Some bikes become part of the family and Ken & Deb’s Africa Twin story is exactly that.
After loving their 2017 Honda Africa Twin for years of sealed road adventures, gravel rides, and two up touring, it was finally time for Deb to get a bike of her own.
After plenty of research and a few practice rides on the 2017 Africa Twin, Deb decided the new 2025 Honda CRF1100 Africa Twin DCT ES was the perfect fit and may well have been the last one available in New Zealand.
Deb has already completed her first big ride with the Thames/Waihi Ulysses Club, clocking up 350km on Mother’s Day with lunch in Tamahere along the way.
The only question now is… when you’re a passionate horse rider too, how do you decide which horsepower to enjoy for the day?
Thanks Ken & Deb for sharing your story and adventures with us. We can’t wait to see where Tiger, Deb’s new Africa Twin, heads next.
Send us your favourite bike adventures and photos, we love seeing where the road (or track) takes you.

Just a reminder we are closed Easter Weekend. Our team is back on deck Tuesday 7th April.

We hope you have a relaxing break and get the chance to head out for a ride.

Stay safe and enjoy the long weekend from the team at Lakes Honda.

Thursday feels here at Lakes Honda Banana Chocolate Chip cake and a nice hot cuppa. Just want to wish everyone a wonderful and safe long weekend. Hopefully the weather will hold off for some great riding time.

Petrol prices are really stinging at the moment… and there is no telling when they will come back down to anything close to reasonable.

Might be time to rethink the daily drive and swap four wheels for two and watch those fuel stops stretch a whole lot further.

Whether it is commuting, weekend rides, or just getting around town, a motorcycle makes a lot of sense right now.

Pop in and chat with the team at Lakes Honda about finding the right bike for you.

Just a heads up we will be closed over the Easter period Friday 3rd - Monday 6th April.

If you need anything bike related pop in and see the team before the long weekend kicks off.

We will be back to normal opening hours from Tuesday 7th April.
