Aimed at riders seeking an everyday machine, it competes directly with models like the Yamaha MT-07 and Kawasaki Z650, offering a sensible alternative in the mid-size naked bike category.
At the heart of the NC750S is a 745.0 ccm parallel-twin engine. This powerplant produces a respectable 54.0 HP (39.4 kW) at 6250 RPM, providing adequate power for commuting and weekend rides. More importantly, it generates a usable 68.0 Nm (6.9 kgf-m or 50.2 ft.lbs) of torque at a low 4750 RPM, ensuring strong acceleration from lower speeds. The fuel tank has a capacity of 14.10 litres (3.73 US gallons), contributing to a long riding range between fill-ups.
The NC750S prioritizes rider comfort and ease of handling. Its upright stance offers a comfortable riding position, suitable for daily use. The seat height is 790 mm (31.1 inches), which, while not adjustable, caters to a wide range of rider sizes, making it easy to flat-foot at stops. The bike's suspension is tuned for comfort, absorbing bumps and irregularities in the road effectively. While not a track-focused machine, the NC750S provides a confident and stable riding experience.
The 2016 Honda NC750S is targeted towards practical riders who value fuel efficiency, ease of use, and a comfortable riding experience. It's an excellent choice for commuters, new riders, or anyone looking for a no-nonsense motorcycle that is easy to live with. The underseat "frunk" further enhances its practicality, providing convenient storage space. Overall, the NC750S is a competent and sensible motorcycle that prioritizes usability and efficiency above all else.
✅ Why buy this bike?
• Excellent fuel economy (around 70-80 mpg) makes it a very budget-friendly option for daily commuting and longer trips. • The integrated storage compartment (where the fuel tank usually is) offers practical space for a helmet or groceries. • The torquey parallel-twin engine provides ample low-end and mid-range power, ideal for everyday riding and comfortable cruising. • Available with Honda's DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) offers smooth, automatic gear changes for ease of use in city traffic. • Low seat height inspires confidence, making it accessible for riders of various sizes and experience levels. • Reliable Honda engineering ensures long-term durability and reduced maintenance costs compared to some competitors.⚠️ Things to consider
• The engine's power output is relatively modest compared to other 750cc motorcycles, limiting its appeal for performance-oriented riders. • The suspension components are fairly basic, providing a comfortable ride on smooth roads but lacking sophistication for aggressive riding. • The styling is somewhat utilitarian and may not appeal to riders seeking a more visually exciting or sporty aesthetic. • The exhaust note is quite muted, lacking the characteristic rumble or growl that some riders prefer from a motorcycle. • DCT models can feel slightly disconnected compared to a traditional manual transmission, especially during spirited riding.With 54 HP, requires full Class A license. Riders must be 24+ or have 2 years A2 experience (20+).
