Honda is anticipated to roll out major updates to its flagship adventure bike, the CRF 1100 Africa Twin, for the 2024 model-year. Reports suggest that the new and updated Africa Twin will sport refinements to the engine, chassis, and overall setup, appearing to cater to more road-focused riding than before.
A recent article by German motorcycling publication Motorroad Online highlights technical data on the 2024 Honda Africa Twin filed to the Swiss Federal Roads Office. According to the report, the 2024 model will receive a modest torque bump, with 78.4 pound-feet (112 Newton-meters) of torque on tap, as against the outgoing model’s 73.5 pound-feet (105 Newton-meters). Perhaps even more importantly, the updated model produces peak torque much sooner in the rev range, at 5,500 rpm, as against the outgoing model’s 6,250 rpm. For reference, it’s reported to have the same peak power at 102 horsepower.
