Two.
Hi Ted, sorry I haven't yet done any long trips but two HUBBers about 7 years ago flew their TTR's to Vietnam and rode back seeking out the hardest route. It was written up in an MCN adv bike supplement and the bikes came out smelling like roses. The famous 5th gear failure occured and they fitted the spare gear they had carried in anticipation. Otherwise they were totally satisfied with the bikes. I'd recommend fitting a gel insert to the seat. Oh yes, also three Germans rode TTR's from Egypt to Dar El Salaam without any issues at all. I wouldn't hesitate. Lastly a HUBBer recently rode out to SE Asia, if he doesn't reply (I think he and the bike are now in S America) I'll search out his user name for you. Lindsay.
