[QUOTE="Aust 520exc, post: 159677, member: 23806"] Just looking for some advice as to a suitable bike for the following trip... I'm looking at doing a 10,000 to 20,000km trek through the outback over about a month or two next year. Most of the riding will be split between dirt roads (made & unmade) and straight out desert. So the bike has to be able to handle the rough going. We will probable need a fuel range of 400km plus - probably aftermarket fuel tanks. Won't have any support vehicles, everything we need will be with us, either on body or bike - food, fuel and bedding. GPS and Satellite phone are coming with us. My 520 is not really suitable - Racing Four Stroke is definetlynot designed for this purpose, so I've been considering XR 650, or 600, Husky 610 99/00 model, KTM 640 Lc4. I haven't had much to do with these bikes so I was looking for any advice about these or other choices I haven't yet considered. Cheers [/QUOTE]
