3 Reasons Why The 2025 Honda NC750X Is A Great Touring Bike
Think about capable crossover-type touring bikes, and the Honda NC750X comes out as one of the underdogs. Honda barely does any marketing for it, yet the NC has several fans worldwide and sits below the venerable NT1100. Owing to that, the Japanese company has made its middleweight crossover better than ever with simple updates. And here’s why the 2025 Honda NC750X is a great touring bike.
Punchy Engine With An Easy-Going Transmission
The engine and transmission have to be a highlight here. Why? Because it is hugely understressed (just around 60 horsepower from nearly 750cc), very reliable, and still promises a punch. Both its torque and power kick in under 7,000 RPM, and all of it is instant because of the dual-clutch transmission. Just twist and off you go.

Comfortable Ergonomics
Ergonomics and ride quality are two other strong suits of the 2025 Honda NC750X. You sit on a large single-piece seat, with your hands on tall tubular bars and feet on mid-set footpegs. So you end up in an upright posture, which should be okay for both long distances and short commutes.
Elsewhere, the simple underpinnings and tight dimensions elevate the package. You get telescopic forks and a monoshock, attached to 17-inch wheels. The former means repairs will be easy while the latter means you can put on all sorts of tires with ease. All this while, the seat height is a low 31.6 inches, and the weight is under 500 pounds.
No Shortage Of Likable Features
When aboard, you’ll also dig the features. A five-inch TFT is new for 2025, and it comes with smartphone connectivity via the Honda RoadSync app. We also dig the different view modes for TFT to be easy to read. A new set of backlit switchgear is present, too, which is more usable than the previous model. Aside from these, you get simple riding aids as well. It includes ride modes, traction control, and dual-channel ABS.
