nice idea.
Some nice modifications to your bike, eg extra fuel tanks and mirrors. I was in India two years ago and I wish I hired a Himalaya as there were very many of them the streets. I look forward to your journeys.
Kind regards and be safe!

yea actually it's an amazing machine and very basic.
sometimes when you breakdown in middle of nowhere you can find any mechanic and they will be able to fix it.

It is very easy. There is a function in YouTube to add subtitles. I use it all the time.
It is very interesting to see how living and riding a motorbike is, in another part of the world.

I am looking forward to it. It is interesting to see that the environment where you ride is so completely different from where I ride in the Netherlands (and the rest of Europe again after corona)
I translate my videos from Dutch to English or from English to Dutch manualy in the YouTube tool and if you are used to it is is not very difficult but it takes a lot of time so a translation agency is a good idea :-)
Automatic translation from Dutch to English and the other way around is officialy supported in YouTube but I tried it once and correcting the errors was more work dan doing it all manualy.

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
