    2027 Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES DCT Pearl White

    Tech that loves to travel

    Six-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission 

    The Africa Twin DCT and Adventure Sports ES DCT models feature a robust, steel-gear transmission that can be operated manually with paddle shifters or left in a fully automatic mode, where it shifts entirely for you. Enhanced logic provides smoother low-speed control and more natural gear changes. 

    Cruise control

    All Africa Twin models come factory-equipped with cruise control for touring, and you’ll thank us after those high-mileage rides.

    Low center of gravity

    By placing heavy components like the battery near the bike's center of gravity and using a compact engine, we've created a platform for excellent handling. 

    Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™

    Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ are standard across all models, connecting your mobile device to provide access to texts, navigation, and more. Wireless Bluetooth® connection is also available for audio use with optional headsets.

    Features may include:

    1084cc twin-cylinder engine

    • Our narrow 1084cc Unicam® parallel-twin engine delivers torque smoothly throughout the rpm range, making it great for everything from off-road riding to all-day highway cruising.

    Unicam® engine design

    • The Unicam® engine design, with its compact cylinder-head layout, allows for optimal engine placement and superior performance in terms of both handling-related weight distribution and airflow-related horsepower. Talk about a win-win.

    Parallel-twin engine layout

    • Thanks to the parallel-twin engine layout, the bike's front wheel can tuck in closer to the engine. This shortens the wheelbase, making the bike more agile.

    Refined air intake

    • An innovative twin intake system supplies a redesigned airbox equipped with dual vertical filtration elements, ensuring exceptional engine performance even during prolonged use in dusty environments.

    10.5:1 compression ratio

    • With a compression ratio of 10.5:1 and midrange-tuned valve timing, horsepower is increased throughout the rpm range, which is hard not to love.

    Large exhaust pipes

    • Increasing the diameter of the muffler-exit pipes on both models improves performance and sound quality.

    Compact dual-catalyzer exhaust

    • Using the same muffler-valve technology as our CBR1000RR Superbike, the exhaust helps lower emissions while aiding rideability and increasing power output.

    270-degree-phase crank

    • Most twins use a 180-degree crank, but the Africa Twin family has a 270-degree design. This setup provides a unique power delivery that’s easier to modulate in terrain where traction is challenging, not to mention a unique sound.

    Dry-sump engine

    • A dry-sump engine design is really the only viable option for a big adventure bike. The more compact sump increases ground clearance, eliminating the main vulnerability of a conventional wet sump powerplant.

    Long-travel front suspension

    • The standard models come equipped with a fully adjustable 45mm Showa® inverted fork, offering an impressive 9.1 inches of travel—the most in the 1000cc ADV class. The Adventure Sports ES models feature 8.3 inches of front travel, ideally suited to complement the more street-oriented 19-inch front wheel.

    Selectable ABS

    • Both models feature a three-mode Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS), allowing you to choose between On-Road, Off-Road, or a rear-ABS delete mode for enhanced performance during more aggressive dirt riding.

    Low center of gravity

    • By placing heavy components like the battery near the bike's center of gravity and using a compact engine, we've created a platform for excellent handling.

    Cornering ABS

    • Controlled by the 6-axis IMU, we designed the intelligent Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) to apply the correct amount of braking based on the rider’s lean angle.

    Electronically controlled suspension

    • The Adventure Sports ES models come equipped with advanced Showa EERA® (Electronically Equipped Ride Adjustment) suspension. Fed by the bike’s 6-axis IMU, it continuously adjusts damping—refreshing every millisecond—to match the terrain and your inputs. Choose from Soft, Mid, Hard, Off-Road, or User settings, and easily fine-tune preload directly from the handlebars.

    Semi-double-cradle frame

    • The lightweight semi-double-cradle steel frame is similar in design to those found on our factory HRC Rally race bike—a machine built for peak performance in the most challenging conditions with a history of winning the Dakar Rally twice.

    Steel frame

    • This frame is almost 4 pounds lighter than its predecessor, and it has a stiffer steering head designed for added feedback and improved handling.

    Four-piston calipers

    • Twin four-piston front brake calipers deliver strong stopping performance, and their radial-mount design increases stiffness, improving feel and control.

