2018 HONDA AFRICA T WIN ADVENTURE SPORTS
FIRST TEST
P104
So we were anxious to ride
the new Africa Twin Adven-
ture Sports for the first time,
and curious, too: Would we
like the new AT Sports as
much as the previous one?
Or would the nostalgia of the
simple greatness of the Africa
Twin haunt us for eternity?
UPGRADES
The Adventure Sports
(CRF1000L2) is like our old
Africa Twin, just more. The
biggest Africa Twin to date,
the L2 boasts more of every-
thing. This is a bike intent on
taking riders further off the
beaten path and for longer journeys.
If you're not into increased suspension travel, a taller seat
height and a larger fuel tank of the Adventure Sports, don't worry;
the 2018 Africa Twin (L1) won't get the girth.
So, when it comes to deciding which Africa Twin—the standard
or the sport—to consider in 2018, get ready to take a lot of notes.
Here's our breakdown on everything new in Africa Twin land.

you need to know
is right here but
with a new look.
