Welcome. I see we have some interest in common. I also do the bike thing, on a bmw 1200gsa. At least one 5 day trip a year, and in April I'm doing a 2000km Iron Butt.
Enjoy the Pajero
Cheers
Gert

Thank you all

Part of the dream is to be able to tour on bike and have the girlfriend driving behind (not too close though) as a backup vehicle carrying all the supplies...
Tour around 4-5 times a year and just plain tired of not having any luxuries when camping with bike (tiny tent, hardly any water etc etc from bike load being small)
At least that's the plan :)

Welcome.
Enjoy that Pajero.
Good idea to have the backup vehicle touring behind you carrying all the beers... ;)
