Shanghai to Moganshan this week end (19/21 August 2011)

Hey Nicolas,

Nice pictures you posted, I wish I could have joined you, but I'm currently waiting for my new YBR 250. Right now I have a 150cc bike in Shanghai and went several times to Moganshan with it. It would be fun to go there together in the future.

In one of your pictures, I can't help but notice you have exactly the same saddlebags as I do. I thought they will be too low for the exhaust on the YBR 250, but it seems it's ok on your pics. Can you tell me if you did some special arrangements for them to fit without the right one being burnt by the exhaust pipe ?
Thanks a lot in advance !

Hello,

The pictures with myu saddlebags are taken from my YBR125. I just sold it and took the YBR250. I havent try yet the saddlebags on it yet since I my topcase is enough for weekend trip...Hope you will find a solution soon.

Cheers,

Finally I make it to Huangshan this week end!

I was planning to go to Moganshan last week end and left on Friday night. On the road I have met some bikers and I decided to join them to Huangshan. We made the 450KM during the night and arrived at 2:30 in Huangshan. These guys were driving powerful TMax and were going to the BMW Mottorad days.

Great trip but I have to get back on saturday night, so I made 1100KM in 2 days...especially I made the return alone....so tired...

I will post the pictures asap.

Cheers,
N

FYI, if you want to see a big bunch of sidecars and big bikes you should delay your moganshan trip to the following weekend; the suzhou motorbike club is making a trip out there with 25 CJ750 sidecars and some exotic race bikes. Should be quite a sight.

I've seen that also and gave them a call last week end
I will probably go there also. Hostel is already full, so will maybe bring my tent there
