I dunno, I think I'd prefer to do it on a piece of junk. Less chance of it getting nicked, plus you don't have to worry about wrecking it. All though you would be pretty screwed if it broke down

It was such a funny episode!!!
Every time clarkson stopped made me wet myself as he would just lay the scooter down!!! Brilliant. Makes me smile now.

i remember taking my 125 to wales and back, trying to keep up with my friend on his 650. wales itself was great to ride in, around the bottom of snowdon are some beautiful roads. vietnam would be brilliant.. with jet skis at the end. i laughed so much through that top gear, i say we adopt their bike test!

`tis my playground that is

Two things I really laughed at were Clarkson yelling "I am the most miserable Human being on Earth right now" ... after having read his books and his views on bikes I was howling with laughter . The other was May offering to pay for that fuel and saying "Oh dear , my Dong is a bit soggy" (Dong is the currency in Vietnam) , I coughed Beer into the back of my nose
