i wouldn't take a chines bike fore such a long ride, reliably ect.
i thought about a honda xr250...but that might be to high.
the suzuki rv125 (vanvan) is realy low and in the andes, at altitude, 125 will struggle. you could also consider a yamaha tw200, basicaly the same but "more" power. but don't worrie to much, there are lots of people traveling the world on a honda cub. Lois (on the loose) did the world on a xt225, it doesn't go fast on these bikes but you will not considderd rich so people will help you more often.
When you travel on these light bikes consider buying thing when you need them. the extra sweater when it is cold and the flipflops when it is hot. when you don't need it anymore donate it to the poor. That way you travel light, the lighter the easyer.
