2023 Honda XL750 Transalp
Honda is reviving an all-terrain legend, the mighty Transalp! The all-new 2023 Honda XL750 Transalp thankfully keeps the retro name and style, but now comes with a modern drivetrain and the latest tech. The original Honda Transalp XL600V was first launched in 1986, and it has been 10 years since Honda discontinued the last Transalp after a quarter of a century building the middleweight adventure bike. The brand-new 750cc parallel twin engine is used in the 2023 Honda Transalp (the CB750 Hornet shares the same engine), which generates 55.2 pound-feet of torque at 7,250 rpm and 91 hp at 9,500 rpm. According to Honda, the throttle-by-wire technology has been adjusted to give the engine a more touring-oriented character.
In addition, the design of this new model is based on the classic design of the original Transalp, with characteristic colors and graphics, and smooth, clean lines. But it also brings modernity, with an LED headlight reminiscent of the CB 500X and NC 750X, and a color TFT digital panel. Ready for the most extreme adventures, the XL750 Transalp features spoked wheels (21-inch front, 18-inch rear), mixed-use tires, and Showa SFF-CA inverted suspension at the front and Showa Pro-Link at the rear. Available in a choice of Matte Iridium Gray Metallic, Mat Ballistic Black Metallic or Ross White Tricolor.
