Features may include:

• The legendary TRANSALP name dates back to 1986, when it debuted as one of the first adventure touring motorcycles of its kind. The new TRANSALP has inherited the same adventurous spirit as the cult classic, delivering all-round touring performance with plenty of power, comfort and technology.

• The newly developed 755cc engine produces a hard hit of top end power and mountains of usable torque in the low to mid rpm range. The result is an engine that provides usable, enjoyable performance.

• Four default riding modes – Gravel, Sport, Standard and Rain – make it easy for most riding conditions and alter the level of engine power and braking, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), Wheelie Control and level of ABS intervention. User mode allows your custom preference of each parameter, including rear ABS switch off for off-road riding. All are managed via a 5-inch TFT screen.

• The Honda Assist Slipper clutch reduces the load of the clutch lever and prevents rear wheel lock-up on harsh downshifts.

• Patented Air vortex flow ducts create a more uniform distribution from the side scoops into the airbox, which then feeds downdraft intakes and 46mm diameter throttle bodies, creating razor sharp pick up and throttle response.

• This bike is built to go the distance, so genuine comfort matters. Seat height is low for the class at 850mm (an 820mm low seat is also available as an option) and the riding position is upright for natural control and leverage. The riding geometry also works well when standing up.

• The R&D team used the "Friendly Toughness" as the Transalps design concept - with an aim to strike a balance between aerodynamic performance/ wind protection at speed to a sense of lightness and freedom at low speeds. The result is sleek, simple and clean bodywork with a purposeful look and feel, with zero excess and is built tough.

• The compact, two-piston calipers that work dual 310mm wave discs at the front, while rear 256mm wave disc is operated by a single-piston caliper. Combined with the with the 2-stage adjustable ABS with the ability to switch off rear ABS for off-road riding in USER mode. This provides confident braking and a sense of security whether you're on a paved road or off-road.

• The suspension was designed with long travel and superb bump absorption for smooth performance and comfort on-road as well as reassuring control off-road. Showa 43 mm SFF-CATM (Separate Function Fork-Cartridge) USD forks offer 200 mm travel with spring preload adjustment control the front, while a remote reservoir Showa shock (with adjustable preload and 190mm travel) operating through Pro-Link manage the rear.
