ummm.... again dilemma.. xt or dr...???
by the way i went to suzuki dealer here. he had a 2006 make DL650 V-Strom. it has 8000 km on the clock looks shiny and brand new.. a bit costy comparing to xt or dr but very very comfortable, powerfull and tempted. However, i am suspicious about the Africa leg of the tour. I think it (the dl) cant cope with Africa and remote places in S.America. But it is definately ideal bike for Turkiye and any other EU country (ok, Iran and USA too). Also, on this form, I haven't heard bad things or bad fault report about DL. bad points are: their are heavy, low graund clearance, delicate plastics, too much digital electronics, carbs and need a dealer to fix, especially the electronic bits!!!
it is really hard to make some choise. everyday you change your mind.. i've got couple of months. i'll wait and see.
