Honda XL750 Transalp vs Yamaha R7

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Honda XL750 Transalp (2025) and the Yamaha R7 (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda XL750 Transalp is a adventure bike with 755 cc, 90.5 hp and 210 kg; the Yamaha R7 is a sport bike with 689 cc, 72.4 hp and 189 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 317.6 hp/ton versus 274.3 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda XL750 Transalp is 16% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda XL750 Transalp covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 3.23 s and the Yamaha R7 in 3.41 s; the Honda XL750 Transalp is quicker by 0.18 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.4 m for the Honda XL750 Transalp (with ABS) and 40.0 m for the Yamaha R7 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS). The Yamaha R7 stops 1.4 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 196 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 202 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for both. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
