Some advise needed on trip and tyres in AUSTRALIA
High , we will ship very soon to Australia and need some advise on the roads that we can ride plus the necessary tyres and fuel range.
We will start in Perth and ride up the Westcoast to Broome. Then ride the Gibb River Road to Darwin. We will continue south to the Bungle Bungle national park.
I am not sure about the trip to Cape York and the northern traverse over the Carpentaria Highway. From York we would go to the red center. Then ride Oodnadatta track and the through the outback to Adelaide and Melbourne. Then end up in Sydney to ship to NZ.
We are experienced in dirt road riding. However the bikes (BMW R 1100 GS and F650) are heavy and loaded with luggage.
What tyres are best. A road tyre like the Michelin Anakee or the Continetal TKC 80 which are mounted right now?
What terrain can we expect - we both do not like sand with the heavy bikes?
What is the max fuel range that is needed? Our tanks get us 400 km per filling.
We are currently in SE Asia.
Thanks in advance Kai
