2013 Honda CTX700T[edit | edit source]
The T version of the CTX700 machine is Honda's idea of a modern middleweight tourer. It retains all the practicality of the base model, with its low, reassuring seat and relaxed, upright cruiser-inspired position, and manual 6-speed transmission.
Still, the CTX700T has ABS as standard trim, adding to the safety of the ride, shortening the stopping distance and adding stability when braking in the wet. The height-adjustable windscreen is also useful for longer hauls as the enhanced weather protection it offers adds to the touring comfort.
