- Starting from Jausiers I will be taking you all the way to the top of the Col de la Bonette / Cime de la Bonette. This is an almost 24 km ride from north to south with an altitude change of almost 1.600 m. This is the full length onboard experience on a KTM 1290 Super Adventure S.
Col de la Bonette is a high mountain pass at a an elevation of 2.715m (8,907ft) above the sea level, located in the French Alps - to get to the very top you have to take the Cime de la Bonette wich brings you to an elevation of 2.802m (9,193ft) above sea level.
It is situated within the Mercantour National Park on the border of the departments of Alpes-Maritimes and Alpes-de-Haute-Provence.

Great video! Loved to see the full track of the Col de la Bonnette, that I rode in september 2014. Brings back good memories!
Thank you very much - this pass is definitly special and I have always included it when I am in the area so to speak ;-)
Wow as much as I enjoy a spirited ride I couldn't keep with you guys. Nonetheless, a cracking road and very well ridden. As normal the video is beautifully produced - well done. Thank you for posting and stay safe.
Thank you for the nice comment Gordon. Glad you like it ;-)
Pure fun ! Thanks for the video
Thank you for watching ;-)
I like the passes that have restaurants at the top! And a shack to buy a decal!
yeah - this pass is more like taking a selfie in front of the pass sign and having a snickers bar that you have to bring yourself 😂
amazing ride! Wish we had roads like that in Sweden! Great video my friend!
Thank you Dark Visor! that is why you should plan to visit - the French Alps are just amazing 😎
@@MotoVibes Some time in the future I hope to! =)
This is my favourite channel on TH-cam. Can’t wait for this damn pandemic to come to an end, so we can travel safely again.
Thank you for the kind words - I am with you on the pandemic situation. I hoping things will improve as weather gets better and people are getting vaccinated. Unfortunately, Germany is very fast with that at the moment.
Mal wieder ...tippitoppo ...gerade zu dieser kalten Jahreszeit ...eine Augenweide ...danke für die tolle Unterhaltung ...wa ...grüße
Vielen Dank - dafür war es gedacht - für alle Biker die im Winter Sehnsucht nach schönen Strecken haben 😎
Nice ride! I'm a little surprised to see not one sheep on the road. I rode the Bonette three times, and every time I had to stop somewhere in the middle to let a herd pass. But then again, the traffic was much less dense. I did it with a BMW R1200RT, a KTM 1190 Adventure and a KTM 790 Adventure. That last ons was the most pleasant.
Thank you very much. Difference is that we sent a memo out to all sheep to stay put during our ride up 😂
Is it 'Thomas'? In the grey jacket,he looks into the hairpin,bike follows his eyes....he gets tighter lines..pleasure to watch.🏍🇮🇪
Yes - it is. We have done the past 3 trip together - cheers
we have a few similar roads in NZ, minus the elevation lol. that is a stunning ride!
I still would like to see them some day 😎 cheers mate!
Great Col, and even better road. Tight, narrow in places but good fun. Was there back in September. We stopped at Halte 2000 halfway up for lunch. Great cafe considering they are operating completely off grid.
I am sure there was a lot less traffic too - we were there in August. Beautiful scenery and amazing road 😎
MotoVibes Halte 2000 is at 8:42 on the right. Easily missed. Absolutely amazing food.
In regards how busy it was, I would say probably less than August (EU holiday season) but still busy enough for mid September.
@@ev8301 Thank you for the cafe tip - I will keep that in mind for next time ;-)
Ça va la montée est plutôt cool 😁 j’adore ce col même si c’est plus compliqué aujourd’hui de rouler sur cette route 😩✌️
Fantastic road - as so many others in the French Alps - great place to ride a motorcycle! ;-)
Wawooo wawooo so superb video
Amazing Ride superb atmosphere nice scenic places keep uploading my dear friend.... 👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much - there is a little more coming soon 😎
@@MotoVibes I shall wait for upcoming video....👍👍👍
Amazing very well filmed and edited, very useful for spotting my next rides !
Thank you- glad it’s helpful 😎
Well done my friend Very nice route for fast driving in a provincial network...I would like to do it with you
Thank you very much- need to go back there someday 😉
Nice and attractive video, sometimes just the engine sound.makes everything
Thank you very much 👍😎
Nice video, again. Pity it's not closed to traffic like Pikes Peak 😁. It's great to ride though. If I remember correctly just past that point a simple sign pointing into the distance simply says 'Nice'.
😂😎 Follow the sign to go to Nice - that's it 😜 The scenery does remind a bit of Pikes Peak - not that I have had the chance to ride Pikes Peak yet but from the footage I have seen. Well - one of these days ...
good road to ride views are good to.
