Serious off-road performance, lightweight chassis with slim bodywork and a characterful, torque-heavy engine. These are the fundamentals that made the Africa Twin one of the most popular adventure tourers in the world. Combined with the latest technology including riding modes, HSTC, wheelie and rear lift control, and packaged in an unique, aggressive and compact rally-style design.
This bike comes with features such as:
The parallel-twin engine delivers torque everywhere from idle to redline. You have more grunt down low, and can cruise easily on the open road. The narrow layout makes the bike shorter front-to-back. That means the front wheel can tuck in closer to the engine, shortening wheelbase and making the bike more nimble both on and off road.
The DCT delivers consistent, fast and seamless gear changes, with 3 modes of operation available. "MT" gives full manual control, allowing the rider to shift at will. Automatic "D" is ideal for city and highway riding. Automatic "S" offers 3 levels of sportier riding, as the engine revs a little higher before shifting up, and shifts down sooner when decelerating for extra engine braking.
DCT's off-road functionality is enhanced by the "G" switch, that when activated improves the feel for available traction and machine control by reducing the amount of clutch slip during gear changes.
