2017
The 2017 Honda NC750X continues the lineage of Honda's practical and fuel-efficient motorcycle series. It offers a balanced approach to riding, appealing to riders who prioritize usability over outright sportiness. This model competes directly with bikes like the Yamaha Tracer 700, offering a similar adventure-touring aesthetic and focus on everyday practicality.
At the heart of the 2017 NC750X lies a 745.0 ccm (45.46 cubic inches) twin-cylinder, four-stroke engine. This powerplant generates a usable 54.0 HP (39.4 kW) at 6250 RPM. More importantly, the engine produces a substantial 68.0 Nm (6.9 kgf-m or 50.2 ft.lbs) of torque at a relatively low 4750 RPM. This low-end torque allows for effortless acceleration and relaxed cruising. The fuel tank has a capacity of 14.10 litres (3.73 US gallons) providing a decent range.
The NC750X offers a comfortable and confidence-inspiring riding experience. The seat height is 830 mm (32.7 inches), which may be a reach for shorter riders, but provides a commanding view of the road. The riding position is upright and neutral, making it suitable for longer journeys. While not a track-focused machine, the NC750X handles well in various conditions, offering predictable and stable handling.
The 2017 Honda NC750X is aimed at riders who value practicality and fuel efficiency. It is a great option for commuters, weekend tourers, and those looking for an easy-to-ride and versatile motorcycle. The combination of usable power, comfortable ergonomics, and reasonable running costs makes it a sensible choice for riders seeking a dependable and user-friendly machine.
