A Fun Drive on the Most 'DANGEROUS' Road in India

A Fun Drive on the Most 'DANGEROUS' Road in India | The Jimny goes to Kishtwar

I took the Rebo to Kisthwar this April. The entire stretch of the road from Udaipur in Lahaul till Kisthwar in J&K is cut across a steep cliff overlooking the Chenab river. It is a rough road, almost a dirt track in most places. No doubt this road will become dangerous during the monsoon season, but it is so much fun to drive on during this spring season and probably again in the autumn months.

it is a scary road but not dangerous as long as it is a rough road. Once it becomes a 2 lane highway then we'll see a lot of accidents on it. Right now it just looks scary but completely safe as everyone drives slow on it. Atleast that's my opinion about these dangerous looking roads

Hi.. nice video man. I have been driving extensively in the himalayas for work. Large punctures or tyre burst can easily stall a trip in a jiffy.. Now I would recommend the following.. just pick and choose. 1) Tyre inflator ( I use michelin). 2) Convensional puncture kit. 3) Additional larger patches, also called Mushroom patches.. super helpful when there is a large hole due to XL bolts droped from supply trucks. 4) Handy tyre pressure gauge.. so that you can reduce the tyre pressure on rough patches.. without bothering with the tyre inflator. 5) A better jack.. can easily get it at any shop at a local transport hub.. the kind people use of pickups and chota haathi.. 10 tons capacity. 6) If possible.. upgrade to A/T tyres with larger knobs.. Tyre wise you good to go with the above recomendations. Hope they benefit you and others.

@reboonwheels 3 ай бұрын

Thanks for the detailed recommendations. Really helpful. Tyre inflator is something basic that i forgot to get. Will order one now. As far the jack, I need to find something that will fit in the space provided for the current jack in the car. Otherwise I have to find space for the new one in the car and I'm carrying too much clutter already.

@thehimalayandentist 3 ай бұрын

Hi. That would be difficult to get.. They have a. Cylindrical shape but the best part is that they employ updown motion to raise the car rather than the twist and turn motion in case of oem jacks.. I mean travelling in the cold region... oem jacks are a pain.. Storage is a challage.. i put it in a bag and slip it under front seat. Anyhow.. suit your self. Tc.

Nice videos . Subscribed 👌. At 6.07 you have stopped where rocks have fallen down . Pls avoid this . NEVER stop in such places , there is always a risk of falling rocks . Also wanted to ask , how did you manage to get a damaged tyre in such high profile tyres ? Was the tyre pressure low ?

@reboonwheels 3 ай бұрын

yes it was low.. around 26 psi..

@nobjohns 3 ай бұрын

The beauty of tubeless tyre is that the puncture can fix easily. A pedal pump and puncture kit cost around Rs.600 only :) No need to remove the tyre. Pressure the tyre, find the leak, remove the objects, plug the puncture fixing adhessive cord, pressure again. That's it.

awesome video. You are a great story teller on India in Motion and your video clarity and audio is next label in the other channel. but in this video for the time being it felt like someone is driving not you. Reason is the camera angle. You can give a try so a part of the steering wheel also get captured, this may look better.

Hold the long part in your left hand and fixed, face the rod from the side not head on like you did, and then rotate it about your fixed left hand. It is far more easier. It's hard to explain in words, but I'm sure the manual has pictorial representations of the same.
