    After covering over 10500 miles since May on my second SP it has been replaced with something more suited to enable me to keep riding through winter. Just one month old and 3000 miles done already!

    New Africa Twin Adventure Sports DCT

    Don't worry I will be back on and SP in spring again, will be my third then.

    Nice, had a test ride on the same model. I thought it was pretty good, A LOT different to a blade but good. DCT was mega too!

    Yep completely different but I’m still riding and that’s what counts :)

    Ha, and who suggested you'd bought an Africa Twin?:D:D

    They just look so tall so far as seat height. Must be super-comfortable to ride. I should test one at my dealer, but I wouldn't buy one until I'm older.:)