    Lightweight swingarm

    • Thanks to technology developed for our CRF450R motocrossers, the swingarm is both lightweight and sturdy enough to handle the demands of the Africa Twin family.

    Hollow steel axles

    • Large-diameter hollow steel axles are used in the front and rear. They are extremely strong, durable, and lightweight, a combination that could describe just about everything on this bike.

    Rear suspension

    • The standard Africa Twin models feature fully adjustable rising-rate Pro-Link® rear suspension with 8.7 inches of rear-wheel travel. In comparison, the Adventure Sports ES models are equipped with electronic preload adjustment and offer 7.9 inches of travel.

    Electronic preload adjustment

    • Adjusting the preload on the Adventure Sports ES models is a breeze. With four settings tailored to suit your needs, you won’t have to wrestle with hard-to-reach collars. All adjustments are controlled electronically from a convenient handlebar switch.

    Tires and wheels

    • All Africa Twin models have wire-spoked wheels. The standard models feature 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels designed for better off-road performance, while the Adventure Sports ES models get a more road-focused 19-inch front wheel and wider rims.

    Tubeless tires

    • Tubeless tires are standard on all four Africa Twin variations. They provide a cooler-running tire and a wide selection of adventure bike rubber. Flat tire repairs are also much easier.

    Ride modes

    • Both models offer six selectable riding modes: Tour, Urban, Gravel, Off-Road, User 1, and User 2—all managed through the 6.5-inch touchscreen TFT display. The last two can be customized to your individual preferences.

    Six-speed automatic Dual-Clutch Transmission

    • The Africa Twin DCT and Adventure Sports ES DCT models feature a robust six-speed steel-gear dual-clutch transmission that can operate in fully automatic mode or be manually controlled with paddle shifters. The improved transmission logic allows for smoother control at low speeds and more natural gear changes.

    Six-speed manual transmission

    • For purists, a conventional six-speed manual transmission with a traditional handlebar-mounted clutch lever comes on the standard Africa Twin and Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES models. This gearbox features Honda’s proven durability and is also slightly lighter than the DCT option.

    Water pump

    • The water pump is behind the cover and driven by a balancer shaft, so there is no need for external hoses that could snag or rupture in a fall.

    Throttle by wire

    • Electronics are anchored by a six-axis IMU that oversees the throttle-by-wire system, expanding the Africa Twin’s versatility. It provides seven levels of Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) and four power delivery modes: Tour, Urban, Gravel, and User, which can be custom programmed.

    Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)

    • HSTC lets you customize the bike’s power delivery to match conditions or rider skill level. It has seven different settings for various terrains and allows the bike to progress as you do.

    Wheelie control

    • Front and rear wheel-speed sensors work with the Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) system to provide three levels of wheelie control. The system can also be manually turned off.

    G-switch

    • All Africa Twin DCT models feature a refined G-switch system that helps improve control while riding off-road by reducing clutch slip during throttle use. This is especially vital for navigating tough and technical terrain.

    Lightweight lithium-ion battery

    • We used a lightweight lithium-ion battery to reduce the bike’s overall sprung mass for improved handling. It also happens to hold a charge four times longer than a conventional battery.

    Rally-type fairing

    • Proper fairings are essential for long-distance riding, and we spent hours perfecting both Africa Twin models. The Adventure Sports ES features a specially designed cowl shape and revised side deflectors to minimize high-speed highway buffeting. At the same time, the standard Africa Twin is built for enhanced off-road agility.

    Full accessory lineup

    • Make your new Africa Twin even more yours with a full range of Honda accessories—33 for the standard model and 29 for the Adventure Sports ES. Included in these are a centerstand, engine guard, rally-style luggage, various seat options, enduro footpegs, and much more.

    Large fuel tanks

    • Both standard Africa Twin models feature 5-gallon fuel tanks, while our two Adventure Sports ES models increase that capacity to 6.6 gallons for those of you looking to super-size your adventures.

    Optional aluminum luggage

    • Our three-piece hard luggage set is essential for every traveler. The bags have a weather-resistant lining, and the largest can accommodate a full-face helmet.

    Tall handlebar

    • Fitting tall handlebars to both models opens up the cockpit, working with the seat and windscreen to create a comfortable rider triangle for long rides.

