First tour any advise welcome
 

Hey all, Im about to embark on a ride with a friend up to Assen for the Moto GP at the end of the month. On the Sunday instead of comming home to old blighty we are gonna head off into Germany and down into Switzerland. this is the first trip either of us have done and we have picked the perfect bikes to do it on. Im on a 2005 ZX10R and my friend is on a 2007 GSXR750:clap:

Any advise is welcome unless its about our choice of cruisers

Cheers

Stu

Just go
 

Just do it Stu is the overall advice - I've done similar continental European tours on a Blackbird and the only thing I fitted, other than the luggage, was bar raisers which brought them up by a whole 19mm. I could tell the difference, but it was not a great one. Oh, I had a double bubble screen as well - very useful when you get above, say, 100 MPH on the autobahns. :D

ps You will come across loads of continentel riders and most of them will acknowledge you in one way or another + there is loads of advice in the threads on here if you need more - do a search for whatever words interest you.

Cheers fella, I had a BMW 650GS and a Fireblade before but always wanted the ZX10 so sold the GS and traded in the Blade.

Im sure we will have right laugh and hopefully meet other bikers. im gonna try to stay at as many camp sites as i can from the following web site
