The next morning, I pack and we want to try that Leonardo goes in the sidecar and Francesca on the motorbike. Then I have to go up only one really steep road, but unfortunately I cannot drive in first gear because the motorbike has too little power. I must therefore let the clutch slip, until &#8230; until it no longer works. Unfortunately, there is no heat problem, but is burned through. The Security calls to a mate and he pull us by truck up the hill and then to a mechanic. I start immediately with the dismantling and Fra is looking for a hotel, because I worry that we stay here for a longer time. After dismantling, I note that the clutch is completely gone and I have no spares and have to improvise. The mechanic and all others waving that they have no solution. Furthermore, I&#8217;m a bit disappointed, because they are usually very creative in such countries.<br \/>  Another possibility is, it sent the spare parts from Europe. But this takes minimum 1-2 weeks and costs around $ 500 Express shipping. Normal mailing lasts up to 5 weeks and I have already a date for the onward journey, I cannot move. Yes, this time I&#8217;m really in the ****!\n\n **********************\n\n Wir kommen sicher in der n&#xE4;chsten Stadt an und suchen eine Unterkunft. Am n&#xE4;chsten Morgen packe ich und wir wollen versuchen, dass Leonardo im Seitenwagen f&#xE4;hrt und Frau auf dem T&#xF6;ff. Dann muss ich nur noch eine richtig steile Auffahrt hinauf, doch leider kann ich nicht im ersten Gang fahren, da der T&#xF6;ff zu wenig Leistung hat. Ich muss also die Kupplung schleifen lassen, bis&#8230;, bis sie nicht mehr geht. Leider ist es kein Hitzeproblem, sondern sie ist durchgeschmort. Der Security ruft einen Kollegen an und der schleppt uns mit dem Lastwagen den Berg hinauf und danach zu einem Mechaniker. Ich beginne gleich mit der Demontage und Fra sucht ein Hotel, denn ich bef&#xFC;rchte, dass wir l&#xE4;nger hier bleiben. Die Demontage gelingt und ich stelle fest, dass die Kupplung hin&#xFC;ber ist und ich keine Ersatzteile habe und improvisieren muss. Der Mechaniker und alle anderen winken ab, dass sie keine L&#xF6;sung haben. Dar&#xFC;ber bin ich etwas entt&#xE4;uscht, da sie sonst in solchen L&#xE4;ndern sehr kreativ sind. \n\n Eine andere M&#xF6;glichkeit ist, die Ersatzteile von Europa schicken lassen. Dies dauert aber Minimum 1-2 Wochen und kostet um die 500$ Express Versandkosten. Normale Postsendung dauert bis zu 5 Wochen und ich habe einen bereits einen Termin f&#xFC;r die Weiterreise, den ich nicht verschieben kann. Ja diesmal bin ich wirklich im Seich!\n<br \/>\n<!-- ENTRY BODY ENDS -->\n<br \/>\n\n]]><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broken clutch \/ Kupplung defektHuehuetenango, Guatemala Huehuetenango, Guatemala 3.2.2016 Huehuetenango, GCA Km: 106273 Broken clutch \/ Kupplung defekt We will definitely go to the next town and looking for a hotel.
