Mustang is now becoming a popular destination for many bikers. The vlogger along with two of his other friends had already entered Nepal. Vlogger was on his Kawasaki Z900 while the other riders were riding adventure tourer motorcycle. The roads were quite tough and adventure tourer bikes were best suited for this purpose.

Vlogger knew that the roads are quite risky and he even looked for ways to rent a bike for the trip and found that option too expensive. He finally decided to just go ahead with his Z900. The group started the ride and initially, the roads were good and soon it started getting bad.

There was slush, loose rocks on the road which made the life of Z900 rider hard. The other two bikes had enough ground clearance and they were smoothly moving ahead carrying decent speed. Vlogger on the other hand had to be more careful and the chances on hitting the underbody of his bike on the so called road was very high. It should be noted that Kawasaki Z900 is not a bike made for adventure road trips like this.

They mountain roads were quite challenging and the progress was slow. They stopped at several spots to click pictures and make videos and similarly skidded recording video at some places as the rider was too busy concentrating on the road. After riding some time, snow capped mountains started coming to the view. From that point, the roads became even harder.

It started getting dark and there were spots where the water was deep and Z900 could not have crossed it. The rider then looked for parallel path or road to avoid getting stuck inside the pool. After riding on uneven and broken surface for the whole day, the group entered Mustang and they were welcomed by even concrete roads and tarmac at some places.

It soon became dark and when they reached their hotel, it was dark. Vlogger did face many challenges during this ride and he mentions the same in the video. He says that the road is a lot more challenging that the one in Spiti. The rider successfully managed to reach the destination without falling off from the bike even once which is a good thing.
