Motorcycles
I have been riding motorcycles from 50-1400cm³ for over 40 years.
With the Honda AT's I had the most fun and the least trouble !
My 1000 cm³ Honda Varadero unfortunately had a very high fuel consumption. It also lacked decent spoke rims and above all a better chassis, a conversion with Öhlins strut and Exel rims etc. would have been extremely expensive ...
That's why I sold the bikes again quite fast.
My Honda Silver Wing 500 cm³ 50 HP, an ideal Tourer only slightly underpowered for his weight.
My Honda Africa Twin RD04 750 cm³ an ideal tourer with which I was on the road a lot e.g. to the North Cape.
My long-haul cruiser, a Honda Africa Twin RD07 with 56 L tank, 10 cm higher chassis, 2 x IMO 100R300, Garmin GPS with 16,5cm screen, Iridium satellite phone and so on.
My Honda Africa Twin RD03 650 cm³ , with which I was for half a year through Canada, the USA incl. Alaska, the Yukon , the NWT and Panama.
Great trip and a super motorcycle with which I had no problems on the way !
I also had various Yamaha, BMW, Suzuki, Harley, KTM and so on...
Non of them where near as good as my Africa twin's !

Now I drive a Triumph Tiger 900, we will see if she is better or at least same as good than a Twin...
