Make Life an Adventure

Has there ever been a better time to be an adventure-bike rider? And has taking your next vacation on an adventure bike ever looked better either? Honda’s Africa Twin lineup is so good it’s an embarrassment of riches. Technology. Comfort. Reliability you can count on, come rain or shine, continent-crossing journeys or weekend getaways. Features like cruise control and touch-screen technology make it a great tourer, while its rugged construction and off-road refinements let you wander from horizon to horizon on the path less travelled.

And best of all, there are four different Africa Twins to choose from. Our standard Africa Twin is a great choice for serious off-road enthusiasts. For long-distance adventure touring, check out our two Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES models: They offer special features like electronically controlled suspension, an adjustable windscreen, larger fuel tank, heated grips, tubeless tires, and more. Plus, both are available with either a manual transmission or Honda’s automatic DCT transmission, one of the best technical-riding advantages ever.

    PROFESSIONAL RIDER SHOWN

    WELCOME TO DCT

    Honda's Automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission (DCT) is a breakthrough feature that makes riding easier and more fun.

    ENJOY THE FREEDOM

    Our DCT enhances the riding experience by letting you focus on the most rewarding parts of your ride, making each mile even better.

    PADDLE SHIFTING

    Choose Manual Mode, and you can override the automatic shifting on the fly with a pair of handlebar-mounted fingertip shifters.

    BETTER POWER DELIVERY

    Seamless power delivery and no power interruptions mean you avoid momentary traction losses between shifts.

    PROVEN Honda DURABILITY

    Because our DCT is built with steel gears inside, there are no drive belts to slip, break, or burn up, and there’s no torque converter either. They’re as tough and efficient as any manual gearbox.

    SELECTABLE RIDE MODES

    Programmed Ride Modes like Drive, Sport and Manual allow you to adjust the Africa Twin’s ride character. There’s also a special G-Switch for off-road riding, that helps you slide the rear tire under throttle input, to help steer with the rear.

    TRUE ENGINE COMPRESSION BRAKING

    Engine compression braking is key to bike control, especially when entering turns or on technical downhills off-road. Since DCT has manual-type gearbox internals, you get genuine compression braking—and control.

    REAL-WORLD CONVENIENCE

    DCT means no hunting for neutral or reaching for a shifter when you’re standing on the pegs. Plus, your left hand is free to activate a garage-door opener, find a parking key card or pay at a toll booth.

    RACE-PROVEN TECHNOLOGY

    Supercars and Formula 1 use paddle-shift transmissions because they offer the fastest, most efficient shifting and deliver consistent power to the ground.

    LOW-SPEED MANEUVERING

    DCT’s seamless power delivery is a big benefit on steep hills or in low-speed situations.

    STEEP HILLS

    Eliminate the drama that comes with stopping and restarting on a steep incline. DCT lets you twist and go.

    AVOID THE CLUNK

    Ever knock helmets with your passenger when shifting? That won’t happen with DCT.

    1084cc TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE

    The CRF1100L Africa Twin sports one of the best engines ever in an adventure bike. The parallel-twin design is narrow, and delivers torque everywhere from idle to redline. You’ll have more grunt down low, and cruise easy on the open road.

    CRUISE CONTROL

    Here’s one of the worst-kept secrets in the motorcycling world—Honda’s Africa Twins make great long-distance touring bikes. To that end, we’ve equipped our Africa Twin models with cruise control, just like our Gold Wings. Your next adventure really starts a couple of hundred miles away? No problem!

    LONG-TRAVEL FRONT SUSPENSION

    The Africa Twin doesn’t just look like an adventure bike—it’s the real deal. Exhibit A: Check out its long-travel front suspension. The inverted Showa fork is fully adjustable with huge 45mm tubes and 9.1 inches of travel—the most front-end travel in the 1000cc off-road class.

    Apple CarPlay™

    Apple CarPlay™* seamlessly integrates your compatible iPhone®* into your new Africa Twin. That means you can use your iPhone® to access Apple Maps, Apple Music, and other services easily. You’ll have access to weather, playlists and telephone numbers while aboard. Available Bluetooth®**-enabled wireless headsets let you communicate more easily than ever. And best of all, with more apps available every day, Apple CarPlay™ keeps your bike’s technology and convenience on the cutting edge.

    **For using Apple CarPlay, connection to a commercially available Bluetooth headset is necessary. See owner's manual for Bluetooth headset requirements.

    SMARTPHONE SOFTWARE UPDATE

    Updating your Africa Twin’s software helps you get the most out of your bike. Plus, those upgrades now include Android Auto compatibility, so you can use both your smartphone’s Android Auto or Apple CarPlay™ systems to give you navigational help, and more. Installation is easy and free to download—we’ll walk you through all the steps.
