Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2025

Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin 2025

The Honda CRF1100L Africa twin cylinder impresses with its high level of riding comfort and versatility. Thanks to the low seat height and a wide range of clean, but rather conservatively designed Advanced Rider Assistance Systems, it is ideal for road riders and off-road beginners. The proven, finely controllable engine and the cleanly responsive suspension offer a smooth riding experience. The long-distance comfort, including a low, integrated seating position, matches the good-natured character of the machine. The operating concept of the electronics could be more intuitive and requires familiarisation. The ergonomics for standing off-road and the chassis reserves for tougher off-road sections could be improved. The handguards are also not robust enough for intensive off-road use. Overall, however, the Africa twin cylinder is a well-balanced, comfortable touring machine that masters even light off-road terrain with ease.

Ducati Hypermotard 698 Mono 2024

With the Hypermotard 698 Mono, Ducati has produced an incredibly good debut model! The bike takes all the qualities you look for in a road-legal supermoto and raises them to a highly modern and mature level. You won't find a comparable single-cylinder engine these days, while the electronics package rounds off the concept. Yet it is pure, unreasonable and playful - like a real hooligan bike.

Powerful and modern single cylinder

marvellous sound as standard

comprehensive electronics package

fully adjustable, finely responsive suspension

top handling

low weight

brakes with great modulation

Quickshifter at extra cost
