Ive tried one, finally
Planning a trip to south africa in a few months and still can't seem to choose a bike, however tried an Africa Twin which suprised me at how guttless it was, I mean even less power than a translap, I was also told thats how they were, they sure look the part but I was not impressed.
This now leans me back to the R80G/S with a fair few mods or modding an XR600.
Does anyone know about the ability of an XR to do long distance without wearing out as it's a 600 single. I also want to do 2 up some of the way, were not bothered about comfort as you get used to it but don't want a bike capable of 6000 miles only without a complete rebuild.
G/S is still an option but off road it is crappy!
