    Not a great road or great bike for riding quickly on, but fun nevertheless.
    There's always something dangerous happening on this road. Seen quite a few accidents on this road on my previous visits. This time was no exception.

    you should go for the FZ16. That's much better than these new models. They have throttle response and are very comfortable at handling. I had an FZ16. I also rode the other models but nothing like the FZ16.

    seen your post touring to Nepal n they r great, but in near future is there any plan for you to ride from countries to countries? Like fr e.g., England to Germany or maybe even to Nepal.

    duke was good or fzs in your opinion

    • @benniehitchcock
      @benniehitchcock  8 років тому

      +Sagar Chaudhary No contest for me. Duke wins every time. For me, the FZS tries too hard to look and feel like a big bike. But behind all the fake plastic panels is just a fairly ordinary 150cc bike. The Duke has a lot of stuff that's just for show too, but it has the performance to back up its looks. Not really fair to compare them anyway as they are totally different bikes and quite far apart price wise. I think if I was to have one to use everyday in Nepal, I'd consider a 180 Apache though. A good honest bike that doesn't try to be something it isn't.

    • @benniehitchcock
      @benniehitchcock  8 років тому

      find me a good one in pokhara for hire and I will! I have ridden an fz in near new condition. I'm still not a big fan.

      +Bennie Hitchcock I have one but im in kathmandu.....which bike you reckon in 150cc segment..

    • @benniehitchcock
      @benniehitchcock  8 років тому

      +Nitesh Shakya I like the Apache 160. More comfortable, handles better and feels a little more quality overall I reckon.

    bennie ...whats your mic setup?

    • @benniehitchcock
      @benniehitchcock  8 років тому

      +MOTO RIZ I use a Drift Ghost camera and use the optional external mic. I have it in my helmet. Previous videos were a bit noisy, but in this vid, I turned down the mic sensitivity and it seemed to turn out ok.