    Tapered aluminum handlebars

    • Our aluminum handlebars are lighter and more flexible than steel handlebars of the same size. They are designed to taper from a thin diameter under the outer grip area to a thicker section at the center for optimal flex and rigidity.

    Narrow seat

    • We took extra care to ensure that the standard Africa Twin’s seat is as narrow as possible. This design makes it easier to maneuver the bike at low speeds and to put a foot on the ground when stopping. Additionally, the recontoured foam enhances comfort and support for those long hours spent in the saddle.

    Comfortable ES seat

    • The Adventure Sports ES models come equipped with a reshaped seat that has improved foam density, providing more comfort when racking up those highway miles.

    Narrow subframe

    • The aluminum subframe is removable for servicing and repairs, and its narrow width gives the bike a slimmer feel between the rider’s legs, making it more agile in challenging terrain.

    Biaxial counterbalancer

    • Using counterbalancing elements on two axes, we have been able to cancel out a lot of the engine vibrations, resulting in a smooth ride that is easier over long distances.

    Athletic riding position

    • Adventure riding requires nimble maneuvering on a slim bike. Each model has been designed with an optimized peg-bar-seat triangle to suit its specific purpose. The standard model provides agile handling for tackling challenging terrain, while the Adventure Sports ES offers confidence-inspiring comfort on paved roads.

    Cruise control

    • All Africa Twin models come factory-equipped with cruise control for touring, and you’ll thank us after those high-mileage rides.

    TFT touchscreen display

    • A 6.5-inch TFT touchscreen instrument panel offers glove-friendly controls with three displays, allowing you to view a variety of information based on your preferences.

    Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™

    • Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ are standard across all models, connecting your mobile device to provide access to texts, navigation, and more. Wireless Bluetooth® connection is also available for audio use with optional headsets.

    Our Showroom and Inventory hub is the starting point for shopping Republic Powersports Austin. We are a franchised powersports dealership in Kyle serving the greater Austin metro, with confirmed franchise relationships for Honda, Suzuki, Polaris, Can-Am, Sea-Doo and Stark Future. Across those franchises, our product categories include motorcycles, ATVs, side-by-sides and UTVs, personal watercraft, dual-sport and enduro motorcycles, and electric dirt bikes. This page helps you understand what you can shop through our Austin location, how to use our live inventory tools, and how the rest of our dealership supports the purchase process.

    Inventory changes as units arrive, move between locations, are traded, or are sold. That is why we use our live showroom and inventory pages for current unit-level information instead of publishing fixed counts, VIN totals, model-year quantities, prices, or promises that a particular vehicle will always be available. Start with the live listings, then use our Sales team as the current source for the specific unit, configuration, condition, pricing and availability you are considering.

    Shop New Inventory by Confirmed Franchise

    Our confirmed Austin franchise lineup gives shoppers several different ways to approach a new powersports purchase. Honda and Suzuki are represented in our motorcycle lineup. Polaris is represented in side-by-side and ORV shopping. Can-Am is represented in side-by-sides and ATVs. Sea-Doo adds personal watercraft to the Austin lineup, and Stark Future adds electric dirt bikes.

    Those brand relationships are the foundation of our new-inventory positioning, but the live mix is not fixed. A brand can have several product families, trims and model years in the wider U.S. market, while our Austin availability changes over time. For that reason, we keep this page at the franchise and category level. When you want to see a specific model, color, trim or model year, use our live inventory and brand pages or contact our Sales team for the current listing and status.

    Our current site includes dedicated brand pages for Honda, Suzuki, Polaris, Can-Am and Stark Future. Sea-Doo is also part of our Austin franchise lineup. For current Sea-Doo shopping, use our main showroom and live inventory pages so you are working from the inventory information available when you shop.

    Confirmed Vehicle Categories

    Our showroom focuses on the vehicle categories represented through our Austin location: motorcycles, ATVs, side-by-sides and UTVs, personal watercraft, dual-sport and enduro motorcycles, and electric dirt bikes. Within motorcycles, our lineup supports sport, cruiser and dirt-bike shopping, while dual-sport and enduro motorcycles provide another path for riders who want street-and-trail versatility.

