I noticed plenty of big bikes in Guatamala - 7 Africa Twins in Antigua for example. I came across the local BMW club on a Sunday rideout to Antigua and there were a good number of F650s. Perhaps far more than I would have considered in the whole of Central America not just Guatamala. Given that these bikes are around there should be a support system used to working on them.
I really totaled my Africa Twin in the south of Chile. Hard to believe it could be sold for parts let alone got going again. Replaced the entire front end with second hand bits secured in the UK and flown over to Santiago - a genuinely lucky find under the circumstances. Yes there was frame damage, it looked a wreck but managed another 15000 miles in South America.
Good luck. I hope you're ok and hope you manage to work out a fix.
