wowa Got the bikes out of Customs today. Any body who thinks that they are realy good at ridding in traffic should pop down to Lima and have a go. No one pays any atention to any kind of rules of the road. It is like being on a race track in a race, with everybody viying for position, but at 60km/hour!! Sheer madness and I cant wait to get on the open road.
The roads are just trash here! A Dualsport bike is a must!
They have 97 oct. gas at the pump! Tryed it but it was to much for my old 1989 dr600 (Ping, Ping!) and I went down to 90.
We are staying with a nice Peruvian family for $11 US a night. Our host is Dutch and speaks english and spanish. He has been our interpreter through all of the customs shit. Great guy!
Having a great though, drinking Pisco Sours and Cristal servesa. Pisco is a 48% booz made from grapes. Very good.
Im a slow typer but ill try to up date when I can.

perhaps the Pisco Sours are clouding his judgement already ?
Umm...Higher octane gas has more resistance to preignition 'pinging'... (quote)

I think all of South America, and probably Central America as well, is the same when it comes to rules of the road .. there are none, total free for all...
Good luck down there!!
