slightly different pieces with the windscreen,seat,skid plate and crash bars looking different than US model.
I'm thinking take a Spirit Airlines for $200 from Miami to Bogota and buy a Columbian RX3 for $3,000 and tour South America.

The Italian name for Christopher Columbus is Cristoforo Colombo. In North America, we name cities and provinces with variations of the name Columbus. In South America they use the name Colombo or Colon, which is the Spanish name for Columbus.

That sounds like a great idea, just sell it on the way out. Plenty of people buy used dual sports for a one way trip to Ushuaia. South America is on my list of places to visit in the next five years. I need to work on my Spanish first to get the most of the trip or bring a friend who's fluent.

Let me try to convince you to come all the way down here with a few pictures from a trip I made almost 10 years ago :)
