In about 10 days my 28yr old son and I will set off for Johannesburg, where I have bought (sight unseen- but on advice from fellow bikers) one 650GS and one Dakar. Then we set off,riding together for the first time ever, through South Africa; Botswana; Zambia; Malawi; Tanzania, then back to my home in Kenya whilst he flies back to UK.

Other than the whole rite-of-passage thing and the sheer joy of doing a trip like this with my son, I just wanted to thank ALL the Tossers who have helped with advice and support; warnings and hints and just about everything else. You are a great bunch of guys!(and girls too!):beerjug:

Keep your fingers and toes crossed for us on the trip please.

Thanks.

Before you go Sean, go to a BMW dealer and get a pocket full of the little mirror stem collets..they're pennies but they're the first thing to go in a drop and without a replacement, you'll have to get the mirror replaced or welded..(though you can swap them from side to side when only one breaks)

Tiny part, tiny price, big PITA

Have a great trip :thumb2

Many thanks.:clap Hadn't even though of that!
.....Well, I HAD thought about dropping it, but NOT about the mirror bits....

Cheers:beerjug:
