Operation Suzi goes Africa

In preparation of my trip to Ghana in just a few days my Suzuki DRZ400 SM was converted into an Africa suitable offroad bike. An ambitious project that was started about a month ago with the help and advise of Daniel and Robert - completed just in time :)
   Suzi got much needed TLC, a massive dose of WD40, raised handle bars, a decent skid plate, Leo Vince exhaust system (which I've had lying around for the last 2 years!), new drive chain and sprockets, neoprene fork protectors, awesome Excel rims, Heidenau tires, Suzuki rack (carrier), 28liter Safari plastic tank, and other bits and bobs. Once in Ghana she'll also be fitted with a screen. S
he's a new bike!
   Some snaps that were taken along the process of making her Africa ready...
