AfricanQueens XRV 1000 Marathon
 

With the Marathon, weight reduction and improved off-road capability was the main focus.
This was achieved by extending front and rear suspension travel, increasing ground clearance and changing to a larger 21 inch front wheel.

The Marathon shouldn't be considered a "hard-enduro bike", it is more suited for open terrain and dirt roads of all kinds -
Here she can play out her engine's impressive performance in combination with the vastly improved suspensions providing stability by swallowing every bump, while still offering ample comfort to the rider.
