Luxury Tourer or Upscale Commuter? Why Not Both?
Introducing the Honda NT700V, newly arrived here in the U.S., and the perfect combination of cross-town commuter and cross-country capability that’s been wowing Europeans for over a decade. Think of it this way: If the ST1300 had a little brother, it would be the NT700V. Plenty nimble to eat up around-town urban assaults, and plenty plush and feature-packed for the luxurious long haul.
From this machine’s potent, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected 680cc V-twin, disc brakes (with optional ABS) and bulletproof shaft drive to its integrated saddlebags and weather-cheating adjustable windscreen and bodywork, the NT700V rolls out as the ultimate light-weight tourer/commuter for both entry-level and seasoned riders alike. In other words, the best of both worlds.
Fuel-Injected Fun. The NT700V’s electronic fuel injection system delivers superb throttle response and performance every time out, which means hassle-free fun for you.
Baggage Claim. Sleek, integrated saddlebags provide ample, lockable storage for your totables, whether you’re headed to the market—or Maine.
