2020 Honda NC750X Overview
Honda NC750X is a super motard motorcycle, displacing 745 cc. Power comes from a Twin, four-stroke engine running Single Overhead Cams (SOHC) valve actuation, a compression ratio of 10.7:1. Bore and stroke come in at 77 x 80 mm. On the performance side, it delivers 68 Nm @ 4750 Revolutions of torque. On the road, the 2020 NC750X tips the scales at 217.3 kg, carries a 14.10-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 830 mm and spans a 1534 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 30.5 kg heavier than the average super motard motorcycle in our database. The full 2020 Honda NC750X spec sheet below covers every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes.
2020 Honda NC750X compared with other bikes in the Super motard category
We checked the recorded figures for the 2020 Honda NC750X against up to 305 bikes in the Super motard category in our database, counting each model once at the model year nearest to this one.
- Only 32 of the other 282 bikes in the Super motard category have a lower seat height than the 830 mm of the NC750X.
- With 745 cc, the NC750X has the joint 70th largest engine displacement of 305 bikes in the Super motard category, 32% above the category average of 564 cc.
- Wet weight of 217.3 kg is heavier than that of 100 of the other 147 bikes in the Super motard category.
- Narrowing the field to the 121 models within five model years of it, the seat height of 830 mm is lower than that of 97 of the other 120.
Versus the 2019 model
The figures we track are unchanged from the 2019 model: peak torque, wet weight, displacement and seat height all match.
2020 NC750X - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
🔧
Fuel injection: Fuel injection means consistent cold starts and clean throttle response without the fussiness of a carbureted setup.
-
🛑
Strong front braking: Stopping power up front is strong thanks to the single disc setup, with plenty of room to upgrade further with braided lines.
-
🛡️
ABS fitted: ABS comes fitted from the factory - one less thing to worry about in a sudden stop on a slippery surface.
Considerations
-
📏
Tall seat height: At 830 mm, shorter riders will likely be on tiptoes at a standstill - worth sitting on one before you buy.
-
⚙️
Chain final drive upkeep: Budget time for routine chain maintenance - it's cheap to replace but needs consistent attention to avoid premature sprocket wear.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Fuelling & injector care
The fuel injection on the NC750X needs little beyond good fuel and periodic use of an injector-cleaner additive - no jetting or float-bowl maintenance to worry about.
Valve clearance checks
With Single Overhead Cams (SOHC) valve gear, the NC750X needs periodic clearance checks; caught early they're a cheap adjustment, left unchecked they accelerate valve seat wear.
Brake disc and pad wear
Braking up front comes from single disc with ABS, hydraulic and two-piston calipers - solid stopping power, with disc and pad wear best checked on the same schedule as tyre changes.
Suspension condition on used examples
The NC750X's suspension runs 41mm telescopic fork at the front. The rear uses Monoshock damper, Pro-Link swingarm. Fork-seal condition and rear linkage play are the two things worth checking before buying used.
Final drive maintenance
The NC750X uses chain final drive, which is cheap to replace but needs regular cleaning, lubrication and tension checks to get a full service life out of the sprockets.
Frame & chassis check
Built around a Diamond; steel pipe, the NC750X's chassis is straightforward to inspect: look for corrosion, cracks or repair welds around stress points like the head-stock and swingarm mounts.
NC750X - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
Before handing over money for a used 2020 Honda NC750X with its 745 cc super motard, cover the fundamentals: service book and oil change history, drivetrain wear, and any sign of oil weeping around the casings. This model runs chain final drive, so check chain slack and sprocket tooth profile specifically - a worn sprocket is a cheaper fix now than after it's chewed up the next chain. Now 6 years old, this super motard is as likely to show age-related wear (perished rubber, seized fasteners, degraded seals) as mileage-related wear. Cold-starting it yourself tells you a lot - a healthy NC750X should catch quickly and settle into a smooth idle.
Oil and filter changes
Nothing protects the NC750X's 745 cc twin, four-stroke like disciplined oil changes - stay on the manufacturer's schedule (roughly every 6,000 km or annually). The sump holds 3.70 litres, so budget for that volume of quality motorcycle-specific engine oil. With a 10.7:1 compression ratio, running the octane grade specified in the manual matters more than on a lower-compression engine. Match the viscosity grade to what the owner's manual specifies, not what's cheapest.
Fuel system care
Fuel injection on the NC750X needs little attention beyond decent fuel and an occasional system-cleaner additive. Anything left standing for three months or more should have its fuel drained and replaced before it varnishes the injectors.
Valve clearance service
Valve clearances are easy to overlook on a used NC750X since a bike out of spec doesn't always feel obviously wrong - but the wear it causes is real. Ask the seller for documentation before assuming it's been done.
