The Motorcycle Arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!! #$%#$%@#$!!!!!!

After months of waiting, my motorcycle was delivered to the parking lot of my hotel The Penguin House in Thailand.

Happy happy daveg and his happy DRZ

I’ve been waiting so long for this to arrive! Words are useless to explain the joy of seeing my motorcycle strapped to the truck arriving to the hotel. After waiting for so much time infinite terrible scenarios constantly preoccupied my mind– thoughts of my DRZ arriving with pieces missing or even worse.. never arriving. She’s finally here!! My long lost moto-home!!!!!

My DRZ is here and fired up with only minimal persuasion by the starter button.  It is unbelievable that after almost 4 months of sitting she started without a problem.  Thanks to Alex who came over to assist and bring the bike some fresh benzine. If you’re like me, a lover of motorcycles in general, you can look up motorcycle trikes for sale to see which fits your lifestyle the best. For me, I chose this DRZ since I’m always traveling. It’s easy to maintain and to find parts for it, even when I’m in different countries. For instance, I had a problem with my last motorcycle since it wasn’t a common model, especially in Asia. When choosing one, take this into account.

Now, let the motorcycle portion of my journey begin. Subscribe to my blog to keep up with my travels!

    When I read the title of the post I was kind of expecting the motorcycle to be missing some parts… Glad that’s not the case!
