- There is a story that Honda may bring scrambler soon.
- The engine is 750cc, like NC750.
Well, what makes the story so strong is the patents filed by Honda in March 2018.
Patents related to placing a riders foot on a frame that consists of body frame, a brake pedal plus a master cylinder, and provides output to brake hydraulic pressure in response to the operation of the brake pedal are supported.
There is a story that there are three new models derived from the 750cc derived from the NC750 series.
It’s NC-derived and has 790cc African twins, naked and classic.
Classic. Scramblers are classic. It’s an NC engine.
We think this has to do with the 790cc engine probably.
Usual information about NC derived models
“In the information, there are details about the difference between the unified platform, including the frame, and the current model is not significant.
The engine is the same, but the recipe is different. DCT seems to be more comfortable to ride in town. “
“There is information that there are three types apart from the current S / X / ADV.”
“Price may not increase significantly.”
To summarize the current information.
- There is a patent that looks like a scrambler based on Rebel.
- Two-cylinder scrambler for Europe may come out.
- Three models, those are NC twin 790cc African twins, naked and classic derived models of NC system share platform.
- NC engine scrambler appears.
It is an NC-derived scrambler.
- The engine of Honda’s new scrambler is an NC type 790 cc 2 cylinder engine.
- The frame is also an NC type. Whether it is a new frame or a current frame is a mystery.
- The frame is NC, but we think the details are bound to change. The tail is up in the current frame.
According to the current information, it is to be an NC-based scrambler.
We think the engine is a new 790cc, but the frame is a mystery.
The new NC750 series of the 2021 model is a full model change. So the frame may be renewed. By the way, this is the current NC frame. S / X / Integra frame.
“Specially designed frame.”

Now, X-ADV is a unique design. The swingarm is also different. But the base is the same.
We feel that the new NC system and the frame are going to be new.
It is NC system, but it is known for now
- NC800S
- NC800X
- X-ADV
- Integra (?)
- CRF800L Africa Twin
- Naked
- Scrambler
Has 7 different flavors all together.
We also think that African twins and scramblers are a bit unreasonable with the current frame.
It’s weird looking at the tail end with a scrambler. So the CTX700 was designed exclusively for the rear frame.
If you think so, the new NC800 system has also the current frame, and it is a pattern that only the corresponding model changes the rear frame.
Or is it a new frame based on the current base, the rear frame may come as a bolt-on type? However, there is no basis. So this still remains a question.
By the way, there was a patent based on a Rebel frame and a bolt-on rear frame. We thought this patent was related to the new scrambler, but is it for another model? Or camouflage? We do not know.
