How is the road from savannakhet to the vietnamese border. I will be traveling on a 120cc yahama. Any problems that I should be aware of and will I have any problems getting the bike across the river and thru customs at savannakhet? thanks. l.v.
Highway 9 should be all asphalt. BobS was out there last year & should be able to give you some more info, including travel times. To get your bike across the Mekong River you need to put it in a boat, get on one of the big vehicle ferries that go over. If the bike is in your name should be no trouble to get out of Thailand / into Laos. Suggest you take a look at http://www.gt-rider.com/crossingborders.html for some more info. Also take a look at the good Bat reports http://board.gt-rider.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=306 and http://board.gt-rider.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=308 Davidfl Keep the power on
