Honda CTX 700 N DCT ABS
2015
2015
The 2015 Honda CTX700N DCT ABS offers a unique approach to motorcycling. It sits somewhere between a cruiser and a standard motorcycle, offering a comfortable riding experience with modern features. As a member of the CTX family, which aimed for "Comfort, Technology, and eXperience," it offers an alternative to more traditional cruisers or naked bikes. Competitors in this space include models like the Kawasaki Vulcan S, which also offers a more approachable and customizable riding experience for new and experienced riders alike.
Powering the 2015 CTX700N is a 670.0 ccm (40.88 cubic inches) parallel-twin engine. This engine configuration provides a broad spread of torque, making it suitable for various riding conditions. The inclusion of Honda's Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) offers riders the option of fully automatic gear changes, simplifying the riding experience, or manual shifting via handlebar-mounted buttons. The fuel capacity is 12.40 litres (3.28 US gallons), providing a decent range for commuting or weekend rides. The inclusion of ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) adds an extra layer of safety, especially in less-than-ideal road conditions.
The CTX700N prioritizes rider comfort. The seat height is a relatively low 720 mm (28.3 inches), even at its lowest setting, making it accessible for riders of various heights. This low seat, combined with a relaxed riding position, reduces strain on the back and wrists. The naked bike styling results in an upright stance, which is more comfortable than the leaned-forward posture of a sportbike. The DCT further contributes to ease of use, especially in stop-and-go traffic, as it eliminates the need to constantly engage the clutch.
The Honda CTX700N DCT ABS 2015 is designed for riders who prioritize comfort and ease of use over outright performance. It's an excellent choice for commuters, new riders, or experienced riders looking for a relaxed and user-friendly motorcycle. The DCT transmission and low seat height make it particularly appealing to those who might find traditional motorcycles intimidating. It provides a smooth and manageable ride, making it a practical and enjoyable option for everyday motorcycling.
✅ Why buy this bike?
• DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) offers smooth, clutchless gear changes, simplifying riding and reducing fatigue, especially in urban environments. • The low seat height (28.3 inches) makes it very accessible and confidence-inspiring for shorter riders or those with limited mobility. • ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) provides enhanced safety and control during emergency braking situations and on slippery surfaces. • Fuel efficiency is excellent, making it a practical and economical choice for commuting and longer rides. • The parallel-twin engine delivers ample low-end torque, providing strong acceleration from a standstill and in lower gears. • Comfortable upright riding position reduces strain on the back and wrists, making it suitable for daily use and touring.⚠️ Things to consider
• The DCT can feel slightly disconnected to some riders, lacking the direct feedback of a traditional manual transmission. • The styling is somewhat polarizing; some may find it bland or uninspired compared to more sporty or aggressive designs. • Suspension is basic and may feel inadequate on rough roads or when carrying a passenger and luggage. • Limited ground clearance can be an issue when leaning aggressively in corners or navigating uneven terrain.Rule of thumb: under 125cc / 15HP → A1, under 47HP → A2, above → A.
