The rain on Borneo can be a different animal, coming from Tornado Alley in the U.S. I thought I was prepared, but they still surprised me. It is beautiful when you are under cover, though. Also the ingenuity, even in tiny villages, always impresses me. You can get most things fixed for pennies on the dollar.
Yes, I am a Malaysian from KL and USD20 to fix your iPhone 7 for 3 hours spare parts and labour is cheap. I am also using iPhone 7. Fair price should be RM150-200, USD40-50 depending on what part they changed. Did you witness the Royal Wedding where the son of Sultan Brunei got married? It’s a very grand 10 days affair. 🏍️💨
Revenge of the Rain! Fry that phone. Next week, episode two. We will find out how much fish (Koi) is in the KTM genes. Will they swim or will they sink! That is what everyone wants to know. As always, a great video of a new place and the various challenges you face and overcome. Beautiful background music and never overwhelming in volume as too many other video makers have. Excellent McGyver work on the rear rack Tim! And I wondered if you had a cheap back-up phone for navigation. I've never bought a dedicated GPS like a Garmin because I use an older cheap phone for nav work. Losing or killing a $20 phone doesn't hurt and keeping the good phone safely tucked away just makes sense to me. Sweating in the heat wearing rain gear sounds miserable but so is getting soaked and freezing! I'm quite comfortable here watching your video! Thanks for sharing the adventure with us.
Thanks for tuning in and we’re so glad that you’re enjoying the ride along with us! I’m quite pleased with the rear rack 😂 and I think it may hold up! And the old phone is still kicking it! We can’t wait to share everything we’ve been up to! We want to release 2 videos a week but there have been too many adventures to stop and catch up properly! Thanks for all of the good vibes 😎!
Welcome to Lawas though probably by the time i saw this video you guys may be already on your way to Sabah. Thank you for visiting Lawas..i wish i could have meet you guys. Keep the video rolling. Ride safe.
Thank you so much! We had such a fantastic time in Lawas and are loving our ride through Borneo! Thank you for the kind words and for riding along with us as we explore such a beautiful part of the world!

Hey Tim, maybe there should've been a third thing on your shopping list. 1 - phone fix; 2 - a rack for the back; and 3 - A PAPER MAP!!!!!! I understand, that being children of the tech age a paper map can be scary (folding them is difficult), but they don't need charging, laminated maps are water proof and they give a bigger and more detailed picture of where you're going. Just a thought!
😂 trying to find street names is nearly impossible. But we always can pull over and just ask where the nearest big city is and be pointed in the right direction. But trying to find a specific hotel using a paper map would be nearly impossible.
There is a very simple hack to unsmelly smelly boots: Salt water! Bacteria make the stinking substances. Most of the bacteria can't handle salt, so washing your boouts and then rinsing them with salty water, ocean water salt level is perfect, is a good measure! With this method, I managed to unstink several pairs of sneakers that had taken on really bad smells. With leather boots, a good rub with leather grease will be due after that, but that should be it.
Hey folks. Usually the iPhone will shut down its charging port if humidity is detected. Turn it off. Use some sort of gentle heat source ou a hair dryer held a bit away from it. Once it dries out, it resumes charging. I find the if you get some pretstick or even chewing gum. Press it around the cable into the port to make it water tight. So even if water penetrates the case, it still doesn’t get into the charging port. You could also get a dedicated weather proof gps. I use the the bmw navigator 6 which is essentially a Garmin. I do use my phone to find places or gas stations or whatever without touching my main navigation path set in the gps. If it rains, my phone is taken off the Xgrip holder and kept protected.
Good tips! Thank you! We definitely prefer the old phones rather than Garmins and the like. They are a lot cheaper, and have multiple uses. This was the first time it crapped out on us, and with your advice and tips, hopefully the last! Thanks again!
the long bridge you intended to take is supposed to bypass Limbang so I think you are still on track with your plan to take 2 different routes going and coming.
You guys are awesome, plus Marisa can find the good in any situation. I use zip ties just like you Tim, and I don’t cut them off either. Mostly cause I can’t locate my diagonal pliers😅🦝
😂 and if you don’t cut them down, you can use a tiny flathead screwdriver to take them off and reuse them! And I hate cutting myself on the sharp little plastic edges after I snip them off. I somehow always manage to make them into small little scalpel knives 😂.
Hey guys , If you're ever down in Malacca , Malaysia , do let me know and I can show you guys around and introduce you to my dad since he himself is a rider and you guys love to ride too ! I'm sure he'll be thrilled to bring you guys riding though back roads and mountains Etc and also go local food hunting , I can leave my email or contact if you want 🔥🌹

Tidak tepat sama sekali. Jangan asyik nak menyalahkan orang lain. Sabah Sarawak perlu ubah cara hidup. Kurangkan arak.. didik anak ketahap yg tinggi . Bukan kerja kerajaan je target. Terlalu merasakan mangsa keadaan .. banyak potensi di luar untuk di terokai.. berani kan diri.. kata pemburu kepala? Ubah ke arah pemburu kerja CEO .. boss besar.. bukan polis tentera dan guru. Yang paling penting baca juga quran supaya untuk pengetahuan agama lain. Sarawakian terkenal dgn kurangnya pengetahuan agama lain selain kristian. Ego nk belajar takut di convert.. belajar jer pun .. buat research bila Bday jesus.selebihnya buang perasaan asyik memyalahkan orang lain kenapa maju kalau kamu asyik minum kalah orang putih.
@@2UpAndOverloadedthis indonesian guy always appear in every channel that has malaysia in it… some of indonesian still live by the motto of their former president sukarno’s ganyang malaysia bk in the 60’s (war campaign known as konfrontasi)… bk then he sent indonesian army into sarawak to launch attack on malaysian soil… but was foiled by the british .. aussie.. new zealander n sarawak rangers… they attacked singapore also by bombing macdonald house… few died… the bombers were caught n executed…. sad thing is indonesian government still recognised the two bombers as their heroes n named two of their of warships their names…. indonesia nd to round up n prison the followers of sukarno ideology… till now we r very cautious with them… racial tension against chinese community was common there till 1998…

20 bucks to fix the phone in 3 hours is impressive.
Not a bad deal at all!

Nice rack Tim "MacGyver" Notier.
I think that you should send your design to Dynamic for them to commercialize for you!
Stay awesome,
TC
🤣 I think their design team might not be as impressed as you 🤣
But thanks for the good vibes!
@@2UpAndOverloaded lol
Hahahaha... Mr DIY is a hooked store's... once you're in, everything you want to buy...
😂 absolutely 💯
Nice..
Thanks! It’s been quite the adventure!
So, only spending $20 on phone repair you definately have money left over for a good backup, Marisa's carrot on a stick 🙈🤣.
😂 waterproof and no charging required 😝
Maybe you should’ve put pontoons on the bike lol
🤣 That's our next upgrade!

How big a difference do you feel in the elements on a small bike compared to a bigger one? I sure have!
The lack of any real windshield is the major difference! I no longer have a shield to block any of the rain!
Dedicated gps used by itchy boots. Rain - no issue

Maps work
