Wow, the red tank certainly makes it look distinctive.
But, what's with the short clutch lever?
Are you taking the brick stand extension with you on the Amageza?
Nevertheless, I wish you well on your adventure with loads of good luck.
Report back to us, please.

The clutch lever can now be pulled in all the way without lifting my pinky and ring fingers from the bars. Just the way I ride, gives me much better control up gnarly climbs and when popping the front over logs, and or doing wheelies.
Haha, brick will stay put, was just to get the bike a bit more upright for the pics.
There sure is a lot of love put into this bike, congratulations!
I've myself started adventuring the TTR, though not for rally, and I find your work inspiring.
Thank you four sharing!
Dude, wow, that ride is the definition of gnarly. Basically back-to-back Baja 1000s. 400 miles of dirt a day 5 days in a row. On a TTR250. Through the Kalahari in winter. Are you serious? Sounds awesome and brutal and you must be totally amageza. Hope you're training!
I favor the short clutch lever too, keeps your grip and its easier on the forearm on a long day.

Will be summer here then, 35-45 deg Celcius day temps in that area.
Jip, I'm getting pretty fit. Done some off-road races, doing an enduro this weekend. Otherwise I'm also hitting some MX laps regularly, with a mix of running and body-weight exercise thrown in as well.