Thank you Adrian! We rode this road on the way back from the other side too 😉
Hello mate,
which month you visited the la bonette? Thanks a lot
I went there many times - I think this video is from mid August 😉
Amazing ! Do you know if Col de Bonette along with Cold de l'lseran, Col d'lzoard, and Col de Vars on the Grand Alps route?
I guess I'll be watching a lot of your channel as I research my Alps trip. Thanks. Kam
Hey Kam - I think they are on the route de grande Alpes - if not they are easy to connect if you plan your tour. I have a tour package "Ultimate France" that has the full route and GPX for a unforgettable West Alps experience at motovibes.de - its not for free but it is hours worth of research ;-)
@@MotoVibes I was looking to do a guided tour, but your website looks interesting . Have to keep it in mind. I understand the gpx files and value. I spend months and hours creating my own gpx files for local U.S.A. trips. What's in your road book? Thanks for into. I'll Bookmark your site. THANKS. Kam
@@greatfallskam The roadbook for the Ultimate France Tour is a print-out of the different day rides. I usually bring a paper copy of the entire trip so its easier to follow where the tour takes me. Also, it includes hotel recommendations. The later tours - like the Norway Tour - have detailed information on the top highlights of the trip with photos and text. So the content depends a bit on what I thought was important to include besides just doing the GPX file. cheers, Oliver
@@MotoVibes Awesome ! Will keep in mind and share info with friends. If your information ( website ) isn't on ADVrider forum, I am happy to post it in one of the Euro tour threads; with your approval. Thanks. Kam
Das ist mein absoluter Favorit der bislang gefahrenen Pässe. Ich war damals leider so derart verzaubert und im Kurvenrausch, dass ich vergessen/ignoriert habe um anzuhalten und die GoPro zu montieren und zu starten. Wenn man mal richtig entspannt ohne High Speed kilometerweit endlose Passagen surfen möchte, ist man dort richtig. Danke fürs Festhalten in Bild und Ton.
Der Pass ist auch bei mir ganz vorne mit dabei - finde die Landschaft faszinierend und er ist super zu fahren. Wir sind den Pass auf dieser Tour auch noch aus der anderen Richtung gefahren ;-)
@@MotoVibes gemächlich runter vom Bonette hatte ich die Kamera zwar angemacht, aber leider brutale Windgeräusche drauf. Das kannst Du entschieden besser...
th-cam.com/video/nBnWA1ZDVpk/w-d-xo.html
@@instrukta Ja der Wind ist echt ein Thema bei diesen Kameras - ich nutze mittlerweile ein externes Mikro. Ich sitze gerade an einem Video bei dem ich mein Video und Sound Setup vorstelle. Ich hoffe es wird fertig bis zum Ende der nächste Woche. Vielleicht sind ja ein bei nützliche Tipps dabei ;-)
wow, i really have to ride that one too! Is your slide/crash still bothering you, or are you fully confident again?
it is absolutely worth it - have done this ride a few times now and it never gets old ;-) I would say I am at full confidence level again but I do make sure I stay focussed ALL the time ;-)
Sehr schönes Video, erinnert ja schon ein bisschen an den Schaaf. Insbesondere das "Bing" Aber wie heißt es immer? Lieber gut kopieren als schlecht selbst machen. Die Texteinblendungen lockern das ganze gut auf, gerne beibehalten.
Hoffentlich schaff ich es nächstes Jahr endlich meine 990 SM-T mal durch die Westalpen zu scheuchen :)
Natürlich kenne ich die Schaaf Videos - schaue ich auch gerne - der Bing ist ganz praktisch - allerdings bei weniger Text - hier war es zu viel. Fokus beim Schaaf liegt ja eher auf den Testfahrten mit verschiedenen Bikes - ich möchte Euch schöne Strecken zeigen - zur Erinnerung oder als Motivation mal selbst hinzufahren. Die Westalpen sind mit den Dolomiten die absoluten Highlights der Alpen - da sie fahrerisch spannend sind und super schöne Aussichten bieten.
Col video... did you also ride down from the summit in the opposite direction? Around what time of the day did you ride, looks quite crowded at the top😊
I did. This is the video of it 😉 th-cam.com/video/eys2s6_WwGk/w-d-xo.html not sure what time of the day this was. It has been too long. I was just there again 2 days ago
Nice vidéo ! what is the model of the motorbike that passes you at 16:29?
Thank you very much- you mean the motorcycle that passing 2 bikes from us? No idea I am afraid 😬
@@MotoVibes I think it's a Multistrada, right?
