Hi All

I am busy planning a trip through Africa and would appreciate some comments on what would be considered an appropriate engine size for the motorbike. I was concerned about the bike weight and was tending towards the mid range capacity however it was recommended by friends to go for a larger capacity bike. Potentially those individuals who have done trips to central Africa on larger capacity bikes can comment on the size bike they chose and whether in retrospect they would now take a lighter bike.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
