About:
Last few days of riding in Sikkim. I rode through West Sikkim, into South Sikkim and then through East Sikkim before making my way into West Bengal. A lot of riding, but bad weather and bad luck meant that I didn't get to see a lot of what I had hoped to.
The ride was fun nevertheless, and I'm certain that I will be going back to Sikkim someday.
My Route:
Pelling - Dentam - Singshore Bridge - Soreng - Jorethang - Melli - Tarey Bhir - Rangpo - Rongli - Aritar - Kalimpong

Really love your narration. It's got an easy pace and makes one realize that we just need to be out there and take it in as much as possible. Going to these beautiful places and meeting people there, interacting with them, it's so serene and lively. Really great.
Also good snaps and time lapse in the beginning. Kudos for this beautiful work and safe ride man. Cheers.
Thanks a lot, Chitraved. The slower pace allows you to absorb so much more as you travel.

Sitting here watching all your videos one more time 🤟
Cool footages. IMHO to Leave some part of touring place for next visit.
0:30+ scenery was awesome.... actually felt like heaven
:):)
WONDERFUL!!! Like always. You are definitely getting lots of blessings from heaven because you are feeding lots of hungry 12 hrs working frustrated souls with your amazing videos. Wondeeing what would your motovlog had been, in case if you didnt loose rest of the footages. Please be more careful next time, atleast for your viewers. So calm, so peaceful, you must be some traveller monk in some of your previous incarnation ☺. Keep going, this is only the begining, billion miles to go before you sleep.
It's a privilege to share all the experiences with all of you. Do keep watching :)
Nice vlog rohith. Continue to making this type of nice video. Thank. Best of luck for further journey. Happy journey.
Thank you, Panchal!
A traveler is not someone who only experiences the good side of the weather and the nature but someone who has seen every bit of it, who has experienced mist more than clear sky in those mountains..So nothing to be worried about my friend..
And Be safe in the northern parts of West Bengal as the Morcha Party are creating a lot of chaos..
Ride safe..Regards..☺☺
That's very true, Hirak. Managed to get through those parts safely. Thank you.
Rohit! Yet another great compilation from the auteur!.
Yes, rear brake heating up is a major issue with Thunderbird. It happened to me on several occasions. Just imagine what would happen while you're descending towards a sharp curve and if the brake fails :( I'm glad that you were able to descend down safe. However, as a work-around you just need to flush the brake fluid and have it replaced. I needn't tell you but just my 2 cents of advice - Always drop the gear and let it build some speed in order to go for another shift. At times you need to be a valentino Rossi at the corners :P
Ride hard, ride safe.
Yeah, it's a terrifying issue in fact. The brakes fail suddenly leaving you to figure out an alternate way to stop the bike. Can be very dangerous.The reality is that you can't be flushing brake fluid frequently while you are in the middle of nowhere, so that's a bit of a handicap.
Nice.....even though this part was a short one, but it did give a good insight about what you experienced during your last leg in Sikkim......Do keep us updated where you plan to go next......
I like watching your every blog....brings my inner peace out.......
I also have a TB500 and was not sure about its capabilities, but seeing you ride all across India, it is really a capable tourer.....
Take care.....drive safe......and I am anxiously waiting to watch your next vlog! Cheers!
Do watch the update video I posted a few weeks ago, it givves details of where all I went on the #tourof2017. Lots more videos coming. Thanks, Sujeet.
Thanks for sharing brother, still a good footage that you manage to show in this vlog. :)
Thank you!
vlog is super awesome.. Specially the very beginning part. that lovely heat touching landscape with clouds..
Ya that Cable bridge & Tarey Bhir was quite disappointing due to repair works & clouds covering the whole view respectively.. But riding to that place was itself a great joy.
Now i'm waiting for a vlog of an hour, when i can just sit, grab my pillow and tune with my television and watch your vlog with some popcorn in the bowl. you are too good bro..
