Maybe an old guy needs to recognize his limitations!
Bob's first real motorcycle was a 1968 BSA 650. Years later and after riding 1200cc Harleys and a big Honda (1300cc), he took the Kawasaki KLR 650,(top right), to Panama. In '08 he rented a 650 Honda Transalp, in Buenos Aires for his trip to Machu Picchu. Now he owns a Yahama Star 650 also pictured (lower right).
After crossing the Andes four times at 15000 feet, it occured to Bob that it isn't really necessary to straddle a big heavy machine. The 650 works quite well.
