With its 19-inch front wheel, the new Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is now much more on-road orientated. So it is high time to make it fit for the big tour with an ergonomics and luggage package from Touratech. Honda has further differentiated the Adventure bike range for the model year 2024. While the standard version of the CRF1100L Africa Twin is still predestined for real off-road adventures, the Adventure Sports sister model is now much more road-orientated with a 19-inch front wheel and shorter suspension travel. Touratech picks up the ball and offers customised accessories that make touring on the Adventure Sports a pure pleasure.
Perfect ergonomics for long distances
With a tank capacity of just under 25 litres, the Adventure Sports is made for marathon stages. Of course, the seating comfort has to be just right, which is why Touratech has developed versions of the tried-and-tested comfort seat that are precisely tailored to this model. The interaction of perfectly harmonised foam hardness, breech-relieving groove, carefully shaped contour and Fresh Touch cover make even hours of riding pure pleasure. The Touratech comfort seat for the Adventures Sports is available in three heights. Aerodynamics play a central role in a well thought-out comfort concept. The Touratech windscreens are sophisticated down to the last detail in this area. Regardless of whether the Adventure Sports rider opts for a particularly touring-oriented high version, a windscreen at the original height or a sporty short shield, they benefit from optimised airflow conditions and correspondingly increased riding pleasure. The Touratech windscreens are available in clear and tinted versions. The removable Evo windscreen spoiler is recommended as a practical add-on for the standard windscreen or Touratech products. The perfect riding position is also a very individual matter. With the Touratech handlebar riser, the handlebars can be positioned 20 millimetres higher, which tall riders in particular will appreciate. Anyone travelling on their Adventure Sports with rugged footwear will love the brake lever extension, which makes it easier to operate the rear brake. Navigation systems can be mounted conveniently in the rider’s view with the GPS mounting adapter for the handlebar clamp.
Customised luggage systems
The full range of Touratech aluminium pannier systems is available for the new Africa Twin Adventure Sports. The basis in each case is the customised stainless steel rack. With the aluminium cases, there is a choice between the sturdy ZEGA Mundo, the particularly high-quality ZEGA Pro or the high-end solution with quick release ZEGA Evo. For riders who prefer a symmetrical rear, there is the special ZEGA Evo X system, in which the pannier is cut out on the exhaust side. With the exception of the Mundo, all ZEGA series are available in both silver and black anodised finishes. If you want to lash a rack pack to the Adventure Sports, you can use the Touratech luggage plate. Numerous other tried and tested soft luggage solutions such as tank bags, seat bench bags and rear bags can of course also be used on the Adventure Sports.
Protectors – important not only for off-roaders
The Touratech Defensa hand guards offer protection for the handlebar fittings with their solid aluminium bracket and effective weather protection. The extremely reduced Leverguard version is aimed purely at road riders. The engine crash bar is robust and made entirely of stainless steel, giving the Adventure Sports a pithy adventure look. Available in black or silver, the bar can be fitted with a practical tool box on request, which allows even large tool kits to be transported with a favourable centre of gravity.
