Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda NT1100 DCT 2023

The Honda NT1100 DCT presents itself as a really good touring motorbike. The ride comfort, the DCT transmission and the great Apple Carplay integration ensure that you enjoy riding the motorbike far and wide.

Extensive standard equipment

Really good wind and weather protection

Confident engine

Very suitable for long distances and comfortable

Apple Carplay and Android Auto integration

Suspension setup fits well with the character of the motorbike.

No IMU

limited suspension adjustment options, which reduces the machine's range of use

windshield adjustment requires a lot of effort

engine and DCT response in combination still take some getting used to and sometimes seem rough at first glance.
