Can the V-Strom 1050DE compete with the Africa Twin?

Since this year, Suzuki has also been playing in the so-called upper middle class for touring enduros with a 21-inch front wheel. So what could be more obvious than to compare the new V-Strom 1050DE with the Honda CRF1100L Africa Twin, for many the benchmark in this league. We have ridden the two extensively both on the road and on unpaved roads - the differences are noticeable and make it quite easy to find out which one might be the most suitable for whom.
