DTube - My Motorbike Got STOLEN in Lombok! Indonesia travel vlog

in #indonesia6 years ago (edited)

My last video from the island of Lombok, Indonesia and it certainly did NOT go as planned.

Renting a motorbike is always risky business in Southeast Asia for many reasons. One of which is that most of them don't insure their rental bikes so you are completely responsible for anything bad that happens to it.

Don't make the same mistakes I did. Watch the video to see what happens and how you can avoid a similar situation.

Heya, just swinging by to let you know you're being featured in our Daily Travel Digest!

Thank you so much

Dude my motorbike got stolen in Lombok as well!!! Literally went out for a surf and two hours later it had been picked up and walked away with. Same situation with the insurance as well. I feel your pain brother! Hope it didn't hit the wallet as hard as it did me. Best of luck on the rest of your travels!

Wow. Didn't think I'd find anyone on here with the same experience. That's pretty effed up.

Yeah man apparently it happens all the time on Lombok! Where were you when it got stolen?

Selong Belanak

lol I love how your intro sounds scary right after you're like "I'm not sure what to do." Haha you should be smug. I like getting away from the tourists, too.

Ahhh your surfing footage is dope!!! I've been loading for 30 minutes and that's as far as I got. No idea why it's so slow...Netflix is instant! Not fair. I'd rather watch your video haha.

So uhhhh now I don't know what happened with your bike. #cliffhanged

Come back to Indonesia for a redo!

BTW, found out dlive loads faster... ::shrugs::

Dtube has been struggling the past couple days, I think. Hopefully they get it fixed soon.
If you want to see what happened after surfing you can see it here.

oh yay! Thank youuuu

interesting! fortunately in Bali, motor bikes usually don't get stolen :-) Followed you as well.

I'm not sure why it's different in Lombok. I'm sure I'm not the only one this has happened to. Thanks for the follow.

it' different in Lombok because 1) it is less populated than Bali 2) They are not Hindus who believe in Karma. Most criminals in Bali come from other islands...

Wow, what a story. Always fun when the police don't speak English.

Certainly makes things more interesting.

Sorry to hear that! But thanks for sharing your worse experienced to avoid this happen to other travelers.

I hope it can help somebody.

For sure @daveonarrival. We tried renting a motor bike when we went to the island of Bohol Philippines. Plenty of locals and foreigners used rented motor bike 🏍.
