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.

Compared to the sporty single-cylinder competition from KTM or Husqvarna, which you first have to make suitable for touring with a windshield, larger tank, etc., the Twin offers a smoother ride and thus better long-distance capability, and compared to most two-cylinder competitors, with the exception of KTM's 790 Adventure, it offers more off-road capability. In any case, the Tenere 700 has become a real enrichment for the touring enduro segment, so it was worth the wait.
