​ @nomadmotorcycle Hello so by your suggestion I bought a transalp 650 2007 :) i like the bike but I went highway with it for 1 hour and it was HORRIBLE, the bike can reach 160km/h and it accelerates easily,but already at 100km/h it is sounding and feels like it "struggles" it is not smooth it feels rough, it was serviced by the last owner,now i paid 250€ for another service and its still the same,is the bike just like that? or could it be spark plugs as those are the only ones that weren't changed,i changed air filter,oil filter,coolant system 2hour clean and refill, etc...please help me pegaso 650 was the same "rough" but it was only 1 cylinder...

@@bucka-y3i Hi... Sorry you seem disappointed with Transalp. These bikes are not perfect for the highway, for that you can find a much better choice. Mine, tops out also around 160 - 170 it's the max. Maybe it sounds like it struggles because of 5 gears, so it's quite high in rev range in 5th gear. But still it's far smoother than Pegaso for me. It should not vibrate a lot, otherwise there is something off with the bike. Check if the chain and sprockets are stock sizes. Or maybe a carburetor tune is what you need. Overall mine js very smooth and does not vibrate a lot. What tires are you using? I have no issues up to 130 Km/h. After that it's not that enjoyable.

@@bucka-y3i yes, it's really missing a 6th gear. I would check in time, valve clearance and maybe just carburetor syncing.

@@removilmata5377 Tractor. I've had one for twelve years that I've had zero km on and I don't have the courage to sell it. It goes through the pasture, comes out onto the asphalt and reaches 192 km/h at the end. Lots of torque at low speed, maintains 160 km/h when climbing with a pillion. Its consumption is between 17 km/l at 180 km/h and 25 km/l at 100 km/h with a pillion. Obviously it all depends on the softening and mine was well softened. It has a bubble that cuts the wind perfectly. It doesn't heat your legs, the fan blows the wind to the right side of the tank, in front of your legs and not directly on them, and it only turns on on very hot days. Good cycling, it doesn't have any mechanics, now, there is a small manufacturing defect which is the fuel tank float which hasn't worked properly since new and I never wanted to fix it so as not to affect the bike too much. In Portugal there are several that run for more than 250,000 km without opening the engine... It is one of the best motorcycles ever made by man, it has been perfected for over 20 years. The gear shifting is perfect. When it reached perfection, it was taken out of production because it didn't provide any mechanics. He won several Alpine Big Trails competitions in Europe, including competing with the BMW R1200GS. Its engine is the Deauville, it works like a Swiss watch, it is completely linear, but with a lot of torque in all gears. It's a motorcycle for those who understand motorcycles.

About being fuel injected - I have transalp 700 that is EFI, and there it's electronics does not compensate the fact that overall it's worse bike than 650. My 700 bottoms out very often, it feels much more heavier, clearance is lower and front fork is something out of the scooter. With 700 honda went for the tarmac/asphalt adventure, it's good for traveling around Europe but only good single tracks and absolutely no off-road. In other words, it would be nice to have Transalp 650 with EFI but Transalp 700 is no way a solution to this problem. It's completely different bike and to be honest I don't think 700 has a place in Transalp line. Look for 750 if you want a continuation of 650. My friend has 650 and keeps it in my garage, that's why I know what is 650 and how it rides. Please get sure you can remove cat. I had to cut out contents of it to remove restriction of gasses but could not remove it because of local laws. Make sure you can do it. For me no-cat pipes are not the option (Eastern EU), I would fail MOT instantly.

Yes, i complain about that sometimes, even if i don't have a really straightforward reason. My brother in law, has a Transalp 700 which i rode so many times, and i love the way that engine is performing. But i never rode it off road and i always come back to my 650 after riding 700 and keep thinking that i prefer it much more than 700. I agree with you totally. They are completely different bikes and 700 feels much heavier, even after that 659 is also a heavy bike. Honda went away from the Transalp culture with that model. But still, a really great bike to have and ride. Something about these old Honda's is special. I guess that new 750 is a true comeback for Honda. And i sat on the new and it feels much more compact and better than those older ones. Regarding cat it's still legal to do it in my country but i don't know for how long. I can pass the MOT for maybe next year or two. That's why i want to keep the original setup in case i have to revert it to stock.
