    We have been on the Road since the beginning of December 2018. Started in Sydney and hoping to finish in London around September 2019. All we have are our 2 Suzuki DR650s. This is Episode 3 of our little adventure.
    Not too much riding in Timor - more fixing bikes and sorting out ferries. We also got time to hit up the local markets and experience some cave pools. Our first island in Indonesia isn't letting us down.
    Shout out to Sweetman 👍 if you like DR650's Check out his videos - / mrsweetman76

    Ur videos deserve more views. They are awesome. Why hasn't utube algorithm been favorable to this channel? Definitely one of better moto adventure channels on utube.

    a few years ago my friend spotted you guys while riding your bikes in Indonesia. He took a picture of your bikes and posted it on facebook, and i thought wow these guys are so cool doing long distance trip with motorbikes. It's funny because years later after i saw the pucture on fb, i watch your video and i think wait a minute the bikes look so familiar hahah and it's literally you all, the guy who was in my friend's picture.

    Not much to do in Kupang, I volunteered there for 6 months and the Crystal Cave and the swimming pigs are about the only tourist attraction. The night market does have good food tho!

    Those scenes of the night market in Kupang made my mouth water. I have so many memories of eating barbequed fish at night markets all over NTB and NTT. There is a restaurant in Kupang, the "Karang Mas" that is still operating. I first went there in 1970! I love Kupang and its citizens. Can't wait to get back and experience the smell of the smoke and the fish cooking. I long for those wsrm tropic nights.

      Just watched this again. You have no idea how much enjoyment I'm getting from your vids. Stuck in Australia for 26 months. Endless lockdowns. Still registering nearly 2000 Delta cases a day in Victoria, two freezing winters endured, the pleasure I get from seeing Indonesia, and particularly NTT, again from a motorcyclists perspective is immense. I've been riding between Bali/Lombok and West Timor yearly from 2008 to 2019. First on a Honda Vario and then on a KLX150 which I bought in 2013. Your filming and interactions with the locals bring it all back to me. I have vivid memories of Kupang in 1970. Electricity was limited, there was a severe water shortage too. Would you believe that the border between Potuguese Timor and Indonesia was a 7mt wide bridge across a dry creek bed with a red and white painted wooden sign that read "Mota'ain". It looks very different now, eh! Thanks for your vids. They are top shelf.

    Hi guys! I am also riding a DR650 in South Korea. My DR is also equipped with the same Arcevis large-capacity fuel tank, but there is friction between the corner of the oil cooler cooling fin and the inside of the fuel tank. Was your DR okay? Problems may also be found among other users. I hope you check too. It's difficult if the fuel tank has a hole while traveling.

      Townsville DnM - we are planning on doing 2 different gear videos very soon. One will just be a breakdown of the riding and protective gear we use, and the other will be on what we packed for our RTW trip. But if there is anything in particular you want to know about let us know
