Vietnam is a popular place to travel and do roadtrips. More often than not most budget travelers will purchase a honda win and use that to travel from hanoi to saigon. Because of this you don't want to purchase a honda win. The honda win isn't a bad bike but in this motovlog we talk about why it's a bad decision.

Yeah, this is solid advice to avoid the Honda Win. I got an XR150L for my adventures in Saigon and around.
How is jt
if you're going to buy a Win, try and look for the Lifan Win. Its the best one available other than a genuine Honda Win....which you wont find
Lol
@@Creativenerdnedia it's true
I bought a Honda Win in Hue and rode it to Saigon with no problems. It overheated a lot but that's to be expected with the cheap Chinese knockoff engine that it had and the hot temperature along with small engine size. Had a tire go flat outside of Dalat and got it fixed by a local for next to nothing; which blew my mind at the generosity of the locals. Just wondering if you can even get a real motorcycle in Vietnam, like could you buy a 650 and really enjoy the highways?
😂
Ya dude there are plenty of bigger motorcycle for sale or rent but they are alotore expensive
sorry dude but you are only half right. detect wins are made in Hanoi . the parts are made in Vietnam. people buy them because they are the cheapest bike you can buy that will go north to south. telling people to buy something else is silly as more expensive bikes take longer to sell. today market a 2018 honda win will set you back 180 to 220 dollars . the closest manual bike you can buy to that price is a Suzuki gn 125 for about 600 dollars . the GNs are also about 20 years old at this point so all the parts on you gn will with out a doubt be from china they also don't have a kick-start so if your battery runs out best of luck . my advice for travellers as one myself is to buy a newer win and check the bike before you buy it . sounds simple but you would be surprised
And every year there's stories of accidents
@@Creativenerdnedia a honda wave or blade . Have no extra safety features then a win. And if you want something that does have life saving technology like abs or adaptive suspension then your forking out about 150 mill . Best of luck dude
@@EnduroRidesWR Completely false what your quoting for having a bike with ABS (150 mil) obviously a clear lack of research at all on your part and a complete lack in the understanding of bikes in general . Let's start with the bike I bought new. 'Honda Winner X V3' 41 mil with abs and dual disk brakes if it happens to be on sale from a Honda Head store as mine was. 51 mil. or so if not. If buying used then some where around 30 mil. give or take for a Winner X V2 and even some V3's with ABS.
Also your "advice" for travelers such as yourself buying a newer win and checking it out isn't the is all and end all for dodging a mine field. As you said it sounds simple so let's go with that. The most "simple" and important thing you didn't quote here to "help" other travelers would be the VERY short oil change intervals the "Win" MUST HAVE which is about every 300 kilometers compared to about every 1,000-1,500 kilometers for other small cheap bikes such as Waves, Blades, Jupiters or Sirius depending on if it's mineral oil, semi synthetic or full synthetic oil being used.
A solid used bike such as one of these can be had in the neighborhood of around 9 million and up. (around 380 dollars) And you'll get a WAY more reliable bike in every aspect compared to Chinese copy Wins. Any "research" at all will quickly show why everything else is completely superior to a "Win". I hate even saying the word win as there is no winning to be had on one of these death traps.
@@Dreamcatcher28805 eeehh technically I qouted abs or adaptive suspension. But yes fair enough a new Honda winner. Untitled no number plate would be 50 ish mill . But you would need a trc to buy one. And a full vietnamese license. My other points still stand . Best of luck selling a winner with no blue card or fake blue card and not loose your ass on the sale. If someone wants a bike that can drive from siagon to hanoi and only make a 2 or 3 mill loss. Then the win is your man
@@Dreamcatcher28805 also bag packers simply do not have the 20 to 25 mill for a second hand winner. Even if you get a good one that needs absolutely no work to get you over your trip. And you have the money to buy one .the bag packers on the other side don't want to buy it because they don't have the money. So your stuck selling to the local expat community .I see it all the time you can pick these bikes up from tourist leaving the country on a flight in 4 hours for 10 to 15 mill. Or less
I have bought one Chinese Win for rebuild (it did not move more than a year) just for fun as second bike =) as challenge)
Ok
because it is China's Honda Win, if it is Indonesia's Honda Win, it is very good, but this moto is a rare , so it is collected by Vietnamese people.
rofl
I almost bought one today from some French guy and that thing was very finicky starting and he was trying to tell me oh it’s you not the bike I’m like no if there is a very pacific way to start it it’s the bike and he try to trick not realizing the bike path stall if you don’t give it gas by driving around the parking lot and I I knew he was not happy when he realized I was a real Bucket head who knew what he was talking about I also immediately realized there was a Yamaha exhaust on it and for $200 it would be worth it as a project bike but I need a bike I can do 75 miles a day on for a year so I walked he started walking before I did because he realized also that I was trying to get my Vietnamese wife to walk away as all I was seeing in that bike after five minutes was a $200 bike that would cost me at least $600 in parts not including a good mechanic to put it together
Good choice
Exactly correct. Buy a Genuine Honda/Yamaha semi-automatic instead
👍
Why do you drive like a young buffalo?
It's the kinda driving that gives us expats a bad name.
Though, I completely agree with the information given.
who cares
@@Creativenerdnedia People care. You're not part of the solution to the already deadly roads, rather continuing the problem.
200 bucks for a bike. What do you expected, pal?
👍
What happened to your FTR223?
It's getting rebuilt and a ton of custom work. I'm publishing a photo book to go with it. It's going to document the entire build and what we are aiming at
Exploiting fossil resources... let’s hope, countries like Vietnam will see some progress in electric mobility, too.
Lol the electricity comes from coal
