper back and neck problems since 2016, give up long touring for that reason. Had Transalp for many many years.. The key with this kind of problems in my opinion is to not have weight on your shoulders and the back must be vertical and no off-road 😀. .. Cruiser bike is a good option in my condition but i've switched to e maxi scooter and it is good enough for me.

    • @advinjapan
      @advinjapan  7 месяцев назад

      Man I’m so sorry about that. Right now the pain is minimal for me but it will get worse. At some point I will be joining you friend, until then? …🤟🏻😈

    Good video and subscribed! May i know how do you make the route animation? or which editor you use? TIA!

    • @advinjapan
      @advinjapan  7 месяцев назад +1

      Hey thanks a lot! For the google maps animation I use Apple Motion. For the other 3D map I use Relive, great app, and cheap too!

    After seeing this I think I am going to upgrade my gear.

    • @advinjapan
      @advinjapan  7 месяцев назад

      Good idea 👍. There are two solutions to what happened to me: 1) you can simply carry rain gear with you (cheaper alternative, but inconvenient), or 2) spend the money to get really good gear (expensive but much more convenient). I went with 2 because I already have so little space in my luggage. And I don’t want to have to pull over and put on rain gear.
