The NC700X crossover offers the long-travel suspension, agility and commanding riding position of an off-road bike, but Honda says its new crossover provides a fun, engaging riding experience coupled with practicality for daily commuting, too.
Powering the NC700X is a liquid-cooled, in-line two-cylinder 670cc engine capable of 38.1kW at 6250rpm and 60Nm at 4750rpm and has a claimed fuel consumption of 3.5l/100km (14.1 fuel tank). The engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission
During the development, Honda’s research showed that 90% of riding involved speeds of 140km/h or less and engine speeds of 6000rpm or less.
As a result the powerplant of the NC700X is ideally suited to this kind of usage, with strong torque characteristics across the rev range typically used.
BEST OF BOTH WORLDS
Ideally suited to commuting in the city, the bike also inspires an adventurous spirit at the weekend. A long tour, a leisurely ride into the countryside or a trip into the city with a passenger to meet friends – the NC700X is ready for anything.
The NC700X features a protective windscreen to provide comfort even at speed.
The new model has a relaxed and comfortable upright riding position with a high viewpoint for enhanced hazard perception. Another advantage of this riding position is low-speed control.
Combined with the machine’s low centre of gravity and generous steering lock, the result is exceptional low-speed handling and agility.
The NC700X features an internal storage space large enough to
accommodate a full-face helmet. Together with the fuel filler cap, this
space is accessed using a key to unlock and flip-up the seat.
The suspension (153.5mm at the front and 150mm at the rear) on the NC700X is set to ensure smooth ride.
Price:
NC700X - R64 999 (Only non ABS units available in South Africa)
Service intervals are every 12 000km. The model will be launched in a choice of colours including Digital Silver Metallic, Pearl Sunbeam White and Magna Red.
