Honda Brings the Iconic Transalp Back with the XL750, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has officially launched the much-anticipated Honda Transalp XL750 in the country. Designed as a middleweight adventure tourer, the XL750 brings back the legendary Transalp nameplate with a modern design, powerful engine, and long-distance comfort. Adventure riders, tourers, and off-road enthusiasts now have a reliable new option in the sub-800cc ADV segment.
Design Inspired by Dakar Rally DNA
The Honda XL750 Transalp features a tall and purposeful ADV stance with a sleek fairing, tall windscreen, and long-travel suspension. Its slim fuel tank, upright ergonomics, and spoke wheels give it true dual-sport capabilities. LED lighting, handguards, and adventure-style bodywork make it look ready for rough terrain, while still maintaining Honda’s signature clean and refined styling.
Powerful Parallel-Twin Engine
At the heart of the Transalp XL750 is a 755cc parallel-twin engine derived from the Honda Hornet 750, producing 90.5 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 75 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch for smooth gear shifts. With a strong mid-range and responsive throttle, the XL750 performs confidently on highways, trails, and everything in between.
Technology-Packed with TFT Display and Rider Modes
The Honda XL750 Transalp is loaded with tech features including a 5-inch TFT instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, and smartphone notifications. It offers five riding modes Sport, Standard, Rain, Gravel, and a customizable User mode — each adjusting throttle response, traction control, ABS, and engine braking based on terrain and riding style.
Suspension and Braking Setup for Any Terrain
The bike features Showa 43mm USD front forks and a Pro-Link rear monoshock, tuned for both on-road comfort and off-road performance. With 200mm of ground clearance, dual disc front brakes, and spoked 21-inch front / 18-inch rear wheels, the XL750 is built for versatile adventures from broken tarmac to mountain trails.
Fuel Tank, Weight, and Practicality
The 16.9-litre fuel tank gives the XL750 a strong touring range, and despite its size, the bike weighs just 208 kg (kerb), making it manageable for long-distance rides and light off-roading. Its upright seating posture, wind protection, and optional luggage accessories make it ideal for touring across India’s diverse terrains.
Price and Availability in India
The Honda Transalp XL750 is priced at ₹10.99 lakh (ex-showroom) and is available in limited numbers through Honda’s premium BigWing dealerships across India. It’s offered in two color options Matte Ballistic Black Metallic and Ross White Tricolour, the latter paying tribute to the original Transalp design. Bookings are open, and deliveries will begin soon.
Final Verdict
The Honda XL750 Transalp is a true adventure motorcycle that blends power, practicality, and Honda’s legendary reliability. Whether you’re planning a Ladakh tour, weekend off-road trip, or daily highway commute, the Transalp offers a well-rounded package for the serious ADV rider. It brings global-class performance to India’s middleweight adventure segment and does it with style.
