Hi all. Feel free to check out my video from last month's solo motorbiking journey (in 2 parts at the above link). It was my maiden voyage through Isaan and Laos and I absolutely loved it.

Kevin Fairburn (Sydney, AUS)

PS: The best bike I rented the whole trip was from Jim Barbush, owner of Remote Asia Travel just over the border from Nong Khai (+856 20238 5562 Vientiane Laos). Motorbike Rental is his specialty and he is pretty maticulous with the upkeep of his fleet of bikes. My XR250 was a very reliable and modern machine. Highly recommended.

When in Udon Thani check out Lek Car and Bike rental. Hired a nice Honda Steed 400 for a bit of cruising down to Khon Khan and beyond.
 
Hi kevin, great videos mate, I really enjoyed them.

I am planning a similar trip in the new year, so I would like to ask a couple of quick questions: did you hire bikes in vietnam or purchase? Also did you try and cross any borders with the Vina motos?

Thanks for the advice mate.

Ray, yes he did, he's on something similar to his Avatar picture :oops: only difference instead of two wheels it uses two 'water screws'....... :lol: ....and he must lovvvvve it !!!! Maybe the ship is easier to repair than his carrier back home in Ubon........ :mrgreen:
