The XL750 Transalp is powered by a 755cc, liquid-cooled, parallel-twin engine that churns out 90hp at 9,500rpm and torque of up to 75Nm at 7,250rpm. The bike comes with a six-speed gearbox and assist/slipper clutch for smooth rides across different terrains. It also flaunts Showa's 43mm upside-down SFF-CA front forks and Pro-Link rear mono-shock for improved damping and control.

Five riding modes for different terrains

The bike rides on a 21-inch front and 18-inch rear spoked wheel setup with dual-channel ABS for safety. It also gets dual 310mm front disks and a 256mm rear disk for effective braking performance across different terrains.
