A pillion seat update! The accessory 'Comfort' pillion seat from the NT1100 fits very nice. Here are some photos to show difference in size, thickness and shape.

FYI... the NT1100 pillion seat fits on the '20+ Africa Twin. The two bikes share the same seat pan. The foam is noticeably thicker and slightly wider. There is also an accessory Passenger Comfort Seat option for the NT that is another 15mm thicker. I am ordering one! It seems like a reasonably cheap way to improve pillion comfort. I will recover the rider seat in black vinyl to match the new pillion seat. If you have a black seat already, then this may be a no-brainer! Cheers!

It's been a long winter here in Ontario Canada! Finally warm enough to get a little work done on the bike! A couple new videos coming soon just in time for spring!

Well, I have taken the plunge and purchased an action camera... I am looking forward to make some better riding videos on the ole' AT next season!

Woohoo! 200 subscribers to my little channel! Cool stuff!

I am working on editing a recent ride video of some of the most gorgeous motorcycling roads here in Eastern Ontario... hoping to finish up in the next few days. My loving wife 'volunteered' to take some more video from the pillion seat (still no action camera)... the video does not do justice to the scenery and riding experience, but hopefully will still be interesting.

Here are some recent pics of the bike from the weekend... photos taken along the Moira River, near the historic Corby Distillery property.

Cheers!

Coming Soon!!!
I have ordered the Honda OEM Accessory Comfort Seat. This replacement seat seems like a bargain compared to other aftermarket options from Corbin, Seat Concepts, Touratech etc. Once it comes in, I will post a video showing the differences between the stock seat and the comfort seat, installation and comparison on the actual riding comfort.

I have been putting some seat time in! 2200kms now. 550kms round trip last weekend and another 300kms today. I still don't have an action camera... so no onboard video. Looking at upgrading the windshield and possibly the seat... anyone have suggestions?

The bike has exceeded expectations in nearly every way! If you have any specific questions, please ask below.

I still don't have a good action camera setup for onboard footage - would love some advice on good and economical camera/external microphone options. Tempted by an Asko Brave 7... thoughts?
