At the heart of the 2017 Honda Africa Twin Enduro Sports Concept prototype - concept model motorcycle, Honda relies on a 1140 cc (69.6 cu in) oil & air-cooled in-line four, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 88.5 HP (64.6 kW) at 7,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 91 Nm (67.1 lb-ft) at 5,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 77.6 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (5,000 rpm) and peak power (7,500 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 792 mm (31.2 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,491 mm (58.7 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 14.76-liter (3.9 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
