PRODUCT REVIEW I
I
f you're an adventure rider, you probably
already know about Touratech. They've
been making high-quality parts and ac-
cessories for decades, and while they make
items for a wide range of motorcycles, their
specialty lies in the adventure market. In
2012, after years of selling other aftermarket
suspension brands, they decided to take their
vast knowledge of adventure motorcycles
and build their own suspension that was
focused strictly on ADV bikes. The result is
highly specialized suspension engineered
by adventure motorcyclists for adventure
motorcyclists. With a little help from Tractive,
Touratech now offers a comprehensive line
of suspension components for just about
every adventure bike on the market today,
including plug-and-play options for models
that come equipped with active and semi-ac-
tive suspension. We purchased their top-of-
the-line Extreme shock for the Honda Africa
Twin and put it to the test.
TOURATECH EXTREME
TouraTech's
Extreme rear
shock is designed
specifically for ADV
motorcycles and
ADV riding.