keep vlogging.. God bless you bro... Still waiting for more.. Take care. Ride safe. 😎💙✌👊👍
Hahaha. Thanks alot, Deergh. Hope to get to work on a lot more videos once I'm in Chennai. Stay tuned :)
one of the finest Moto Vlogger
Felt like travelling with you experiencing all the highs and lows of the ride...keep riding bro! God bless :)
Glad to be able to share the journey with you.
Pleasure is mine brother. Btw my name is Deepak and I'm from Kerala :)
Ur every blog is mesmerizing . Even foggy whether you captured was , i think truly romantic. Sad part; loss of 80% of footage which You experienced but we could not. You are a gr8 cinematographer & of course a fantastic story teller. I wonder If U become a film Maker , it will be a wonder. Hats off to you Man !!!! Keep up ur fantastic passion.
Sad that I wasn't able to share those views with all of you. But, there's still a lot more content to come and I hope you will keep watching!
all ur videos on sikkim was fantastic and soo good ..liked it so much ... expecting a lot from u man....all the best...
Thanks a lot, Naveen!
it is worth watching your vlogs again and again
Thanks, Kunal!
Everything happens for gud☺️!! May b Sikkim inviting you to explore more at d ryt tym...Even 20% of ur content made us feel d pleasant journey through woods!!Luvd it Rohit❤️ Cheer up🙌
This problem is not just with the Thunderbird. Last year I was riding a Electra 500 in Ladakh, and was coming back from Pangong. The brakes made wierd noises when hot. In one steep decend, the rear brake jammed completely! I was at about 40 kmph, down hill, and with lots of gravel. Fishtailed and came to a stop at the very edge of the cliff! Horrible experience! The rest of the way I had to ride without a rear brake, did it somehow.
Sid I use engine braking when going down hill
Delta3068 Yeah, that is what I did. But it still isn't easy, there's lots of gravel and stones on the road. Engine braking still doesn't beat the rear brake.
Yeah, it's absolutely terrifying when this happens on the hills. It could potentially result in some serious accidents.
the break not working is not an issue actually, I last year went to ooty, while coming down I also faced the same issue, the locals told me to let the breaks cool down, and later on it was fine. I was riding TVS Apache RTR200 4V
loved your video as always.. i always wait for your video and it's totally worth to wait nd watch..
love you brother for these incredible videos. you make my day👍
Thanks for the support and for watching, Abhishek!
Boy you take your sweet time to upload videos but its worth it. Good choice of music, makes it engaging to get a feel of what you experienced. I miss my time in the hills.
Hahaha. It's been a challenge to edit while travelling. But hope to make more videos now. Thanks, Chandan!
Another awesome video and beautiful music... sad that you lost so much footage... but happy to see that bike handled well except for brakes which is natural in hilly areas... take care and safe ride. 😉
Yeah. Tragedy with the footage. Brakes are needed more in the hilly areas so it's very sad that they fail in such situations.
Toll Free Traveller absolutely true
Great job man! I wish you good luck and good weather for your next trips! In may Ill do a similar Sikhim tour (inspired by you)
mixture of thrill, suspense comedy, emotion like kind of a bollywood movie.. liked that awesome1👍👍
Hahaha. How are you, Amar?
Wow a beautiful one again from you.
Thank you.
U just don't ride for views r fame u ride for an experience and I love ur frndly nature with the local ppl where u visit lots of love from a biking brother to another biking brother
Thanks for the good vibes :)
Great channel bro, really inspiring and what a shame that u missed many things on your Sikkim trip. Do visit again and maybe we can ride together.👍
Thanks a lot. Definitely hope to come back some day.

hi bro..I have Thunderbird..and its 1 month old...my question is how do u deal with punctures..as u don't use tubeless tyres..don't u have always a headache of punchure things.??????????
Hey, the TB tyres have held up well so far. But punctures are always a possibility and will be a pain to deal with,
Its not a big deal losing the footage n stuffs.. as u said its all a part of the experience.. yet another soothing vlog of urs.. if possible upload vlogs weekly rohit anna.. ur vlogs r a treat to watch n relaxes our mind..

