Me and Nadsicles have just done London to Ulan Bataar on Chinese Syms (110 C90 copies) and they were fab. Cheap too. And much easier to source than C90s.

Read your blog and thought you had quite serious (fairly expensive) engine trouble with one of the bikes? Would you say there where as reliable as a japanese bike?
. Have had a look at some C90's but a lot of owners seem to want high prices for old, worn out bikes.
Looking at a local Honda XR125L tommorrow as looks low miles and fairly decent price - plus i'm a slightly bigger bloke - not as economic on fuel but fairly bulletproof from what I have read.
Thanks for those that replied - went with the XR125L- bought today. 4500 miles, 2008 model with one or two useful mods. Hopefully won't regret the descion! Now to planning the trip by motorcycle! Think I will be posting/looking on these boards a lot. Want to leave a.s.a.p. - b ut have a feeling beginning of October maybe too optimistic.
