That's the NC700X. Lots of good ideas in that bike, however, I'd want to ride it before making a decision on it... I've heard it may not have much to speak of on the top end -- in fact I think it redlines at 6500rpm, but low and mid-range torque is supposedly pretty good (and that's where *I* live, as opposed to a track acceptable bike)My neighbor came over this evening to show me his brand new bike a Honda NC700. Seems like a really awesome bike, lightweight, great mpg, plenty of cargo room, and can't beat the $6999 price on a new bike. After seeing it and sitting on it maybe time for a change?
I keep hearing "bigger bike" "scooter like" "not a good sport bike" when people talk about the NC700x..
Umm people.. It's an adventure bike for touring with off road capability.. It's really light and nimble and extremely smooth for a parallel twin. Seriously don't bash it until you test it. I did and now I'm confused more than ever on what bike to get next.. That sucker is awesome! Oh and don't go for the DCT.. Manual tranny all the way!
i read reviews on this bike in motorcyclist magazine a few months back, before it was released to the US they said it was basically a cb 750 nothing more nothing less and the ride was lacking there of. id go with everyone else's advise give the thing a good test ride or something before you fall in love with the concept of the bike rather the function. the bike is a neat idea but it sounds like a re invented nighthawk brought from the grave and mixed with some scooter parts lol
