The Honda Africa Twin in Africa. Where else?

The launch is happening in the Cape right now. What do we think?

Seems I might have been wrong about this bike, positive reports so far about it's offroad capabilities

+ 1

Maar dit is 'n baie mooi bike, dink ons gaan binnekort baie van hulle op die pad sien,

As ek BMW was het ek somer dadelik produksie gestop op die GS 800 reeks, dink hulle gaan moet specials gooi om ontslae te raak van huidige stock.

My future bike for sure.
HRC colours of course.
The more I see it the more I like it.

I Like. I would toss that silencer though. It looks like an aqualung!

When everybody started talking about this bike quite a while ago, I was not very interested. I thought, "you are all expecting a Ktm 990 with a pair of wings on, that will never happen, Honda doesn't do exciting". Well, it seems like it IS a Ktm 990 with a pair of wings on. Honda may just have built an amazing bike. Can not wait to hear what that parallel twin with a full exhaust sounds like.

2-Stroke, enough of the suspense, were you at the launch?

Well D if you not there is your dad sensing you pics. Looks much better with the right rubber on. You ous are keeping us hanging here waiting for scraps like a dog at the dinner table.
