Thanks for replys.
Great. So light is better. I anticipate that ratio of 90-95% on road and the rest being off road.. Will check out those models suggested, what about the 660 Tenere? (heard the name crop up in a few hubb threads) So yeah the simplicity factor is key for us. Will check out recommended threads
I realise that its not as simple as "hey! lets by a bike and ride it to Brasil". And quite frankly I dont even have the means to do it at this moment. Still financially sapped from my last overland. But having said that I feel that when someone is conceptualizing an idea, its best to focus initially on the fun side of planning. I mean if started my planning with permits/visas/logistics there's a chance I'd get bored and chuck it. So first on my agenda is route planning and choosing bikes. Once that's established then go to work on the detail (btw nope, no bike licence yet). Im still two years away from doing this trip, but wanna get my goals focused.
Thanks Hubb
