Our Motorcycles

We have a brand new fleet of Honda Tornado XR250’s, which is our bike of choice for all our tours. The Honda Tornado is a fantastic, well rounded dual sport motorcycle. It has a smooth dual cam motor, wide ratio 6-gear transmission, and we run Pirelli dual-sport tires. For the small winding roads we ride on our tours, there is no bike that is more fun. Big bikes get left behind!

The seat height is 34.5 inches, which is a little taller than a standard road bike, and a little shorter than a full-on dirtbike. For riders who prefer a shorter bike, we can lower the seat height 1.5″ so you can get both feet on the ground. The Honda Tornado is about 300 pounds ready to ride, so it is very easy to maneuver and control.

We also offer the Yamaha XT250, which is a perfect compliment to the XR250’s. We generally recommend this bike for short riders, or riders with less experience. These are sturdy and capable adventure bikes with a seat height of only 32″. They are easy to ride, forgiving, and let you just relax and enjoy the trip!

In certain situations we provide the Kawasaki KLR 650 for our tours. This is generally for tours where riders will have a passenger on the bike. In these cases we may skip a couple of the more challenging dirt sections and ride a little extra pavement.

The venerable KLR650 needs no introduction. It is a tried and true adventure touring bike that is fun to ride and in the right hands will take you anywhere.

If you have any questions about what to bring or how to pack, please contact us and we’ll get right back to you.
