Seeking Bike in or near Guatemala

Ride it down and sell it to me - probably pay for your entire trip.

Safe Travels,

Pete

Pete: I have a 2004 Suzuki Bandit with the 1200cc engine. It's stored in Tampa, Florida and I've been planning to sell it to pay for a F650.
A trip to Guatemala sounds interesting.
As I recall from a previous ride in Mexico, authorities didn't make it easy to enter the country con moto and leave without one.
Please email me directly if you're interested.

Charlie,

I am leaving for Central and South America on September 8th. I will be riding a R100GS, perhaps we can meet up on the road somewhere.

Regards,

Sure... email when you arrive in the area.

Have you been down here before? There is a great river crossing between Chiapas and Guatemala; drop your bike in a launcha (18 foot wooden boat) and take a 20 minute ride up the river to enter GT. Would make for some great photos

Your bike is a bit large for the boat, but do not think the launcheros would have a problem with it.

Alas, at this time, have no bike to ride with you ... someday

Pete

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.
