2025 Honda Africa Twin Unveiled

Honda has unveiled the 2025 edition of its flagship adventure touring motorcycle, the CRF1100L Africa Twin, in international markets. Notably, the motorcycle remains the same on the mechanical side with subtle design updates and new colour schemes depending on the variant.

The Africa Twin is internationally available in three variants – standard, ES and Adventure Sports, where the standard and ES come with a 21-inch front with the latter equipped with electronically adjustable suspension. The Adventure Sports, on the other hand, swaps the 21-inch front for a more road-biassed 19-inch front wheel.
