One of the best brands !! Suzuki, Honda and Yamaha are super reliable bikes! congrats, V-Strom 800 DE is good choise too, and less weight, good for off road, Transalp Honda are very good with only 208kg !!! one of the best!

Oliver, congrats on the V-Strom dude! I own a 2018 V-Strom 1000 and absolutely love it. I’d love to interview you both about your upcoming quest on my channel sometime! I’m an adventurer as well. I just hiked across America and I’m about to ride the Trans America Trail this summer. I know my viewers would be fascinated by your story!

Another British couple went around the world on a used CX500 Honda they paid 1400 dollars, the replaced the stator several times, the VStrom is one of the best but the simpler carbed lower center gravity cx might win.

Interesting that you saw the Moto Guzzi. That's what I'm looking at buying, and why I ended up on your channel, because I want to travel around the world, and thinking the V85TT might be the one for me :D The downside to Moto Guzzi is that the dealer network is pretty limited. It's a shaft drive which means it's pretty reliable, BUT if something goes wrong in the middle of Africa, you're not going to have as much luck as the bike you bought.
