The Benelli BJ 600cc bought in 2012 from Nicolas (a good friend who left China at that time). His previous owner made few upgrades, especially braking system, exhaust pipe (do not need to horn anymore :)). The BJ 600cc is an Italian branded roadster made in China. Chinese bought the Italian brand few years ago. The bike has today 15000KM and so far works perfectly, so lets cross finger than the Italian made in China machine will keep her promise until France. I am definitively aware roadster are not the best bike for this kind of trip but i want to give it a try and see whats happen !

Nicolas will be driving his Kawasaki Z1000 from 2004. He bought this bike when he came to Shanghai 5 years ago. Bike i guess imported from HK at that time. Today the Kawa has ??????KM ( we in fact have no idea about the real km of his bike).
