got a motorcycle in Iceland? New Zealand ?

Want to ride in the USA ?We might be open to other countries as well. Housing might be swappable, too. I have a KLR650 in the Boston area and a KTM950 in the Los Angeles area. I have a KLR650 in Hawaii on the Big Island. Anyone with a motorcycle to swap in Madagascar ? That's my girlfriends top travel destination.

Hi!
I'm going to ny next august, 20. I plan to get a round in east - boston and maine.

I also have a 1150 gsa bmw and a xt600 Z yamaha.
I am 49 years-old and live in Sao Paulo, almost in south of Brasil. Housing might be swappable, too

do you want to exchange using a bike temporarily? I may use one of your bikes in usa. if you plan to come to south america or brazil, you would use one of mine.

and, for sure, I would pay insurance while the time that it would been under my driving.
Or rental?
Hugs!

I just saw your post

MY KLR650 is very near Boston. Maine is beautiful. I am not sure if I want to go to Brazil. I have a real problem with heat and humidity and assume it's very hot and humid in Brazil. What are temps. in august there ? How often does it rain there ?

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
