Hi Everyone...


Im wanting to do a trip through Africa and want to know which the best bike for me to do it on?

1 - BMW GS1200 ADV.

2 - BMW F 800 GS

3 - KTM 990 ADV.


I have bike experience. Im 24 years old, 6.05ft, 75kg..

I want to know which one of these bikes are the most reliable...

I know Bmw's are meant to be the proven bike, but the "off-roadness" of the KTM appeals to me much more, but heard they tend to give problems? And I do not plan on being stuck on a small road in "Gambia"...


Please give me your advise and thoughts, as they will be very appreciated.
