They managed to squeeze 100hp from 1084cc engine! What is it with the recent craze for bigger engines with low power outputs? R7 is a prime example, 72hp from 689cc (in a supposed sports bike). For years bikes edged towards 200hp per litre, now we've gone back to under 100hp per litre. I guess those lazy engines will last forever though.
Euro 5 regs, engines are made bigger but detuned for lower emissions.
Detuning engines for those high reliability numbers but none of the fun
No one would want a tourer with a crazy high revving engine.
Honda nc700 was 50hp from 669cc 10 years ago. It was the trend setter incapables just can’t see.
Torque!
If you're going to make something boring, at least put a shaft drive on it.
Other than the CBr1000RR-R. Most of Honda's lineup has been on the boring side lately.
@@kugangles9860 Its always been that way
@@johna6968 The RC30 would like to have a word. But yeah boring for the last 30 years for sure.
@@rarekid740 VFR 800 was not boring. But otherwise, yeah.
2022 model and no IMU and cornering ABS, even though the Rebel and Africa Twin have it. The Japanese manufacturers are way off the pace these days.
Pillion seat looks small and uncomfy for such a big bike. Is it?
one word..... BLAND!!!!!!
I guess one could argue the side cases are at a disadvantage for not being deep enough to fit a helmet, but personally I’d take something like these, still provide the liter capacity but slimmer. I don’t like filtering through traffic and always being conscious about if my rear bags might clip a car. I guess you’d get used to it, but I do appreciate when manufacturers provide lower profile side cases. Just a personal preference really. I think Honda provided a good middle ground with front wind protection. Not so bulbous as an R1250RT but more protection than an Africa Twin I imagine.
Yes also twice of price too
You can’t fit a helmet into any pannier if you’re using it. If you’re not using it then they will be at home under the stairs. If the full review of this bike is like others I’ve seen, he will explain that you can fit two helmets in the top box.
@@aunoates6617 that’s a good point huh, and leads me to wonder why that factor is often brought up in these reviews. I was thinking to myself the times I have my panniers on (they’re fairly slim profile), I like being able to filter through traffic jams I might run into on the open road, and so the thought of not being able to do so while out on a tour is a disadvantage, but ya, if you have the panniers on to begin with, you’re likely using them so you wouldn’t be able to stick a helmet in anyways. Likely overthinking this TBH haha, but that’s where I’m coming from with my comment, regarding touring and still being able to filter easily.
Like you, I appreciate when suitcase are narrow enough not to wonder whether they might hit a car or not. But if Honda had made a better integration effort these suitcase could have been closer to the rear wheel hence deeper, enabling à helmet to fit in.
@@cdb9154 I understand that but have never really understood why you would prefer to walk around in leather trousers, carrying your underwear, when you could just carry your helmet instead or put two of them in the top box which you are more likely to keep empty.
Honda continues going down the same path which they started around 2007 which has cost them so much market share... Keep building scooter-esque motorcycles and keep losing sales
I love the looks of it but it's Over price in my opinion.
How does the road handling compare to the Africa Twin? And do you ride on top of it like you do on the Africa Twin? Thanks!
6.8 L per 100km, that is only 41.5 mpg ! ! A thirsty beast if you ask me to quench only 100 ponies. More powerful bikes weighing more or less the same do 50mpg. Looks nice and good build quality, although not my kind of bike. I would have the new Suzi gsx 1000 gt over this one all day for the same £££ and a lot more bike and power plus more mpg probably.
I can get 67 mpg from my 1200 GSA LC with 125 bhp on tap. This is dreadful. When the eco do-gooders ramp up petrol prices, as they will, don’t fancy the Honda. The X-ADV in shot is a better bet!
@@ianross225 Im sure if this tester rode your GSA it wouldnt be getting 67mpg
As claimed, the consumption is similar to my VFR, which I’m thinking of selling to purchase the NT. However, not sure I’d be trading up.
…..and symmetrical lights on at the front. Yes! Not those weird just one side on for normal lighting and the other side for full beam.
Are the wind deflectors any good ?
Love it with shaft drive
lot of info. not detailed. i.e. top box should fit 2 helmets ? well does it? adjustable windscreen? how is it adjustable? number of positions ? easy to adjust on the fly?
How is windnoise
on the helmet?
The whole north of Spain is really good to ride i personally recomend Asturias, good food, very nice scenery
Indeed especially Naranjo de Bulnes which is à wonderful Mountain. It worths à trip.
Am I really the only one who thinks this bike looks a bit dull? Like a Deauville did ...
No, you definitely aren't the only one. It's the bike equivalent of plain oatmeal. Does the job well, but with zero excitement or flavor.
Shit looks like a scooter. One of the lamest looking bikes on the market. Also a full size adventure tourer with 100 ho. GTFOH. Makes no sense at all.
I'd rather buy the NT700 as we knew it. At least it had shaft drive. And I bet the 700 had more low end torque. Not to mention stellar fuel consumption. It might have been ugly to us Americans but Europe loved that bike. I'd say they had the right idea but handed styling of to an idiot. Same with this Afric- I mean NT1100. No style.
