Hi everyone
Thanks so much for all your advice, it was happily received. We had a top time, managing to do the loop in two weeks. We had tyre troubles, all three Ventura Racks smashed and I tumbled down a hill (respray time). We got stronger the further we went, did 1600kms on one day and average of 1200 per day roughly. We became the masters of the 'splash and dash' fuel stops and the busas were champions. One bloke on an old beaten up BMW ambled over somewhere in the desert of WA and said, 'did you pick these bikes because they are the MOST inappropriate bikes for this job?'. What nonsense, they were fast, strong and reliable, just what you need. They looked more and more like tractors as we went on though.
I just wanted to tell you all we got home safely. Thanks for the help, we're addicted now so we'll see you out there.
