2017 Honda NC 750X / DCT Overview

For 2017, Honda offers the NC 750X / DCT as a scooter motorcycle with 745 cc on tap. The 2017 Honda NC 750X / DCT is built around a Four stroke , Parallel twin, SOHC, 4 valves per cylinder engine, a compression ratio of 10.7:1. Out on the road, the NC 750X / DCT delivers 40.3 kW @ 6250 rpm of peak power and 68 Nm of torque. In everyday use, the 2017 NC 750X / DCT tips the scales at 220 kg, carries a 14.1-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 830 mm and spans a 1540 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 22.3 kg heavier than the average scooter motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2017 Honda NC 750X / DCT spec sheet below.

2017 NC 750X / DCT - Pros & Cons

Strengths

  • Strong power output: Peak output on the NC 750X / DCT is 40.3 kW @ 6250 rpm and 68 Nm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
  • Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.

Considerations

  • Tall seat height: A 830 mm seat puts flat-footing out of reach for a lot of riders - sit on it in person before committing.
  • Chain final drive upkeep: A chain drivetrain is the most common setup in its class, but it's also the one that demands the most regular hands-on maintenance.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Cooling system servicing

With Liquid-cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.

Fuelling & injector care

Fuelling on the NC 750X / DCT comes from PGM-FI electronic fuel injection. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.

Brake disc and pad wear

Single 320 mm hydraulic disc 3 piston calipers and sintered metal pads up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.

Suspension condition on used examples

Suspension duties are handled by 41 mm telescopic forks up front and Single monoshock damper at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.

Final drive maintenance

Chain final drive on the NC 750X / DCT means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.

Frame & chassis check

The Rigid tube steel diamond chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.

Handling the weight at a standstill

The NC 750X / DCT's 220 kg kerb weight is worth factoring into how you handle it at a standstill - parking-lot manoeuvres need a bit more deliberate technique than on a lighter machine.

NC 750X / DCT - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

A pre-purchase check on the 2017 Honda NC 750X / DCT should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept NC 750X / DCT settles to a smooth idle within seconds.

Oil and filter changes

Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a NC 750X / DCT's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.

Fuel system care

Injector systems like the NC 750X / DCT's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