Nope - I posted the same thing!
A bit dull. It’s a modern version of PC800. Hideous
Never though there auto touring bike a years ago. Now it happen. Damn good.
The baby of bmw rt and honda xadv!
Good review guys!
The full review coming soon!
Lol
How does this bike compare to a 2nd gen CBF1000f? I have a CBF and am curious if the NT would be a worthwhile upgrade?
Almost defiantly my next bike…. I am in love with my Forza 350 and want to keep it. So probably 2023 I will add one of these to the stable. Can’t wait to get a ride on one…
Love the look of the headlights and 70+ ft/lbs of torque.
When is it coming to America NY ?
Honda have put the front fairing off the xadv on it and used most things off the africa twin so this was a cheap model for them to produce.
Thanks for the look 👍🦘
How is the comfort compared to a BMW R1200GS Adventure?
No shaft drive as would have been too heavy with the combined weight of dct..fair enough- but a great alternative model would have been a manual gearbox/shaft drive combo. I hate lack of shaft drive options except in cruisers from Japanese manufacturers-all I want is a Deauville with this engine but doubt it will ever happen.
I can't imagine a less attractive motorbike.
How does it feel going over bumps or potholes?
Might as well get the AT then if roads are like Ontario!
Chain drive??
Seems like a missed opportunity to use their CB1000R engine in a "sport tourer" such as this." But Honda does everything on the conservative side lately.
Honda did that with the CBF1000 and it was a great bike. I have one and an Africa Twin in my shed and the CBF engine is fantastic. It suffers from the CBR stator issue however.
about missed opportunitys: they should haved used the V4!
@@basvanderlaan I had that bike too! The VFR 1200. In a roll-on anywhere between 100km/hr and 160km/hr the CBF would leave it for dead. The big viffer handles like a pig on rollerskates too.
Is there not a manual gearbox version ?
Both are available but Honda pushes DCT.
Looks like a great competitor for the Yamaha Tracer and the BMW F900XR. Honda reliability is on par with Yamaha and light years ahead of BMW and all the Europeans (which all seem to now be made in China🤪).
A surprisingly good looking bike. Thanks for your first impression. I’ll definitely be having a look at one now. 👍😎🇦🇺
Thanks for the preview! Looks great, sounds great, seems like it is aiming for the "middle", as per many Honda rigs. Not a bad thing. Waiting for a full review!
People used to say “ I’m too old for a BMW” .... well not any more... where’s my Gs.
too young dont you mean ?
It is a great bike but it seems soulless. I am not sure what is lacking.
Horsepower?
From the front it looks like a scooter.
So do you.
thanks for mentioning that you are 6'4". I am 6'3" and wonder about fitment as most reviewer are shorter
The Dullsville is back.
😱
Looks like Honda has made a motorcycle to go from point A to point B🙄🙄
2:22 downshift this button here……..zooms in on 239 buttons 😳😂.
I look forward to a more detailed review of the Honda NT1100, so far more positives than negatives. Styling is bland as is the color choice of white, black and silver, nothing to get to excited about. Disappointed to hear the panniers do not hold a full size helmet. Positives are it supports a top box, has good seat height, looks like there is some good windshield adjustability, good display, USB charging port, center stand and heated grips. The engine is a carry over from the African Twin, horse power and torque should be adequate. The reviewer indicated the Honda NT1100 to be more of a tourer than a sports tourer, it had a comfortable ride however didn't like to be pushed in the corners. It appears Honda's focus was on a comfortable touring motorcycle with good wind protection versus performance and handling ...
If it had the inline 4 engine , I would buy it. The bike looks great for touring but I have a 1250GS and had enough of Twins, so sorry Honda not for me.
I hope this bike being being quite upright and difficult to pretend it's a sport tourer... means that honda will announce a next generation vfr800/900
I think the only issue I have in Honda is their Pricing. It's kinda Over price compare to it's competitors. But the looks it's spot on though again for the price I'd rather get the cheaper 2022 Suzuki GSX-S1000GT over this bike.😄✌️
A description of the bike stats and equipment does not a review make.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Osm i love bike ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
One of Honda's biggest mistakes..
That amazing 1100 parallel twin should have been put in a roadster it would have been a game winner..
A smaller displacement 800 parallel twin in a middle weight adventure would've been a game winner as well ...
But this thing ! Really Honda !
If depression were a motorcycle, this would be it.
The front fairing looks like something off of a maxi scooter
Why on earth is there no electric adjustment on the screen, thats really poor my 2011 rt has an electrically adjustable screen
So they made a 1100cc scooter :D stunning hud 4:08 odd mini LCD dash below the TFT with no backlighting.... not sure what they smoking at Honda nowdays. Lazy so they didn't integrate all features into the TFT.
A tourer that is born as an unfinished work…
Nope, I just can't take to it. I'd be looking at a Yamaha 900 GT all day long before this.
Did your best try to make it sound like it's a half-decent bike I think they went cheap big want to sell it cheap when people are not going to be very impressed
I would prefer the usual Honda flagship colours. Without! Doesn't really entice.
African twin colours! Honda colours! Where are they?
