2023 Honda Shadow Phantom

2023 Honda® NC750X DCT

It’s the dilemma we all face as motorcyclists—or at least those of us who haven’t won the lottery. If we can only have one bike, which one comes the closest to being able to do it all, and do it well? Fortunately, there’s an easy answer, and a great bike: the Honda NC750X DCT. The parallel-twin engine is versatile and has plenty of power. The seating position is comfortable no matter where you ride or for how long. The automatic DCT transmission lets you shift when you want to, or lets the bike shift for you. A lockable, weather-resistant, integrated storage compartment makes it practical, and adventure-inspired suspension lets you explore the dirt roads if you’d like. And of course there’s a wide selection of accessories so you can fine-tune it to your own preference. Do it all? Why not—with a Honda NC750X.

Features may include:

• INTEGRATED STORAGE COMPARTMENT

The 2023 NC750X offers a large 23-liter utility compartment that’s big enough to hold most dual-sport full-face helmets with a visor, and then some. Secure and convenient, you'll use it every time you ride.

• Honda SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC)

With Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) you can choose a level which allows some rear-wheel spin—on gravel or dirt for instance—or pick a second level which reduces wheel spin, particularly on slippery roads. It’s a great feature that helps make the NC750X even more versatile.

• PARALLEL-TWIN ENGINE

The NC750X'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.

• LOW-PROFILE WINDSCREEN

The NC750X offers just the right amount of bodywork—enough to offer good wind protection, but not so much that the bike feels heavy or wide.
