Good luck to them it looks a complex route what with all the paperwork involved in crossing borders.The bikes look to have a tad lack of lighting for riding in the dark though

Be interesting to see these motos getting a good real world test as it were.......especially the panniers.
Best of luck on their journey.

Streffords in Worcester sold and prepped the bikes for them. They looked like they had a LOT of kit to strap on for the trip. :lol:

Doncha love the comment in the video on Day One.... Italian electrics!! But sorted quickly and on the way. It'll be an excellent test for the bikes, straight out of the Dealer and on the way. :cheer:

following them on facebook ..sidestnd switch shorted early on ..one bike has had a subframe failure it seems there is a bolt shear problem that requires a bracket welding on to stop the bolts shearing off again ..apart fom that they seem to be going fine they are in turkey
