Andrew Clubb, Editor of Australian Adventure Bike Magazine (AAB) and Dave Darcy of Motorcycle Adventure Dirtbike TV and Editor at Large at AAB test two versions of the 2022 Honda Africa Twin.

In this first of a two part series Dave focusses on testing the standard Africa Twin model and Clubby rides the top of the range Adventure Sport DCT ES.

This detailed review will focus on both bikes' suitability as adventure mounts for Australian conditions. A strong focus of the tests will be on dirt handling.

The test has been broken into two parts due to poor weather conditions that has seen extensive flooding in the areas used for testing the bikes.
