Intro

XL750 Transalp – 25YM

The XL750 Transalp – which debuted in 23YM – was designed to fill a gap in the mid-capacity sector of Honda’s range as a model to attract customers with a different set of adventurous aspirations. Fittingly it takes inspiration from the original and is perfect for an extended touring trip as well as the urban cut and thrust – and all points in-between.

Model Overview

The XL750 Transalp’s design projects an unmistakeable feeling of adventure touring in a package that works superbly on the road, with a long-legged stance that makes a strong statement of purpose. For 25YM a new, bold look is headed up by a new dual LED projector headlight – drawing design influence from the Africa Twin – that adds to the adventurous styling and throws out more powerful beams. Paired with this is a revised upper fairing that utilises a central duct to improve airflow around the helmet area, while the new, high-transparency DurabioTM screen features reprofiled surfacing to further aid air flow around the rider’s body. Internal mid-cowl aerodynamics have also been updated to improve handling agility.
