Six-speed manual transmission
For purists, a conventional six-speed manual transmission with a traditional handlebar-mounted clutch lever comes on the standard Africa Twin and Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES models. This gearbox features Honda’s proven durability and is also slightly lighter than the DCT option.
Cruise control
All Africa Twin models come factory-equipped with cruise control for touring, and you’ll thank us after those high-mileage rides.
Low center of gravity
By placing heavy components like the battery near the bike's center of gravity and using a compact engine, we've created a platform for excellent handling.
Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™
Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ are standard across all models, connecting your mobile device to provide access to texts, navigation, and more. Wireless Bluetooth® connection is also available for audio use with optional headsets.
Ergonomics for endurance

Unicam® engine design
The Unicam® engine design, with its compact cylinder-head layout, allows for optimal engine placement and superior performance in terms of both handling-related weight distribution and airflow-related horsepower. Talk about a win-win.
Electronic preload adjustment
Adjusting the preload on the Adventure Sports ES models is a breeze. With four settings tailored to suit your needs, you won’t have to wrestle with hard-to-reach collars. All adjustments are controlled electronically from a convenient handlebar switch.
Cornering ABS
Controlled by the 6-axis IMU, we designed the intelligent Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) to apply the correct amount of braking based on the rider’s lean angle.
Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)
HSTC lets you customize the bike’s power delivery to match conditions or rider skill level. It has seven different settings for various terrains and allows the bike to progress as you do.
Rally-type fairing
Proper fairings are essential for long-distance riding, and we spent hours perfecting both Africa Twin models. The Adventure Sports ES features a specially designed cowl shape and revised side deflectors to minimize high-speed highway buffeting. At the same time, the standard Africa Twin is built for enhanced off-road agility.
Comfortable ES seat
TFT touchscreen display
A 6.5-inch TFT touchscreen instrument panel offers glove-friendly controls with three displays, allowing you to view a variety of information based on your preferences.
