    Mr Hondas Interweb Pages

    How strange .
    Just went to have a look for some specs on Mr hondas web site and found that The Tranny has vanished. BigV's and Baby V's but no Alps.

    Is there something they aren't telling us????
    Gold 700 TA, Touring screen,Heated grips, Givi Panniers & Top box, Centre Stand, Bar Risers Fenda Extenda and Scott Oiler. So Far (still hoping for some Crash Bars)......... Oh and nearly forgot, A wife with a Hog , Back in the saddle after some spinal carpentry and looking forward to making up for the lost 18 months

    You're not wrong! That's a Transalp that's not there if ever I saw one.

    Has the Trannie been fitted with a new "stealth" kit?

    Have they used all the 700 twins in the incredibly popular DN01?

    Enquiring minds need to know!

    Also 4x4 with a towbar - and a trailer!

    The DN01 uses an 800 cc engine.

    Nope, it's the same 680 cc engine that's used in XL700V(A) Transalp and NT700V(A) Deauville...

    Could it be because the production is moving from Spain to Italy this month ?

    Maybe they want to see if the Italian ones stay in one piece before letting them go out on sale !

    Mystery solved!

    Quote from Honda UK

    Sometimes while our website is being updated, certain models can disappear for a short while. I would like to confirm that the Transalp is still a current model into 2010 and should appear back on our website shortly.
