The time has come for me to sell the Twin. No matter how great it rides, I faced the hard truth during my last trip. I was riding the TET and crashed—not even hard—but unfortunately, something in the electronics of the right switch block malfunctioned afterwards, causing it to become unresponsive to the throttle (despite having Barkbusters).

I couldn't move at all.

I was in the middle of nowhere, with no help nearby. Lifting the bike was a nightmare itself during a 35° heatwave and with the bike at a weird angle. I stood in the blazing sun for 8 hours before any help arrived. I have realized that I want a lighter bike with less electronics (no ride by wire) if I want to do solo trips like this.

However, I will not forget how great the Twin rides!

Thank u Africa Twin for the time we had.

Has anyone successfully had the Wheelie Control Recall done? Local dealers didn’t have the dongle to connect to the AT and other dealers said they cannot even schedule me in over the last month. I now cannot get my registration sticker for DMV since the recall is open. The dealer I bought it from went out of business and the next closest dealer also went out of business in the last year. I don’t think mine has the issue because I have definitely had wheelie control activate and haven’t had any stalling.

Saw lots of good things about the MA1 but since the 2 was announced in january I was waiting for it to be out.

It is now and it works like a charm with my AT.

Gonna have to test it for a longer ride to see if there are disconnections, but for now it looks very reliable and the power button is a game changer! I don't need Android Auto at all time, but it is very convenient to activate it when I need direction.

65liter box for the Twin. Picked up a sticker pack from the bike shop to make it custom! Not bad for $150

Fck, I messed up. I parked my bike to open a gate (I forgot to apply parking brake), the bike somehow felt down to the left side. 2 months since new... Now I will have to wait to have it fixed, at least I payed for insurancr so it won' cost me anything... except month or two of waiting ;( Apply parking brake and buy crashbars!

Been out with my bud all day. We have been getting the miles in! Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

The day has finally come, and I got my first bike. I have to say it was my dream to have a bike since I was a child, but I couldn't afford it. This year, the dream came true.

It’s so sweet! Need to dial in settings but man, is it a dream to ride!

Everybody was bugging me how the DCT stepper lasts. I was bored in the afternoon and decided to take a look inside after 120.000km although I did not have any issues yet.

Amount of powder already in the housing and visible wear on the rotor. I blew out the dirt and put it back.

This is a Mitsuba AZ12 actually but I was unable to find any parts or the motor itself (non-oem). It used as ABS motor in some other Hondas.

Thus, If the brush wears completely the whole subassy needs to be changed for a huge pile 9f money.

Does anybody have a source for the ring with the brushes?

​

Has anyone ever done shift lever adjustment on ATAS 2024 with a quickshifter?

I got a thicker adventure boot and I need to raise the shifter.
I’ve unlocked both nuts, but the rod doesn’t spin at all.

Anyone knows how to do it?

Was about to do my first 600 miles service and bam a leak….
