1,000km


With less than six weeks to go before I head-off to Mendoza to meet up with Glenn, I made the best of the weekend to clock-up some kms; December is going to be a busy month what with business travel and Christmas. The bike has now crossed the 1000km milestone, is fully run-in and almost ready for the adventure south. Today the bike went in for its first service and to fit the remaining luggage carriers - F*!K these things are expensive here, over $1,000 to fully outfit the bike.

The rear luggage case is a Givi - Bauletto E450 Simply Nero. It came with a universal rear mounting plate, which happens to fit the Transalp XL700 nicely. The case is easily removed and features a deep recessed handle making it easy to carry. The large red reflector adds to the rear visibility of the bike.
