Intro

NT1100 – 25YM

With acombination of wide­ranging abilities and rich specification, already over 12,000 NT1100s have been sold, and it was Europe’s most popular sports tourer in 2023. For 25YM the NT1100 is receiving major upgrades to engine performance, practicality, and long­range comfort, as well as the introduction of an Electronic Suspension option. And, in the process, looks set to cement its place in Honda’s large range as one of motorcycling’s ultimate all­rounders.

Model Overview

New for 25YM is the NT1100 Electric Suspension, which features Showa Electronically Equipped Ride Adjustment (Showa-EERA™) suspension. Offered alongside the standard Showa suspension-equipped ‘standard’ NT1100, the advanced Showa-EERA™ offers optimised damping in all riding conditions and situations, as well as the ability to adjust rear spring preload on the move.

As before, the steel semi-double cradle frame employs a relatively short wheelbase and sharp steering geometry. Dual 310mm front discs are paired with 4-piston radial-mount callipers; tyres are sized 120/70-17 front and 180/55-17 rear.

A 6.5-inch TFT touch screen provides full colour, Cruise control, upgraded heated grips, ACC and USB charging sockets, self-cancelling indicators and Emergency Stop Signals (ESS) are also standard fit, as is a centre stand.
