Here’s the first official pic of the 2018 Africa Twin Big Tank (it won’t be called that… should be, but won’t…)

We told you some time ago that Honda was bringing out a seriously updated version of the hugely popular Africa Twin Adventure Bike and what we have here (above) might well be the first official look at the bike courtesy of Honda itself.

We’ve lightened the image (below) so that you can see it better. There’s understandably little details about the new models but from what we’ve been told the new bike will get a larger tank (up from 18 to 22 litres), a newly-sculpted enduro one-piece seat, a revised set of more bulging LED headlights, a more upswept exhaust and minor changes to the bodywork.

What do you reckon? Is this what the Africa Twin needs to stay competitive in the large Adventure Bike sector?
