What is the best offroad motorcycle?

This is a highly subjective question, with many contenders for the top spot, including the Ducati Multistrada Enduro, the Honda Africa Twin, and the KTM 790 Adventure R. However, the BMW R1250GSA is considered by many to be amongst the very best off-road motorcycles currently on the market. The latest in the highly lauded GSA line, this 134bhp horsepower bike, with a boxer engine and 1254 cc capacity, reviewed very well and can come with a range of additional features, including keyless start, cornering ABS, an SOS button on the handlebar, and dynamic electronic suspension.

Which Adventure motorcycle is best?

Adventure motorcycles are a specific type of motorcycle designed for both on-road and off-road motorcycles. There are a few entries in this category, as well, but the Honda Africa Twin is considered by many to be the quintessential adventure bike. With a 998c parallel twin-engine, Unicam head design, and 270-degree crank, these high-performance bikes are helped by an excellent chassis design that holds its balance both on and off the road.

What is the best motorcycle for on and off-road?

When people ask this question, they are primarily asking about which is the best adventure motorcycle, which can also be called a dual-purpose motorcycle. As such, the same answer above still applies. Though different riders will have their own opinions, the Honda Africa Twin is largely considered the best motorcycle for on and off-road.

Is the Honda Africa Twin automatic?

Yes, the Honda Africa Twin is available with DCT (or Dual Clutch Transmission) which is a form of automatic transmission that emulates the feel of manual transmission.
