A 6.5-inch Thin Film Transistor (TFT) instrument touch panel features three displays and can show a multitude of information, depending on your needs.

Revolutionizing every ride

Six-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission

Six-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission

The Africa Twin DCT and Adventure Sports ES DCT models feature a robust, steel-gear transmission that can be operated manually with paddle shifters or left in fully automatic mode, where it shifts entirely for you. This truly is the future of two-wheeled transmissions.

Parallel-twin engine layout

Parallel-twin engine layout

Thanks to the parallel-twin engine layout, the bike's front wheel can tuck in closer to the engine. This shortens the wheelbase, making the bike more agile.

270-degree-phase crank

270-degree-phase crank

Most twins use a 180-degree crank, but the Africa Twin family has a 270-degree design. This setup provides a unique power delivery that’s easier to modulate in terrain where traction is challenging, not to mention a unique sound.

Selectable ABS

Selectable ABS

These bikes come with a three-mode Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS): On-Road, Off-Road, and a rear ABS removable mode that can be turned off for dirt riding.

Semi-double-cradle frame

Semi-double-cradle frame

The semi-double-cradle lightweight steel frame is similar in design to those used on our Rally factory racebike—a machine designed to perform in the most challenging conditions with a history of winning the Dakar Rally twice.

Tubeless tires

Tubeless tires

Tubeless tires are standard on all four Africa Twin variations. They provide a cooler-running tire and a wide selection of adventure bike rubber. Flat tire repairs are also much easier.

Riding modes

Riding modes

Both models offer six selectable riding modes: Tour, Urban, Gravel, Off-Road, User 1, and User 2. The last two allow you to customize them to your individual preferences.

Throttle-by-wire
Accessorized European Model Shown

Throttle-by-wire

Our throttle-by-wire system expands the ADV’s versatility with seven levels of Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) and four power delivery modes: Tour, Urban, Gravel, and User, which can be custom programmed.

Large fuel tanks

Large fuel tanks

Both standard Africa Twin models feature 5-gallon fuel tanks, while our two Adventure Sports ES models increase that capacity to 6.6 gallons for those of you looking to super-size your adventures.

Narrow subframe

Narrow subframe

The aluminum subframe is removable for servicing and repairs. Compared to previous AT models, the width has been reduced by 40mm for a narrower feel between the rider’s legs, making it more agile in challenging terrain.

Athletic riding position

Athletic riding position

Adventure riding requires nimble maneuvering on a slim bike. The peg-bar-seat triangle offers the perfect position for agile handling on challenging trails.
