BikeSafe? It’s very good. If you enjoyed it I’d recommend IAM RoadSmart. I have 2 more sessions then my test. I think it’s made me a safer rider and strangely a faster rider. Being more aware of hazards around me allows me to make swifter progress if that makes sense.

A&S new scheme, Raise Your Ride, a rebrand of Bikesafe.
It was good, got a 10% code for IAM which I’ll probably do.

I’m thinking of finally getting my bike license and treating myself to an Africa twin in the new year. Any reasons I should avoid? I prefer the idea of touring around Europe on a bike rather than our camper.

Had a 2021 AT as a loan bike for a few days.
Handles well but incredibly bland engine.

Bland might be good for a new rider :smile:. What alternatives would you suggest?

Fair.

Assuming you want to stick with adv style, KTM 790 or 890.
Yamaha Tenere 700.
Husqvarna 901 Norden

Cheers, I’ll do some research :+1:

Just be aware they are tall heavy bikes. I’m a KTM fan I think the 890 Adventure is worth a look, also the new Honda Transalp 750.
Practice with a pillion if you are taking one, then add luggage they all make the bike handle differently.

Cheers, all good information. I do like KTM, my mate raced them in MX for a while and I like a single.

Fucking hell, I feel another rabbit hole coming on :smile:

Had a 790 loaner while the 1290 was serviced.
I was quite impressed with it. Plenty of go for a mid size, nice handling and not too heavy. Came away thinking its hard to justify the 1290 tbh. Though 2 up with luggage would be a different game.

If you like thumpers, the husqvarna 701 enduro is a good shout.

If I only rode solo I’d probably have a 890, I like the extra grunt of the 1190 when 2 up. Not having to change down and still make quick overtakes 2 up is nice.
