So hypothetical question here. Please leave the brands and egos at the door..this isn't about expensive or cruising speeds. Acceleration. It's about getting the job done..

If you were to leave in a week for a trip Cape to Cairo on a bike of course.

What bike would you take for easy of use, reliabity, if something does go wrong possibility of getting fixed along the way.

Possibly riding on dirt roads and some mud. Maybe weight is an issue.

I'm thinking bikes like:
Tenere xt660z
Sukuki Dr 650
Kawasaki KLR650
Honda xr650L
Ktm 640

BMW?


Love to hear thoughts?  Or add to the list.
