2022 Honda NT1100 Unveiled

Honda has unveiled the new Honda NT1100, a sport-touring model based on the Honda Africa Twin. The Honda NT1100 has been designed for comfort, with the technology and performance of modern adventure bikes, but with a bias towards spending time on tarmac adventures. The NT1100 is based on the Honda Africa Twin, so based on the same parallel-twin engine, and shares the same steel frame and aluminium subframe from the Africa Twin, but with changed suspension and bodywork. The NT1100 has 17-inch wheels front and rear, unlike the Africa Twin, and suspension travel has been reduced to 150 mm.