The exhaust is the arrow one? My ktm doesn't pop that much when lowering gears or using engine brake and i have the same exhaust i think
I have an Akrapovic muffler on this bike ;-)
You drive hard, agresiv or fast👍👍 what is your aprox fuel economy on 100km, on alps??
Honestly - I do not really keep track of fuel consumption but I can give you an estimate - on roads like this no less than 6 liters/100 km - between 6-7 liters/100 km I would say. Not too bad - the bike takes a lot of fuel on the race track or at high speeds on the Autobahn - you can get the consumption to more than 10 liters/ 100 km ;-)
did you ever go to Turkey ? not best roads but nice place to full throttle :D
Not yet but I hope that I will some day 😊
Just a friendly advise... change the bling sound everytime you write a massage on the screen. I keep checking my phone everytime :-P makes me miss out on some of the action :-D haha
Thomas Hansen 😂 I have used different sounds in the past Videos - These ones kind of stuck. If not used something it is weird too somehow 😉
what is your braking technique while tackling such corners at the mountains ? also, what do u suggest how one must play around with the throttle, gears and brakes in order to be safe yet enjoy around the corners ? and how do you tackle if u find any sand or gravel (something slippery) around the corner ? please share this information from your experience of riding as i can see you are pretty good around the corners. thanks in advance :-)
There are certainly different techniques to corner - typically I trail brake (staying on the brake after entering the corner with slow release until the apex of the turn) into the turn while downshifting 1-2 gears while I am on the brake (super easy with the quick shifter). I am in the right gear before I enter the turn. Brake is gradually released by the time I get to the apex and throttle is gradually increased as the bike leans up again and as I exit the corner.
Normally the "safer" way (how you get taught in riding school or riding safety training) would be to complete braking and downshifting before entering - meaning entering the turn with the "right speed". You enter the turn on a little bit of throttle to the apex and then gradually increase the throttle past the apex.
Btw - I am only using the front brake - the KTM has a combined ABS braking system - so add a little bit of rear brake plus you have the engine braking to slow down the rear wheel a bit.
Trail braking has its place in road riding (is more common on the race track). Aside from the obvious of faster cornering (more pressure on the front, changing of bike's steering geometry, etc.) I find it to be safer for road riding as I am on the brakes to the point where I can usually see the exit of the turn - if I need to slow down more or react fast I am already on the brakes - if that happends to be dirt or gravel you need to reduce lean angel before applying the brakes otherwise you risk crashing (even with the cornering ABS of the KTM). To not get suprised by dirt on the road you need "scan" the surface as far as possible with your eyes and adjust you line accordingly while keeping your sight locked on the exit of the turn. Not sure how to better describe it ;-)
Lots of text - if you would like to learn this I would recommend doing a training on the race track - it is a safe environment and the instructors can give you practical tips throughout the day. I hope this helps- cheers!
@@MotoVibes thank you so much for such a detailed explanation, i agree with all your points and appreciate the effort of explaining everything about cornering in so much detail from your own experience of riding. Thanks a lot! 👍🏻
MV fährt meinen absoluten Lieblingspass in den Seealpen. Da fahre ich doch gerne mit...Da juckt‘s einen sich dran zu hängen..🤟
Vielleicht wird das ja mal was - mit dem Zusammen fahren ;-) Die Cols auf der Route der Grandes Alps sind schon der Hammer - vom Fahren und der tollen Aussicht.
Das wäre aber schon ein heftiger Zufall....🤟
It may not be the actual highest road in Europe but it is the highest pass that the Tour de France peleton can ride across.
That is right. There is a long list of roads higher than this one. 😉
great video , the only thing wrong with that road is that there are cars on it ..
They are only there to make passing a bit more fun 😂
Belle vidéo 👍 j’aimerais bien rouler avec toi 🤔✌️
merci ;-)
Geile Strecke👍🏽
Asphaltqualität Südfrankreichmässig?
Vielen Dank! Asphalt ist sehr griffig wenn trocken - auf Bitumen muss man achten - da kann es dann schon mal deutlich weniger Grip geben. Mehr Grip geht immer - Sardinien zum Beispiel - das ist Rennstreckenniveau ;-)
Peu de gens savent que la limitation de vitesse sur cette route et jusqu'au col est de 50km/h.
Few people know that the speed limit on this road and up to the pass is 50km/h.
Nur wenige wissen, dass die Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung auf dieser Straße und bis zum Pass 50km/h beträgt.
Weinig mensen weten dat de maximumsnelheid op deze weg en tot aan de pas 50 km/u is.
