Do some research and stop daydreaming.

Let me get this straight.... You are working on a workman’s compensation settlement and you are well enough to hang on to motorcycle, for dear life, for over 7000 miles of bad roads.

Is this just your way to get attention?
You have been “incoming” for over a year.
S..... or get off the pot.

Maybe workers comp will provide you with a motorized transporter chair. They aren't fast but they are Hybrid.

I would Jog down Hybrid and show them mofo's

I know plenty who have cycled it - but for the frail, elderly, the weak of heart or just fellas who feel the need to have an engine rumbling between their legs to prove their masculinity you could try to find Moto Mikey who passed through here recently.

Hey, bike crew B)

I'm currently riding around the Americas on a BMW F800GS. Hanging out in BsA for a while. I'm up for a group ride if there's any good places to check out.

I saw Moto Mikey when I was out walking the dog (not a euphemism!) one night, he was in my hood pulled up outside a car park. I recognised him and the bike from this photo.

My dopey hound barks at the world, so I didnt stop him for a chat on the land or sea north western border crossing question.

I would stick with the car, but I am in a similar age group as you.
As far as gatling guns- not really needed- you take a boat around the Darien Gap, which is the worst stretch in terms of bandits.
Central America is more dangerous than most of south america- I am sure there are parts of rural Columbia you would want to steer clear of, but in general South America has very little active daily small arms fire.
I have a friend who is a raptor expert, (eagles, hawks, that sort of thing- not airplanes) he does a lot of work and research in Chile.
He has his american vehicle (a 4x4 Ford pickup) shipped direct from California to Chile, when he goes down for a season. This has worked well for him.
