Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2018

Nova Africa Twin je prišla točno takšna, kot so jo pričakovali oboževalci: Dobro vodljiv, neagresiven in čudovit sopotnik na potovanjih. Dejstvo, da je tudi videti izjemno dobro, je bil prijeten bonus. Zato ni razloga, da bi Afriko Twin korenito spreminjali; kar je bilo dobro, je ostalo dobro tudi na novem modelu - veliko pa je bilo izboljšanega. Zahvaljujoč sistemu Ride by Wire lahko zdaj pri modelu Africa Twin uživate tudi v načinih zmogljivosti, nadzor vleke pa je mogoče prilagoditi 7-krat (namesto prej 3-krat) in izklopiti. Opcijski menjalnik DCT je še vedno velika uspešnica in zelo zabaven, vendar tudi veliko stane.

Po mojem mnenju KTM 1050 Adventure nadaljuje tam, kjer se je pred nekaj leti končal model 990 Adventure: Približno 100 KM moči, igrivo upravljanje in toliko ali manj elektronike, kolikor je trenutno na voljo. Motor je vse prej kot šibek, ABS in nadzor vleke uravnavata varno in neopazno, upravljanje pa je izjemno zabavno, deloma tudi zaradi razmeroma ozkih pnevmatik. In vse to po ceni, ki jo v ligi velikih potovalnih endurov zaostaja le nekaj konkurentov. Čeprav je žalostno, so se cene obeh 1190 Adventure in predvsem paradnega konja 1290 Super Adventure povzpele na zelo visoko raven. In prav zato je KTM 1050 Adventure morda najbolj skladen med štirimi modeli Adventure.
