Nick Sanders
é um senhor com 53 anos que agarrou na sua XT1200 Super Ténéré e foi dar uma volitinha pela América...

a sua voltinha durou 49 dias e fez 50mil kms

nunca ninguém tinha feito algo semelhante sem avarias ou problemas mecânicos em tão pouco tempo...

Ahh, e também anda de XT!!!

Dessa numa XT660R não sabia eu

Deixem-me fazer uns quotes do site:

Citação :

I put 250mls of oil into the bike and set off. This bike is so tight. I never had reservations, just didn't know of what it was capable. It is more than tight; it is taut, like a piano string. It is a thoroughbred of a bike dressed in quiet clothing. It has a sense of understatement, as if to say, 'can I really do this?' but my God it
can. My understanding of what this machine can do has been up-ended by the experience it has given me. It is superb. It will be a world beater.

Citação :

Nick is riding Yamaha’s new machine the Super Tenere, designed to go head to head with other duel purpose adventure bikes, was it up to scratch? “It’s difficult sounding totally credible when I’m sponsored by Yamaha, but hand on heart, mothers life and all that, this is a phenomenal bike. It has done 50 000 miles in the hardest conditions on the planet, and fast with ordinary servicing, nothing special and nothing has gone wrong. I love my R1’s but for reliability and for what it can do, the Super Tenere has blown me away. This bike is world class.” It looks like three times up and down the longest and toughest road in the world says it all.

Long live XT12.

PS: Quero ver uma GS12 fazer isto sem comboio de assistencia

este homem é um verdadeiro Iron Butt
