Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports vs Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE

The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (2026) and the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is a adventure bike with 1,084 cc, 100.6 hp and 253 kg; the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is a adventure bike with 1,037 cc, 105.9 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 306.6 hp/ton versus 341.1 hp/ton. On this measure the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE is 11% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.08 s and the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE in 3.12 s; the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports is quicker by 0.04 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.4 m for the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports (with ABS) and 41.4 m for the Suzuki V-Strom 1050 DE (with ABS). Calculated top speed: 202 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 194 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
