Enfield,overland,big problem,austria,need HELP
 
Still busy doing my very nice illegal trip on a india enfield back to the netherlands. Still having big problems with the bike and need help.... FAST. My rattling sound is still very nice in the engine(since 3000km). At the moment I'm in hungary and hoping to bordercross to Austria tomorrow. Still no insurance and green card so going to be fun again.

But okey. either my big end bearing or my bearings on clutchside are leaving the engine. Think it's the big end because if you rev the engine with load or going up a mountain the sound is getting worse.

Try to make it to Zell am See where I can stay cheaply. Anyone knows a good and cheap enfield mechanic nearby to help me out.

hope someone can help me, still a few thousand km's back to netherlands

If I were in your situation, I would drive to a truckstop and ask Dutch (or Belgian) truckdrivers to take you back home to the Netherlands. As soon as you are within the EU borders, the paperwork should be no problem anymore.
It's worth a try.

Good luck

thanks for your idea but i was just a lucky bastard i think. no papercheck at the border while all cars where checked for papers and luggage. Just smile and hit the throttle

My bearings are less rattling than before. Im in germany and hoping to reach netherlands in 2 days. Lets just hope the bearings stay in place
