WE GOT TWINS! FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF NEW AFRICA TWIN CRF 1100 

Thanks, thanks for joining us! what have you got currently?

Just got a KTM Duke 125 at the mo, taking my MOD 2 this Saturday so fingers crossed I can get one without stabilisers soon.

@@bigearsboy good luck bud 👍

@@ontheroadadventure thank you 😊

its all in the mind, if you decide you are doing it and will pass, you will. Let us know how you get on

Couldn't agree more! We are regularly doing massive tours on the twins now and they have been amazing!

We have been using our twins for a while now doing big miles across Europe and they are proving to be great machines 👍

We came so close on the month moto camping tour but we don’t want to rush it, Africa needs a full tour of its own in time

@@ontheroadadventure It could be amazing

@@Merc-Rover We will get there one day

Thanks so much, We promise to keep it real here, you'll get the good bad and ugly!

We like that!

Thanks - So far we are loving them! We will be putting them to the test with some big miles going on them

Awesome! I've put over 24k miles on my 2021 ATAS. I enjoy moto camping (I think you guys call it wild camping over there) on the bike a lot. 😉Cheers, ride safe.@@ontheroadadventure

@@atfromaz Where are you from? Did you see our first go at Moto camping?! This will give you a laugh….Motorcycle camping Virgins on Exmoor! WATCH REAL BEGINNERS! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JhvMiRJpmao.html

We love that! Thanks for joining us, we are currently riding them across Europe check out our Home to Rome series 👍 ru-vid.com/group/PLAbzmvTdb3d2AMq92OcugOQF9x_EJ6C3J&si=puQQCrpMAVeL5kX2

Thanks mate, il have to look that up only thing we know of is from Adam’s family. Films are not my strong point it seems

Thanks! We are loving the New Africa Twins! Let us know what you ride and where....

Yes they are big bikes but we manage them ok and I’ve only a 30 inch leg!

Thanks Bill, much appreciated 👍

Thanks for joining us on the road! We are loving the Africa twins

Yes! New bike day is the best! Feels like Xmas! Loving the Africa twins but they still need names…

@@ontheroadadventure many adventures to come!

@@ladyjrider666 Absolutely! We had a great one today on Dartmoor National Park

Thanks mo mo!

Where are you from?

@@ontheroadadventure Dominican Republic

@@JerryR390 awesome 😎

I haven’t seen that film, will have to go and investigate now!

Ok so thats easy, if you want outright fun but zero reliability get the KTM, if you want a little more sensible power and comfort and Honda Reliability you know what to do. I bought the KTM 890 adventure before this bike.... This is how this one went.... 10 days it lasted... Shocking After the Ktm Video watch the next one il comment below, it talks about all the comparisons of similar bikes and how i came to the honda decision. Which i do not regret... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VHNRfcx8Ofo.htmlsi=xKpVF-Ey-_jx6MpD

Hope this helps ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-haBidtIakog.htmlsi=3Z6vF19iDOrS7_q8

@ontheroadadventure My thoughts on the 1090 was it being a 'basic' bike. No electronics to go wrong. I've heard reliability is good with those due to ot being the LC8 engine and it having a basic spec. Abs, traction control, and that's it. I'm not too sure what I want in that type of bike. Hear me out.. I passed in June 2023. I've gone through 6 bikes since then. I just can't find something I like.. In the adventure/touring bikes, I've had 1050XT - Boring but reliable. 900XR - Was nice, but ESA was awful and felt every bump. Tiger 660, had to rev it to get anywhere. Didn't like it that much on the motorway and lacked cruise control. R1200GSA 2019, too old for me at 27, not the most reliable. Loved the creature comforts. At 267kg, it was way too unnecessary for solo riding. My budget is around 22k. That's for 2 bikes. Motorway/winter/tourer. Out n out weekend summer toy. Here's some thoughts. Africa Twin 1100 base. Add a quickershifter, better screen. If cones with cruise control already so that's great. There is less to go wrong as it's not the electronic suspension. And a lot less weight over the adventure sports. Weekend toy, 1290R? S1000R 765RS I did look at the Norden 901 but again, I heard too many issues in regards to the 890 adventure, which is why that was quickly voided, being the same bike underneath. So that's where I'm at lol. Sorry for the rather long reply.

