Tips for Switzerland to Mongolia in 2020
I'm planning a trip from Switzerland to Mongolia either with my current KTM 1290 SA or buying a KTM 790 R, taking the Southern route (Iran, Stan countries, Pamir Highway etc). I'm planning to make the trip in aprox three months. Looking for some suggestions re:
1) best travel time / season: Currently planning to leave beginning of May, knowing it will be hot, but the the mountains in the Stan countries should be snow free...
2) Way back: Either send the bike back (suggestions) or take the fast route driving through Russia, Ukraine...
3) Change of tires: Where do you suggest to change tyres on that route...
4) Bike. Doable with the KTM 1290 SA or should I go with the 790R?
5) If anybody wants to join, most welcomed
Feedback and suggestions highly appreciated
