I may be buying - have to re-register the Africa Twin from the Isle of Man and then sell it first. The dealer says this actual bike is coming off demo in November, so either I wait for that or buy now...

Yeah, Jase, bought it off Cupid - I prefer it to my HG jacket as it vents so much better than that with built-in waterproof liner. I have a bright yellow overjacket for if it rains when wearing this one

I have a couple weeks to think about it anyway - I was just glad I could get the ball of my foot down - short inside leg alleviated by excess padding around the middle compressing the suspension

I had it for about 40 minutes over country lanes, dual carriageway and through town (the best route I could think of to test it out) so had it up to 80-ish max speed.
