New 2024 Honda Transalp

Its long been a legend in Europeand now its finally returning to North America. The new Honda Transalp is designed to expand your exploring horizons: around town, on the highway, in the mountains, on the unpaved, less-travelled roads. Sized right to balance comfort, maneuverability and compactness, its also a showcase for one of our best engines ever, a new 755cc Unicam parallel twin. Loaded with features like selectable riding modes and available with a wide range of accessories. Rally-bike-inspired aerodynamic bodywork offers just enough wind- and weather protection. Smooth. Tough. Agile and smart. Its the machine so many of us have dreamed of for so longand now the dream has come true.

TECHNOLOGY

FIVE RIDE MODES

The Transalp features five separate riding modes: Sport, Standard, Rain, Gravel, and an additional rider-customizable setting. That lets you dial in not only power delivery, but engine braking and ABS intervention too, depending on the riding surface. Plus, switching between them is super easy.

Honda SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC)
With Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) and the Transalps selectable ride modes, you can choose a level which allows some rear-wheel spinon gravel or dirt for instanceor pick a second level which reduces wheel spin, particularly on slippery roads.

THROTTLE BY WIRE
The Transalp features throttle-by-wire (TBW) technology. Light, precise, and proven, its also the reason our engineers can build in the Transalps five selectable riding modes.

PERFORMANCE
UNICAM ENGINE DESIGN
Like our Africa Twin and CRF450R, our Honda-exclusive Unicam engine design helps us give the Transalp a compact cylinder head for optimal engine placement. The engine also benefits from superior performance, thanks to the entire cylinder-head layout. Its the best of both worlds!

755cc TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE
The Transalp showcases a new engine thats absolutely at the top of its class. Based on the Honda Hornet from Europe, the parallel-twin design is narrow, and delivers torque everywhere from idle to redline. Youll have more grunt down low, and cruise easy on the open road.

PARALLEL-TWIN ENGINE LAYOUT
The Transalps parallel-twin engine layout makes the bike shorter front-to-back. That means the front wheel can tuck in closer to the engine, shortening the wheelbase and making the bike more nimble off road and on pavement.

VORTEX AIRFLOW DUCTING
This is a big breakthrough youre seeing on several Honda engines now. By speeding up intake-charge airspeed at the critical low- and mid-engine speeds from 3000 to 8000 rpm, you get better throttle response and acceleration.

Ni-SiC CYLINDER BORE PLATING
Forget about heavy, old-school iron cylinder liners. By using Nickle-Silicon-Carbide plating like our CBR1000RR-R and CRF450R, the Transalp offers better engine cooling and more compact cylinder spacing.

HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL INJECTION
The Transalps engine uses a special high-pressure fuel-injection system pressurized to 65 PSI. That improves combustion and throttle characteristics for better throttle response especially in the lower and mid RPM range where youll be riding in technical terrain.

QUICK SHIFTER
Whether youre riding on-road or off the pavement, youll always appreciate fast, decisive shifting, and the Transalps quick shifter makes that happen. Even better, it comes as standard equipment.
