I clearly had a bit of brain fog in the heat when I said no direct rivals in India. The recently launched V-Storm 800 DE is this bike’s closest rival and we’ll have a review of it out on the 24th of May.

But I dont get the point of this Honda... it has 21 inch front wheels but other aspects of the bike isnt for off roading. So if its mainly for touring on road, why the 21s? 19 and 18 or even 18 and 17 would have made more sense. Same applies to the huge ground clearance and high seat. They would have made sense if it was a true offroader which it isnt. On top of that, if we add the feature misses (quick shifter, tubeless tires, etc) and quirks of the bike (un-ergonomic switch gear, expensive add-ons) and then the price... this bike makes no sense whatsoever.

It's good to see Honda has somewhat started to give bikes for review. I feel the bike is well priced but the spoked tube wheels are a deal breaker (same goes for the vstrom 800 DE) and Those accessories are just too expensive mainly the centre stand🥲

Why do you say this bike does not have any direct rivals in India? What about the Suzuki V-Strom 800 DE? Even, internationally these 2 bikes are pitted against each other. I think you should do a comparo here. Both of them are comparable in terms of form and function and even priced close to each other.

I agree. The V in the V-Strom doesn't make a lot of sense. I think it too has a tube tyre set-up.

Honda Bigwing Kochi gave it to me for a day for TD. I was planning to switch to this from my T 800... As I am getting in age and Tiger 800 is very top heavy... The bike is a gem compared to T 800 on maneuverability. Doesn't have the low down torque which means a lot to me as my wife joins me for almost all rides, so I find constantly shifting between 3rd and 4th gear in inner roads.... The deal breaker was the tubed tyre and the pillion comfort...within 2 hours of ride my wife started getting back pain because of the constant jerk... In the Tiger we had done 12 hr rides without an issue.... This bike is great for solo riders though
@Lensnthrottle3 ай бұрын
I bought this bike in UK. I am riding this since last month. Awesome bike is all I got to say. I rode almost all bikes in middle weight category and Yamaha Tenere 700 was my other immediate option. Tenere is definitely a better off road bike but it is a bit top heavy. Trandalp is a clear winner when it comes to on road. Go for it if you want a middle weight adventure. It wont disappoint you ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

This is a good package. Only thing holding back is at 11 lac ex showroom, this has tube tyre. At that price tubeless spoke is must . It's competition has tubeless spoke wheels. With all accessories, the price comes very close to BMW 850 GSA and all those accessories come as standard .

This bike is the lightest and powerful when it comes to power to weight ratio easiest way to find that is the front wheel pops easily on 1 st and second gear which makes it more fun and on highway it is very confidence inspiring compared to tiger 900 & suzuki 800de ,it has got character and feels more like a ducati ,only sad part is it does not have tubeless tyres and the accessories are expensive but its a very peppy bike and blends easily
