CRF1100 AFRICA TWIN ADVENTURE SPORTS

True Adventure Never Ends.

The new Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES is something special. More mid-range torque for strong overtaking acceleration. A 19-inch front wheel, wearing a 110/80-19 tyre, lower seat height and Showa-EERA™ Electronic Suspension work together to deliver impeccable on-road handling. And, to make full use of the 24.8L fuel tank, a new fairing and screen provide wind protection for those long, enjoyable days in the saddle. Which is just what this bike is built for.

Torque Up

We’ve given the OHC liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine 7% more torque, with much stronger performance off the bottom and through the middle of the rev-range. It’s immediately noticeable with the first twist of the throttle. And, thanks to higher compression ratio of 10.5:1, new valve timing and updated intake there’s the same 75kW (101hp) peak power and more in the mid-range. The Throttle By Wire has been updated for even more precise control. And the exhaust is new for improved performance and a richer, more muscular note as revs rise.

Confident Electronic Control

7-level Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) – managed by IMU for smooth intervention – monitors rear wheel traction and gathers up drive on- or off-road. 3-level Wheelie Control gives just the front wheel lift you want, while cornering ABS inspires full braking confidence. Four default riding modes, URBAN, TOUR, GRAVEL and OFF-ROAD are set ready but you can go fully custom with 2 USER modes and adjust the levels of Engine Power, Engine Brake and HSTC to personal preference.

Special Features

19-inch Front Wheel

The new, smaller diameter wheel plus wider 110/80-19 tyre offer increased front-end grip and feel, alongside improved manoeuvrability at all speeds.

6-Axis IMU Control

The Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) measures in real-time the exact riding conditions of the bike for precise management of HSTC, Wheelie Control and Cornering ABS, Cornering Lights and much more.

TFT Touch Screen Display

6.5-inch, full colour touch screen control of a range of features including riding modes, with Bluetooth as well as Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® smartphone connectivity for navigation, calls and audio.

Refined Performance

Two up and loaded you need torque for effortless overtaking. The engine now has 7% more torque through the midrange, thanks to higher compression ratio and optimised intake and exhaust.

All-Day Aerodynamics

We’ve sculpted the new upper fairing to channel airflow around the upper body, reducing fatigue on longer journeys. The screen height adjusts through 5 stages for flexible wind protection.

Advanced Riding Technology

Four default riding modes cover most situations, and you can go fully custom with 2 additional User modes. The DCT option also feature G-Switch, for more direct traction off-road.
