Toontje, male, Barcelona, Spain. Had a three-colored Transalp back in 1991. Was the bike I did the most kilometers and countries with.

Between then and now I’ve had all kind of bikes of all kind of brands. Until today. This morning I sign my purchase contract for a 2023 three-color Transalp again. Back at base. They told me I should get it this month. Let’s see…

As mentioned in another post, it’s a big change for me coming from a 42HP bend-over-forward bike to this straight-up bike. I love the comfort it provides. One thing that struck me was how smooth, way too smooth, STANDARD riding mode is. Like an ECO mode in a car. It takes away much of the excitement of the bike. SPORT is how a bike should respond. My first ride-by-wire bike so I guess I have to get used to it.
Another thing I tried yesterday is Hondas RoadSync. Couldn’t get it to work. IPhone here and I guess it’s not ready for an iPhone yet… 😢

First longer ride. I almost constantly ride with high beam on. It seems my left glove keeps ticking the high beam switch on. ;-)
