I have an NC700X. I'd rate its performance not in racing but in day to day functionality. It does everything pretty good and I'm addicted to that storage compartment.
Bought 1 today and absolutely love it . Has less than half the horsepower my old bike has and I don’t miss it . Brilliant beautiful sensible practical bike
Bought one yesterday. Just like Christopher Dunbar, mine is 1/2 the horsepower of my last bike. About equal torque so that’s awesome. Love this bike. Mine is a 2012 with only 7,000 miles.
The Honda NC bikes are a jack of all trades 👍 Hands down the best all rounder bike on the market. I like them so much that I have two. A 2013 NC700S, with now 105.000km and a 2014 NC750S with now 32000 km. I appreciate your nice review 👍 Safe rides 👍🏍
@@tobianbuijze8835 I don't see why not. In all reality one can start actually on any bike given that you are a cautious learner, possessing the discipline to keep your ego in check. That being said , if you are only planning short trips in and around the neighborhood an even lighter bike might be a good decision. The NC bikes do have the weight of a full size motorcycle even though they have less horsepower than similar bikes. They aren't underpowered since they have a lot of torque due to the long stroke piston travel, so don't get me wrong about this, but of course other bikes do have more power, that's a fact. The way the power is delivered on these bikes I do consider them actually pretty suitable long time companion under all conditions. Still have both of mine and I won't replace them any time soon Safe rides 🙏👍🏍
@Watson2108 The engine of the 750 does rev a bit smother due to a balance shaft. Does the 750 accelerate a little more powerful ? Yes. But it is so insignificant in my experience that it will more come down to rider skills. I have changed on both bikes the sprocket settings. 15/43 on the NC700S and 16/46 on the NC750S. Original is 16/43 and 17/43 respectively. Safe rides 🙏 🏍 👍
@@Herzankerkreuz67 Thank you. I would have to restrict the 750 as I am still on my A2 license and then the difference would probably be zero. I don´t really see the point in getting my big license right now for an extra 7 hp or I could just ride it unrestricted. No one would know probably. But again, riding without a license for a 7hp gain is just as stupid...
I have a 2012 NC700X Honda for sale. Runs like new, recent service, new tires/chain/battery. Has a windscreen. 18,000 miles. 65-70mpg. Listed for $3500. Obo.

Congrats on the new bike!
What a proper work horse

What is the performance difference like between these two? Is the 750 really noticeably quicker?

Would love to hear more about your experiences running deliveries on the NC. Been thinking about that myself.
If the tires were just a tat bit wider, I would be in love. I'm hearing a lot of folks say it has no power, is that true?

Did you get it sold?
@@eighty7nines I still have it. Busy with a divorce and haven't gotten around to selling it. Where do you live?
Great video bro. Is the seat high on 700 lower than in 750?
Dude you must make bank doing Postmates in Hollywood area on that thing.
RPMs wind out too quick?
