So grab a chair and take a look at some of the places where I've been and I dare you to go out and do the same...it's all quite good fun!

Isle of Man TT Mountain Course Guide - Gooseneck to Creg-ny-Baa on the Mountain Road (IOMTT)
The most scenic part of the TT Course over the Snaefell Mountain Road, clear ride from Gooseneck to the famous Creg-ny-Baa on my MV Agusta F4RR. Filmed on the last Sunday after Race Week 2018 of perfect sunshine and without the crowds of Mad Sunday the week before. There is no speed limit over the Mountain Road only your skill and number of horses in your motorbike.
If you're planning on making a trip to the TT it's working making a mental map of the Mountain Road section of the course! Even as a visitor it's worth learning the course in advance of going as you'll enjoy the road far more without having to learn it all first time. Something that newcomer and veteran racers still do to burn the layout of the 37 mile track into their mind as they hit speeds of 200mph. In 2018 Peter Hickman made a record average speed of 135.452mph or 217.989kph! Always take care when riding the course as there are stone walls, bumps, bends, telegraph poles, manhole covers and jumps that can catch you out!
Features and corners in this clip: Gooseneck, Joey's, Guthrie Memorial, Mountain Mile, Mountain Box, Stonebreaker's Hut, Verandah, Graham Memorial, Bungalow, Hailwood Rise, Brandywell, Duke's Bends, Windy Corner, Keppel Gate, Kate's Cottage and Crey-ny-Baa.
Having first gone to the Isle of Man TT Races in 2017, I got totally hooked on the vibe and atmosphere of the event. There's a palpable sense of comradery amoung the spectators all coming from around the world to watch what is perhapse the greated motorcycle race in the world.
Filmed on a GoPro Hero 6 Black Edition at 60fps with stabilisation.

Beautiful Switzerland Motorcycle Trip in the Alps

The Swiss Alps, home of the world's greatest motorcycle roads! In September 2016 me on a KTM 990 Superduke R and my homeboy ZeroThrough2Hero on a Triumph Daytona 955i rode a over 2,000 miles of pure Swiss alpine mountain passes. Conditions were perfect and it made for one of the most epic motorcycle trips in my life. Pristine asphalt, clear skies for two weeks and riding all day up and down mou...

Before sinking any serious money, I'm going to make sure the engine is sound get get it on the road with an MOT. The intention is to create a cafe racer but first engine work is needed. The noise when the engine is running did not sound good at all, so I inspected the cam chain tensioner and found...
Mangart Pass - Slovenia's Highest Road on KTM 990 Superduke R (RAW)

Riding the best part of Mangrt Road! Tight roads, sheer drops, jagged peaks...probably one of Europe's most spectacular passes in the Julian Alps. There's a small toll to pay and it's a dead-end road but it's worth it for the views even on a cloudy rainy day! The Mangart Saddle is Slovenia's highest road at 2,055m which means it's another tick on my list of the World's Most Dangerous Roads (alt...

There's nothing better than going on an epic Italian motorcycle tour with your bike squad. We toured Italy on our motorbikes from the Dolomites down to Tuscany and back to the Alps. Sorry about the ads, it's a pretty neat track and it summed up the feels of the trip so the band Strange Talk get some pocket money. Anyway, this vid's really just for us to remember the awesome times from that moto...

Ever wondered what happens when you and your friends take a 3,000 mile (5,000km) motorbike trip through Europe? Well we did that and these were the highlights from that awesome adventure.

Everything that I want to say in one 10 minute vlog... call it an update vlog or whatever. Starting to wonder if I spelt September correct but that's besides the point. There's going to be a 'debrief vlog' on the Europtrip since there's been quite a few questions about how to plan such a trip. Also I've now been riding for two years as of the end of August.

It's a place I've wanted to visit for ages and seeing on the back of the bike is the way it should be done. Running down the spine of the Black Forest is the B500. It's a road that was apparently desi...

