Hi there, welcome to the site, Phil is quite right you will need to post lots of pictures of your bikes in the lovely Portuguese countryside when you get it.

Have a little look in the Africa Twin (http://www.xrv.org.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=34)section and the Transalp (http://www.xrv.org.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=35) bit to help you decide on which bike is better. I can't help because I have both :D but you will find that there is loads of information in there and pictures of bikes, on the subject of pictures you'd better get and post some of yours, I love to see piccies of the bikes.
Don't forget to have a little look in Chatter (http://www.xrv.org.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=41) where we like to kick back and relax. You will find all sorts of stuff in there, sometimes it's bike related but mostly it's just chat.

If you get any problems then you can post in the Problems with the forum (http://www.xrv.org.uk/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=46)
and you should get one of the moderators of admins to come and help you out.
