People tour the world on push bikes ... an XV250 is a BIG step up from that.

35 years ago I used to prepare with for a long bike ride with tools, sleeping bag, tent, clothes, spare parts up to and including chain links and brake fluid, and the Haynes manual or equivalent.

These days I prepare for a long bike ride with clothes, GPS, credit card, cell phone, solar charger, and the dealer network on speed dial.

Still the same amount of fun!

Spear jocks, I imagine they stab you in the ass while you are riding. You are a harder man than me.
