Honda ST1100 - about 130,000 km on it now, just getting it nicely broken in.

Photo was taken in Romania in September 2011.

What a great looking bike (and cat)! Much better than the random plastic nonsense that doubles for an adv bike today.

Scratched around and found a few of my other old bikes on tour.

Camping out on the main track north in Cape York on a cx500 round Australia -1987/1988

Returning through Romania on a trip around the eastern bloc and Turkey on a battered £ 100 Yamaha xs400 called NFA. Strangly one of my all time fav touring bike. - 1989

In India on the ubiquitous Enfield Bullet 500 on a 3 month tour here there and everywhere.-2003

The picture is from from my first trip around UK.

My Kawasaki 8oo Vulcan Classic. Took her over the Alps twice, a few Jochs and the Stelvio. Hopefully she will get me to and around Turkey in June including the Kemaliye Stone Road. I know it is not the obvious overlanding bike but as they say, any bike will do...she did sofar.

I have two bikes now Hyosung gt 250 (v-tvin 30 bhp ) and a chinese built 150cc cruiser. I find the cruiser(ish ) bike more useful
as it is easy to fix and consumes so little that you don't worry about it. All viilagers use smilar bikes so I can find parts eassily.
A chinese bike in Turkey and the Gt abroad.
