The KTM shop in Lima can get TKCs. They are expensive though. I think you will do fine with tourances or the pirelli mt 60s for Peru and Chile. (And the MT 60s are available everywhere, you will just have to wait a day or 2 for a massive one for your 1150.) You don't 'need' knobbies unless your doing Bolivia in the rainy season. Even then, you could stay on paved roads for a few days.
I got stuck in Trujillo with a leaking water pump. I really enjoyed my time there. Stop by Casa Novios La Veronica. (Pizzaro 671 Interior #2B
) It's a few blocks from plaza. It's a wedding company. The owners really helped me out when I was there. (Not with a marriage, with fixing my water pump.) Just introduce yourself and ask about any sights you should see while you are there. Tell them Jeff from Canada says Hi.
Best of luck,
Jeff
