Glad to see this... I've been watching your videos for a while, but only this year have I went and got a bike - only problem is I can't get my licence (UK) - I passed the first part (CBT) but then everything has naturally been called off due to Covid. So for months I've been sat with a bike but not legally allowed to ride it D: So video's like yours are the next best thing for me atm, and I'm properly jealous :D

Hi William. Well done on your awesome content. You put so many miles on your moto which gives Africa Twin owners insight into things we need to look out for. For example, the 100000km review was all I needed to watch to make me sleep really peacefully at night :). To me, less is more on a long journey because there is less that could go wrong (I know you already know this). However, Hondas are one of the most reliable brands so if the $1000000 is ready go and buy a few 2020's :). For now, I'm with you on this and wouldn't upgrade right away to a more complicated machine unless I start to struggle to pull levers, etc., due to old age. Haha. Keep up the great videos.

Hi William, great video, the drone shots, (like the follow along), are excellent, as is the variety of cool music. Glad you were able to escape to Mexico, always wanted to get down to Mike's Sky Ranch, at least now I know to bring a vehicle that can handle it. Would appreciate your opinion, as I'm in the market for a bike, and consider 3-5 yr. old AT, Super Tenere, (I realize their porky, but I love real cruise control, which I could ad to an older FT), or even a KTM 990 SMT, (not an advr. bike, but with tires,side plate crash bars, maybe for fire-roads). I believe you mentioned owning a KTM of some size in the past, I'm about your size, have lots of motocross miles decades ago, but see myself doing 80 / 20 road to dirt riding. Would like to include a pillion at times. Thanks in advance, (btw, is that a merino wool, lt. wt. long sleeve, I have one that looks identical by GoLite)?

I picked up my L4 in the first week of April. Outstanding ride. I still have my KLR but will probably sell it next spring as the AT is so much more capable. I've got the OSCO oiler, A faux pelican case on the tail, Outback Mototrek pannier racks, and the crash bars are next on my list. Try the Mosko Moto Nomad tank bag. I like it because it is smaller so you don't fill it with tons of stuff that you don't need to access on a regular basis. Big enough for what you need, but not so big as it gets in the way. I also absolutely Love that it has a hydration bladder as I do not like to wear anything on my back. Enjoy the ride William and remember: Outside of a Dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a Dog, it's too dark to read!!!!!
