TORRANCE, CA – Honda is bringing back an adventure model known as the Africa Twin, which will be in U.S. dealer showrooms in early 2016. Only teaser photos were released today when Honda revealed the all-new CRF1000F Africa Twin.
Honda’s original XRV650 Africa Twin originally debuted in 1989 and was later followed by the XRV750, which was produced through 2003.
In its press release, Honda noted, “(I)n a first for the category, the Africa Twin will feature the option of a new evolution of Honda’s Automatic Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) technology, which remains unique to Honda in motorcycling. This latest evolution of DCT has been specifically developed and programmed to provide the off-road ability with which the Africa Twin is synonymous.
“The all-new CRF1000L Africa Twin is set to redefine expectations of just what a large-capacity adventure motorcycle can and should be capable of, both on and off-road, and it opens an entirely new chapter in Honda’s illustrious history of dual-purpose motorcycles made for true adventure.”
