Hi lads,

I'm going to Katima Mulilo in May and June to help family out at their BnB.
All my family who have previously visited flew there.  :eek:

Me, I'm going by  :ricky: .
The question is which bike do i take.  ???

I have an F650GS with a beeg top box and room for a bag on the  seat.
Or my BM K1100RS with more luggage space than I'll ever need ;D

I'm not planning on dirt roads, the K1100 has been to Kasane and Vic Falls via Kasane before.
It was a bit of a hassle getting her down a couple of sand roads to a lodge or two.
And she is much more comfy to ride on a long trip than the F650.

When I'm at Katima I'll possibly take a trip to Livingstone, Vic Falls, Kasane, and back to Katima.

Has anyone recently been down the A33 / B8 from Kasane to Katima, and the M10 from Katima to Livingstone.
Are they OK for my fekkin great lump of a K1100 ?
I would love to go over the ferry at kasane, but i think the road could be a little too much for the K1100.

Cheers
Malcolm T
