So a new Varadero then...which was a new Africa Twin.... just chucking a 4 pot in it?
Honda would be best placed to get away from that soft road-centric Adv bike and get back to basics...
There are two kinds of adventurers: those who go truly hoping to find adventure and those who go secretly hoping they won't. We should come home from our adventures having faced their perils and uncertainties, endured their discomfort and beaten the odds, with a sly acknowledgment and revitalised solidarity of character.
Handlebar Nutta!
Agree with that, stepping away from basics for Adv riding is the wrong direction.Originally Posted by buggsubique

My thoughts as well. Bigger is not necessarily better but we are slaves to the cash flush new bike buying public and what they and the marketers think we all want in an adventure bike.
It would be better if they put some better suspenders and lost some plastic from the Transalp or Deuville.

My africa is getting old and rumbling a bit at idle only,not under load ,so I thought about getting a ktm 950 and getting rid of my blackbird as it s hardly used but I looked up Ryans link to the ktm,s problems and I know it would be cheaper with less problems just to tear down the africa and overhaul it than buy the ktm....
http://www.ktm950.info/...interesting and did not know the ktm,s had so many problems...
Where's the ride?
Dud link.
All bikes have problems:

"interesting"....
The link then works fine...
I agree with the above post, all bikes have issues...
The KTM link is a "Hall of Wisdom" things to farkle rather than to replace because they have failed...
In the USA, five months of snow and ice sort of makes way for tinkering in the 'Man Cave'.....Nuttin' better to do than dismantle a 950, then put it back together....See what makes it TIK, TOK!

Which was a new XLV750.....
