This is not the right way to get to know how to use a new ADV motorcycle. First read the manual, next setup the bike for your needs, next practice on easy roads, next wait until after break-in period, then much later go on more challenging ride with a partner. Anyone watching please don't follow the incorrect actions of this rider.
What did Green Day Say
Live without Warnings
@@TheFastphillRight on 🤘🏾🤘🏾!!!!
lol relax he didnt even goin fast ....
😂😂😂Holly crap get a life its his bike 😂😂😂
The most rebellious Honda owner 😂
That drone shot to bike shot was a pretty neat edit.
I bought this bike 2500kms ago , despite many years previous off road riding experience , haven’t touched dirt on this bike , but being doing 400km days on the back roads .
Almost all reviews depict Transalp as 90% street bike. You prove that is off-road capable. I’m thinking about swapping my 750GS for something lighter, not tall (for a vertically challenged person), and reliable. Your video moved Transalp to the top of my list. Thanks.
@MrArieso thanks for watching and the comment
i did a road book rally on it with some tough track and it did it very easy
Exactly, i am on the fence of buying one. I have a CRF300Rally now, but i just want a bit more power while on road, and i would like to be able to get a bit sideways in the dirt.. The 300 does not do any of those 2 things.
And this guy just shows it's a great offroad bike if you treat it that way.
@@MotoSly i have not ridden the CRF 300 Rally the Transalp i heavier no doubt but for Touring i think its a good thing
Ps we are going to Europe in 2025 and will probably be on the CRF 300 Rally
check out the transalp vid by YT channel 'Two wheels and wings' , it's one of the best videos i've seen showing that a competent rider can take the Halfrica Twin anywhere the ''real'' ADV bikes will go!
I'm in Australia too and own a Transalp....very capable off road if you know the bikes capabilities and limitations...I spend 75% off my time off road ....
I'll be watching your channel closely as I'm about to invest in a new adv bike. I previously had a ktm 790s, and the 2023 890s is looking mighty fine. Great all rounders. My little drz400 sm is wrattling me senseless on the road and on the last trip I'm pretty sure i lost feeling in my man-bits. The mods you are doing are in line with my ideas and i am hoping you'll answer some of my questions so i can make up my mind.
@briano5907 for me the transalp made cents pun intended it is cheap it should be reliable i think it will be good enough off road to do everything i need it to do its good on the road
Thanks for watching i hope this helps
i hope i can help more
Great job, mate. I want to buy a Transalp when they start to seek in America.
thanks for the comment
more vids to follow I have put another 1000 kms of dirt under the wheels
MotoZ Desert H/T tires are great in the dirt. They should completely replace Continental TKC80s.
MotoZ Rallz tires are just as good as the Adventure tires and the rear lasts longer. You'll burn through three front Rallz for every rear, so matching a Desert H/T front with a Rallz rear might be an even swap on the front.
@rosslangerak8361 i have a road book rally next weekend they will be fitted for that
Hi mate, sounds like we have similar backgrounds of bikes and ride styles. I’ve been looking at the. Transalp myself for the longer adv stuff with the good twin track stuff included,I realise it needs protection and suspension if your going to push, but I hear great things about the bike’s balance and LSGravity. Just wondering your thoughts after riding it for a while now, cheers Paul.
@user-xe6qq9zi8s very happy with the Transalp i rode a Africa Twin for 2 weeks in Europe and then the Transalp for a week also in Europe and was happier back on the transalp it was lighter on nearly as much power
I don't think i will change the suspension i will just ride to the bike ability i am about 75 Kgs
Nice riding, have you riden the Yamie T7?
@jeffbrown6880 i have not ridden the Yamie T 7
Great video thanks what you are using your trans out for is basically exactly the same type of conditions that I want to be using my new bike for, I am really hung up between either the 750 or buying myself a Norden 901, as I love that platform but the value of the transalp seems to almost be too good. Do you have any of the protective equipment on the bike yet?
Just heard the part where you said, you have no armor on the bike yet
no I am waiting for armour for the bike I hope this or next week
I love my Norden 901. I’d never trade it for this Honda!
@@TheFastphillwhat bike will you put it on?
@@TheFastphillwill you be getting Honda protection? Here in Canada is so expensive for engine guards, skid plate ect. 1500-2000k. That’s crazy.
