RE: One RLET - PB, this is troublesome. Not only will The Ferret wearily look on as imbalance could take hold on the handlebar, but I speculate that Collective will revoke my "status" and again Padawan I will be (popgun may be so disappointed Huh). This would be a dark side indeed.

However, in this reality - thanks PB. Perfect? Heck no. It has no shaft drive.
GO, thank you for that complete update!!!!!!!!!!!! Very helpful and also confirms some of my issues with my CB1100 are not just me, namely I am only 5'10" but get uncomfortable after about 50 miles.

I haven't pulled the trigger on the AT but I know the longer this guy has the bike the lower the price will go especially with the recent hit to everyones 401k. I look at the AT's online and really would like one of the blue/red/gold rim versions but this '16 is going to be a BIG bargain for someone . . . maybe it should be me!

If it were not a DCT I probably would have already bought it but I have been doing a lot of research on the DCT . . . slowly coming around on that item.

I would definitely have a new farkle list with this bike since it is totally stock and '16 AT's were a little stripped.

Also there are some concerns in reviews about suspension and tires on the '16's don't know if that is legit or just nit picking?

Thanks again GO!!

GO, you got this wrong...yours and mine = 1+1 = 2, we will have perfect balance with our two bikes, let's do it.
Cormanus, Ferret and Popgun ..(in alphabetic order Tongue) accept this solution with pleasure will...Padawan no more.
Amen.

P.S. Director must accept this status quo .
ROFL (too much)





Hmm, PB, you speak with "that" coveted tongue.

There is a Ural dealership/Motorcycle scrapyard (vintage) south west of Peterborough, is that the one?
Stopped at my local dealership this morning during my daily ride. Asked "Wassup?" Owner said "I got rid of the Africa Twin". I said "What does that mean?" he said "I sold it for cost". Apparently they have not been big sellers for him.

I believe PB was referring to the one in Acton:
