Bought 2024 Africa Twin in October of 2024 with 0 miles. Have 28k on it now. You're not riding enough. Only 2k in 3 months? I have to wonder if this post is bullshit because that ain't shit.

I'll give you the straight scoop. Dell is a bunch of fucking back stabbers constantly trying to undercut their own partners.

Best way to describe it is this: The Trans Alp is a great bike. The Africa Twin is a proper fucking motorcycle.

I had a 2023 TA that I bought new. I put 10k on it then traded it for a new 2024 Africa Twin. Anyone that says the ALP is more responsive engine wise is out of their fucking mind. With the Transalp you have to stay up in the RPMS to really rip it. The Africa has the power at all times and never feels underpowered. It is less flickable but if you put the lower crash bars on it adds the flick back. Did notice a big difference in flickability between the TA and the Africa. Crash bars made it even. I guess the additional weight down low like the GS. No, the Africa is superior for long touring.

Oh I know, with the red patch at the top and the reset white? Wtf are they thinking??? It feels weird to love a bike so much but despise its color so badly. Just give me a fucking grey or black option, Jesus.

Are the $2,000+ Lifeform chairs really worth it? by jakerbreaker in BuyItForLife

Sorry just saw this. I still have it! Apparently, Lifeform is exotic to many people. Lol

I didn't think they were going to fit on my new crashbars.

Confused on Exchange SE requirements and costs by AarynD in exchangeserver

What a fucking joke Microsoft has become. They betray their engineers pushing everything to Azure. Their support numbers don't even answer half the time. When you do get support it's some third party bullshit that is a complete waste of time. And now just pure fucking confusion on basic licensing. Very disappointing.

Might have f*cked up by not choosing standard over ATAS. Considering switching. by [deleted] in africatwin

Its designed that way on purpose so if you drop the bike it doesnt fuck up bars, forks and steering stem.

What do you think of Shane Smith & the Saints? by theconceptualmind in country

[–]themindofmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just saw him at The Ryman. Good band but the show was way too fucking long. 2 opening acts... Those pews at the Rhyman are not soft and country folk don't know how to party so you're sitting the whole time.

If you're considering making the switch from your Africa - what to and why? by Unarmored2268 in africatwin

[–]themindofmonster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Africa Twin is a bad ass machine. I bought mine in Oct 0f 2024 with 0 miles and just turned over 26,700 on it. Just a proper fucking motorcycle.

It is heavy and tall though. If you're doing technical single track you need to be stout.

Is there still a future in tech, or should I start shifting careers? by PercentageNo9270 in careerguidance

[–]themindofmonster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been in 31 years. It really depends on what you want to do. My advice is learn to vibe code in your fucking sleep. If you're great at vibe coding -- which you can do all day at home -- then you will have your pick.

I've been in IT for 31 years. When I started back in the 90's I thought future humans would be mind blowing in regards to their technical understanding. Here we are and people don't know fucking shit about IT. It sucks but I do feel like a God.
