I'm doing a trip down through Portugal later this year, three Berg 450's on the trip.
Most of the trip will be dirt tracks, forest trails, river crossings and graded gravel roads.
We want to carry very little so we're looking at doing the following:
Running mousses front and rear
One bike with a Boss tank
Wolfman tank bags
Bar bag
Enduro bag on the back
Rucksac and bumbag (with hydration packs)
Spare fuel and water in MSR bottles
We'll share a toolkit and First Aid across the bikes
I'm looking at fitting a very lightweight rear rack of some sort to allow me to use Andy Strapz panniers ( http://www.andystrapz.com/expedition_panniers.htm ).
Has anyone on here put a rack on yet and if so do you have picutres?
I see the only issue being keeping the weight from pushing the plastic sidepanel onto the exhaust.
Ahd before anyone states the bleeding obvious, yes we could do it on our BMW's and KTM640's but wheres the challange in that...
