Technical features

Vehicle compatibility

If your Africa Twin is a CRF1000L (up to 2019), you need code ES1161K instead.

Who it's perfect for

Anyone with an Africa Twin knows that the standard side stand has a small foot for a bike of its size. All it takes is a dirt parking lot, a grassy area, or asphalt softened by the August sun, and the kickstand sinks. With the ES1178K, the support surface widens, and the problem is solved — even more so when you're traveling with luggage and a passenger.
