I'm hoping they come in a Black version....didn't the leaked spec sheet say 4 color choices?

 

yessir. CRF Red, HRC Tricolour, Silver or Black

 

 

 

Bad news for anyone in the USA, looks like AT will only be available in Dakar Rally (CRF Red and Digital Metallic Silver. http://powersports.honda.com/docume...da.com/documentum/model_pages/specification_pdf_files/2016_AfricaTwin_Specs.pdf

I think the UK gets Red, Silver and HRC...

 

I was hot for a white DCT but red will work just fine. In the video the show the red one shifting on the bars so hopefully that will hold true in the states.

 

Okay, That Black Rocks, But I'll Be Okay With Silver...

Look how little masking there would be to do to prep the silver to be painted any color you want. I will most certainly enjoy converting it to coyote, OD green, or charcoal gray/black. I will use Cerakote, for an incredibly tough finish.

If they brought that black here to the USA, I'd leave it alone. I think that's gorgeous, and once you go black....

I'll put all the bars on and light tabs and mount LifetimeLEDLights stuff on it and burn holes in the night.

I CAN'T FREAKING WAIT ! ! ! :grin2:
Jim, bored at work.
As Rafi from The League says, "Rafi-Bomb!"

 

Black indeed rocks.

I've always like cleaner looking color scheme's with little contrast between the color which silver and black do well with accomplishing, even with making the "Africa Twin" lettering coming the closest to having a "ghosting" effect.

 

Totally Agree on Ghosting Effect....

I love to see charcoal gray patrol cars with dark gray or even black subdued lettering on them. I would love to see this bike in a color scheme close to that. Honda has done that with several bikes, to include the CBR's and even the Interceptors. That would rock, especially with those gold colored engine cases.

This bike is going to be a blast to customize and make it look like it's ready for war.

Lil wrap job shouldn't be too hard...

 

From what i understand in Canada Red and Black are manual only, Silver is DCT only. All North American models will come with ABS. Supposedly we're not to be trusteD?

 

I want the red white and blue for my US bike. Has anyone had that replicated with a custom paint job?

 

This custom Red one is the best colour I've seen, I prefer it to my tri colour