    If you already know the type of riding you plan to do, start with the category that matches that use. Motorcycle shoppers can compare street-oriented, sport, cruiser, dirt and dual-purpose options represented within our confirmed franchise relationships. Off-road shoppers can use our ATV and side-by-side category pages to narrow the search before checking the live inventory. Personal-watercraft shoppers can use the main showroom and inventory while the dedicated Sea-Doo hub is being completed. Electric dirt-bike shoppers can use the Stark Future brand experience and the live inventory tools.

    We keep this page focused on the categories represented through our Austin location. If a vehicle type is not part of our Austin lineup, we do not present it here as though it is.

    New and Pre-Owned Inventory

    Our website provides separate ways to browse new and pre-owned inventory. New inventory is tied to the franchises and categories confirmed for our Austin location. Pre-owned inventory is inherently more variable because its mix depends on trades, purchases and units moving through the dealership. We therefore do not publish a permanent brand percentage, new-versus-used split, or fixed description of the pre-owned mix.

    For shoppers, the practical difference is straightforward. New inventory should be evaluated through the current franchised lineup and the live unit details available when you shop. Pre-owned inventory should be treated as an active marketplace that can change from one visit to the next. A pre-owned unit that is visible today may not remain available, and a category that appears lightly represented at one moment can change as inventory turns.

    Use the New Inventory and Pre-Owned Inventory filters for the current picture. If you do not see the exact fit you want, contact Sales before assuming the live page represents every option that may be available through the Republic Powersports group. Our Austin store participates in a shared inventory pool across three Republic Powersports locations, giving the team a wider internal view than a static Austin page alone can communicate.

    How to Browse and Choose the Right Unit

    A good vehicle choice starts with use, fit and ownership needs rather than with a model name alone. Begin by deciding whether your priority is street riding, off-road recreation, utility work, trail use, personal watercraft, or electric dirt riding. Then narrow the category and compare the live units that match that purpose. Use current unit pages for model-specific specifications, condition, equipment and pricing, because those details can change and should not be frozen into an evergreen authority page.

    If you are comparing several categories, our category pages can help separate the shopping path. Motorcycle, ATV, side-by-side and dirt-bike pages are already part of the approved Austin site structure. Brand pages can then help you focus on a confirmed franchise. When a test ride is appropriate, our site also provides a Schedule a Test Ride resource. Current eligibility, unit availability and appointment details should be confirmed through the dealership for the vehicle you are considering.

    The Sales team can also help you compare the practical differences that matter to your purchase, such as vehicle type, intended use, seating needs, terrain, transport considerations and whether you are shopping new or pre-owned. This page does not assign a universal “best” vehicle because the right choice depends on the rider, the use case and the live units available when you shop.

    Trade-Ins and the Purchase Process

    Trade-ins are part of the Austin shopping process. We publish a Value Your Trade tool as well as a We Buy Bikes resource, allowing you to begin the valuation conversation online. Trade values, timing and final terms depend on the vehicle and the current dealership process, so we do not present a fixed valuation formula or turnaround promise here.

    If you are replacing a current vehicle, start the trade-in step early. That gives the dealership a chance to review the information you provide while you are also narrowing your next purchase. A trade may be part of the overall transaction, but its value, eligibility and final treatment depend on the current vehicle and the live dealership process.

    For customers who want to begin from home, several confirmed steps are available online: finance pre-approval and trade-in valuation can both be started digitally. You can also call our Sales team at (512) 377-9965 to continue the shopping conversation. We currently confirm online finance pre-approval and trade-in valuation as ways to start from home. For the rest of the transaction, including paperwork and pickup, confirm the current process with Sales. We do not advertise home delivery as a standard service on this page.

    Finance, Service, Parts and Current Promotions

    The vehicle purchase is connected to the rest of the dealership. If financing is part of your plan, our Finance page provides the dealership’s current financing information, and a separate online pre-approval application is available. Specific credit terms, lender availability, down-payment requirements and approval outcomes are not fixed on this showroom page because they vary by transaction and current program.

