Transalp XL750 Specifications

The Honda Transalp XL750 is built around a 755cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that punches out 90.5 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 75 Nm of peak torque at 7,250 rpm. The power delivery is deliberately broad - Honda has tuned this engine for real-world rideability rather than peak-dyno drama, which means you get strong pull from 3,000 rpm without needing to rev it hard. It's paired to a 6-speed gearbox with an assist-and-slipper clutch that keeps the lever light in traffic.

At 208 kg kerb weight, the Transalp is one of the lightest bikes in the 750cc ADV class - noticeably lighter than the Suzuki V-Strom 800DE at 232 kg. That weight advantage pays dividends the moment you hit a narrow Himalayan trail or try to U-turn on a congested Mumbai street. The 850 mm seat height sounds tall but the slim waist lets shorter riders get both feet down more easily than the number suggests.

The chassis runs a steel diamond frame with an aluminium swingarm. Suspension is a Showa 43mm USD fork up front and a Pro-Link monoshock at the rear - the 2025 update brought revised damping settings that are noticeably better on broken surfaces compared to the 2024 model. Ground clearance is 210 mm, which is adequate for packed-gravel forest roads but not serious off-road work.

Braking is handled by dual 310mm front discs with 4-piston calipers and a 256mm rear disc, all backed by dual-channel ABS with switchable rear ABS for loose surfaces. The electronics package is well-specced for the price: Throttle-By-Wire enables five riding modes (Sport, Standard, Rain, Gravel, User), Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), wheelie control, and engine braking control. The 5-inch TFT display supports Honda RoadSync for turn-by-turn navigation, calls and music via Bluetooth. The 2026 model is expected to add an E-Clutch as standard.