So here's a little confession from yours truly...I've never ridden a sportsbike since getting my licence. Apart from that one time in band camp when Rocko let me ride his Aprillia RSV4 for like a couple minutes but doesn't count. I'm dying to buy one but...I don't know what I should get. Get a Meg bike (a practice bike) like a Suzuki GSX-R600 SRAD which is cheap to buy and hone my skillz. Maybe...

Nice video. Reminds me of the good ole days doing the same passes. Honda CBR1000 ❤️❤️❤️
How is this a course guide?
not gonna lie, this video played a huge role in convincing me to buy my first own motorcycle, thank you!
Cheers bro! Love getting comments like yours, it’s pretty much why I make these videos…if just one person gets on a bike then my work is done 😅
More of this please. 🇵🇭
Anyone else searched for this song with the link and the band name and can't find it anywhere? One of those great songs which I'll here, and will be on the tip of my memories for life and I'll never here it again.
I’ve updated the link in the description, it’s from their album “No Pressure” and it’s the remixed version of “The Drop” and can be streamed here: landofthegiants.bandcamp.com/album/no-pressure
What song pls?
“The Drop (Giant Steps Remix) - Bonus” landofthegiants.bandcamp.com/album/no-pressure
Ohh Daytona 955 and The Duke!!❤ I have owned them both, lovelyyyyyy!!! 😮❤😊
You sir, are a connoisseur!
ΤΑ ΣΤΟΙΧΊΑ ΤΗΣ ΦΥΣΗΣ, ΕΙΝΑΙ ΜΑΖΙ ΜΑΣ.
Hard to get a feel for a bike on one of those dealer demo days. Even with my big butt and a full tank of gas, this bike is a monster, to this day. Every time I mount the white whale and give it the beans, it makes me shriek like a banshee with sinister delight. Of course, if you have the 1290 Duke, then I'm preaching to the choir. LC8 for the win!
You're right, I tend to go with my gut...if it feels nice then I'm happy. With you on the LC8, although my love is for the 990 generation of LC8!
@@Finnoctane Yeah, agreed. LC8 is hard to beat! I've not tried the 990 or 950, just the 1190 and both my 1st gen and the newest version of the 1290.
Wow 🤩
Iam like 988
Congratulations for your national holiday on 1st August Switzerland from your friends in Germany <3 Switzerland is a beaufitul country with nice landscape, charming people and such a nice culture. I´m really proud to call you our friends. Best wishes for the future from your friends in Germany <3
wat een kut weer XD
I have a trip booked to the alps in a July however my BMW GS was damaged and won’t be fixed in time. I now have the dilemma of doing the trip on my Superduke R or selling it to buy another touring bike 🤔 must have had a sore bum after the miles on the Duke?
To be honest not really, my arse and the seat are pretty well matched. Touring bikes are great but I always find when I've got a nice road I want my fun bike! Don't tell the SDR!
Ended up buying another GS for the trip! Glad I did, I think that sort of miles on the SDR would have killed me! Amazing holiday! 👌🏼
any way you can share your map route
Sorry, didn't keep a track on a GPS. But check out a book called Grosser Alpenstrassen by Harald Denzel. It's basically a complete list of every road worth knowing in the Alps!
Enough ka video band kar diya hun
Viviste el mayor sueño de todo bikers. ❤️
Awesome! Very inspiring! Great Job! 👍👍
beautiful
superb location..

Hey! Can you send me the exact route of the trip?

1:39 one hell of a beautiful shot.
Wow
Really enjoyed the footage and editing choices! Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Love this video
amazing! i can clearly see why this video has survived 6years without a single dislike
Cant wait to be old enough to go drive for myself. Cause i live here in switzerland so yeah
please make new videos!
I will, thanks for your patience!
Beautiful video, beautiful editing, beautiful places.... in these times with all the lockdown and all, these videos are food for our souls..well,at least motorcyclist souls..I recognize many roads, the road to Stelvio,the road to Lecco on Como lake...you were practically in my back garden...hope you enjoyed our country and its roads.
We loved your back garden ;) You guys have got some of the best roads n the world and let's not forget the scenery and the food! Belissimo!
I came to see the G650GS. Didn't see much of it. Wasn't disappointed though! Looks like a blast.
Problem with having a helmet mounted camera ;) Great little bike though!
How many tour videos have I watched over the years....... this one tops them all for it's simplicity and visual ART.... Thank you.
Thank you, you're too kind!
One day ! On a bike ... On these roads !
Don't give up on the dream bro!
How many days to do all these passes? Thanks!! Awesome video!!
You can do them in one day! We did, hella fun but hella tired after!
Wow this looks so similar to North and North east India , beautiful 🙏
Far too many vloggers edit their experiences like they're making a movie or music video. Viewers never get the full experience - it's a glossy edited experience ... with music
4:31 ..that's why I love Switzerland..herding cows whilst drinking a Calanda Brau....
Jesus such good roads in switzerland, how is that even possible that a government does such a good job?
I remember someone telling me "you like Swiss roads, you pay Swiss prices!" LOL
Without doubt one of the most stunning motorcycle travel videos that I have ever seen Hauntingly beautiful perfectly intertwined with music The way the scenes change on the upbeats of the music .....magical I have lost count the number of times I have watched this video and keep returning You have a talent and skill that few can ever hope to achieve I hope that one day you will create more content but at least there is this masterpiece
Just found your channel and binge watched. Great watch all of them :) Just got a SDR and wondered what back pack you use on yours?
Sorry didn't see this...and thanks for your kind words! You've probably already bought packs but I used Kriega. Bit of a faff but they look nice on the bike and I've not seen any hard system that can be fixed to the SDR!
I just watched and really enjoyed your trip from London to Tuscany. It is one of the best travel videos I've seen on CZcams, beautifully shot and edited. Thank you.
Thanks bro, you're too kind :)
This was really cool, I just did a ride there for the first time in August and loved it! So glad I had the GoPro with!
There's not a single view out there that doesn't look like paradise!
Amazing video man. Definitely on my bucket list! A mixture of freedom and adrenaline..
Thanks Adbullah :) Make it happen you won't regret it!
perfect trip into the alps while Corona, makes me feel better!
Glad to be of service :)
Extraordinary video, brings back my own feelings of similar trips, definitely has the essence. Good job!
Awesome, thank you!
great video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you 👍
I really love this art.i mean it. I’m Japanese,I rented a monster in Nice,then went to col de islan ,gurindelwald,furuka pass,sustain pass,aaa many dreaming ways... it was precious precious experience in my life. I’m already 50. But I wanna enjoy Swiss alps,French alps Italian alps with Ducati again. I didn’t a GoPro.cuz my travel is mine.i don’t want to yeah! to someone saying ‘ I visited Swiss alps that was awesome!’ I just wanna feel Swiss,France ,Italy’s alps. So this film is aaa my memory, my precious memory...... my English is awful. I can feel that my experience in Swiss is amazing when I watch this art. I really appreciate a person who created this art.thank you really much.arigatougozaimasu.i will watch this art many times.and I’ll challenge to enjoy europian alps again.l love Italy France Swiss!!!
Arigato :) You make the right choice with the Ducati, perfect bike for these roads and you managed to see many of Europe's best roads! Most European bikers have not ridden as many roads as you have done! I really enjoyed riding in Japan around six years ago, I rode the Izu Skyline on a BMW with beautiful views of Fiji-san just as beautiful as the Alps.
Mate this is fucking incredible, so inspiring, thank you so much for creating and sharing 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks man, really appreciated :)
hi there! yesterday i did a burnout with my 2017 Duke 690. The ABS-signal keeps on popping on the dashboard :( issues ? or was i just too stupid :)
Hi! My 690 didn't have ABS but it could be your ABS sensor is a bit dirty and if you give it a clean it should be fine! Burnout shouldn't have caused any damage.
