Honda updated their uber popular Africa Twin for 2020 with a raft of improvements including a larger capacity engine, more power, a 6-axis IMU, loads of electronics plus Apple Car Play. The three models each comes with a standard manual gearbox or DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) and there's a standard and more off-road oriented bike, then two versions of the Adventure Sports. One came with semi-active suspension.
For the calendar year of 2020 BikeSocial's three brigadiers; Steve Rose, Michael Mann and Luke Brackenbury all put the miles in and so took 48 minutes of their time to discuss the main positive bits and the not-so-brilliant parts.
