Correction- That sign is called Swastika. It is derived from Sanskrit word Svastik which means "good fortune" or "well being". Swastika is mainly used in auspicious occasions. The one that the German guy ( You know who) used is called Hakenkreuz. How to differentiate between the two - Swastika is like Square- shaped while Hakenkreuz is in Rhombus shaped.

Welcome to India 🇮🇳. Hope you have a great time here. A few observations 1. Swastika - an ancient Hindu symbol of peace and good fortune, at least 3000 years old, probably older. The Nazi symbol was derived from it by inverting it and is called the Hakenkreuz 2. The Mahindra Thar - Mahindra was given a license by Willys after the war to manufacture CJ series Jeeps under the Mahindra name. The Thar is an indigenous evolution, not a knock-off. It looks similar to the wrangler due to common lineage but it’s a very very different vehicle 3. Royal Enfield’s being beat up- this is a pet peeve of mine, when I see European motor journos test shiny Royal Enfields. That’s not how a Royal Enfield should look. In India, Bullets should do 30000 KM a year on Mumbai roads, daily commutes through unpaved trails, carry a refrigerator and 2 pillions, take a holiday ride on the Himalayas and then ride to office on Monday. Most importantly, it has to look like it’s been through that. Frankly, a shiny paint job on a bullet is for pansies as far a most of us are concerned.

I live in Iowa in the United States and I made friends with a young Indian man who came to my town to study computer science. I asked him about how often people in India use the horn in a car. He said they use the horn when they turn left, when they turn right, when they are going forward, and when they are stopping. And then for good measure they use the horn at all times. I asked him if he found anything strange about Iowa and about the United States in general. He said yes, he did. He said he kept asking himself when he was being driven on the roads, " why is everyone stopping at the stop signs?"

The ability to see the good is being lost in today's world thanks to social media . But you are able to do that and kudos to you for that. Keep making such amazing videos .

WELCOME..Surprised to see you in India. I follow your videos. 😊 Its generally advisable to come in Winter as its cold in Europe and pleasant in india. Now it will be hot in India and pleasant in Europe. As for the roads, much of the roads in India are British design road width. Many road sizes resemble UK like country roads are 40feet but in US it is 80ft. That design is obviously not helping traffic . Now modern standards like Mumbai Costal road project is 8 lane and i think lot of infrastructure mainly high roads might surprise you pleasantly i hope. Hope you do some long highway rides.. Again a big welcome and a big hug. ❤😊

Nice film. I went to Delhi a number of times for work: didn't experience any shortage of toilet paper in the bedrooms but did get violently ill several times. The saving grace was that our local fixer knew exactly what drugs to get me and within an hour of taking them I was back on form. They say that if you stay six weeks in India your body gets used to the local bacteria but I was never there long enough to find out. But I do remember that fresh mangoes were put out in the hotel room every day and I still miss them.

9:59 sec- that isn't a copy of jeep. Basically Mahindra, the brand that makes thar, bought the license to make Willy's jeep back in 50s (not sure about the actual year). And from then mahindra has launched multiple iterations of that model in the name of thar (the desert in Rajasthan), and this is the latest iteration.

Delhi was quite an experience but once out of the city we would eat a roadside places , built out of tin, wood and anything else they could find. The meal would generally be a vegetable curry with rice and bread. It was alway delicious and in my two week trip I didn’t have one stomach problem.

The Thar is indeed very similar to the wrangler, but Mahindra, the company that makes it, has had a license to build Willy's Jeep in India from the 40s. They have been making the Willy's style Jeep continuously, and this Thar is the latest iteration. It certainly is a copy of the wrangler, but at least Mahindra has been making similar stuff for 70 plus years, so it is more than a copy

Hey Freddie, welcome to our part of the world! It's a joy seeing you on the streets of India. Love how beautifully Monica has captured the city - the b-roll is just a visual treat. Hope you do give the local cuisine a try, think it'll be worth the risk ☺️ Mumbai & Goa are both busy places, so expect the madness & honking to continue. You should go further interior to the hills up north or away from the popular tourist stops if you wish to experience the peace & tranquility that this land can offer. Do visit Hampi if you get a chance, it's a fascinating place. India can be a bittersweet experience for travellers, but I hope you get to taste more of the sweetness of this place. I wish you a wonderful journey ahead. Cheers 🍻

Another really interesting watch Freddie & Monika! Im a BSA man myself hoping to get the new Goldstar sometime but really want it looking like a 50s Scrambler in Silver & Black. Maybe while you're there Have a word with BSA ? lol ;) Seeing how skilled they are at making trousers isnt it any wonder they can build quality Motorcycles!! We used to have that in UK -shame its gone

Hi Freddie , Loved the video , particularly your time in Leopolds , Shantaram is one of my favourite books and yet I didn’t realise Leopolds really existed … Fabulously entertaining video as always … One minor point, you really do need to hone your negotiating skills 🙈you are both too nice !! All best Phil

This is south Mumbai. Anything Older than 90 yrs is protected by heritage Act. That's why it's unchanged. The suburbs have been overhauled

I have to commend you Freddie on your excellent vlogs. You manage to capture the culture and essence of India, whilst being thoroughly entertaining and engaging for the biker at heart. Not all KZfaqrs can achieve this. Reckon you need to do Japan next and show how a tour of Japan should be done.

Having looked after factories in India, Pune and Ahmednagar my recommendation on top of the food advice……all good btw is to just make sure you wash your hands and if you can use the cleaning gels. Much more likely to get caught out with the Delhi belly due to picking bacteria up when out and about touching things……..just fyi. Lovin the trip 😊
