ENGINEER YOUR ESCAPE
Honda’s NT1100 channels the legendary Africa Twin’s Unicam® parallel twin — re-tuned for performance touring — into a chassis that balances sport-bike responsiveness with longdistance comfort, all backed with Honda reliability, so you can turn miles into memories.
New for 2026, a Gray Metallic colorway complements its sleek bodywork, excellent ergonomics, and optional accessory luggage, so it looks as good as every ride feels.
Any road, every time
Welcome to the world of modern sport touring, and the new 2025 Honda NT1100. Using the same versatile engine architecture of our legendary Africa Twin, the NT1100 reimagines it in an all-new chassis designed with both sportbike responsiveness and touring-bike comfort.
Add in sleek bodywork, excellent ergonomics, optional detachable saddlebags and a generous fuel capacity, and the new NT1100 will take you on the roads less travelled — the ones that provide the biggest rewards.

De enige grens? Jouw eigen verbeelding.
A new breed of Honda tourer makes its debut.
Taking the heart of the CRF1100L Africa Twin as a starting point, the NT1100 builds on the platform to offer comfortable, agile, enjoyable performance. A low seat height and sharp steering geometry combine with high specification suspension to create a sporting package. 5way height and angle adjustable screen and upper/lower wind deflectors ensure highspeed aero efficiency and outstanding weather protection; cruise control is standard, as are slim panniers and heated grips.
Rider aids include 3 default riding modes, 2 user custom options, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) and Wheelie Control. Radialmount fourpiston front calipers provide the braking power, 120/7017 and 180/5517 front and rear tyres the grip.
A 6.5inch TFT touch screen rounds out a premium specification and features Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® connectivity.

Welcome to the new touring era
That feeling. When the bike’s packed and you’re ready to go. There’s nothing else like it.
Ready to travel? The new NTI 100 offers everything you need in one motorcycle. It’s a superb GT design — for two — and features full wind protection, adjustable screen and panniers. And it’s also loaded with a powerful, twin-cylinder engine, comprehensive electronics package and the option of our unique six-speed Dual Clutch Transmission.
The NTI 100 is also built agile for the demands of the city with light, easy handling and long travel suspension. The riding position is designed to offer the choice of engaging with sporting intent — or sitting back, relaxing, and watching the scenery roll by.
Equipment levels, as you’d expect, are high and include smartphone connectivity, cruise control and heated grips. Add premium riding technology — like Daytime Running Lights (DRC) — and there’s only one thing left to consider. Just where, and how far, do you want to go?
The Honda NT1100 was introduced as a new sport-touring motorcycle for the 2022 model year, combining the 1,084 cc parallel-twin engine derived from the CRF1100L Africa Twin with a road-focused chassis, comprehensive electronics and long-distance touring equipment.
The NT1100 was available with either a conventional 6-speed manual transmission or Honda’s 6-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT). The specifications below are specifically for the 2022/2023 Honda NT1100 DCT, unless otherwise stated.
Honda’s official 2022 and 2023 specifications confirm that the 2022 and 2023 NT1100 are mechanically very similar. The 2023 model continued with the same 1,084 cc engine, 75 kW output, 104 Nm torque and DCT configuration.
Detailed information regarding the maintenance and servicing of the Honda NT1100 can be found in the Periodic maintenance overview.
Data regarding the tightening torques of all relevant parts are listed in the Tightening torques overview.

Transmission
Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT)
The NT1100 DCT uses Honda’s electronically controlled six-speed Dual Clutch Transmission.
The system uses two wet multi-plate clutch assemblies. One clutch operates the odd-numbered gears and the other operates the even-numbered gears.
| Specification | NT1100 DCT 2022/2023 |
| Transmission | 6-speed Dual Clutch Transmission |
| Clutch type | Dual wet multi-plate clutch |
| Clutch operation | Electronically/hydraulically controlled |

| 3rd | 1.375 |
| 4th | 1.133 |
| 5th | 0.972 |
| 6th | 0.882 |
The DCT allows the next gear to be pre-selected while the motorcycle is still using the current gear. During a shift, torque transfer is progressively moved from one clutch to the other.
This provides very fast and smooth gear changes without the need for a conventional clutch lever.
