Congrats on the CCM! Looks to be a stunning bike from reports I've read here and elsewhere from riders who've done test rides. The only question will be how will it do on a 20,000 mile cross continent ride.
With a bit of luck and good maintenance I'm sure you'll have a ball on that bike. For Mongolia I'd bring either water wings or a raft. About 40 major and very deep water crossings ... according to Colebatch's reports.
Under water excursions can RUIN motorcycles, so take care.
I think you're the first on this forum to buy the new CCM ADV 450. I hope you will do all us "moto junkies" here the BIG favor and do a few long term "performance reports" from the road. I would love to hear your thoughts ... and I'm quite sure CCM would too ... as you are really a BETA tester for them!
We all are GREEN with envy.
