The legendary Africa Twin was discontinued in 2003, but remains a popular choice for Adventure Riders. Unfortunately, they never imported the Africa Twin to the US or Canada. Potential specs reported by Motorrad describe a new Africa Twin with a 1000cc Parallel-Twin instead of a V-Twin (apparently for cost saving purposes).
I think the topic is the difference between the Africa Twin and the KTM 1190 R. Not the merits of simple carbureted bikes vs newer KTM's, BMW's, S10's, Tiger's, Strom's, Multi's etc etc. #19
Vs the Africa Twin: 1) Performance! The 1190's have 150 HP, will do 0-60 in 2.7 seconds, the 1/4 mile in 10.2 seconds and 155 mph. Granted we will likely not need that level of performance, but who would not want it??? The AT with 100 HP and 115 MPH top speed is likely adequate, but I was not hoping for adequate when I selected my dream bike.