    Service matters before and after the sale. Our Service Department has its own service page and online scheduling path, so you can review our service resources separately from the inventory decision. Our Parts Department likewise has a dedicated page and a Parts Request form. Keeping those departments connected helps shoppers move from choosing a vehicle to planning ownership support without forcing service or parts claims into the inventory page.

    Current incentive information belongs on the dealership’s promotion resources rather than in permanent showroom copy. Manufacturer and dealer programs can change, expire or carry eligibility requirements. Use the current Factory Promotions and promotions pages for live program information, and confirm the terms that apply to the vehicle and transaction you are considering. This keeps the showroom page accurate even when pricing, incentives and finance programs change.

    Shopping from Kyle and the Greater Austin Metro

    Republic Powersports Austin is located in Kyle and serves the greater Austin metro, including Kyle, Austin, New Braunfels, Spicewood, San Marcos and Bastrop. Our home market is centered on Kyle and the South Austin corridor, and our typical customer travel radius is 40 minutes or less.

    That geography shapes the way we organize the showroom: shoppers may be looking for a street motorcycle for Central Texas roads, an ATV or side-by-side for recreation or utility use, a dirt or dual-purpose motorcycle, a Sea-Doo personal watercraft, or an electric dirt bike. The correct starting point is the current category and live inventory that matches your intended use.

    When you are ready to move forward, use the live showroom and inventory first, then connect with Sales for the current unit status. From there, use the trade-in, finance, service, parts and promotion resources as needed. This structure keeps the page useful over time: the confirmed brands, categories and dealership relationships remain clear while the dynamic facts that change every day stay where they belong – in the live inventory and current dealership process.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What types of powersports vehicles can I shop at Republic Powersports Austin?

    We represent confirmed Austin franchises across motorcycles, ATVs, side-by-sides and UTVs, personal watercraft, dual-sport and enduro motorcycles, and electric dirt bikes. Our franchised brands are Honda, Suzuki, Polaris, Can-Am, Sea-Doo and Stark Future.

    You can begin with the vehicle category that matches how you ride or work, then use our live inventory for the specific units available when you shop.

    What is the difference between new and pre-owned inventory on the site?

    New inventory is organized around our confirmed Austin franchises, while pre-owned inventory can change as vehicles are traded, purchased or sold. We do not publish a fixed new-versus-pre-owned percentage because the mix is dynamic.

    Use the live New and Pre-Owned inventory filters for the current mix instead of relying on a static inventory description.

    Does Republic Powersports Austin accept trade-ins?

    Yes. We publish a Value Your Trade tool and a We Buy Bikes resource so you can begin the trade-in or purchase conversation online.

    You can submit information about your current vehicle while you are narrowing your next purchase, then confirm the current valuation and transaction details with our team.

    Why does powersports inventory availability change?

    Inventory changes as vehicles arrive, move through the Republic Powersports inventory pool, are traded or are sold. That is why we keep specific unit details on the live inventory pages instead of fixing counts or availability claims in permanent showroom content.

    Check the live listing or contact Sales before making plans around a particular unit, model year, configuration or price.

    Can I complete a Republic Powersports Austin purchase remotely?

    You can start finance pre-approval and trade-in valuation online, and you can continue the shopping conversation with our Sales team by phone. For the rest of the transaction, including paperwork and pickup, contact Sales for the current process. We do not advertise home delivery as a standard service here.

    Start the available online steps from home, then confirm the current completion, paperwork and pickup process with Sales for your transaction.

    How does financing connect to an inventory purchase?

    Our Finance page provides current financing information, and we publish a separate online pre-approval application. Specific rates, terms, lender availability and approval outcomes depend on the current transaction and program.

    You can begin the financing step while you shop without treating a changing rate, term or incentive as a permanent promise on the showroom page.

    How should I choose the right motorcycle, ATV, side-by-side, personal watercraft or dirt bike?

    Start with your intended use, then narrow by category, brand and the live units available. Consider where you plan to ride, whether the vehicle is for recreation or utility use, seating needs, terrain, transport needs and whether you prefer new or pre-owned.

    Use our category and brand pages to narrow the field, then work with Sales on the current unit that best matches your needs rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all recommendation.


    Inventory changes over time. Confirm the exact unit, configuration, and current location with our sales team before planning around a specific purchase.
