Always love the Organized Chaos.
Should I change the name 🤔
NOOOOOO
@@ChaosCausesNo, but it's a perfect name for another channel! :) ("Chaos Bits" would be another. Or really any name that starts with "Chaos" xD)
No matter how EP.3 turns out, you still have a lifelong memory of a good trip. Win/win in my book.
Good luck with the sale.
Our next trip will be from Germany all the way to the North Cape in Norway. We will be taking two BMW F750GS from 2018 and one BMW R-nineT from 2018 as well. 6500km in 3 weeks.
Wünsche dir viel Spaß!
@@OriginalSince99 Danke 🙏
Lykke te ått Nordkapp
@@insertyoutubeusername that’s why I will be riding with a relaxed back and one of my friends needs therapy afterwards 😂🙃
The photage from to 360 cam looks so colourful and alive while shots from the other camera looks so bland and dead just a suggestion to boost the contrast in the go pros as well
Great series. However, you’d better hope that your potential buyers don’t watch your channel and try to undercut you…
Let's hope that he filmed this series after he do everything, buy the bike, make the trip and sell the bike
Probably has already sold it.
Love this concept, great videos
Epic Epic Epic vid.
Having grown up in JHB and having done many a trip to "The Berg" in my youth (including one on a DT 175 enduro ) I can honestly say this vid fed my soul just as you describe in your neration.
Your work here on RUclips is just brilliant . Keep it up !! And Thank you for bringing back such wonderful memories 🙂
Was highly looking forward to this!
I really enjoy your series, very original. Couple of tips for your future trips together. Take the backpack and secure it to the tail case. It will give you both more room while riding, more comfortable and safer if you have an accident. Finally, Always take the road less traveled.
Or wear the backpack in front of your chest.
Plan ahead saves yourself headaches later on. Great bike you have there.
"The whole thing in reverse" awesome! I almost missed it, but that was well played. Glad you got a day without the cameras to just enjoy being in the moment with your girlfriend.
I think having such a rigid plan is an interesting challenge that can lead to new ideas. No worries about overthinking!
I knew you were going to mention the missing trampolines when I saw that turnoff xD
Shed a childhood tear myself when I found them missing..
Inspiring trip, time I plan one myself
I am going to do a trip from Skegness England all way down to Cornwall on my ajs cadwell 125 in 2 weeks and I can’t wait
Never had that much Wanderlust but seeing the expanses shown here changes that somewhat.
I think you were generally lucky with the potholes. When I was visiting friends in the Freestate a year ago, there were whole sections of road where the tarmac just didn't exist anymore. It's bad enough in a car, but I would be truly terrified of ruining the bike's wheels and/or crashing on a bike.
Do you have a comms link with the GF or are you enjoying the peace and quiet? 🤣🤣
I have just been to SA, Eswatini and Lesotho, it was an amazing trip through these beautiful countries. Ofc we have been in the Drakensberge. We had a beer in Afrikas highest pub (2874m).
Your tour allowed me to relive my memories and pause the video on any traffic sign to look if I find a name that sounds familiar haha!
I truly wish you take more trips. I have been overthinking soo mich that in the end i didn't ever go on many trips that i wanted to take. Now i have been riding for almost 10 years on the road and i have hardly been anywhere. Please don't make the mistake i made 🖤
Really good travel diary. Maybe you can start calling yourself Itchyscalp 😊
There's something exciting about morning mist on a motorcycle when there's a trip ahead.
Really enjoying this series! I've done similar rides myself when living in Randburg and travelling to see my girlfriend, now wife, living in Hilton KZN. I'd always take a different scenic route to avoid the endlessly straight highway. Some fantastic riding to be had in and around the Drakensberg mountains and into Lesotho.
Wow, 1st time anyone's admitted to being uncomfy on a G/S, even a pillion. Must be those bumpy, twisty SA roads there....