I did not know it was limited to 50 km/h 😐
@@MotoVibes Si. Il y a des panneau au début du col car il y a régulièrement des motos qui percutent des cyclistes.
Yes, there are. There are signs at the beginning of the pass because motorbikes regularly hit cyclists.
Cet été, j'y vais avec ma V85TT.
This summer I'm going with my V85TT
Dude! You had me in tears! That scooter with the topcase made you two look like you left all your ponies in Berlin...Hä? All 300 of them....But probably you werde studying the map, or the view...or sinking about se krash.....hahaha, no serious, thouroughly enjoying your videos, they are weapon grade, you should approve them by the yankee FDA for clinical antidepressant for motorcyclist...hehehe...little extra income...
😂👍 we were just cruising up the hill enjoying the view that is all 😎
Watched the race, missed the scenic views... round 2!
😂
2:20 Überholen trotz Gegenverkehr. Ganz toll gemacht!
Gegenverkehr wo? Von Beruf Verkehrserzieher?
Hi. I've subscribed to your chanel.recently and enjoyed watching most of your very good videos.
I am planning a trip to the alps for the first time in June. After watching and studying your footage.. please tell Thomas to get a move on on his 1190))) , please can you advise me whether to do Italy and Switzerland or france and switzerland and which will I get the most from to suit me best. From.what I see it is hard to choose. And are the french passes as incredible as the dolomites? I am a healthy 55 year old))) I will be researching camp sites and accommodation. I think I can only manage 2 countries as I will only have a 7 day stay.. keep the good vids coming.. their great to watch.
Thank you for your assistance
Kind regards from uk
Peter
Peter - I am happy to read about your touring plans in the summer. Like you already wrote it would be good to focus on either Italy/Switzerland or Switzerland/France. If I had to choose I would pick Italy/Switzerland and then do France/Switzerland another time - even though I am a huge fan of both regions the Italy/Switzerland will give you a higher density of great roads to travel and will give you a huge variety of scenery. If the start and endpoint of your journey is not the same you could do France, Italy, Switzerland and Austria in 7 days easily. Also, you could consider not to go camping - it would save time for setting up camp that you could use for riding - accomodation can be quite affordable in the Alps - also riding the roads is more enjoyable with a lighter bike and it is easier to spend every night at a different place which would allow you to cover more ground. It really depends how you like to travel - you could just go with 2-3 places to stay, do 2 countries and 300 km day trips and leave time to do some sightseeing. Or you are crazy like me and prebook every place, spend the night at a different place every night, go 450+km a day and ride 10-12 hours a day - with that kind of milage you could do the entire Alps in 7 days (and save the sightseeing for some other time 😂)
Pass me an email if you would like to get some GPX data of my Alps trips - cheers
@@MotoVibes thank you very much for taking the time to reply to.my message, most kind. I am happy to receive your advice and tips about affordable accommodation and Italy/switzerland for my first trip to these incredible regions of the alps. I am already making my initial plans for my trip and buying my essentials. I have been inspired by you to spend 1 day in Vosages region on the way down through france to break up the journey.
I ride at a good pace like yourself but want to take time to stop and enjoy and absorb the beauty of these incredible places.alpnf the way as you will appreciate this.
I haven't done anything this awesome for a long time, so I am already filling my heart with excite😊😊.
Here is my email as you have asked for it.... dpj1603@yahoo.com for gpx
I will appreciate any further help and advice you can give..
My wifes aunties live in Germany.. another great country)))
Many thanks
Kind regards
Peter
@@peterjones246 Peter - check your inbox - I hope that will be useful to you. The data came straight out of Garmin Basecamp and includes all the rides, accomodation etc.
Nothing wrong with taking your time. The day rides I planned for the August trip were between 380-420 km and a bit too long in hindsight. The hot weather and dehydration led to concentration loss at times - there were incidents were we both missed a turn and went into the gravel next to the road - not something that usually happends to me ;-) I may upload that video some day.
@@MotoVibes Oliver, thank you very much. I have replied to you via email.
I've decided to extend my tour to 9 days, so will have chance to spend a couple of days in France too..)) so I will try the Col du Galibier and col de la bonette etc.. AWESOME..!! THANK YOU
@@peterjones246 excellent choice - you will have a great time - 9 days is enough to see most of the main roads and places - I am very excited for you! ;-)
What Is thé caméra do you use ?
I am using a Sony FDR X3000 for all my helmet views. It still holds up really well even to the current line up of GoPros.
MotoVibes the pictures are stable and quality bravo!
