We've seen the other videos out there with folks riding the Transalp leisurely along 2 lane roads and gravel tracks. But, what if you want to ride the Transalp hard? Let's really test this bike and start challenging people's often misguided perceptions. Does it stack up to the Yamaha Tenere 700 and Suzuki V-Strom 800DE? What about compared to it's bigger brother the Africa Twin? We drop the bike multiple times and inspect the damage. We ride a sand wash, test the suspension, electronics, brakes, freeway high speed ability, wind management, sport riding, and more. #motorcycle #motorbike #advrider #transalp #honda
