CRF-1000 Africa twin

[Q-Ball]

So after my shock and disappointment that Honda have ditched the v-twin for a parallel twin,I'm beginning to warm very quickly to this new bike from Honda. Only time will tell if this new model will carry legendary name aswell as the last incarnation,it certainly looks the part!
Now Honda are using other countries to make parts of there bikes and in some cases the whole bike,could this be the downfall of yet another Honda,which could be fantastic like Hondas of old!
I myself really hope it's as good as it looks as I will most certainly be having a test ride,and may even get one at a later date once Honda have fixed any teething problems.

Certainly looks good, time will tell on the quality....

Not impressed with the smallish fuel tank though..

Not a bad looking machine. Shame about the unnecessarily machos ice silencer though.
