take twice the water you think you will need and you'll probably run low !
Hot places take their toll on man and machine....
1000 miles on gravel roads is not unheard of in the outback, and one snake can end it all.... be careful !
..... what tires do you have on the bike ? are they puncture proof ? (lots of green slime ?)
because you'll need'em ! there are 3" thorns out there ...hit a bush at 35~40 mph and you are looking like you tangled with a giant porcupine !
.... deserts are not nice on bikes, especially if their ridden hard,
take every tool you think you'll need and at least 3 days of food ...
and a gps Emergency button ... it just might save your life.
why you would want to take a Ninja into the outback is beyond me ,but Hay to each their own ! !.... (that ninja ain't going to like soft soil at ALL...)
....i would think ANY bike would be better than a ninja in the outback !
