Hi~

I was a SV650 owner for 4 year and just swapped to Arica twin last month. SV650 is a great bike, but I started to feel boring on on-road riding. Major reason for changing bike is I wanted to explore mountains in Taiwan and enjoy riding on forest road.

I though CRF300 is a good choice until I tried it. I'm not satisfied with its power and engine quality. I start to look into a bigger bike nearby CRF300, that's Africa twin. It looks much bigger than 300, so I afraid it's too heavy to ride on a small trail. However, I changed my mind after 30mins test riding. Handling of Africa twin is much easier than I though. Powerful engine, comfortable suspension, and advance technology... This is such a premium bike. Although I know 300cc is much suitable for small trail, Africa twin make me feel more "upgrade" than CRF300. Finally, I choice Africa twin!
