Well, I posted pictures on Croatian forum while I was traveling, you can check photos of my trip here
http://www.motori.hr/forum/index.php...32133.150.html (just list from page 7 to page 50) Route: Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, Swiss, France, Spain, Portugal, Canada, South Korea, Russia, Mongolia, Kazahstan, Ukraine, Hungary, Serbia, and back home to Croatia. Five months and 40 000 km. From Canada, through Asia I traveled with two Canadians (you can check their website and explore - www.terranovaexpedition.ca) they traveled with BMW's. Bike did the job perfectly, just some small problems like: chain broke in Canada, flat tire in Mongolia, and I had a it of problem with cooling system (fan didn't work) so I had to improvise... |

Parts for the bike were shipped from Croatia, and Yamaha diler in Astrakhan fixed my bike. The funniest thing was that Yamaha diler didn't have tools for fixing the bike so we had to use my tools and improvise too. I rode back home through Ukraine in five days, Hungary two days... |
Fantastic trip pics, thanks for that.

Must have been a pretty hard crash to bend the forks! |

What a star - I lifted this pic from the Croatian website - alas tho' I spent a summer there I still can't read the lingo.

I am already planing a next one with Tenere. But for the next trip, I have to put new suspension (specially rear) because, on trip like RTW, when you have a lot of staff to carry, the bike is too soft specially when riding through Asia. |
Fantastic trip, report, and photos!:041:
