2023 Honda XL750 Transalp Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2023 Honda XL750 Transalp super motard motorcycle, Honda relies on a 755 cc (46.1 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 90.5 HP (66.1 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 75 Nm (55.3 lb-ft) at 7,250 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 119.9 HP per liter and a 2,250 rpm working window between peak torque (7,250 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.

On the scales, the XL750 Transalp measures 208 kg (459 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.44 HP/kg (2.3 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 850 mm (33.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,560 mm (61.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 16.9-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 4.44 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 381 km (237 miles) between fill-ups.
