Honda Vision 110 generations: KZL vs K44 vs K2C — identify yours before ordering
The Vision 110 is a hugely popular commuter, and because it has looked broadly similar for over a decade, it catches a lot of people out when ordering parts. There are three distinct generations, and body panels do not interchange between them — a side panel for a 2014 bike simply won't fit a 2018 one, even though the two scooters look alike in photos. Most wrong orders we see on the Vision come down to buyers matching a part by appearance rather than by generation.
The good news is that Honda makes this easy to get right, because the generation code is written into every part number. Here's how it works.
The quick year guide
KZL: 2011–2016. The original Vision 110 (also sold as the NSC110) ran from 2011 to around 2016. Parts for this bike carry KZL in the middle of the Honda part number. If your Vision was first registered between 2011 and 2016, this is almost certainly your bike: Honda Vision 110 KZL 2011–2016 parts.
K44: 2017–2020. The updated Vision arrived around 2017 with revised styling and, depending on year and market, updates for Euro emissions rules. Its parts carry K44 in the part number, and its panels, lights and trim are specific to this version. For 2017–2020 bikes, use this section: Honda Vision 110 K44 2017–2020 parts.
K2C: 2021–2025. The current-shape Vision launched in 2021 with new bodywork and, depending on year and market, features like Smart Key. Its parts carry K2C in the part number and nothing from the earlier bodywork carries over. For 2021-on bikes, start here: Honda Vision 110 K2C 2021–2025 parts.
How to identify your Vision 110
The single most reliable method is the part number on the component you're replacing. Honda part numbers follow a pattern like 64301-K2C-V00 — the middle section is the model code, so 64301-K2C-... is a 2021-on part, while the same panel for an earlier bike would read -K44- or -KZL- instead. Most panels have the part number moulded or printed on the inside face, so it's worth pulling the old part off (or looking behind it) before you order. If the number on your old part and the number in our listing share the same middle code, you're in the right generation.
If you can't get at the part number, your V5C (log book) will do the job in most cases — the date of first registration maps onto the year ranges above. As with any model changeover, be a little careful with bikes registered early in 2017 or 2021, as a small number may be old stock of the previous shape. When in doubt, the VIN on the frame (and on the V5C) settles it, and you're welcome to send that to us to check.
One thing worth repeating: the three generations do not share body panels. However close two parts look in photos, a KZL panel will not fit a K44 bike, and neither will fit a K2C. Matching the code is what matters.
Still not sure?
If your registration date sits near a changeover year, or the part you're replacing has no visible number, don't take a chance on it. Send us your registration or VIN through our fitment help page and we'll confirm the correct generation and part before you order. It's quicker than processing a return — for you and for us.