Poor Visordown
Not what I'd call a thrilling bike
Pretty sure it isn’t for thrills. It’s for comfort. The biker community is an aging one. No gears, smooth delivery of power, heated grips, wind protection, etc etc, that’s what is on the shopping list of the older gentleman. (Me included)
@@dean-does-stuff-81 and me, still on my 84 vf750f it looks like a good, more fun option instead of going whole hog on a Goldwing. I'd still like to hear more about 2 up on it.
@@barrykovalenko no matter the bike, 2 up always changes things. I am not really a fan of taking pillions, although I do it a fair bit. Best bikes I have owned for 2 up riding were gs and gsa, especially the gsa, due to its size of fuel tank. But these days I go for smaller bikes.
I hope to test ride the 1100 later this year, and will most likely take the wife with me, as I also want one for longer rides where I would be with 2.
@@dean-does-stuff-81 thanks Dean, looking forward to seeing that review. I have lots of time to decide as the NT1100 isn't for sale in Canada yet anyways. At this point I'm just getting my Interceptor ready for another season, at least in a few months once the snow is gone.
This will be shaftdrive only when AT is shaftdrive. That may only happen when a smaller AT is built ! I think that is what is coming down the line. That's my guess, mark my words😒
They probably used an old DCT
Honda could not have selected more boring colors. These colors belong on rental cars not motorcycles.
Or a Zimmer frame 😂😂😂😂
God forbid they just bring back the NT700. AT LEAST THAT HAD SHAFT DRIVE! Did I say that loud enough? This is a parts bin special. No thought really had to go into it because it's an African Twin with less ground clearance. The motor sounds like it's trying to shake itself apart. At least the NT700 was smooth. I think they both have about the same horsepower, so how do you explain an extra 400cc's for basically nothing except a higher price?
LET'S GO HONDA! LET'S GO HONDA!
Totally agree, as an NT700 owner I thought this might be a great update of the concept, but with poor economy and no shaft drive they've missed their chance here. To be fair, the NT700 only kicks out about 65 hp, so for 1100, 100hp is that same low level of tune that kept the NT700s going forever!
No electric screen and it looks like a Honda of 10 years ago. It's no ST that is for sure.
Did you just finish up a jog? You sound really out of breath lol
Has Marquez crash tested it yet?
Was it too difficult to actually try to fit your “lid” in the top box rather than just guess it would fit? 😂
would need to be 'present' in some sense in which he clearly wasn't...
No!
Yep, I had the 2012 Honda Cbf1000F for four yrs, nice bike but heavy and under powered during motorway use. That had 106bhp, this new model has less power and heavier in DCT form. Also more cheaply made engine (twin) Will not be looking at this poor effort.
No driveshaft😭😭😭😭
Ride with the balls of your feet on the pegs. Not sticking out in the corners.
It looks a little too much like a scooter, but it is growing on me. I love the Africa Twin motor. As a tourer, it needs a shaft drive to really get my interest and I'd be quite happy to exchange the TFT dash for a more basic LCD display. I have no desire to play with a colour screen when riding a motorcycle.
This bike and other Japanese models are the reason why I drive BMW! Okay it might be a bit more reliable...but boy, its so ugly😑 that it hurts my eyes😏!! Japanese motorbikes just dont have the looks and standards of European manufacturers!! Just hire Italian designer's...Honda you can...and should do better!!
I could tell you're not very impressed
It's not a thing of beauty, the concept pictures were all of a better looking bike. It doesn't matter how good the bike is if it's fugly!!
No.
Honda is quality. But horrible design...The Versys 1000 or the new Suzuki GSX-S1000 GT look way cooler and I think are better overall.
no thanks, I stick with my VFR800!!
I see Honda finally made a bastard son with Kawasaki...
*Cough cough VERSYS 1000 cough cough*
Great bike, but what is honda thinking with those boring terrible colors awful 😖
Those unreliable ugly signals huh
Ugly but good range
Looks like a scooter, sounds like a tractor and its chain driven ffs.
Honda has lost the plot, what a boring bike... and 'this' is montserrat ;) Well said, this is a tourer, not a sport-tourer.
Looks like it ran into a parked car. Eye of the beholder and all that... Probably Honda bullet-proof'ness but nowhere near enough power and torque. Get that 2 up with full luggage and it will be a slug for an 1100cc bike. No likey. Can't see this selling all that well...
Two up & with full luggage, it'll be like a whale.
Looks like a Deauville, sounds like a Deauville, it must be a Deauville.
It really does look exactly the same.
@@lovelessissimo Like a barge.
@@mrsilbo6499 a monochromatic barge with luggage that doesn't hold a helmet.
@@lovelessissimo Or have shaft drive. Another example of Honda giving the market what suits them, rather than what the market wants.
@@mrsilbo6499 Exactly. If they insist on building a boring commuter, at least make it easy to maintain.
DULL, BLAND, BORING, UNINSPIRING👎
Ninja 1000 or This..🤔🤔🤔🤔
Gsxs 1000 gt
Puch maxi!
What an ugly looking bike! I won't ever consider buying it.
What an Underpowered boring ugly useless piece of garbage that no one will buy
