HISTORY
The Honda Africa Twin is not a vehicle that has only been developed recently; they have had a rich history spanning decades.
The Honda Africa Twin is a dual sport motorcycle made by Honda in four versions, from 1988 to 1989 as the 650 cc (40 cu in) XRV650 V-twin, then from 1990 to 2000 as the 750 cc (46 cu in) XRV750T V -Twin, then from 2016 to 2019 as the 1,000 cc (61 cu in) parallel-twin CRF1000L and from 2020 to present as the CRF1100L.
NEXT UP
the Africa Twin is expected to introduce a more powerful engine in 2024 Honda Africa Twin, possibly with more significant displacement or better performance characteristics. It can improve the bike’s power delivery and overall performance.
We can’t detail what Honda is working on for the new Africa Twin, but weight reduction will likely be considered. Honda could reduce the bike’s weight by using lightweight materials or redesigning components to improve handling and maneuverability.
Through this design visual, we want to show that Honda’s luxurious and ergonomic design can improve the bike’s overall strategy, perhaps with improved aerodynamics and updated bodywork. Ergonomics can be optimized for rider comfort, including adjustable handlebars and seat options.
COLORS UPDATE
The new 2024 Honda Africa Twin color will be more attractive if it dominates the blue color, or the combination of red and gold will appear very different from the previous model. It is essential to attract attention at first glance besides performance, as the last color was dominated by white with a combination of red and blue.
PERFORMANCE
the Twin model available in 2023 offers a 1084cc Twin-Cylinder engine. Are they not going to upgrade that? It will receive an answer only when the official model is announced.
The engines used are the best engines ever seen in adventure bikes thanks to the experience and history that have led them to have a narrow parallel-twin design and produce torque anywhere from idle to redline. You’ll have more of a grunt and glide effortlessly down the open road.
