Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2019

The new Africa Twin has come exactly as fans expected: Well controllable, unagitated and a wonderful travelling companion. The fact that it also looks extremely good was a pleasant bonus. So there is no reason to fundamentally change the Africa Twin, what was good remains good on the new one - and much has been improved. Thanks to Ride by Wire, you can now also enjoy performance modes on the Africa Twin, and the traction control can be adjusted 7-fold (instead of 3-fold previously) and switched off. The optional DCT is still a big hit and a lot of fun, but it also costs a lot.

Honda CRF300 Rally 2021

As a classic dual-sport bike, which unfortunately is all too rare these days, the lightweight Honda works very well both on and especially off the paved roads. In contrast to its predecessor, the CRF250 Rally, it has gained about 10 percent in power, but another 10 to 15 hp would be good for it. However, because the lower gears are now shorter, you can feel the increase in power, and the longer sixth gear allows for more relaxed cruising at higher speeds.

Real off-road capability

ample suspension travel and ground clearance

low weight
