=Modifications=
==Africa Twin XRV750==
Many parts from the XRV750 and XRV650 Africa Twins are interchangeable with the Transalp.  [http://www.bbb-bike.com/history/honda/africatwin/ This page] (Japanese) has a full history of the Africa Twin.
 
===Fuel Tank===
RD03 and RD04 fuel tanks (identical other than color scheme) fit the Transalp frame.  According to [http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39170&page=136 this page], "the left AT petcock is the same as the petcock for a 1990 NT650 Honda Hawk" ([[http://houseofmotorcycles.bikebandit.com/honda-motorcycle-nt650-hawk-gt-1990/o/m2452  $55 at BikeBandit.com].
 
==Brakes==
*[http://members.aol.com/xr650rr/ XR650RR Super Motard] mentions a Braking oversized rotor kit on an XR650L (despite the XR650RR title).
* See [[Transalp Brakes]] for information.
 
=Accessories=
 
==Luggage==
 
===Racks===
*[http://www.happy-trail.com Happy Trail] manufactures strong luggage mounting hardware and aluminum panniers.  Their mounting kits are also usable with GIVI and Pelican cases.
*[http://www.givi.it GIVI] manufactures topcase adapters which replace the plate on the Transalp's handy rear carrier.  They also produce crashbars.
* The E200 Monorack plate for *Monokey* topcases is available from [https://s.hostingprod.com/@www.midwestcycle.com/ssl/store/view_product.php?product=E200 Midwest Cycle Supply], [http://store.azmusa.com/azmotorsports/common.html AZ Motorsports], and [http://www.happy-trail.com/productinfo.aspx?productid=154&categoryid=31&startpage=1 Happy Trail].  The E200 is for 1988-1996 applications.  Note that the E211 may also be listed, but is for 1997-1998 applications.
 
===Cases===
 
==Crashbars==
* The TN363 crash bars are available from [http://store.azmusa.com/azmotorsports/giencaguforh.html AZ Motorsports] and [http://happy-trail.com/productinfo.aspx?productid=162&categoryid=10&startpage=1 Happy Trail].  Mounting these to a US-spec Transalp requires longer bolts across the front and minor trimming of the bike's plastic radiator guard.
 
==Misc==
* [http://www.old-site.africanqueens.de/home_e.htm African Queens] sells hard-core accessories.
 
* [[TransalpModifications|Modifications]] that are possible.
