Hi Bigguy, thanks for your input.
I own a Super Tenere and am planning to go to India on it with my wife pillion.
Ever since watching "Himalaya Calling" on Amazon, I was convinced that this is the bike for long distance travel.
Now I'm biased here, but I do wonder why you and I are in the minority here as most seem to eschew bigger, heavier bikes unless of course they think that they're going to take the dirt tracks all the way.
Not just on this forum but elsewhere too. I mean there's the issue of reliability and likelihood of something needing repair sooner on a smaller bike.
I would be interested in any info you could impart regarding your trip.
I've set myself a mammoth task-London to India, tour around internal India and then home again, but hey, life's too short to sit around at home and there's people cycling or walking that and more.
