Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda XL750 Transalp 2023

In the long-term test, the Honda XL750 Transalp proves to be a versatile and reliable adventure bike that combines touring comfort with solid off-road capability. It is not a sports bike, but an honest, uncomplicated adventure bike for anyone looking for a reliable bike for road and gravel. Minor weaknesses in the suspension and electronic settings hardly spoil the overall very positive impression.

Balanced ergonomics

Height touring comfort

Cultivated engine

Reliable

Good-natured handling

Solid off-road capabilities

Good braking performance

Smooth clutch

Non-adjustable windscreen

Soft suspension

ABS not fully disengageable

Traction control resets itself

Narrow knee angle

Little punch in the upper rev range

Aprilia Tuareg 660 2024

The Aprilia Tuareg 660 is an extremely smooth-running adventure bike. This applies to the linear revving engine, the fine clutch and the low weight of the Italian. It scores particularly well off-road. At the Bosnia Rally, it was able to take on almost everything and was even convincing in crisp off-road terrain. Small weak points, such as an engine that dies too quickly and a screw on the gear lever that is in danger of breaking, can hardly spoil the fun on it. With its powerful travel, the lightweight is interesting for all adventure bike riders who have off-road ambitions but want more electronics than in the purist Yamaha Tenere.

Linear, finely controllable power delivery

Finely controllable clutch

Successful ergonomics, both sitting and standing

Lush, well-functioning electronics package

Good suspension with long travel

Engine has little flywheel mass, tends to die off quickly

rear brake bites a little too hard for loose surfaces

less robust cast aluminium screw on the gear lever as a weak point in the event of falls/crashes
