Met a woman who said she had two of these and was prepping them to ride to South Africa.
Asked if I wanted to come (oh for not having family and commitments).
She was admiring my zebra while I admired her bike.

Lovely lookin bikes and it sounds like a great trip on the way..
thought it may have been Mardi-Louise or Janine's bike but they had the single headlight set up as far as i know...
looks like we are having a couple in for usd conversions soon, be interesting to put one up against the S10.
nice bikes,i like the look of the air-cooled "Dakar" style bikes.
