Hey Andy,
Did you buy from a dealer in RSA or private? If it was a dealer do you mind sharing which one? And what was that process like? Was it difficult to buy it? I've read a lot about transferring it into your name being a hassle with getting a TRN and it can take weeks (which I really wouldn't have to sit around and wait for one when i'm there).
I am from Canada, and our dollar is absolutely awful right now, but I guess it's good news that the rand is as well.
Where do you plan on starting in South Africa? My rough plan is planning to start in the Johannesburg area and ride through Botswana, zimbabwe, mozambique, malawi, tanzania, burundi, rwanda, uganda, kenya, and then ending in ethiopia - hitting all of the national parks and such along the way. I would love to continue as far as you are going all the way into Egypt but I don't think I will have enough time for that.
Would love to hear any knowledge you have gained from your trip planning so far.
Quinn.
