As you may be aware, I`m not really into 10,000cc , 10,000bhp rocketships.
I was trawling Youtube, more out of boredom that anything else.
Then I came across this

Ten-out-ten to them !
it`s got me thinking about a trip to each of the four countries in the UK on something similar.
Maybe not quite as epic as their trip but it would do for me.
I don`t think my Hyosung GT 250r is the right bike for the trip?
Hmmm? do I need to invest in something more suited to the task  ____________________ I am the sum total of my own existence, what went before makes me who I am now! |

Adventure spec GS with many dealer accessories on PCP deal.
Obvs buy yourself matching twat suit.
It may be cheaper to hire a limo for the trip
Sensible answer. Your bike may not be the perfect choice in a perfect world, but if it's the bike that you've got, it'll do. |

Another vote for R1 .
Otherwise, if the primary purpose is the tour more than the riding, 'JFRI' - providing you're ok fixing any issues and happy there won't be too many in the first place. |
