Help!!!
We (my girlfriend and I) are about to buy a Africa Twin, but before we make up our minds we would like to know your opinion about the following:
Is it possible to use the XRV as a touring bike on a holiday for two persons with tent, sleepingbags , clothes ….(you know girls…)
We have read in a swedish paper that the vibrations on the XRV are severe, is it true?
The same paper wrote that the motor was to weak to carry ”a fulloaded ” bike in highway speed, true or false?
Is the original seat comfortable for two persons? (what about my girlfriends butt…)
What is the worst/best things about the XRV?
Please answer as soon as possible because I am trying to convince my girlfriend that the Twin is a far better motorbike than the Triumph Tiger.
I ´m looking forward to your answers,
Jan Anders Carlsson
