Ok, thinking of buying a bike. I have plans with a friend for about 2 years from now. When I graduate college to cruise South America cross country on bikes. Buneos Aires, Iponema Rio, and various other places through out Brasil and SA we want to trek through. Lots of people do this and there is lots of info out there for people who do this sort of thing.

Anyways my question is for you bikers out there. I am thinking of buying either an Indian or a harley softail. I do love the Harley V-rod(I know not traditional but hey) but i hear the comfort level for big treks is low and they are shitty on gas and have small tanks, not really what i need.

So what kind of Bikes do you guys ride/have/like/want etc etc.

I hae read some webpages and stuff but still cant find any great feedback that doesnt sound like a marketing campaign. I would rather read what real people have to say.

Thanks Bros.
