This is the bike I will be riding. It's a 2007 BMW G650X single and it has a very reliable, fuel injected, Austrian-made Rotax 650 that BMW and Rotax have been refining for years. We've added a windshield, center stand, hand guards, racks, soft luggage and lots of other little bits. It's fairly light even after adding all this stuff. The tires are Heidenau K60 scout in back and a Mefo Super Explorer up front. After trying out Marion's sheepskin butt pad for a while, I had to get one for myself. They may look funny, but they work better than my home-made seat project (which came out rock hard and uncomfortable).
We start the trip in two days!! Can't wait.
