Since its introduction in 2012 NC750X has enjoyed consistent popularity mainly due to its ground-breaking, torque-laden twin-cylinder engine, which sips fuel while punching the bike forward in the low-to-mid rpm ranges, the relaxed, roomy riding position, wide handlebars and comfortable seat and riding position, the compliant, long-travel suspension and distinctive adventure styling all play their part.
For 2020, the NC is powered by a 745cc parallel twin engine producing 40.3kW @ 6,250rpm peak power and 68Nm @ 4,750rpm torque. The parallel twin puts out strong low-to-mid range torque, delivering strong acceleration from very low rpm. It returns 28.6km/l (WMTC mode) and features 2 Level Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), which can also be turned off.
The NC750X’s DCT features a natural ‘feathered’ clutch feel around an on/off throttle. In addition to the most fuel efficient automatic D Mode, for sportier riding there are 3 levels of S mode.
The riding position is upright and neutral, with a higher viewpoint for enhanced hazard perception. The NC750X’s rugged steel diamond frame delivers the high levels of rigidity required for agile, responsive handling.
41mm telescopic forks feature 153.5mm travel and use Showa Dual Bending Valves, with ratios optimised for both compression and rebound damping.
