Nicaragua on a rental for 2 weeks Feb 2015
 

Hi there. Im going to be in Nicaragua (open to any other border crossings in CA) for about a month in mid febuary to march 2015). Just going to explore as its my first time and will leave my trusty Transalp in Canada with the possibility of driving it down in the future.
Thinking of the Honda tornado 250's in Leon or the Yamaha YB's outside Managua. Looking to rent for a few weeks and see as much as is comfortable for a mid 40's man.
Looking to do more backroads as i have lots of off road riding experience but I travel at a fairly laid back pace ( cuz I wouldent want to miss that killer pic that could incorporated into a painting one day)
If any one is around it would be cool to hook up.
Cheers

I rode a 2012 250 Tornado for 2 years in Honduras. Fantastic bike. Butt will get a little sore after a full day of riding. It's not very wide or soft. I'd recommend bringing some kind of add on pad or cover.

Good to know. Thanks for the input. I just bought an "airhawk" air cell seat pad last fall. I wont forget to pack it. (they work great BTW...and a lot cheaper than a corbin)

Glad to help. I personally don't have any experience with those seat pads, but the name "airhawk" is what I was thinking when I replied. I guess they're the industry standard.

The Tornado is a great bike, especially because it has 6 gears. The motor is smooth and it cruises well. I did plenty of 2-up on mine with my girlfriend, and it went just fine.