Lol. Inexperienced asses held us back a bit
I was gonna say, I know this is an old GS but those vibrations looked no better than a super budget CFmoto stability and suspension wise.
7:59 yh, right 😂. Nice video idea was something different and enjoyable. Keep up the good work man
Awesome series man. It was great watching this trip. I recognise all those roads and such and it really makes me feel at home in a way. Keep it up dude.
It would be awesome to see a series of these videos; maybe do like a different province per bike project?
Amazingly Done! Loved both the videos!
This is brilliant, well done! I can't wait to see the end,
Absolutely loved the video man !!! Beautiful roads besides the straight parts (N3) haha hope you had a blast man ! Enjoy it ❤😊
Would love to buy GS at that price, here in Europe prices are quite bit higher. So, for now my Hornet will still be the one and only to do the mototrips :)
ALL GOOD Chaos Causes
Nice one chaos
Fantastic series mate, looking forward to the ending
Good stuff. Funny. Interesting. Keep it up.
Excellent vid!. Show us a few more trips. I have a 2015 LC and the seat totally sucks. 60 mins and the wriggles start.
Bro, you should invest in some boots for you and your girlfriend
Last year i bought a Honda CM400C which i went on a road trip with through south-west Germany, im a 1.94cm tall dude so it was an interesting experience... The bike couldn't go faster then 120km/h with the big a$$ windshield i put on it, rode it full beans the whole trip, loved every second of it.
After my first trip away with my girlfriend (now wife!) on the bike I bought a second intercom for her - it is sooooo much better being able to chat as you ride, otherwise it can be pretty boring sitting on the back on straight stretches of road.
MAKES ME WANT TO TAKE A BIKE TRIP TOO!!
When you realize those "cliche" isn't only an old man saying, you're blessed by the spirit of the wind 🍃 isn't it? 😅
Great work brother keep it up
Man amazing video
Looking to do some touring with my girlfriend sometime soon, I love your spirit, guys. Keep up the excellent work. Also your girl definitely a keeper!! Don't screw that up, sir!!
Bru! this is so cool! been wanting to get a bike for ages but just haven't pulled the trigger.
This was spectacular ❤😍 loved it especially the concept, your choice of bike was perfect for the trip!
I wonder if you could do the same thing with a sports bike but instead of a road trip you do X number of track days.
Expensive but awesome idea!
Thats my bike , same color and partially the same trip me and a friend has done .Starting from Benoni 2-5 Jan this year , wow envy you guys.
This is so good, S Tier content,
15:45 yes ... one day ...
i feel that was well thought out actually....though you had a really specific goal in mind aside from "just taking a trip".
sooooo...that makes sense to me?
I’m shocked at both your obliviousness of one of our biggest dams and your pronounciation of it 😂
Enjoying the vid regardless…I promise.
Great video
In Bangladesh, people ride of road with Yamaha rx 100.
Hero slpender 100
And any other 150 cc bike's with was absolutely the limit of our country.
Now CC limit is uplifted to 375cc
Ow Kawasaki has 1 of road bike in our country.
But doesn't provide any service. Maybe 8-9 bike has sold this day
I think the goal would be easier on a much cheaper bike. Usually a few cheap repairs and a good clean brings the resell price up quite a bit. Sure there’s a risk of mechanical failure but that’s part of the adventure. I want to buy a $2k gold wing and ride to visit my sister in Florida (48hrs of riding goodness)
Give us back our bloody Emu 😂. I wonder how americans think that is an Ostrich 😊. Great series, have you thought about strapping the camera bag to the top box, or too much weight up high?
Next time strap that backpack on top of the topbox, will be way more comfortable for both of you.
This really makes me want to do a motorcycle trip, though I would definitely need something more comfortable than my Z400, and I'm not sure I could pull off the "buy a bike, then sell it after to make the trip free" thing, lol.
Loving your videos! Btw, 6:21 there’s a way you can make face ID recognize your face with a helmet!
Gotta look into that!
