klr650 in Bolivia?
I'm about to head North from Santiago and interested in heading to Bolivia. I have read a few things about bikes running poorly due to the altitude and poor fuel. I noticed my bike being sluggish to start up at the pass between Mendoza and Santiago which I think is around 3000m, so I'm a little worried about how it will run at altitudes of over 4000m in Bolivia?
Any experience or recommendations / suggestions of how to improve the performance is those conditions would be appreciated.
Also, on a side note, I know there were some road blockages etc in Bolivia late last year, particularly around Santa Cruz. Is this still an issue or are most of the roads clear these days?