Thank you!
we are waiting for your next trip. must say ur representation is outstanding
Thanks, Saikat. Lots more content to come.
Awesome video as ever, and
Where are you going next sir?
THank you, Shovan. Do watch the update video that I had posted, that will give you details of all the places that I went to.
oh..its really bad that you missed on tareybir...its one of the most beautiful points with 360° view of the hills and the mountains with the confluence of river teesta and rangit at its base.
That's why I went there. But well, some other time, I guess.
Bro, The brake problem. It happens with every vehicle. When you use brakes continuously for long time it heats up and will not work. That's why always recommended to ride down steeps roads in first or second gear (in the same gear which you would use to climb the steep - that's what Driving School guys would say) and use brakes very less. One ghat in Ooty-Mazanagudi is infamous for accidents due to such brake failure.
Hi Traveller watched all 8 vlogs of yours today with out a break great really like it best wishes
Wow. Thanks, Jaiwant!
Nice video... I expected more but footage loss shd made it short!! Thalaiva u r born to travel... So much dedication n passion.. 🙏
Thanks a lot, Praveen. Was disappointing to lose so much footage.
I would have subscribed your channel for every time you uploaded a video!
Hope to ride with you soon to sikkim. I would love you to do a Monsoon ride in Kerala. That would be one hell of a vlog to watch!
And yeah, Cheers to carrom ✌🏼😊
Someday, maybe. Thanks a lot :)
9 minutes vdo felt like Mumbai Pune flight, Seat belt bandho n seat belt kholne se pahle v arrive at Destination... :-D😁😁😁
Want a bigger vlog, Sir.
Hahahaha.
Superb Ji.. Sikkimku oru trip plan panniyae aavanum nu ninaika vechitinga
Definitely!
good one once again..keep biking ..god bless
Thank you!
Hi sir,
Your video quality is excellent.Can you share which camera are you using ?
Thank you. I primarily use a GoPro. This one - amzn.to/2n6cYQY
You are not Vloger man(in a good sence)....You are a Rider a real Rider who does'nt care about the route where he is going or about the deadline that he has to reach by...most of the vlogers they only vlog everyday but not with very good quality or interesting kind of videos....but urs is exceptional, though I can understand the pain of losing footages but thank god that you managed to put together whatever was left...Keep Riding with a new desitination nd be safe!
Very kind of you, Sangram. Travel, whether by a motorcycle or otherwise, is more rewarding for me when done this way. Thanks for the encouragement.
Things you put on to ur videos are just amazing❤❤
Aah mayn! wish the video was longer. But gripping storytelling nevertheless. Wish you a safe ride back home. Julley!
Lots more videos to come :) Thank you.
no luxury hotel booking no guides no time limit thats the true travelling i learnt from u bro
mix with their native people say with them see the place like local its true traveling thats i learnt from u bro
Really glad to share these experiences with people like you, Rikky.
i was wondering whether you have a video that shows how you set up your gadgets, i mean your gorpo, cameria, audio etc,
Will make one in the future.
I loved each and every part of the vlog, a motovlogger who rides only for amazing views of our beautiful country..
Don't get me wrong, I think you're fortunate to get a little disappointment on your journey.. This is the thing which gets you going
I admire the passion and courage you have
May the force be with you
Keep smiling and exploring like always
✌️
-Abhisek Manna
THanks a lot, Abhisek. Adventures and misadventures are a part of the best trips. Just so long as we all get home safely its worth it!

Toll Free Traveller welcome , Waiting for your next vlog. Hope you reached home safely.
sir how many engine oil changes you have done during this trip for your bike and what engine oil you use for your bike
About 5. I was using Liquid Gun because it was difficult to find any other engine oil in the places where I was.
would you mind to plan a tour for Nepal or bhutan next year?
if yes then please allow me to join you in that trip.
Hope that happens! :)

Hahahaha.

Thanks for watching, Sudhanshu.
hello Bro first of all your videos inspires me a lot.i have some questions to ask 1) how much money spent on a 1000 km trip? 2)how many km you will cover in a day? and tell me some tips to control money wastage .because of some beginners like me doesn't know where to start.
Hey, I intend to make a video discussing these things after I've first made more travel content. Will cover these things in the future to help you not make mistakes that I made.
cooolll bhaiyaa
Brillant as always
Thank you
