Features

1084cc liquid-cooled Unicam®?parallel-twin engine The parallel-twin engine provides impressive torque throughout the entire rev range, whether you're navigating off-road trails or cruising down open highways. The 24YM features revised valve timing and increased compression to maintain the engine’s peak power output under heavy loads. The new layout allows the front wheel to tuck in closer to the engine, shortening the wheelbase and increasing the bike’s agility both on and off-road.
Throttle By Wire (TBW) TBW technology offers precise and responsive acceleration control. The system electronically manages throttle input for smooth and consistent power delivery over changing surfaces. Choose from four distinct riding modes – Tour, Urban, Gravel and Off-Road – and tailor the throttle response to your riding style.
Showa EERA™ Electronically controlled suspension All Africa Twin ES variants include Showa EERA™ suspension that tailors damping and spring preload to suit different weights and riding conditions. It offers four settings—SOFT, HARD, MID, and OFF-ROAD-allowing you to adjust the suspension to match the terrain. The rear spring preload can be electronically adjusted for smooth handling under various loads, with presets for solo riding, solo with luggage, two-up, and two-up with luggage.
Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)??
Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)?? HSTC allows you to customise power delivery based on road conditions for optimal traction and stability, no matter where your adventure takes you. With seven different torque settings, you can fine-tune the bike’s response to match any terrain or riding style. Go from asphalt to dirt roads with the press of a button!
Electric suspension??
Electric suspension?? For those with a more adventurous spirit the Africa Twin is now available with electronically controlled suspension EERA as a factory option.
Cruise control
Cruise control The Africa Twin is built for open roads and rugged trails. Cruise control enhances your touring experience by allowing you to enjoy the scenery when your path is clear without worrying about constant throttle management.
