We made it home on one of the last flights. I will post a link to my videos of the whole ordeal when I find the time to do some editing.
Thank you all for the advice related to this post.

Thank You David. These are very much the same reasons we left India. I've met people here who are clearly naive about the situation at hand. One girl openly stated that shed been hoping the airport would close down soon so she could stay even though her visa is running out. I also met an elderly...
Thanks for the reply David. What was your son most concerned about? We are on the next island off Lembongan and you can really tell this place is a lot more quiet than normal.
So, that didn't exactly go according to plan. We reached India sure enough and just as we were starting to settle in the virus started closing doors all around. First the overland border to Myanmar an then internal borders between states. We did manage to go to one REnfield showroom but thats...
Very good of you, sir. Thank you for the pictures. It's fueling my motorcycle fever, which at present is already getting out of hand. I will be glad to report to you from the field in the nearest.
Many thanks

Thanks David, I had a look at that Nevermind website, looks like they have a good thing going. We will take our time in acclimatizing and consult a trustworthy experienced guide before setting off on the road.

That is good knews. She wasn't too keen on being on the sportster so we shall see how we go. Maybe I'll need to seat her on a small innertube of a wheelbarrow or something to cushion the shaking. Speaking of which, what's this talk about the "Good Vibrations" of the xs? Myth, or is it true...
Apropos, from my reading Pirsig's ZMM, i glimpsed on the world of adjusting the valves of an older motorcycle. He (Pirsig) seemed to be doing it as a ritual every now and then on his Superhawk. Therefore, I wonder how often would you advise on adjusting them on the road? I found this ( ) video...
Oh that's right, I forgot about the local traditions. Come to think of it, I remember seeing someone in Cambodia, riding in the back of a scooter, holding his own in-vein pouch on his way out/in from a hospital. Hmm... maybe I'll just get the 72 red/white color xs and set up an ambulance service. .)
