I ride a KTM 625Sxc now and have been strongly considering using that. RTWPaul is currently doing just that and I am following his travels with a very close eye. I am worried about spare parts with the SXC mostly.
I am slowly working out the where now. I want to stay off major highways of course and really want to get off the beaten path, but still retain the capability to see the popular sites. As for the terrain, whatever is in front of me. I do not want to be limited to what the bike can handle.
The first part will be Central/South America. I am starting with Baja California and finishing with Argentina. It's a toss up on if I will ride home or have the bike shipped back. If things work out, maybe head back north and catch Brazil and tour some of the Amazon before shipping the bike back from there.
Second part will be New Zealand/Australia.
Third part will be Southeast Asia and India.
Fourth Part will be Russia, Mongolia and a couple of the 'stans, still working on that one.
Fifth Part will be Africa south to north
