Positioned in Honda's custom - cruiser motorcycle lineup, the 2018 Honda CTX700N features a 670 cc (40.9 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 48 HP (35 kW) at 6,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 60 Nm (44.3 lb-ft) at 4,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 71.6 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (4,750 rpm) and peak power (6,250 rpm), the engine character is indicating a tractable, stress-free state of tune focused on everyday usability and broad torque delivery.
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 720 mm (28.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 12.4-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.68 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 337 km (209 miles) between fill-ups.
