REVIEWS AND COMMON PROBLEMS WITH 2022 HONDA CRF1000L ADVENTURE SPORTS

The range-topping Africa Twin Adventure Sports is powered by a liquid-cooled 998 cc parallel twin engine that produces 93.9 bike at just 7,500 rpm and maximum torque at 6,000 rpm.

Features include the following:

Steel frame and sub-frame with twin spars
Dual 310 mm undulating discs up front with four piston Nissin calipers
256 mm wavy disc with Nissin single piston caliper at the rear
Rear dual-channel ABS with an off mode
45 mm Showa adjustable upside-down fork with 224 mm travel
a rear adjustable shock with 240 mm of travel
7-stage traction control with an off position
Tour, Urban, Gravel, and Custom riding modes LCD dash LED lighting, heated grips
Helping hand and slipper clutch
Adjustable seat width of 900 mm to 920 mm; six-speed transmission with gear position indicator
For 2018, Honda upgraded the already-impressive Africa Twin adventure bike, including the 998 cc parallel twin engine and optional automatic transmission, then added a larger fuel tank, taller suspension, and ample protection to create the Adventure Sports (ATAS).

It has a 5,4-litre larger fuel tank, a 50-mm higher seat, 20-mm more travel, an 80-mm taller fixed screen, engine bars, heated grips, and a larger belly pan than the Africa Twin, but it is 13 kg heavier.

The 2018 updates to the original Adventure Sports model include a new dashboard, improved mid range from a new airbox, a 2.3 kg lighter Lithium battery, improved footpegs, four riding modes, improved exhaust sound, auto-cancelling indicators, and seven levels of traction control.

As before, the £950 Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) automatic transmission adds 10 kg to the vehicle’s curb weight. The front wire spoked 21″ wheel has a Dunlop Trailmax 90/80 tire while the rear 18″ wheel has a 150/70.

Accessories consist of knobby tires, a center stand, a low seat, LED fog lights, panniers, a top box, a quickshifter, and a sports silencer.

Modification 10 - HONDA CRF1100L AFRICA TWIN 2022

The Akrapovi Racing system is intended for riders that are looking for maximum performance. When compared to the factory exhaust system, the race system is lighter and features great production quality, high-tech materials, and, of course, increased engine performance mixed with genuine racing sound output. The double-flow muffler is a one-of-a-kind blend of a hexagonal design and a more traditional rear endcap, capped with a long-lasting titanium muffler sleeve and a strong carbon-fibre clamp.

ECU remapping is suggested for optimal performance, throttle response, and durability.
