Hi,
I am an Australian currently in Uganda, looking to buy a bike to ride down to Sth Africa, then to London over the next 11 months. I'm currently looking at a 2003 Africa Twin and a 1986 XL600RMG, but happy to look at anything else if it's out there.
I would love some advice/recommendations on:
1. a local Ugandan agent/helper to assist with ownership/rego transfer (I need to get the rego in my name in order to get a Carnet);
2. getting a Carnet from the Ugandan Automobile Association;
3. a local mechanic familiar with Honda motorcycles;
4. the wisdom (or not) of attempting the above trip on a 30 year old Honda XL600RMG!;
5. anything else relevant!
Cheers
Stuart
