The Honda Transalp has been manufactured in Japan by Honda since 1987, with the XL600V from 1986 as its first model. It was developed from a prototype built in 1985 as an off-road motorbike with a 500 cc engine, which was enlarged to 600 cc during development along with more features for the road, notably a better fairing. Its liquid-cooled, four-stroke 52 degree V-twin engine produced 50 hp at 8,000 rpm and the first Transalps weighed 175 kg.
