Very in depth review of the Africa Twin. Possibly one to consider for replacing the VFR1200X.... Time will tell.

    Thought it would be worth mentioning, this is the 2024 model not the 23...thanks for the upload!

    Ah thanks Lee, appreciate that. I was a little unsure hence I checked the back of the silencer, it has the servo cables etc in there, my understanding being the ‘24 didn’t have the flapper in the can. Appreciate the feedback. Cheers. 👍

    Call me a Luddite, but the idea of being plugged in while riding fills me with horror. I wanna forget everything and just enjoy the natural world and the bike. Its spiritual man! Awesome review, thanks so much, thoroughly enjoyed it.

    No need for an off road bike if you dont go off road.

    …exactly. I do (very occasionally) go on light gravel roads, but nothing more than that. The big advantage with the AT over the NT is the option of electronic suspension, which is really quite impressive. Thanks for the watch and the comment 👍

    Is it AT bigger bike than CT? I Am specially curious about the height of those 2 bikes.

    AT is taller, but has 2-way adjustable seat, which is a fair bit more narrow. AT is taller at the front as well. 👍

    @@Leon777KS I’m 6’1” and it was absolutely perfect for me. At that height I couldn’t see any issues you’d have. The ‘bars can be adjusted anyway, and there’s a range of seats etc available to tailor to your needs. See if you can get a test ride maybe?

    @@headrace4863 Thank you very much for information. I am on the fence between those 2 bikes, ergonomically AT is perfect as it is for me but I'd prefer CT . VFR as you already mentioned is the old school bike when the engineers constructed vehicles not accountants like nowadays . Drive save Brother.

    @@Leon777KS My brother is 6'5, he originally wanted the 2005-2008 BMW R1200 GSA, which is the tallest bike ever made but since those are all beat up in the used market, he then wanted the BMW R 1250 GSA but for him, Africa Twin Adventure Sports and KTM 1290 Adventure R were much better fitted bikes, because they are the tallest bikes in the market out of all the new bikes... As for seat height, they are all very comfortable for anyone who is 6ft and taller.
