I read an article in a Portuguese magazine, about a guy who tried to do a round the world trip during Covid19 times.
But so far Europe. And a detour to South America. Waiting for borders to open.
Europe (As start of "RTW" trip) on a Honda Monkey 125
South America on a Honda CG 125
There was a reference to his home page
(I have only browsed some of the stuff on internet)

The Honda CG xxx Cargo is a model I would like to have.
"Pizza delivery bike"
If you ride solo. Why have a seat for 2.
And not a solo seat and a luggage rack direct behind the solo seat. And not behind the bike.
Mounted at the factory.. Ready for 20 kg.
Now the Cargo exists in a 160 cc version
15 Hp
121 kg
(I have seen that they use the Honda PCX 125 here. As Pizza delivery bike.
But it is not my taste)
Simon Gandolfi used a 125 cc Cargo.

Re: Go Big and Ride Small
Wonderful! Love the use of the rear seat, my only concern is that it is sometimes nice to stretch your legs by sitting on the rear seat whilst riding…. It almost makes you feel like you’re on a different bike.

And funny enough I’ve just put a deposit down for a pcx125 and planning a 4000 mile trip around to Romania next year on it

I’ve just spent a couple of days looking at a route over to the Black Sea and back. ViaMichelin has added it up to 5088 miles.

Re: Go Big and Ride Small
I like the idea of luggage rack on the passenger seat, it makes the bike more balanced and streamlined. But it does make accessing the underseat storage more challenging.
Champagne taste on beer budget.
