At best it's going to cost £18853 - I'd add 10%

The badge was reasonably desirable about 10 years ago.

So that sad fantasists who are "planning" to do London to Capetown on their Africa Twins can lord it over sad fantasists who are "planning" to do it on their GSes.

Be cheaper to do it on chinky scooters buying a new one every thousand miles.

4 reelz cuz.

I did read a blog of some Adventurist doing the Pan American "Highway" on a Ewan-and-Charlie GS. Every couple of hundred miles he got stranded for days or weeks while waiting on many hundreds of $$$ of parts.

I really do think he'd have been better off riding a shitter and then buying another every time it fell apart.

See also Africa. Even this proper Tefloon got half way down Africa on a Van Van 125 before running out of money and clue.

The old Africa Twin was a classic. That new one is just a new bike with a classic name.

Maybe not quite as bad as calling a chinky 125 an AJS but you get my point.
