NT1100 DCT Electronic Suspension 2025

The New Touring Era

The NT1100 is a smart, sophisticated and thoroughly modern touring motorcycle. And we’ve just given it an upgrade. The twin-cylinder engine now packs more low to mid-range torque for improved acceleration. A sporty new fairing mounts the easy adjust screen and LED headlights with new DRL indicators, whilst a new Intertial Measurement Unit (IMU) control is at the heart of the updated electronic package adapting the bikes handling to the ride. The improved reaction of the optional DCT at low speeds also makes a real difference, as does the new choice of Electronic Suspension (ES) which takes the NT1100 to another place. Absolute riding perfection.

The perfect travel companion

It’s the detail upgrades that make the new NT1100 such a perfect long-term travelling companion and all have been driven by the people that matter – NT1100 owners. The new dynamic front fairing wraps the rider in elegant high-speed aerodynamic efficiency, increasing wind protection and reducing fatigue. It’s also now possible to adjust the 5-level screen while seated (and stationary) with one hand. Both pannier lids are deeper so there’s more room in each, enough for a full-face helmet. And the front mudguard now extends an extra 150mm to the rear, acting as a splashguard to channel water away. The large 20L Fuel Tank delivers the freedom of long-range riding, with a potential 400km between fill-ups possible.

Performance for all occasions

When you need torque, you need torque. Especially overtaking carrying a pillion and luggage. So, the 1,084cc OHC twin-cylinder engine has 7% more torque, off the bottom and right through the middle. More mid-range power, too thanks to a higher 10.5:1 compression ratio, new crankshaft and conrods. Throttle By Wire (TBW) response has been optimised for linearity, giving smoother response to match the performance boost. The difference in acceleration, through the gears, is immediately obvious. The twin-cylinder engine is efficient too, you can cover up to 20km per litre of fuel. And the exhaust note beats out a refreshed, pulsing rhythm – the perfect backdrop to a long ride.
