The brand new breed
Showing off the muscular V4 engine to the full, matched with aggressive angles and surfaces, the CTX1300 rolls a completely fresh attitude onto the tarmac. It’s built for all-day riding, with the low 735mm seat height and wide, swept-back handlebars giving complete control and a comfortable riding position. A short windscreen adds cut-down style and practicality, while dual rear panniers integrate seamlessly.
You can plug in and play an iPod*, MP3 player or smartphone through the twin-speaker stereo. Controlled through tank-mounted buttons, track information is displayed centrally on the dash and Bluetooth® connectivity enables use of a helmet headset.

Easily tailoring the ride to suit conditions and load, twin rear shocks work through a 690mm aluminium swingarm and feature mechanical spring preload adjustment.
Dual front 310mm discs are gripped by three-piston calipers, as is the 316mm rear disc. Honda’s C-ABS system links the front and rear brakes, evenly applying the front when the rear is used for improved stopping efficiency.
Honda V4 muscle is the star of this show. Brimming with low and mid-range torque it’s tuned to respond instantly to rider input and deliver relaxed highway cruising, while laying out a pleasing soundtrack through its twin exhausts.
43mm inverted fork provides supple and well-damped control.
Power to enjoy
The CTX1300’s 1,261cc longitudinally mounted 90° 8-valve V4 engine delivers an attention-grabbing 106Nm torque at just 4,500rpm, with crisp throttle response from advanced PGM-FI fuel injection. Rapid roll-on acceleration results from a mere flick of the wrist and tall ratios in the five-speed gearbox ensure a relaxed feel when cruising. Using uneven pipe lengths, the 4-2-2 exhaust system plays the V4 engine’s soulful tune as a backdrop to every ride. And constantly managing rear wheel grip is Honda's Traction Control System (TCS), seamlessly cutting power if it senses imminent loss of traction.
Your destination is waiting
Ready for the long haul or happy cruising the city streets, the CTX1300’s abilities are broad. Providing massive strength and stability the steel double-cradle frame is guided by sturdy 43mm telescopic forks. The riding position is laid-back and long, just where you need it to be to watch the scenery slip by. It’s a comfortable motorcycle for a wide range of rider sizes and standard-fit 5-stage heated grips and Honda’s clever computer-controlled self-cancelling indicators add a touch of comfort and technology to your experience.
