 The AT at the dealer was chained to
 a platform, so I didn't have a chance to ride it or even  move it around, just sit on it.  I just figured that a 1K  liter motor would require a heavy chassis and would keep it  from nimbleness off-road.  All the pubs like it.  Maybe  I'm just trying to talk myself out of trying to come  with the $13K.  Let's see, If I sold the 650 XChallenge  (now on Craigslist)  and the CTX700, and maybe a couple of shotguns.  Hmmm.

 Hey Milt,I sat on one
 here at Nault’s Honda Powersports (the head of service  department called to tell me when it was in) and I have to  say I thought it was slim and very cool. It felt a lot like  a TA to me - that it would be much more nimble that it’s  weight would suggest. I would love to have one.

 Had a chance to sit on a new Africa
 Twin yesterday at Powersports East in Bear, DE.  The thing  is big and feels heavy.  It has street tires on it.  Many  years ago, JC Whitney's catalog featured a fake CB  antenna you could put on your car to give "the look of  CB" (their term).  As great as the AT may be, it seems  intended to give "the look of ADV".  
 
 I'm gonna sell my G650
 X-Challenge and get something lighter and shorter.  Even  with the 1.5" lowered HyperPro shock, it is tall.
