Yamaha Tenere to Magadan
This is the hotel that I found for tonight. The price is 8 euro and I'm gonna tell you everything
about it. I'm gonna show you the room as well but let me first tell you what I have done with tires
and what kind of logistics I need to make to continue traveling. You can see where my motorcycle
is parked. Safe location. The whole area is guarded and also has security cameras.
So now see I already changed the front tire. I have this meters 09. I changed it yesterday in
Novosibirsk and I believe that the front will last around 15 000 kilometers. Exactly what I need
because I had this tire before and it lasted 15 000 kilometers. And this is also Dakar version
with a yellow strip which means that it will last even more. And I understand that I compromised a
bit the traction but I have no other options. I also have the rear but the rear is a normal
version not Dakar and I did not change it yet. At the moment I am still with the Dakar version of
meters 07 and it still has I don't know a couple of millimeters and I hope I hope that it will last
until Chita. Chita is a town around 3 000 kilometers away from the place I am at the moment
and what I have done actually I shipped the rear tire to Chita. I have a contact person over there
and I shipped the tire today to Chita and I'm gonna change it when I get there. So let me explain
why why is this logistics and this gymnastics because the rear will last around I don't know
probably 10 000 kilometers maximum but from Novosibirsk to Magadan and from Magadan to
Novosibirsk are already 14 000 kilometers and because I did not want to take this risk I
decided the first 3 000 kilometers to ride with the old tire I hope that it will last and then
change it in Chita. The original plan was to send it to Yakutsk but I'm not sure that my tire the
meters 07 that I've got will last to Yakutsk that's why I decided to make all of these changes.
So in this part of Russia is very difficult to find tires almost impossible and even if you
find tires they need to be shipped from Moscow or from Saint Petersburg which is mean that
I don't have any chances to find tires that's why are all of this gymnastics and logistics
to be able to travel. Let me now show the room the price is 8 euros fantastic I was even surprised
to to see this price and the hotel is not bad at all this is the room two beds air conditioning
big enough to spread all of my stuff everywhere
wi-fi everything and it has on the floor shower and toilet but this is just perfect I don't need
anything else I already got my shower and now it is around five o'clock let me check what what is
the local time 5 30 local time and because as I told you I shipped the tire to Chita but the
shipping company said between five and seven working days and this might easily go to 10 days
and that's why now on the next week I'm gonna ride maximum 500 kilometers per day because
if I ride 500 kilometers per day I'll be there in six days today is the first day and
if they did not brought the tire until this time I have to wait in Chita and Chita it's
nothing really interesting yeah but yeah this is the situation just wanted to update how it's going
all good no problems with the bike I changed the oil yesterday in Novosibirsk checked everything
all bearings brake pads everything is perfect so the journey continues see you in the next video
