Honda NC750X vs Kawasaki Eliminator 500

ESTIMATED SIMULATION

Run the comparison →

The Honda NC750X (2026) and the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda NC750X is a adventure bike with 745 cc, 57.8 hp and 226 kg; the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 is a cruiser with 451 cc, 44.8 hp and 176 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 192.0 hp/ton versus 178.4 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda NC750X is 8% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda NC750X covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 4.49 s and the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 in 4.66 s; the Honda NC750X is quicker by 0.17 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 41.4 m for the Honda NC750X (with ABS) and 44.7 m for the Kawasaki Eliminator 500 (with ABS). The Honda NC750X stops 3.3 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 163 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 163 km/h (manufacturer claim).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda NC750X and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Kawasaki Eliminator 500.

Data sources and calibration

Specifications: the sources below (manufacturer pages, plus road-test or spec sites where the manufacturer gives no figure). Acceleration, braking and top speed: Moto Kıyas physics simulation (power/torque curve, gearing, drag, traction and wheelie limits, ABS assumption), calibrated against published road tests where available. Estimated, not measured.
