Overloaded motorbike and sidecar in Asia

[linikit]

Majority of these bikes used in the Philippines are Yamaha's. Kawasaki's and Honda's are a little more expensive there. Suzuki's are not as reliable. Yamaha's tend to overheat easier but they can remove the silencer and off they go again. Climbing up a hilly road the passengers push the tricycle (as they call them in some parts of the Philippines) and get back on, once they reach the top. Hahaha!

[RagingBubuli]

In soviet Philippines, buses have three wheels.

[toolmantaylor]

Haha! only in Asia! very resourceful people:) who needs a Harley or metrics? if I have that 125 or 100 cc bike that can pull or carry 2 Harleys at the same time:)

(no offense to Harley lovers, I love Harleys to) :)

[tubebantam]

I wish I could get one of those shipped to the USA!

[ec46201]

a philipo?

[tubebantam]

No, but my wife is from Mindanao. Most home-made vehicles are not street legal in the USA, but motorcycle side carts are legal. Maybe I will chop one up into small pieces , put it in my luggage, and reassemble in the USA.

[ec46201]

"laughing out loud"

[tubebantam]

What's freaky, is riding a "sky-lab" in the mountains of Mindanao.

[xXsnitchyXx]

[AmericansSexualPreds]

hahaahha

poor engine wowo man i wonder how ling the bike can run like that

[Mic1022]

@gshockterror

hahaha, thats right. Two strokes are know for their torques, thats why you see them more on dirt bikes till today.

[andrewcovie]

[DirtyPierreonTour]

[dexterdoh]

Great timing!!

[w8tlftr4u]

I have been on alot of those tricycles , you know it's funny all the motorcycles there look like our bikes from the early 70's and they could be brand new but look like old model motorcycles, it's at least a 125cc might even be a 4 stroke with no muffler haha, but none I saw were 50cc, alot of 50cc scooters there though.

[w8tlftr4u]

Sadly I have been on these tricycles, me being a pretty good sized American it wasn't comfortable at all especially when more and more hopped on to ride, you have to hunch over in these , I just laughed to myself , its pretty interesting to see how others get around.

[kholmmn]

We started popping a wheelie when I was on one with my brother, his wife, her parents and all of their kids. Everybody had to get off and get back on again to balance out the weight better. I love the tryke's. Still wish I would have rode on top of a Jeepney.

[jiveroxiv]

LOL... but dangerous.

[Aura2Esby]

don't forget its two wheels.. if a dude leans to close to the left.. they are all goners :O

[jiveroxiv]

That happens most of the time...

It's their way of life, you will be shocked if you come over to the Philippines to see the real thing.

[DirtyPierreonTour]

The friendly Filippino we were living with told me it was only 50cc but I stand corrected.

[Mic1022]

@DirtyPierreonTour

hi there, no it cant be 50 CC. The motorcycle looked like a KAWASAKI, and sounded a two stroke engine. Those Kawasakis are known to have at least 100 CC. But Im thinking this was more, kinda like 125 to 150CC.

[zantets]

it doesnt seem 50cc, 125cc 2stroke i think?

[Guestwho07]

hahaha thats an asian limo.

[ghing2x1983]

ah! pakyawan man jud!

[mk3stargazer]

excellent!

[chuvachocho]

walay nay byahe padulong sa inyoha??? ug nganung naghout man intawn mo oi!!!! funny video

[phionex82]

lol please MTV pimp there ride.....

[DirtyPierreonTour]

I also thought "only in the Philippines" until I visited Cambodia, Vietnam and to a lesser degree in Thailand but still they pile them on! Thats why I love Asia. The never ending resourcefulness of the people.

[tubebantam]

They are resourceful because it is legal for them to be. Imagine if you built your own Jeep in your garage, then tried to get a license plate for it. Resourcefulness is often illegal in the USA!

[DirtyPierreonTour]

And thats why I love living in Asia although I have to admit the Vietnamese government isnt quite as lenient as the Philippines government.

[johnzejtun1993]

@tubebantam How right you are !!!

[BeingNobody1956]

@DirtyPierreonTour i can remember the first time i went to korea i saw a guy riding a bicycle, not a scooter, uphill, with a refrigerator strapped to the back

[DirtyPierreonTour]

@BeingNobody1956 I saw a photo in a Vietnamese news paper the other day of a guy on a motorbike carrying another motorbike sideways across his motorbike driving down the hwy in Hanoi. And in Saigon I was riding my motorbike behind two guys carrying a huge sheet of glass right in the heart of downtown Saigon. I wanted to video them but I couldnt because I was by myself and so needed two hands to ride in traffic.

[gavrihell]

@DirtyPierreonTour you can stop at the side and video them after that off you go....

[DirtyPierreonTour]

@gavrihell I got them another day and posted the video as "Glass delivery in Vietnam" Look for it in my videos

[tippzz]

@BeingNobody1956

LOOOL!
