I am an active member of the landcruser club and have organised with my brother to take our cruiser from CT to kenya and I want to follow on a KLR  :ricky:. I have done my planning but would like some feedback from other bikers.

We plan to do mozambique, malawi, tanzania, Kenya. distance 7000km and then ship both vehicles back to CT from Mombassa (in jan 09 - 30days).

So far these are my costs (I have all the camping kit and all my stuff will go in the cruiser so I can travel with nothing on the bike)

These are my costs in SA rand.

Fuel 3.5l / 100km @ (R12 per liter) 3500
Bike depreciation or insurance exess 3000
Shipping (my contribution)                 1000

Boarder Costs
Mozam 200
Tanzan 600
Malawi 300
Kenya 320

Parks fees - 4 days & 8 days
Tanzania ($40 entry & $20 per day) 1000
Kenya ($40 entry & $20 per day) 2000

Other
malaria drugs                                 140
insurance for 3 months (bad rate) 1600
Tanzan visa                                 200
vaxinations                                 800
Carnet du passage                                 2200

Food                 2500
campsite fees 1500
Flight home 6000
                26860

kit
body armour 1500
helmet                 have
knee braces have
Jacket                 have
Pants                 1500
MX pants                 600
MX top                 300
Gloves                 have
Boots (SIDI) have
2 spare tyres
spare shock

what other spares should I take?

The MX kit is to ride in when its too hot. bare in mind its mid summer through mozam and kenya so its gonna be hot. I only have my lerners so insurance is expensive but you need 3rd party to get into most of the countries.

Any feed back would be helpfull.

thanks
justin
