This is awesome! I just hope we have the courage&ability to even ride a bike, leave alone touring at that age! Helmets off to him!
On another note, how did the GoldWing perform in India? I am asking with regards to quality of fuel, bad roads, etc. Did it require any attention here&if yes, who was able to provide it?Quench my thirst with gasoline!

India is not the only place where they found bad roads. Remember, they were in Africa before, and the Syrian and Jordanian deserts. Tunisia and Egypt does have very good roads, I can vouch for that. But some other places do not have that good roads. In fact, from Amritsar to New Delhi, they have not had too many bad road problems in India.Originally posted by prashanth lobo View Post^^ +1.... I would like to know the same
The bike has not had any problems either since he has been on the lookout for "decent" looking petrol bunks and has been taking "Premium" petrol. His service done at KRP has been a thorough checkup of the vehicle with oil change etc. He had lost some nuts on the way that were replaced here. Peter has been showering praises on the way KRP has looked after his bike and their professionalism. Coming back to the Goldwing, there has been no real problems whatsoever so far.

Though he mentions KRP as an 'otherwise good shop' in his blog, he also comments that KRP ripped him off with faulty brake pads...
from his blog:
"Kaulson Racing [link] was formerly highly recommended if you are on two wheels. They did a thorough end-to-end maintenance of the bike. See separate next section in the blog: 'India Bike Service' [link].
However in the end it was a huge disappointment, they knowingly defrauded me by installing either completely fake, or 15-yr-old, wrong-type brake pads. Why do that? Risking killing us in order to make a few extra dollars, small money, on top of some $2,500 spent there? Very disappointing."
