WARNING: ONLY THE REAR WHEEL HAS A SAFETY BEAD. NOT THE FRONT WHEEL!!!!
I have done my research and am willing to accept that risk. Do your own research.

After 10 days sitting under the cover, the cheap tank pad are coming off.
I'll replace them with the same Daytona clear vinal until I figure out how to get "TechSpec" pads in Japan.
I'm like you, I must have tubeless wheels. I was going to get the Transalp except 1) no cruise control. I gotta have that for living in Los Angeles and the amount of freeway driving I do to get away to the mountains. I'm instead getting the Noren 901. Fully loaded, has everything. I love it!
@mrbjay5443 tubeless and veridiancruise were both cheap.
I was looking at the nordan too. But the reliability issues. On a cooler day the left side was pumper heat onto my leg and I know the catalytic is known for melting the rear shock.
Ktm and Aprilia make better bikes, but the reliability trouble people are having are barely acceptable for a heavily used bike, let alone a new one that costs more than the competition.
Great video, dig that thermometer mod! 🍻 subscribed!
Thansk. I looked as some digital ones but figured cheap and simple is fun
Nice bike dude, beautiful!
Thought about this one or the NC750DCT as a commuter (55 kilos each way).
Don't think they do this with DCT, though.
I see a fella (here in Central Japan) commuting on an Africa Twin 1100DCT some mornings, and he goes through traffic nicely, but Tokyo roads... Not for me.
Had a Suzuki V-Strom 650 (Japan spec) from new in 2013, but having left hand joint issues, I swapped for a new 2018 Tmax530 scooter, which I have never grown to like, so back to "bikes" as it were, and your bike's cousin, the NC is the most likely choice, and which I, too will probably keep for about 10 years (about 220,000 kilos).
Enjoy your ride.
Only missing tubeless and cruise control now :) But before you do anything else, put some miles on that thing! It's only got 33km on the odo! When I got my new 790 3 weeks ago, I put 200km on the first day :P
331km this past weekend.
Won't be adding anything else till 1000km and the first service
Why did Honda choose tubes for transalp? Ps I vote Nitron
@@MattieXMoto save money and trick people into buying the africatwin
Btw...if honda released transalp wo tubes from factory would you trade?
@MattieXMoto no. Upgrading to vmx wheels would be cheaper than the money I'd lose on trade in
man,why tuareg is so expensive in japan?almost at the price of africa.here in greece,is about the same money with vstrom800de,which is a little more expensive than transalp and tenere.may ask a question.the decals in this transalp are lacquered,or can be removed?
They are painted on.
Japan has a high import tax. Plus the cost of shipping it half way around the world
Also, honda is made in Japan. No shipping or import fees
Should have just got the Africa Twin.
Because either Weighs more? Costs more? Or preforms worse on the road?
@@KairyuRider Because the AT is better equipped, more capable off road and as a tourer, and will hold its value better than a modified Transalp.
@cameronsays I won't be able to afford a new bike for 10 years. Neither will hold much value.
More weight and higher center of gravity won't be better off road. While off road will be less than 10% of the ride.
More features isn't better, just more.
It was also less comfortable than the transalp.
And any resale value is lost after how many years of paying more for much more for gas and insurance.
Well said@@KairyuRider
