>IYHO do you think that the 1100 GS will be too much hard work in the soft stuff?
In the very soft stuff (like central Sahara) yes. Just watched that Long Way vid and most of their agony was due to riding those overloaded tanks in the mud and sand. It takes experiuence and confidence to ride them well in those conditions. But Mk is pretty rocky, Conti TKCs make a huge difference, and of course it would be a pleasure to ride elsewhere compared to a single.
XT660 5 valve is nothing special I hear - the new EFI ones are something else...
> what plans have you got for any trips in the future (other than the eclipse trip next year)
It changes day by day with me - literally from last night to this morning. All I can say is watch my websites. I'm never short of ideas.
