Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin-based NT1100 revealed: Key highlights
Honda has revealed the new 2022 NT1100 for the global markets. The new motorcycle bridges the gap between the 750 touring range and the flagship Honda Gold Wing.
It features the time-tested Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin as its base and comes out as a refreshing addition to the touring category that is currently ruled by adventure bikes.
