    Honda crf 1100 l 

    Honda crf 1100 l africa twin is one of the classic and sporty bikes of all time.The aggressive styling looks adds more definition and makes it more appealing as well.Although, The price range is a bit on the expensive side.But the massive engine of 1000cc is something to admirable.
