What ???
No TFT or hill hold ?
Nooo none of that malarky but i'll tell you what it does have, it's got a switch that stops
the engine if the bike falls over which, is one up for it over my GS1200. How's about that then?
I know you are impressed

It does have hill hold, 2 flat feet planted............
Having done some sidecar trials, all I can say is........Why?
Nearly finished running mine in. Brilliant little bike for the money. Yes it lacks power, but I have other bikes for that. It's very easy to push around and 'feels' as light as a 125 (with similar outright performance ). Simple maintenance, hugely economical, capable at exploring green lanes, easy maintenance, handles pretty well with the Harris developed frame and fuel injection/abs are quality Bosch items.
Build quality, well it's a 4k bike. Wiring is messy, take care when removing bolts as their bolts/screws and threads are poor (I just ran a tap through when fitting engine bars and braced handlebars). Otherwise, it's fine.
Oh, and the top box is detachable and cost £19.99 all in
Best off all, my dealer dropped mine off and having seen my garage is happy for me to self service and keep the warranty (2 years).
If you want a bike to get back to basic, simple motorcycling on, this is a contender.
And finally, the gearbox. BMW could do with poaching the Indians who built this, it really is brilliant.
I would be interested in how you get on with the screen attachment, could be a worthwhile addition.
Got a touratwat one in the shed if you want it?
got my new handguards fitted now. Got them from CooperB £37.47 posted.
They were a bit tricky to fit but go on well enough. LH lock it hits the screen, just.
RH lock it doesn't. They look good and i am pleased with them.
Got my tomtom mounted now, top box and wind deflector arriving end of week i think
so, getting there. Ordered the oil filter and gasket today from Sherlocks and have the
oil so, will do the 300mile service at the weekend, all being well.
I am !
I went from KTM ADV 1290R to Africa Twin Adventure Sport.
Less is more ,for sure !
