Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports 2019

For many, the new Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin Adventure Sports is the true Africa Twin, which, with a larger tank, longer suspension travel and higher windshield, takes the long journey even more seriously than the normal Africa Twin already does. The chassis works like a litter, the seating position allows hundreds of kilometres at a stretch - according to Honda 525 on one tank of fuel. However, the agility and manoeuvrability of the normal Africa Twin suffer. With the more attractive appearance of the Adventure Sports, Honda has hit the bull's-eye again: there is currently no more beautiful adventure bike.

powerful, unagitated engine

comfortable chassis

comfortable seating position

superb looks

good brakes

large fuel tank

performance modes

optional DCT

Not quite optimal wind protection

no cruise control

high saddle difficult to climb for smaller riders

ABS on front wheel cannot be switched off

Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin Adventure Sports DCT 2020

Who said you need 150 hp or more to be in the "upper class"? The Adventure Sports offers everything a comfortable touring enduro needs, and with its electronic chassis and all conceivable safety features, it needs fear no comparison. Ready for the big tour and, thanks to a range of well over 400 kilometres, also for really long stages, you don't have to stop at all on unpaved roads thanks to the ample suspension travel, and you'll get further than many might think.

powerful engine

wonderfully functioning semi-active chassis

sophisticated electronic driving aids

touchscreen colour display

good ergonomics

long-distance capability

almost "too good" wind protection

confusing flood of buttons on the left handlebar

weight

the price, even if it may be justified
