New Features of the 2024 Africa Twin
Honda recently announced that in 2024, the Africa Twin CRF1100 would undergo a redesign, featuring a new version with a fresh design and new features, while still maintaining the essence that has contributed to the success of this exceptional motorcycle since its comeback in 2016 with the CRF1000.
Both versions (Standard and Adventure Sports) continue to coexist, featuring colors that respect the history of the motorcycle along with modern, refined, and iconic decorations.
For the standard version, red is now accompanied by touches of blue; the black version is contrasted with silver tones, and the tricolor (blue, white, red) has a complete covering even on the front mudguard.
For the Adventure Sports version, the tricolor edition has a completely blue mudguard, and the black version continues to use golden contrasts in addition to silver.
As usual, matching seats and powerful design elements are present.
Quickly envisioning accessories to complement these versions: handguard extensions (for standard versions), crash bars to enhance the adventurous look and protect the motorcycle, or even a smoked touring windshield that undoubtedly adds an exciting finish!
