Africa Twin Review - After a lot of test riding other adventure bikes, (her previous bike being a 2015 KTM 1190 Adventure), Sylvi chose a late 2017 CRF1000d in 2017. Now two and half years on, she shares her 6-minute summary, as a long term owner, on why in her opinion the much more expensive and complex 2020 AT model might not be the best choice for everybody or every trip. These are the 12 main reasons to get this model regardless of what you have now. Some of the points directly compare the 2017 model to the newest 2020 model.
Sylvi rides in Sports mode 3 (S3), usually with Traction Control set to 1 (Torque 1), and with the Gravel button set to "on" (Gravel mode has nothing to do with grave4l and simply results in smoother-more-gradual auto gear changes. In Corners, she presses the R/M button to "M" to hold the current gear in and through that corner. Prior to overtaking she changes down 2 gears using the left thumb "-" button. For Technical riding, Sylvi uses the left-hand brake to create a small amount of drag on the rear disc for short periods of time and uses S1.
For info on mods Sylvi has done to her 2017 AT - please see her video on that subject - next week.