You remind me of myself. I always had big adventure bikes , the last one being a 1290 SAS 2021 with the radar and a v strom 1000cgt 2018 before that. But I traded in the 1290 after only 6 months and bought a 2022 s1000 RR , realising that I am too scared to go anywhere over an hour from home. But this year I am determined to do some long trips and to get a new adventure bike (Im keeping the RR for short blasts). I am yet to decide on a bike. maybe another 1290 because I have a lot accessories and luggage from the previous bike, 1300gs, or a used 1250. Thanks for the video. Keep up the good work.
Having both bikes is the ultimate garage!
Lol i didn’t realize that driving 4-5hours registered it as a “trip”. Sounds like a regular old weekend ride. 🤷♂️ I figured you were going multiple days or cross country or something. 😂
Les goo
Nice Video series, i liked it a lot.
I think South Africa is amazing. Far more entertaining and idyllic than i expected.
Itchy Boots ride through Southern Africa is worth the watch.
Coudn't you rather strap the backpack on the top case than have it between you two on your back?
For a first roadtrip vid that was good and your editing skills makes it entertaining. What i did not like is . . . Midway through, i was thinking maybe is should sell my cb1000R and buy a GS. Not good thoughts at all!
the views look amazing. i dont think my 150 could eat up the highway like your gs did lmao
I also have a 150 and I want a trip😅😅
More more more
want a comfy long distance bike? get an old suzi or a yammi FJ! surely won't be able to sell for a profit though ^^ either way, keep on riding ;)
you live in South Africa?
Bro. When we riding? Seriously. Hi from Jozi.
habibi come to germany
My heart and mind is killing to go on a trip on a bike the sad part is riding solo on a 125cc scooter is not a good idea i have a car tho but it just makes the trip more boring
125 adventures are great. When I was 17 I rode to Scotland in December, camped and rode back in 24 hours. I would say that trip was as adventurous as any other I've taken and I'm fortunate to have traveled a great deal. I've actually been travelling full time for 6 months now. Strap some luggage on, get out in nature and cruise some back roads. I bet you'd have a great time
@@twowheelsintransit ideas great but where i live its mountain terrain and my 125 is only good for city area if i need to go out i require a bigger bike my older bike GS got totaled wating on a new one 😀
The drankensburg is my home I leave near it, if you look closely towards the destination on the map 2:37 you can see "Bergville", that is where I come from, thats where I grew up😅😅😅
Hey Chaos I just thought I'd extend an invitation to you and your girlfriend. If you two ever decide to come to Arizona in the US for some traveling I'll host you two. I would love to meet and show you around Arizona. The Grand Canyon, Meteor Crater, and a geo-engineered town of Acrosanti.
You’ll make us all start youtube channels 😜 Sounds amazing
What do you figure this bike would go for in the USA? Any idea? Are vehicles in SA usually at a premium there compared to US prices ? Or no idea?
A 2013 BMW GS in my area is $8000-10,000. And that's with the double the mileage of his bike.
US bike prices are among the worst in the entire world. We usually pay at least double what everyone else pays for the same bike, post covid it's more like 2.5x.
@@domenik8339 really? Across the board? Accounting for currency changes and all?
Is this a recent thing like Covid & beyond give or take, like with the car market here where evening is just insanely overpriced where even USED cars sold by private individuals have a “dealer” mark up.
I know south Africa is probably different but in US if your staying on good roads in USA you just buy a 10 to 12 year old Harley Road king or heritage the girlfriend would be a lot more comfortable. I am Nota Harley only guy in India I ride a Himalayan but for comfort for me it's Harley
Genius! Making money by getting a free vacation
6:18 - Not only that, I don't understand their logic (someone please explain), no debit cards accepted but it ok to pay with phone that have debit card stored on it?! 🤔🤷🏻♂
Don’t sell it
Your bike lunch was cheaper than yours…😳
Jesus how cheap is the gas in south Africa?? Or the bmw is cheap on fuel?
