Damage to the AT:

1. Speedo drive gear broken
2. Wore out rear tire
3. Rear wheel bearing completely died
4. The missing of the engine was caused by one of the coil
wires being loose. Fixed in Penang when I got back
5. Broken wiring for rear turn indicator
6. Wore out the brake pads. To be expected with endless turns
7. One flat tire
8. A few dents in the skid pan from bashing down the island road
at Lake Toba

Otherwise the bike performed perfectly. It was my first really long trip on the bike, so I expected a few things to show up........

Thanks Robert, most enjoyable read.

BTW, I decided to skip the sandbox trip to take an extended off period in the LOS.

I'm sitting here in an internet shop on a rainy day and reading this highly interesting report makes me itch to pack my bags!!
By the way, I've been living the last six years in a village between the "Big Bird" and the "banana place" (photos at the beginning of the report). - Stop by next time!