So, I'm pretty close to finalising the fast and nimble Transalp XL 750. But at around 16.5K USD (we pay some crazy import taxes) it does seem like a whole lot for its Plain Jane Specs. 2K extra for a off-road /touring capable Rally Build: Tubeless and Suspension Upgrades. So, total 16K USD (5 years Honda Warranty)
Option 2 is a pre-owned 2019 CRF1000L Africa Twin DCT: clocked 30k kms (decat, poee commander + tubeless spokes rims with heavy duty XL rims + supersrox sprockets + Galfer Wave Rotors + HyperPro Springs Front-Rear + Sprint Waterproof Air Filter + Panniers + Denali D7 and other upgrades) for the same price.
What say to that??
@2-WheelsMoveThe Soul i too was looking for a 2nd hand CRF 1000L but when to XL750 came along i figured its about 40 Kgs lighter it was going to be New and i will try not to add weight or do suspension work it has proved to be capable o off road on road i just doing a vid for its 7500 km total now
@@TheFastphill Do share details of the upgrades and modifications. Looking forward to the videos.
@@TheFastphill Booked my Transalp XL 750. Delivery in FEB 2024!
@2-wheelsmove thesoul i think you will be happy with the XL 750
you have to turn traction off when you go off road, unridable otherwise, I had the same issue first time I tried to ride up a dirt hill, came to a complete stop.
@chrisobrien3574 yes Chris I don't want the bike to think for me
But I didn't read the manual or get much help for the shop
I was trying to get 1000 kms on it so I could have it serviced before I went home
He’s right, got to turn it off or your done.
Suzuki V-Strom 800de are better for off road riding good low to mid range power tractability removable rear subframe better suspension and clearance and better protection underneath bike but the Honda is still doable and a nice bike still
@vaughndrew852 sorry i have not ridden the Suzuki V strom
Standard gearing is quite tall, 7mph at tick over is too fast for me off road, and 6th is really tall more like an over drive. When chain and sprockets are due a change I'll gear down a bit.
@gronno i was thinking about you comment over the weekend i Did some tough climbs in and out of some creek crossing on the weekend and didn't thing it was geared to high
Mate, that was one lucky windscreen!🤣
Also, how long are B&B Offroad from having their bash plate ready?
@pmg8504 yes as i was sliding throught the sand i was thinking the same
sorry not sure about B and B offroad
I think they have it ready to order!
@@pmg8504 i got my bash plate in the mail today
I'm surprised you picked the Transalp given it's pedigree of not really being off pavement biased. For riding around mostly in the dirt in Aus, wouldn't a KTM 890 Adventure (or any of Tenere 700, Triumph Tiger 900, Aprilia Tuareg 660, etc) been a better fit for your needs, or a lighter weight dual sport? Just curious...
@alanosborne i have a CRF 450X plated with a big tank A CRF 450 L A Shreco 300 SE 2 Smoke and 300 SEF 4 stroke
so the Transalp is for longer rides so for its been a very good bike
I've been waiting since Spring for this bike to arrive in Canada. Now that I have it and spent some time on it I I'll sell it and move on. The bike definitely doesn't live up to the hype. Sorry Honda, that is the wrong engine for that bike. It needs torque not HP.
@Cardus501 I tried to find a toque and power graph both the power and toque peak are high in the rev range but the bike still pulls from low and it has a very usable rev range strong until 10 000 rpm
Really? Where abouts are ya. I’m in Ontario and was thinking to sell my Honda 300L for something else. I mean the Aprila 660 looks bit better for spec but i feel safe with a Honda but worried it will underperform or be boring.
Cool. I clicked "Subscribe" and "Like
Thanks @user-jr5wu1ul2s
Im little worried if at 75kg your bottoming out the suspension at 95 plus gear its definitely going to need suspension upgrade
@danielandersson i going to try not to do the suspension But i not as heavy as you
on my other little bikes i can jump water bars on the Transalp sometime i have to roll them 😂
But tuned for the STREET in the USA. 🤬🤬
@mechcavandy986 in Australia its turned for the street as well so far it handled the dirt very well with off road tyres it should be great
strikes me that you need to be careful before you end up in a shi7hole you can't get out of
Yes odds say i will ride the XL 750 somewhere i shouldn't LOL 😂
I don’t think you really know what you are doing..😂😂😂
@rogernam2092 But i am out there
