Honda XL700V TRANSALP 2009 Parts & Accessories

Introduced in 2008 to replace the XL650V, the Honda XL700V Transalp was produced through 2012, bringing major modernizations to Honda's long-running middleweight adventure touring series. Fitted with a larger 680 cc 52° V-twin engine featuring 4-valve cylinder heads and PGM-FI fuel injection, the XL700V delivered sharper throttle response, cleaner emissions, and improved highway efficiency. The XL700V shifted the model toward a more road-biased adventure-touring role by introducing a smaller 19-inch front wheel, restyled aerodynamic bodywork, an updated frame, and optional Combined ABS (C-ABS).
