Handling is key to this, and the NC700S offers a direct, intuitive, confidence-inspiring ride for all levels of experience. The low seat position adds to the accessibility of the machine, and the engine appeals to all kinds of rider, with its smooth, responsive power and a strong feeling of low-rpm torque. The result is a machine that takes no time at all to get used to with a direct and uncomplicated responses bringing joy to anyone who rides it. As well as fun, the machine had to be easy to use and versatile. The riding position gives a high degree of control and freedom; there is also a secure internal storage space large enough to accommodate a full-face helmet, an unusually practical feature on a naked motorcycle.
The motorcycle is available with both Hondas antilock Combined Braking System (C-ABS) and the option of the second generation of Hondas Dual Clutch Transmission, which offers fingertip manual operation or the ease of completely automatic functionality.
At the heart of the machine is an all-new purpose-built engine. The liquid-cooled, in-line 2-cylinder 670 cm3 engine is a lightweight and compact unit with a low centre of gravity. It offers a very usable power delivery with excellent torque at low to medium engine rpm, combined with low exhaust gas emissions and a truly outstanding level of fuel efficiency.
The NC700S fuses striking, futuristic design with a joyous and reasonable-cost riding experience, complemented by the versatility and ease of use that matter when a vehicle is to be used daily. It is a machine for getting back to the fundamentals of motorcycling: fun and mobility.

Developed to provide responsive power and strong torque in a compact
package, the new 670cm3 inline two-cylinder engine also meets the demands of
todays environmental concerns by being highly fuel-efficient (27km/litre)
for a tank range of nearly 400km.
Versatility and practicality With its internal storage compartment, protective fairing and windscreen and commanding riding position, the NC700S is ready for anything, whether city or long distance riding.
Fun and intuitive handling Light in weight, pure and swift in its handling responses, the NC700S is fun and easy to handle thanks to the combination of the steel diamond frame, cast aluminum 17 wheels and accomplished chassis geometry.

Optional Dual Clutch Transmission The NC700S is available with either a conventional manual 6-speed transmission or the second generation of Hondas Dual Clutch Transmission. The system uses two hydraulic controlled clutches to deliver swift and very smooth gear changes in a choice of three modes. Manual (MT) allows the rider to shift gears using buttons, while automatic mode (AT) offers two settings: S for sporty riding and D for everyday use.
