My 89. Had so much fun building it that when I got the first rock chip I never took it off road again.

Got a 640ADV for that.

Now that is the right idea!!! How does it handle, Dave? When tuned right, those little Hawk motors are real darn sweet. My bro had a souped-up Hawk at one point in time and it was sooo nice to unwind it.

This is mine, I just bought it last Saturday

First mod : power supply for gps

It has already completed a hundred miles, I enjoy every km more

To the navigationpoints which are printed on the side of TA700

A shot of your GPS would be nice too

A friend of mine called me to say he found the perfect bike for me, a '89 Honda Transalp. "A 89? hell that's old" I said.
He said it's the Toyota Land Cruiser of bikes, tough, well built, its what you are looking for.
I did a search read up on them & asked a friend that's been a Honda guy for ever.
I found one in PHX, I love this bike.
I added the crash bars & Pelican case on the rear.
Got to use the bars yesterday, twice I dumped it in soft deep dirt.
Looking forward to miles of riding & backroad trips. When I'm not doing that in the Land Cruiser.

Have about 300 photos from the trip. Mostly I take a shot of the GPS, but not now, strange?!?

But, one more :o)

Here's my '89. Unfarkled for now. Going to add Givi guards and maybe some panniers when the contra fund grows a bit. Am having a blast with the TA. Especially when local riders stop by my office and go 'what is that'?

It looks familiar!
