Lekker review boys. Here i am doing research for my 1st adventure bike in Aus, and in the deep dark recesses i find a review that addresses exactly what my questions are. Sean may just have settled my current indecision between an Africa Twin and Transalp. I am going to arrange a few test rides and let you know. Love your work.

Good real world test, thank you!

[@ridefast-dirtntrail-magazines]

Congratulations, yoare going to love it Alexander. It is an exceptionally capable bike and flippin awesome to ride.

[@brucekendall52]

Why did they not just release it with Cruise control,heated grips,tubliss tyres,longer wheel travel?Missed the boat there.

[@ridefast-dirtntrail-magazines]

We believe, like with every other brand - bike, car, truck, it was to keep initial costs down

[@robbieandbeckie]

They did. It is called the Africa Twin Adventure Sport.

[@skyemsomi2569]

This is lovely, though I'm an NC 750X DCT fan

[@ridefast-dirtntrail-magazines]

Great bike the NC, let's hope the Transalp is eventually available with DCT as well sometime soon.
Thanks for the great comments.

Option 1: The fast and nimble NEW Honda Transalp XL 750 (do a Rally Build)
Option 2: A pre-owned 2019 CRF1000L Africa Twin DCT (30K Kms - with Performance Upgrades)

[@ridefast-dirtntrail-magazines]

There is no replacement for displacement.... The CRF1000 with all the upgrades is a brilliant way to go if you need the extra muscle from the motor.
The Transalp is a great option if weight and budget are a concern.
At the end of the day the bike has to be right for you and your needs
