RIDE REVIEW I 2024 HONDA XL750R TRANSALP
P90
5'9" frame, even when wearing
an ADV helmet with a visor at-
tached. The brakes are an-
other area where Honda always
seems to leave the competition
behind—they're simply the best.
Smooth and precise, with lots of
feel and feedback, you always
know exactly how much or how
little to apply.
All in all, the 2024 XL750R
Transalp is an amazing machine.
I'm not sure why Honda didn't
include cruise control (they'll
certainly hear about that from
customers and dealers alike),
and if you like riding aggressively
off-road, you'll need to spend
some money on the suspension,
but at an MSRP of just $9999,
it's an incredible value. It offers
an unmatched electronics suite
packed with ride modes and ad
-
justability, a quickshifter, all LED
lighting, and it's ready to accept
a whole host of available acces
-
sories—plus, it's a Honda, so you
know it's going to be reliable and
ready every time you're ready to
ride.

The Transalp's
