Power is now provided by a 998 cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin that delivers 94bhp at 7,500rpm and 98 Nm (72.2 lb-ft) of torque at 6,000rpm. The powerhouse can be paired with either a simple six-speed gearbox or Honda’s new DCT unit. Plus, it’s got a slim profile, Selectable Torque Control, Drive and Sport riding modes, and switchable ABS too – making it perfect for an adventure.

This first Adventure Roads journey will set a template for similar epic Honda-powered adventures in the months and years ahead – and we can’t wait to see where they head next.
