The 2023 Makina Moto Show will be opening its doors in a few days, and motorcycle makers are starting to put out teasers of the bikes they’ll be launching at the show.

Honda Philippines (HPI) has gone ahead and posted a silhouette of what appears to be a new big bike that’s set to be unveiled on Friday. Before we give you our guess, we’ll let you have a look at the Facebook teaser first. Here you go:

Our guess is that it’s the XL750 Transalp, the retro adventure bike that Honda launched at EICMA last year. HPI’s photo shows the front clip of a bike with a huge windshield up top. Compare it with the Transalp’s front end, you’ll see that both the shape of the headlight and even the size of the windscreen check out.

We don’t know about you, but our resident rider at Top Gear Philippines—that may or may not be me—is already getting very excited at the thought of the Transalp landing here. Of course, we’d still need to wait a bit more before we see the wraps come off this new bike, so let’s sit tight and wait for now. In the meantime, if you have any other guesses, drop them in the comments.
