rumoured updates for the 2017 Africa Twin (we have heard/seen the rusting spokes comment before):

THE HONDA CRF1000L Africa Twin will receive a round of minor updates for 2017, according to a source at Honda.

We’ve been told that the Africa Twin will receive a ‘facelift’ that will entail some cosmetic changes and new stainless steel wheel spokes, which we’ve been told are being introduced because some owners are reporting corrosion and problems keeping them clean.

We have also been told that 2017-model Africa Twin may also come with cruise control as standard.

This information hasn’t been officially confirmed yet but, but with the Intermot bike show taking place in two weeks, we should find out more at the start of October.
