This thread looks promising till this comment.

 

If you look back at the first few posts, including yours, there was absolutely no mentioned about the Africa Twin being a big scrammie

I'll be closely monitoring this thread..

 

Since the mod is looking at this, can i bring up something abit off topic?

 

Why isn't there any category for Adventure Touring(AT) or Dual purpose(DS) Bikes? I see all those mentioned-above fall into Tourers/Sport Tourers/Cruisers which to me is not the correct genre. The newly arrived Tenere is under the Sramblers and then General Section somemore.

 

If there is a category for AT or DS bikes, this topic will not be in 'Bike Specs & Review' because Africa Twin is already obselete!

 

Just my suggestion:D

Yes, we are looking towards it..

 

It's true that these AT and DS bikes does not really/truely fall into the scambler section as they are truely bigger in size and serve a different purpose comparing them to generic scamblers..

 

Please allow us some time to get into it..

 

since TS gotten in-sight from your helpful answers, this thread will be closed..
