I think as the same as some reviewers have suggest that Honda did not upgrade the suspension or add cruise control to keep the price down and so they can still sell Africa Twins. That colour looks good with the silver skidplate, lower crash bars and muffler cover. 👍 It only comes in the matte black for 2024 where I am. Honda why a matte paint that cannot be polished or waxed? Leave the music off at the start when you are talking please. If you use only the kill switch but not the key you do not have to reset she Traction Control. Seats on bikes change and often get better over time.

No cruise as an option makes no sense as all the hardware is there. I know Mccruise in Victoria are looking at a cruise control for it though

Got one on order 👍👍

awesome video bud love it!!

g'day from the uk . am a transalp fan from years ago . i do most of my riding on road but am happy to do the odd gravel track now what would be better value a new transalp or should i spend the same amount of cash on a second hand africa twin great vid , keep em comming

Great video and riding.......your pretty fast I think to most people who will buy this bike. I had 2 ATs and loved the power,handling and just a fun bike to ride. But a bit too heavy for me doing the BDR thing. Tried a T7 and did all pretty much but just kinda bland. Just not that exciting for me. I got a Transalp on order here in the US hope its closer to the unicorn bike I keep looking for.....

This is the bike i went with. Coming from a crf450rl, its not nesrly as good in the dirt but is wonderful on road

Can you store the in rider mode a setup with the TC off in that mode..

If you added the usual mods and accessories to both the Transalp and T7 including revalving the suspension, how much behind the T7 would the Transalp be for offroad focussed adventure riding? On paper they would appear close

That’s also my favorite color

So stupid having to do that dance for traction control. Was in my shortlist until I found out how annoying traction control is to turn off

Hello! I'm based in India. Looking to upgrade from my KTM 390 to a bigger (more reliable) bike for occasional city duties and mostly for long distance touring (lightly loaded or sometimes 2 up) through big bumps and pot-holes, tarmac and dirt track no-roads, busy traffic and whatever else the journey throws at you. New Transalp XL 750: + Light, Nimble, Fast, Reliable, VFM Maintainance, Cool Engine, 5 Year Warranty - Limited Ground Clearance, Basic Suspension, Tubed Tires Used Triumph Tiger 900 RP: (2001 - 5K Kms - Loaded Accesories) + All Round Champ, Creature Comforts, Top-notch Fit and Components, Built for the Beating, Terrific Suspension and GC - Higher Spares/Maintainance, Iffy Electronics Reliability and Heating in Traffic🔥🥵 are the Primary Concerns holding me back! Awaiting your suggestion... P.S. Riding Style: Hooligan'ish

Which one has better off-road handling, Tuareq 660 or Transalp ?

The vsrom 800de is a much better bike for the money.. but the time you fix the suspension and the cost is more than the vsrom and still have far less ground clearance

The 800DE with superior suspension, better torque, better fuel deliver, larger fuel capacity, and standard quick shifter is the better choice for ADV riding. Even though the 800DE is heavier, it is lighter to pick up.

When u Gunnar try t7 world raid

hey grandma so the Traction control is required legally by your legislators and most come here not to hear your moaning, adjust suspension like most of us amateurs would upfront. lol all the best

Enjoyed the video. However I think you’ve underplayed your obvious talent riding motorcycles especially off road and overestimated probably 90% of the people who actuallly buy this bike. If I tried to ride that track like you I’d be in hospital and the bike would be knackered. Honda has to pitch the bike at an average ability and if some donut left the traction off and another rider jumped on not knowing and gave it a hand full they may end up in the hedge!
