Hello Stormsearcher, I think I just ran into a reply of yours to an earlier thread. I must say that if you managed to tour India on a RD350, you deserve respect! Great stuff!
I don't think any of the bikes you name would give problems in Australia - try them if possible as many off-roaders are incredibly uncomfortable on long rides, especially if you are tall. Good luck!

Hey Stormsearcher,
come "Down Under" and stay at our place in Melbourne. We'll help you out, looking for a bike and tips on where to go. It's the good time of the year coming up, especially if you want to visit the lower part of Australia. Cheers
