Welcome back Johnny. Sounds like it was an awesome trip.
Did you get the screen sorted with a new plastic piece?

[Lonewolf]

Johnny, 11000km, that is one hell of a trip, now its time for me to read your write up on the other forum from start to finish. Congratulates, the GTR clearly is a grand tourer! . 




I'd like to challenge others, (they know who they are)    to do that on a ZZR.

Fixed the screen temperarly with 2 rubber washers.

The ride report is a little behind, i have just entered Greece in the report. My card reader for the ipad failed and i coul dnot do any pictures, so i will keep updates comming over the next days or weeks. HAve a busy scedule now in the first few weeks

My daughter have made a video from my riding in Istanbul. I dont think its clear in the video how bad it was but have a look if you wana see. If you go to Istanbul, leave your panniers at home!

[JohnnyTh]

Fixed. i forgot to make it public

Now you just need to make it playable on mobile devices like the iPad & iPhone.


And Stoketim you'll see I paid extra special attention and actually put this in the right thread!

[JohnnyTh]

[Ros]

right, buy yourself a pc.

Looks good Johnny. Congrats to Tea for the production too.
I liked your striptease at around 6 minutes. (that should get a few more viewers! <LOL>)
Istanbul looks a little less crazy that when I was there in 1996.
In 96 there were lots of Mercedes 220 diesel taxis, and the traffic often spilled onto the pavements.
Also a lot more smoke and pollution. From your video it looks quite nice now, but just as crowded.

Thanx Boomer, Tea is only 13 and new to video editing but know a lot more then me so why not let her do it. I tried to first but it was crap. Hers is better.

The striptease was needed as it was a wam day, nd boy is that GTR a hot bike. When tempraturs reached 40C i tried to keep my knees away from the bike.

Trafic in Istanbul was cracy, i dont think the video show how mad it was, but did not notice a lot og polution. Must be cleaner then what it was.

Not had much time to write anything but here is a pic from Albania.


Weather was not perfect the whole time
