- The 9th motorcycle tour through the Balkans 2023 (June 22), still in Albania. We had 140km to cover from Vlora to Ksamil, but we passed through some really fascinating places. Llogara Pass, A road that takes you through some beautiful landscapes, on the right the Çika mountain and on the left the Adriatic sea.
Bonus at the end of the day, 300m before we reached our accommodation Vila Fredi... we almost were hit by an unconscious person with a car in Ksamil. We avoided a disaster at the last moment...

#1EurochallengeForTheNewTransalp
My story as a motorcyclist started from my early childhood. Since I was only a few years old and my brother Atti (10 years older) would put me on the tank of his small 70cc motorcycle and let me pull the throttle...
Anyway, I think it was also genetic, since the time when my parents were traveled along of Romania in the 70`s, with their bike called Mobra 50cc.
At the age of 9 I acquired my first 49cc Yamaha Mint scooter.
One day, in 2005 my brother bought the 2001 TransALP 650, with 2145km. And from there his love story for TransALP but also mine, began!
At the age of 19, In October 2007 - I managed to complete the motorcycle driving school.
Just a few days later, the search began for my new motorcycle... which obviously had to be a TransALP! I had a maximum budget of 2000 Euros.
After further searches, we found in our city in Arad, Romania...
A TransALP 600cc, from 1992, green, with 64,500km, 1950 Euros.
The best life I could have started. From Oct 2007 to the end of 2010 I did about 50,000 km.
In that time the TransALPs bloomed like mushrooms after the rain. Somehow I became an unofficial TransALP Romania ambassador. We already had our gang and community of TransALPs. Many tours together followed, official annual meetings around the country.
After 2010, things changed, some personal, familiar problems appeared. And life took a completely different turn.
In all these years (2010-2016 aprox) this passion for motorcycle trips has dwindled drastically...
In 2020 I decided to "resurrect" my CZcams channel - Lutzifer Videographer. Channel established on March 1, 2008.
The years passed, and I had around 700 uploaded videos. Unfortunately, at that time I did not know how important the copyright of the songs is. 90% of my clips were either restricted or worse, blocked!
My decision was to delete everything and have it from scratch, on the same channel. But now it comes the time to make a new channel only dor Motorcycle Travel and Exploring this beatiful world!
From 2020 I knew that going forward, this is my dream. To travel as much as I can by motorcycle. They are phasing them out with the neighboring countries and they are moving forward...step by step.
For the last 3 years I have been struggling to find a balance between "Money - Free Time".
Even if we try to find the cheapest option, starting from accommodation, until two people eat a single portion of food, however, it costs.
Since I was a little kid, my dream was that one day to have a new motorcycle with which I can see the world. In addition to the fact that riding a motorcycle gives me personal satisfaction, I am even more happy when I can inspire others to do the same.
In the year 2021, after a long and complicated story, the whole family was left stranded and homeless. Moment when everyone went where they could, because life goes on. We're not complaining, some things are meant to happen to find a different path in life. Everything happens for a purpose!
And what I am about to tell you is not a "begging", because from my point of view it is not about money, but about "the power of people and the power of example".
After several clips, pictures, presentations, information about the new Honda TransALP 750 motorcycle appeared... I liked it a lot!
In 16 years of being a Honda TransALP owner and about 140,000 km traveled with two models (600/650), my heart still pulls towards the TransALP. Even though the market is full of many other similar models and brands.
The challenge is to reach 10,000 people who donate at least 1 Euro, as soon as possible!
I think the greatest satisfaction will be when all these thousands of souls will be mentioned in the video episode with the purchase of the new TransALP 750! I know that the goodness of people still exists, despite the times we live in!
The entire story is much longer...

The most beautiful way to explore the world is on a motorcycle, where you are with nature, feel the wind on your face, and I'm glad we have the opportunity to make these episodes that will remain memories for years to come. It's even nicer when you see that others appreciate your work. And yes Albania was a unique experience after all.❤
For sure 🙏☺️
Loved touring Albania in 2022 on my 20 yr old Bandit, Albania is a long way from the Baltic however!!
Thanks for watching 😁🤝
Have a nice riding season in 2024 💪😎
I'm from Bulgaria. 2 years ago my friends went to the sea in Albania and on the second day they moved to Greece because it is very expensive in Albania.
I'm waiting for your trip in Bulgaria. 1 week ago I bought the same bike and I am waiting for panniers racks from Romania ;)
Sad but its true.
@blackeagle7947 Yes 🙄 you have to take Albania like an experience 😁🤙 and then is everything okay 🙏☺️
@marianpopov Hello 🙋🏻♂️ Thanks for watching and for your comment 😁🤝
Yes, that's true. I heard that thing also from other people too. 😬
That's Albania, an experience 🙏☺️.
Unfortunately we didn't take the route through Bulgaria, when we went at home to Romania. Initially that was the plan. But in the end we went home through Macedonia, Serbia.
But, one day for sure we will visit Bulgaria 😁🤙
Good choice with the Transalp 💪😎. I hope that is everything okay with bike and the previous owner was a nice biker 😬.
Take care and ride safe 🙏☺️
