I purchased a 2019 leftover in Feb. I have almost 3000 miles on it. I'm getting about 54 mpg. I think that I may know why your mileage is low. It's the exhaust! Yep. It sounds too good so you rev it up a lot while you are riding. Not good for MPG but good for the soul. I can go about 200 miles and have just about a gallon left. The only thing I don't like about my AT is I wish it was just a little lighter. It could be scary doing slow maneuvers. other than that I can ride it all day.

Goodbye Africa twin! ❤️ I think you might be getting the NC750X DCT. I saw you last video with that bike and you seemed to enjoy it and you loved the DCT. And the Dual Clutch would make sense, especially after the description of how your left shoulder was after an accident.
@michaeljkasnter4 жыл бұрын
Your comments about what you think your going to do with that bike and what you realistically do, was spot on. I would have a Africa Twin tomorrow if i had incredible trips planned to where I could use it. But unfortunately with working everyday i only have an hour or so a day for quick high spirited riding!! The 120-150-mph rush hasn’t gotten old. So my bikes reflect the type of riding i can do.
@splodge57144 жыл бұрын
Sounds like you should of kept it. Can't wait to see what the replacement is. Honda build quality and reliability is the best but you did enjoy that Harley. Ooher.

Started to watch your videos when you had a bv350 and i a sh300i. After 3 or 4 of years you have already traded bikes a few times but i still keep my 2011 sh300. What i see with many bikers is that for some reason they are never satisfied with their choice or get bored soon. As i am allergic to wast money, before buying a machine i test it and read a lot about it to avoid spending thousanda on trades a few months later. If i get bored, i can always make a few test rides or simply swap machines once e a while with a friend. I also have 2 totally different bikes and this helps to enjoy different rides.

I love my ATAS and wouldn’t change it for anything else other than another one. Negatives for me was the paint! rust and flacking in places, to the point if you ride in winter its almost impossible to avoid (even with ACF50 sprayed everywhere) buffering from the wind is well known but the aftermarket plate for the top of the fork legs works brilliantly. the standard screen (ATAS)in the rain is in my opinion dangerous as it doesn’t wick away and hard to see through. The buffeting plate means you can use a shorter screen. positives for me is how it makes you feel! the sound, power and comfort is brilliant. I have the DCT…I know lots of people pooh pooh it and economy setting changes gear far too fast however change for one of the sport settings and i believe will mirror your normal gear changes. You also can ride in manual or use the paddle shift in auto. Commuting I mange to average 60mpg and if I go for a jolly, I manage to still average over 50mpg. loved the video and felt your pain about needing to sell.