@@inked-96 Im gunna throw a spanner in the works… I reckon you don’t need two bikes… I reckon you should try one of these… Yamaha Tracer 900 GT plus Review | Has it been Fixed? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0mPqNYNSgN4.html

@ontheroadadventure it's got to be 2 bikes. I've worked my are off to.afford 2 lol. I was contemplating the older Tracer 900 GT, still has cruise control, around 6.5-7k. Still reliable and fun, can still tour, can still get me up to Manchester(300 mile round trip) once a week to see my fiancé. As I don't ride off road, would I be stupid in buying another adventure bike for only road riding?

We have bike shops like this all over, I understand you’re not allowed to test ride bikes too?

that's right@@ontheroadadventure

So you have to commit to buying before youve ridden one? I guess that makes finding genuine rider reviews in your country harder too?@@MrBob714

Not really I live in the usa@@ontheroadadventure

@@MrBob714 Do you have the Chinese brands like Benelli and voge over there yet? If so are they popular and proving reliable?

Always rains in wales 😂

@@ontheroadadventure I though, you guys live down in Exeter

@@dcijams yeah we are in Devon

So far so good although I have needed to replace the screen. We will do a video soon showing the mods we have made to these bikes to better suit our needs for travelling

Which film is this from?

@@ontheroadadventure Twins with Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger

@@Wollestar We will checkout out

Ewa is liking that one but how do we decide which is which?!

@@ontheroadadventure Jerry's the lead biker & Tom's at the back because he never seems to cach the little blighter

lol That would make Ewas bike Tom as she is always chasing me!

Which one of us gets the pig?!

I was going to fit the hard cases Ewa has just before this trip but it didn’t fit as it should so made do with the bag on The pilot seat. I think we are both going to stick to soft luggage after Ewa’s got damaged so easily in Spain at the start of the trip

Thanks for joinng us on the channel

@@ontheroadadventure from India.

@@slasher4328 Amazing, tell us, where is the best motorcycle roads in India out of the cities?

@@ontheroadadventure Can't list down all. Leh-Ladakh is considered as the top most destination for moto lovers. If it's an adv it will be an added advantage. Otherwise India has 6 seasons year round. All the best.

We plan to come over soon!

The Africa twin is great on the motorway very smooth 75mph at 4k revs just idling along. You’ll see in the upcoming videos next week, we have just done some ridiculous miles crossing countries on ours 👍

you guys both ride the manual transmission?

@@cdnrider6200 yes both crf1100 L Manual

when will we see eva,s review of her bike?@@ontheroadadventure

@@cdnrider6200 will get on it very soon, we have been keeping the twins busy and putting Huge miles on, you’ll see what we been up to on them very soon!

What do you ride?

@@ontheroadadventure Honda transalp 750

Amazing they are becoming popular here, how do you like it? @@sukrutuz3718

@@ontheroadadventure I love this motorcycle, it's a great bike.

Its a shame they reused the headlight from the old cb500 though, to me the bike already looked dated from new?@@sukrutuz3718

Absolutely! We love them

Who knows, one day! What do you ride?

2020 AT! Team AT with Y'all! @@ontheroadadventure

@@jonascahonas4323 Amazing choice! You had any problems with yours yet?

No problems. Added full crash bars and Denali D7's. The bike is fantastic!

Awesome! The Denellis look great but very expensive? Did you have to buy the ez can thing too?

Oh I like that one ☝️

You had a problem there?

@ontheroadadventure yes and it was a brand new bike. Give after six months and got myself a new triumph tiger they had absolutely no interest once they sold the bike. Had better service from none main dealers in the past

@@richardgiles2484 what was the problem you had? Which bike was it?

@ontheroadadventure vibration problems and corosion to the engine guard. They just kept fobbing me off. With hindsight, I should have gone legal but just had enough. Never had any problems with triumph, and they are always helpful 👍

@@richardgiles2484 A shame, sorry to hear that
