Result

The new Africa Twin is a strong piece of motorcycle! The Adventure Sports has been trimmed even more for road and is now one of the ultimate adventure bikes for the trip to the North Cape. It is technically fully equipped and, apart from the performance, clearly belongs to the upper class. The only points of criticism are the fiddly operation and the somewhat heavy weight, which many competitors also have to struggle with. Otherwise, a super cool machine with majestic charisma and just as much riding feeling - terrific!
 
The test bike was once again provided to us by motofun (www.motofun.de) from Kaltenkirchen north of Hamburg. There, Adventure Sports and Standard AT will be available as demonstrators. Test drives there in the Schmalfeld curves are a real pleasure - let's go to motofun and salute the boss Nico!

The AT remains true to itself

Which question you should seriously ask yourself: Yes, the normal chassis has been good for Honda. It's fully adjustable - but do you really do that? The electronic chassis of the Africa Twin Sports Adventure is an advantage: it can be fine-tuned while driving. This extra makes sense even for desert kings.

One last lap around the bike. It has remained good, and has also improved. Surgery succeeded. The Honda AT has remained true to itself: it still manages to convince the great feat with the overall concept without outstanding individual achievements. However, if you don't need the big cutlery with all the drums and drums, you don't have to change trains, but can continue the pre-model.

There is still so much to experience.

The test bike was provided to us by Motofun (Kaltenkirchen near Hamburg).
