Honda CRF1000L Africa Twin 2016
La légende est de retour, affirmait Honda avec force - mais la mission est réussie au plus haut point, l'Africa Twin, au nom plutôt encombrant de CRF1000L Africa Twin, est une enduro très maniable et d'une excellente maniabilité, qui fonctionne bien sur tous les terrains. Même sur la terre et les single trails, où une maniabilité simple est évidemment très importante. Avec 95 ch, il lui manque certes 65 ch par rapport à l'élite, mais pour une maniabilité aussi équilibrée, il n'en faut pas plus.
