The NT1100 defined a new breed of Honda tourer when introduced as 22 year model, offering comfort, agility and hugely enjoyable performance. Building on its success, the NT received a major upgrade for 25YM with an emphasis on further increasing rider comfort. The twin-cylinder engine received a mid-range performance boost, while a six-axis IMU added extra precision to several electronic rider aids. A new variant, the NT1100 Electronic Suspension, was also added to the range that added a sophisticated ride.
The NT’s sleek fairing was redrawn with sharper, more aggressive styling and topped by a revised height-adjustable screen that can now be operated one handed. The upper and lower wind deflectors were also reprofiled to ensure greater high-speed aerodynamic efficiency and outstanding weather protection. The NT1100’s lighting was also updated with twin LED headlights that integrate DRLs and indicators for increased visibility and safety. The rear of the front mudguard was extended 150mm for extra weather protection, a larger seat increased comfort and both standard-fit panniers were increased in size to offer larger internal volume. For 27YM, the NT1100 and NT1100 Electronic Suspension retain all of the plus points that made them so popular across Europe and gain new colour options, ensuring that Europe’s best-selling tourer remains at the top of its game.
