Would be most appreciative for any advice. Need to add accessories like crash bars, skid plates, tank and top bag, windshield extender, etc. If youse guys have experience, your thoughts would be most welcome.
I considered a KLR 650 (too heavy and still needed doo-hickey and thermobob) and several other small "adventure" bikes but finally settled on this. Love it so far.
Have about 300 miles so far, mostly practicing riding in sand and standing.
Several years ago, I owned a cruiser but have never done any off-road motorcycling so still need a lot of practice.
That said, I do ride a mountain bike several times a week and that translates a wee bit.
1972 Bonneville T120V, mostly original except paint is my version of what "Tiger Gold" should have been, rebuilt top-end, new carbs, runs like new, starts on 1 kick almost always: 
AND, For Sale, $7k, all original Trident T150V with all original documentation, sales receipt, TOMCC Certification of matching numbers, full history, Owner's Manual, Parts Catalog, Shop Manual and more - runs like new, always starts on 1 kick, SCREAMS! First Super Bike..... 
ORIGINAL PAINT 
Thx for the link.
Beautiful. Museum condition.
Only the Trident is that nice, and it too has a few blemishes.
I ride these bikes, and each is so different.
That guy is posting more videos of his trip. He also does aircraft crash videos explaining what went wrong.
