Second try of getting a crate around Basanti and prepare her for shipping to Oman - where the next big leg of this adventure will kick off!! Sounds easy right? Building a crate. Well .. it's quite time consuming if you first need to hunt for all different sorts of wood, nails, saws, straps and the like! But... it got done! Basanti is now all crated and ready to go to the airport. You'll see how that goes in the next videos !!
Good morning Internet, it is 8.30 in the morning and welcome back to the channel
If you are new to my channel
Today is the second day that I'm going to try to get Basanti created
So it has been a Chinese New Year here. So everything was pretty much closed down for two days
On Monday
We started creating Basanti to prepare everything for shipping her
From Kuala Lumpur where I am now to Oman which is my next destination, but I've been staying in Kuala Lumpur for a week now
It's actually the longest I stayed in one place on this trip
I really miss riding already
but the only nice thing about staying in one place for a longer time is that
I'm going to the same breakfast place every morning. So they know me. They know what I want
So I don't even have to order anymore
They already know what I like to eat
I guess that's really nice and
If you're moving all the time, then obviously you don't get that
But that's pretty much the only advantage because for the rest I miss riding so much
I really hope this is all going to go very smooth and
I'll be soon in Oman
back riding
So I booked my grab
Driver is now six minutes away
Good morning. Good morning. How are you?
Good
But we had Monday we had still plenty
Surprise
We don't have enough wood. So we're gonna buy some more wood
Okay, so how are you today?
Fine
It's good, huh
This one for frame. Yes. Yeah
How much do we need?
10
Yes, thank you
We got extra nails
extra wood
And now what we're gonna do. Yeah, we need some
Also another size wood we're gonna buy that somewhere else but we got the small parts and the nails so
Slowly but steady we'll get there
So
That looks more solid
Okay
So we got the wood
We got the nails
What else?
We're all set
Let's build a crate
I am now going to disconnect the battery
Because
as far as I understand
You need to disconnect the battery and tape it off
Now the agent said that the customs will do that. Well, I don't believe that. I mean you're not telling me that the customs officer
You're not telling me that the custom officers are gonna open up a motorbike and and disconnect the battery I don't believe
So i'm gonna do it myself so
It's very simple
the only thing I need to do is
Remove this and put some tape around it. So
Easy i'm gonna do that
I taped it off. So I disconnected the battery here and I taped this off. So that should be okay
So
We got a crate around Basanti
He's now only gonna fix the the top he's gonna fix that only a little bit so because customs is gonna open it again
So no need to make it super tight
And then yeah, um, let's see when uh, they're gonna bring her to the airport
I asked if I can join them
So I can also drop the paperwork to bring the carne because i'm actually not feeling too comfortable leaving the carne here now
so the plan is that um
Somewhere the coming days i'm gonna join the driver and drop her at the airport
