This is also me realizing Im more old man then I thought, and I would REALLY like one of these in my garage or off-roady and wheelie hooliganism. With knobbies. do want.

Its so tall, standing on the pegs moving riding it around the parking lot I could see CLEAR over a ram 2500.

Just for reference, how tall are you? I think I'd need a step stool to get on one of those.

That would work well for me at 6' 4"/1.9m. I can’t even on my moms GS 650, she also has a lowered seat but an extra 2" is not going to help.

Next time you say, “here take my picture” hand the camera to somebody else.

When my tire s wear out I’ll be putting some semi-knobbies on. Can't wait to see how it does in the dirt this weekend!

I suppose the inseam is more important when it comes to being able to flat foot a bike. My inseam is maybe 27 inches, so my feet would be a good 6 inches higher off of the ground than yours. I don't see an Africa Twin in my future.

The africa twin is the only bike that would successfully replace the KLR in my garage.

Africa Twins are really great bikes, my neighbor bought one earlier this year, surprisingly agile for an adventure bike. Take one for a rip sometime, I imagine they would eat up the miles pretty good.

I work at the dealer, I’ve ridden more then a few. I do like them a lot. Underpowered a bit me thinks. but not terrible.
