Sorry : Which Bike ??
Hi People !!! After having driving in Africa with Cars , trucks , jeeps , push-bikes and in public transport .. I am now considering to adquire a overlanding-motorbike , with the sole intent of driving it trhought Africa.
I am really doubting beetween a
Yamaha XT 600 E (?) 25000 kms 1700 Euros
or a
Honda XL 600 "Paris Dakar" (apparently with long-range fuel tank , dual headlamps , panniers and dual-battery 15000 Kms (4000 of them raced in Afrika) 1800 Euros
Other options include Domminators (2000 Euros) ..Transalps (?) (2200 Euros) and AfricaTwins (2500) Euros. .
Which one woould you reccomend for someone which never -ever- drove a motorbike (I really don't know which side is the gearbox and which one is the rear-brake !) .
Thanks a lot !
Javier.