Was half full already lol. But filled up there because I knew it would get us to the hotel on a tank
I’m sorry but that’s not a motorcycle trip if you only drive on a straight road, the beauty of a bike trip is arriving to amazing roads that you couldn’t otherwise reach. I’m only saying it because in my opinion you would have had 100 times more fun
Road Trip? Or a short weekend outing. Nice romantic spot to take girlfriends. Hope her butt recovered.
Keep the GS and go further, It won't be free but you will feel free.
I live in Canada. I paid twice as much for my 1200GS. I put 15K on it. Got it nice and dirty. It could do with a good wash. It's still worth roughly what I paid for it. I don't know where I'm going next. I will be going somewhere.
I'd almost like offer you the 6000 for yours. Cape town to Kilimanjaro, Victoria Falls Namibia or who knows where? Your young, be free go, you have the ride. Put another 10 or 15k on it. Sell it for 6000.
You have a good idea. You don't need a 30000 dollar 1300GS to go have adventure. Find nice used older ADV bike Like the GS and go.
Someone will by this bike and go.
Fix the starting sensor. It should start no problem in gear with stand up and clutch in.
please get your GF some Gear. Great video as always
No offence but $300 for a weekend away without fuel in SA? I do long 3-4 day weekends away to scotland in the UK for under 150
Haha you can definitely do it cheaper but this is where we wanted to go.
Don’t sell that bike
Amateurs! Road has a single curve in 2 hours! For that you need a car, not a bike. Girlfriend butt is so untrained that it hurts in 2 hours. I expect improvements for the next trip or the next hour! 😂
4.5 hrs is a long trip? Hahahahaha, newbies....
Haha absolutely! But gotta start somewhere
4.5 hours was a chilly sunday afternoon during summer, on my cb300r (far less comfortable than 1200gs) 😂
Damn, I wouldn’t be bragging if I drive a CB300R 😳😨
@@longlivekawasaki i was bragging riding for longer time despite a far less long trips capable motorcycle 😂 btw im selling and buying a different one
13:22 thats not road works or land slide its been there for years and not being fixed😅😅😅 that olivershoek pass ("ummbengeni" to the locals)
You are South African right? Why talk $ and not R? Keep up the good content. 👍🏼
Explained it in the first episode. Everyone knows their currency conversion from USD.
All of this for a weekend ride? this is overcomplicating the overcomplicating principle.
FOR GOD'S SAKE, put a filter on the video from gopro. Its all white.
Otherwise, great video man, and great series. Thanks for uploading 😊
Needing face recognition is a big problem. If I have to explain it to you, you won't understand.
Bro had the most boring roadtrip just straight roads
I'm surrounded by nothing but straight roads for about 4 hours, don't even have real twisties until about 7 hours out. Still want to make more road trips on the bike and really get out into the mountains with it(about 9 car hours out)
@@drtyhay im lucky i live in Switzerland we have twisties everywere
Could it possibly be because South Africa is significantly bigger than Switzerland?
Or could it possibly be because of the geographical disposition? Think that might be a reason?
Or perhaps the natural landscape design? No?
Why does your girlfriend put a sheepskin on the seat. Way more comfortable. Unless she like the vibrational experience…lol. Nice to see that there are no chemical contrails over your sky’s.
Bad camera footage,bleached contrast.
It’s a bit annoying to watch a South African in South Africa talk like an American. I understand why you do it but then you must show everything in Zar and Dollar and Km and Miles. You know just to help your local people as well
Not sure why you’re annoyed by it when he explained it in the first video? The channel has an international following…nie net damduikers nie 😉
@@johnlaw5762 jy wil nou net onnodig wees so jy kan met liefde in jou moer in vlieg😉
@@johnlaw5762 jy praat van damduikers maar jy lyk vir my so kommon soos kan kom. Eks baie bly jy het so baie trots vir jou eie mense😉
I agree , stupid fake accent , maybe he thinks he's American lost in Africa .
