Recently announced by Honda, the New 2020 CRF1100L Africa Twins are adventure bikes to be reckoned with. Let's face it when Honda announced it was being relaunched, it was a big deal. Then when they arrived in 2016 the bikes were a raging success. Now for 2020 Honda have taken the game up a notch. Here's some info and a couple of video's to show you some of the highlights.
A major evolution for Honda’s definitive full-size adventurer: harder-edged off-road performance comes via lighter chassis, slim rally-style bodywork and revised riding position; weight is reduced by 5kg, while engine capacity is increased, boosting power and torque. It’s also EURO5 compliant. A six-axis Inertial Measurement Unit now manages riding modes and HSTC as well as three additional systems - Cornering ABS, Wheelie Control, Rear Lift Control, plus new cornering detection functionality on the DCT version. A full colour 6.5-inch TFT touchscreen incorporates Apple CarPlay® and Bluetooth connectivity. Dual LED headlights feature Daytime Running Lights (DRL) and cruise control is fitted as standard.
