2014 Honda® CTX700Tomorrow’s Touring TwinTalk about a bike that can do it all: Honda®’s new 2014 CTX®700 is your new dream machine. Part of our new CTX® series, the CTX®700 offers the comfort and weather protection of a full fairing, as well as a laid-back riding position with more forward-set hand controls and footpegs. A full range of Honda® Genuine Accessories lets you set it up with saddlebags, backrests, and just about any other touring- or comfort-related feature you could ever want. Best of all, you can get the new CTX®700 in two versions: one with our conventional six-speed manual transmission, and one equipped with our unique automatic transmission, the revolutionary Honda® Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT).InnovationsFull-Coverage FairingWith its new full-coverage fairing and windscreen, the CTX®700 really adds to your comfort on long trips. The fairing upper and lower components are unique to this model, and are integrated with rest of the bike.41mm ForkWith 4.2 inches of travel, the CTX®700 soaks up the bumps and jolts in rough pavement, but also provides excellent handling and superior feedback through the handlebar.Cast Aluminum 17-inch WheelsThe 17-inch wheels give you a wide choice of premium tires to choose from, and really help the CTX®700 handle like a pro on the street. The cast wheels are light and strong too.Electronic Fuel InjectionHonda®’s Electronic Fuel Injection means easy startups on cold mornings and flawless running even at high elevations.Reduced VibrationYou don't need to rattle and shake when riding a motorcycle. The CTX®700's engine counter balancer and rubber-mounted footpegs let you enjoy the ride on your commute or on a weekend getaway.670cc Parallel-Twin EngineWith its cylinders tipped 62 degrees forward for better weight distribution, the CTX®700’s engine is a big step forward in modern powerplant design. The two-cylinder format produces tons of low- and mid-range torque, and the 270-degree-phase crank and uniaxial primary balancer make it smooth, too.Diamond-Shape Steel FrameLight, strong, and with just the right amount of stiffness, the CTX®700’s rigid and compact chassis is the foundation for precise handling.Optional Automatic TransmissionShift with the push of a handlebar-mounted button, or select the CTX®700’s automatic mode and the bike will shift itself. Honda®’s Dual-Clutch Automatic Transmission (DCT) has been a huge hit on our other models, and once you ride a CTX®700 with DCT, you’ll see why.Low Center of GravityThe CTX®700's low center of gravity makes for a more confidence inspiring, all-around riding experience.Pro-Link® Rear SuspensionOffering 4.3 inches of rear-wheel travel and teamed with a Honda® Multi-Action System rear shock, the CTX®700 eats up rough pavement while giving you a smoother ride.Integrated Storage CompartmentThe new CTX®700 offers a convenient utility compartment that’s in the fuel-tank area, making it easy to reach.Relaxed Rider PositionThe CTX®700 was designed for a comfortable, confidence-inspiring ride. The rider triangle was designed to provide a relaxed riding position for most riders, so you won't feel cramped up after just a few miles down the road.Low Seat HeightWith a seat height of just 28.3 inches, the new CTX®700 is confidence-inspiring and comfortable. Combine that with the forward-set controls, and it's easy to flat-foot it at stoplights or in parking lots.