@@CoursNatationcom considering the camera is now 3 years old it is still doing a good job. I am hoping for the successor of this camera
hi, sehr mega geile landschaft, hat was ganz eigenes, wird sicher auch mal ne maßnahme nach frankreich, schöner kerniger sound dein bike, wie fährst du um die spitzkehren? im 1. gang oder bei dem hubraum schön im 2. rumrollen...??? also wieder mal danke fürs mitnehmen und eine schöne adventszeit... Gruß Rico
Vielen Dank Rico - besonders oberhalb der Baumgrenze finde ich diese Landschaft super schön - die Alpen sind schon sehr abwechslungsreich. Ich fahre eigentlich 99% im 2. Gang um die Kehren. Beim Stelvio hab ich dann auch mal den 1. Gang benutzt an einigen wenigen Spitzkehren.
Super vidéo..... en francais serai le top !!!
Thank you very much ;-)
wie auf der Flucht.
21:25 Präpotenz und Egoismus at its best.
Dein Buddy in Front hatte wohl einen schlechten Tag, oder? Den Schrankkoffer vor euch hätte ich schon früher weggeschnupft...
manchmal können wir auch ganz "civil" hinterher fahren 😂
Sehr schöner Clip. Das war meine Auffahrt 2018. Leider ist die Bildqualität nicht die Beste. Habe wenig Erfahrung mit der GoPro
th-cam.com/video/kNejgis1cVI/w-d-xo.html
Vielen Dank! Kleiner Tipp - probiere mal die GoPro am Helm zu montieren. Diese Halterung ist sehr günstig und gut um das mal auszuprobieren
amzn.to/36qVd14
Du bekommst so deutlich mehr Ruhe in Deine Aufnahmen (selbst älteren GoPros ohne gut Bildstabilisierung) und die Perpektive rückt etwas weiter nach oben für einen realistischeren Onboard View.
Geiles Video... nur das Bing bei der Texteinblendung versaut alles !!!
Ja - da hast Du recht - bisschen viel Bing in diesem Video - beim nächsten gibt es weniger Text oder weniger Bing 😬
Luxsusproblem :-) welche Steigerung gibt es dann noch :-) th-cam.com/video/ngPLhiSq4iI/w-d-xo.html
Nicht mehr sooo viele ;-)
Grüßt du die anderen Biker gar nicht? 😝
Schon wieder ertappt - eigentlich grüße ich Biker sogar wenn ich nicht auf dem Bike sitze aber manchmal ist das konzentrieren aufs Fahren dann doch wichtiger - der Crash war da gerade ein paar Tage her 😂
Magnifique images. J'ai moi même fait cette montée et c'est trop beau.
th-cam.com/video/F0wjVN88D_E/w-d-xo.html
Ehrlich? Ich habs probiert, aber ich kann mir das nicht ansehen. Die Einblendungen nerven, das Bling...Blong nervt, das Motorengeräusch nervt, das (der?) Windschild (heißt das so?) nervt.
Man kann das auch ruhiger haben, wenn man da mit dem Rennrad hoch fährt. Das Einzige, was dann nervt, sind Motorräder, die von hinten kommend knapp überholen. Sorry, zwei Welten und kaum gemeinsame Basis. Ja, ich habe auch den (alten) Einser Führerschein, aber ich kenne einige Leute, die - vom Motorrad kommend - mit dem Rennradfahren begonnen haben, und ihr Motorrad abgemeldet und verkauft haben, weil sie irgendwann merkten, dass sie es kaum noch benutzten...
Ich kenne auch enige Leute die sich wieder stärker aufs Fahrrad konzentrieren oder halt beides machen. Es ist Platz genug für alle (wenn man sich den Platz lässt). Die Erfahrung solch eine Strecke mit reiner Muskelkraft hoch zu fahren ist bestimmt der Hammer. Ich ziehe meinen Hut vor solch einer Leistung. Mir fehlt da ein bisschen die Power ;-) Live and let live - cheers!
I don‘t like your tailgating - pass him or keep more distance. For the driver in front of you it‘s extremely annyoing, believe me
Achim - the guy in front of me is my riding buddy - it is not annyoing him at all - believe me 😉
MotoVibes - Ok fine, but you never know what happens, so keeping distance is simply a safety fact.
Weil Leute wie Ihr konsequent jegliche Verkehrsregeln missachtet, werden immer mehr Straßen für Motorräder gesperrt werden. Das ist sehr schade.
Alle, die Euch hier bejubeln und auch mal dort fahren wollen: Bitte mal kurz denken! Über 100 in 50er Bereichen - unglaublich leichtsinnig.
And one day boys, you are not lucky enough.... and we other bikers will pay higher insurances...
Don’t be a dick
