Giuliano;
If you can afford the AT then it is the one to buy. Hans says he hasn't
ridden the AT, and that's
the reason why he likes the TA. If you try both you will never buy the TA
it is only half as much motorcycle.
The AT has better brakes (3 discs vs 1 disc for the TA), A better motor
(stronger crankshaft and more c.c.s), and better suspension.
BUT the AT is more money!!
