Its concept model CB4X was introduced in 2019, followed by patent work in 2020. It was believed to be named CB1100X, but the trademark revealed that it was to be called NT1100 and this confirms the launch and name of this bike. Its overall look seems to be inspired by the CB4X with half the fairing visible, the engine part has been completely exposed.

It has been spotted testing several times in other countries, with the full reveal recently made for the European market. Now whether this bike will be brought to the Indian market or not, has not been confirmed yet. Not long ago, the company brought a small adventure bike to India. The Honda CB200X has been launched in India at a price of Rs 1.44 lakh, which is based on the company's Hornet 2.0.
