The Africa Twin is said to be one of the indifferent adventure bikes out there. Unlike the others, the bike is definitely much better in terms of its appearance with its large dimensions and subtle designs. The LED headlamps with DRLs are designed nicely whereas the golden shock absorbers along with the huge gap between the front wheel and the fairing certainly puts the bike on its edge.

The bike features a 999.11 cc twin-cylinder engine producing a total of 87 hp and 91 Nm of torque.The engine has a 270 degree phased crankshaft. The engine is extremely smooth and it does not produce unwanted sounds.

The Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) is the main point of the model. It has six ratios and is super comfortable. In S Mode, the riders can choose either S1, S2 and S3 in terms of aggresiveness. The gearbox shifts at higher rpm and gears are held onto for a longer period.
