Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports 2024

The development of the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports away from a high-legged off-road bike to a touring bike with a 19-inch front wheel will be a step in the right direction for most Adventure Sports customers. The majority of them ride mainly on paved roads and are happy about better handling, more stability and confidence when leaning and more accessible thanks to the lower seat height. The electronics and DCT have also been fine-tuned in the background, which means that the new Adventure Sports does a lot of things right. Despite these changes, you don't have to do without off-road passages. Even with the smaller wheel and shorter suspension travel, the Adventure Sports remains ready for adventure.

Superbly responsive, now even more torquey engine

Bassier sound than before

Semi-active suspension as standard

Finely controllable brakes

19-inch front wheel and wider tyres raise cornering performance to a new level

Lower seat height makes the mighty Adventure Sports more accessible

Good wind protection

Tough off-road terrain now more difficult to master

riders over 1.85 m get loud turbulence on the helmet even in the highest windshield position

5 kg more on the ribs than before

Voge Valico 900i DSX 2024

The Voge DS900X is a remarkably well-equipped machine that impresses in many areas, especially considering its price of less than 10,000 CHF/Euro. Despite some compromises in the quality of detail, such as the simple design of the logo and the somewhat hard indicator button, the DS900X offers solid features including modern safety features and comfort elements. The use of renowned brand parts for brakes, suspension and electronics sets it apart from other budget bikes. In addition, its power limit of 95 Horsepower makes it accessible to holders of an A2 driving licence, which makes it particularly attractive for novice riders. Overall, the Voge DS900X offers excellent value for money and could be an interesting option for many beginners as well as price-conscious riders.

Huge range of features included as standard

Attractive price

High-quality parts in terms of engine, suspension and brakes

A2 can be throttled

Attractive design with plenty of comfort

Connectivity and USB C charging socket

No cornering ABS

Some careless design choices in details

Ill-considered positioning of the centre stand

Nervous throttle response at low revs
